Bharti Infratel, a subsidiary of telecom operator Bharti Airtel is planning to use its Initial Public Offering (IPO) proceeds to set up 4,813 new telecom transmission towers and to upgrade the existing ones. The company is planning to raise about Rs 5,000 crore through the issue and has also filed the Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) with SEBI.

The IPO would constitute an offer of 18.89 crore shares, comprising a fresh issue of 14.62 crore equity shares by the company and an offer for sale of 4.26 crore shares by existing shareholders. It has proposed to use about Rs 1,086 crore of the proceeds for installation of the 4,813 towers across seven circles. Bharti Infratel had also proposed to deploy about Rs 1,214 crore of the net proceeds for up-gradation and replacement of existing towers. This is to enhance capacity for additional sharing of towers.

As of June 30, Bharti Infratel, which holds a 42-per cent stake in independent tower firm Indus Towers, owns and operates 33,446 towers across 11 circles. Private equity investors including Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co, Macquarie Group, Citigroup, Investment Corporation of Dubai and AIF Capital own a combined 13 percent stake in Bharti Infratel.
