NTPC’s OFS subscribed by 1.7 times

08 Feb 2013 Evaluate

State-owned electric utilities company NTPC’s Offer For Sale (OFS) received good response from the investors, thereby putting the government on track to meet its fundraising target to reduce the budget deficit. Through the OFS, the government divested 9.5%, or 783 million shares, in the country’s largest power utility and raised about Rs 11,500 crore at about Rs 146 a share (the average price of most bids). However, the issue attracted bids for about 1.3 billion shares, worth about Rs 20,000 crore, about 1.7 times the shares on offer.

The auction was the biggest since last year’s Rs 12,750-crore ONGC share auction and comes right after Oil India’s share sale worth Rs 3,100 crore last week and Rs 6,000-crore share sale in mining company NMDC in December.

NTPC is the largest power generating company in the country. It has also diversified into hydro power, coal mining, power equipment manufacturing, oil & gas exploration, power trading & distribution.
