PRE-IPO LOCK-IN PERIOD EXPIRY FOR 46 COMPANIES TO RELEASE $12 BILLION WORTH OF SHARES
A total of 46 companies will see their pre-listing shareholder lock-in period being lifted between June 24 and September 30. This is likely to result in freeing up of shares amounting to $11.9 billion in the secondary market.
The value represents the opening of the lock-up shares held by pre-IPO investors, including promoters, anchor investors and others. However, all of these shares may not be available for sale immediately in the secondary market as a sizable portion of these shares are also held by the promoter group.
The estimates encompass IPOs listed up to June 19, according to a report by Nuvama Alternative & Quantitative Research. It is to be noted the lock-in period is different for different classes of investors.
Jupiter Life Line Hospitals' one-year share lock-in period ends on September 13, and 11 million equity shares of the company, or 16% of the total outstanding shares, will be released.
Similarly, the one-year lock-in period for JSW Infrastructure ends on September 30, and 127.5 crore shares will be available for trading.
