Shares of Suzlon Energy Ltd will be in focus on Thursday morning after the board of wind turbine maker announced launching of a qualified institutional placement (QIP) offering to raise as much as Rs 2,000 crore. The Suzlon board on August 9 decided to undertake qualified institutions placement of equity shares to an extent of up to Rs 1,500 crore, with an option to retain oversubscription of up to Rs 500 crore.
Suzlon Energy said its committee set the floor price of the QIP at Rs 18.44 a piece.

In a separate stock exchange filing, Suzlon said: "We wish to inform you that a meeting of the Securities Issue Committee of the board of directors of the Company is scheduled to be held on Monday, 14th August 2023 to, inter alia, consider and approve the Issue price, including a discount, if any thereto, as permitted under the SEBI ICDR Regulations, for the Equity Shares to be allotted to qualified institutional buyers, pursuant to the Issue."
The proceeds of the issue would be utilised on debt repayment and general corporate purposes. Last month, Suzlon Energy registered a 96 per cent decline in consolidated net profit at Rs 101 crore in the April-June quarter. The company had registered a consolidated net profit of Rs 2,433 crore in the year-ago quarter, an investors' presentation showed.
