As per the draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) filed late Tuesday, net proceeds from the issue will be utilised for the reduction of aggregate outstanding borrowings of the company on a consolidated basis, acquisition of land or land development rights, and general corporate purposes.

The real estate development company's aggregate outstanding borrowings on a consolidated basis, stood at Rs 1,8662.19 crore, as of December 2020.

This will be the third time the Mumbai-based developer is proposing an IPO after attempting the same in 2009 and 2018 but deferred those plans due to unfavourable market conditions.

The company may decide to undertake a pre-IPO placement of Rs 500 crore subject to consultation with merchant bankers. Investment banking firms such as Axis Capital, ICICI Securities, Edelweiss Securities, IIFL Securities, SBI Capital, JM Financial, Yes Securities, Bank of Baroda Capital, and JP Morgan are the advisors for the IPO.
