Where your money goes

Only the fresh issue reaches the company. The offer for sale is existing shareholders selling their own stock — that money goes to them, not the business.

Fresh issue — to the company93 Cr
Offer for sale — to existing holders33 Cr

A red herring prospectus is filed before the price is fixed, so it states share counts rather than rupee amounts. derived: shares x cut-off price Rs43. Checked: exchange issue size Rs125 Cr vs derived Rs125.5 Cr (0.4% apart).

What the fresh money funds

The stated uses of the net proceeds, from the prospectus’s Objects of the Issue table. Only the fresh issue funds these — the offer-for-sale money goes to the selling shareholders above.

Funding the capital expenditure towards purchase of plant and machinery55 Cr
Repayment and/or pre-payment, in part or full, of certain borrowings availed by our Company15 Cr

As stated in the prospectus. “General corporate purposes” is the part with no committed use; SEBI caps it at 25% of the issue.

The price they’re asking

From the prospectus’s own “Basis for Issue Price” — the issuer’s earnings multiple against the peers it chose to compare itself with.
