No QIP for cos with sub-25% float

30 Dec 2010 Evaluate

The market regulator has mandated that companies with less than 25% public float will have to raise funds through a public share sale and not through private placement to institutions, a move aimed at widening retail holding and limiting stock price manipulation. Public share sale takes months to complete, leaving scope for wild price fluctuations, unlike institutional sales that happen in two weeks.

Barring companies from doing a private placement may affect share prices of as many as 120 companies. The recent circular from the Securities & Exchange Board of India (Sebi) could dampen share prices of companies such as real estate developer DLF and Wipro that have to comply with the 25% public float rules by June 2013.Firms that may face this hurdle include Jet Airways, Oracle Financial, and Gillette, in which promoters hold more than 75%. In the last two years, 108 companies raised Rs 60,970 crore through private placements, including Rs 28,339 crore in 2010 alone.
