10 Sep 2020 Evaluate

Indiabulls Housing Finance is aiming to raise up to Rs 1,000 crore through a qualified institutional placement (QIP) launched on September 9, 2020 as well as partial divestment of its stake in UK-based OakNorth Bank in tranches. In this, Rs 500 crore (about $68.13 million) each is targeted to be raised through the QIP and divestment in OakNorth Bank in next two-three days.  The committee will meet on September 14 to approve the issue price, including a discount, if any, for the equity shares to be allotted to the qualified institutional buyers (QIBs). The intent of the QIP is to augment the long-term resources of the company and maintain sufficient liquidity for meeting funding requirements for its business activities.

Indiabulls Housing Finance is the second largest private housing finance company in India, regulated by the National Housing Bank (NHB).
