The indicative issue price has been set at ₹1,201 per share, a 6.4% discount to Thursday’s closing price, and a 1.15% discount to the SEBI floor price, sources said.

Kalpataru Projects, in a stock exchange filing on Thursday, December 12, said its QIP committee at its meeting approved the floor price for the issue at ₹1,214.98 per share.

The company is looking to dilute 5.13% equity through this institutional share sale. The proceeds from the fund raise will be used for part or in full repayment / pre-payment of certain outstanding borrowings and for general corporate purposes, the source said.

There will be a 30-day lock in period post the issue of shares. ICICI Securities Ltd. and Avendus Capital Pvt. Ltd. are the book running lead managers for the share sale.

Kalpataru Projects reported a 39.7% increase in net profit at ₹125.6 crore for the September quarter. In the same period last year, the company posted a net profit of ₹90 crore.

Revenue from operations increased 9.1% to ₹4,930 crore against ₹4,518.4 crore in Q2 of the preceding fiscal, led by robust execution and healthy order backlog.

At the operating level, EBITDA jumped 83.8% to ₹438.3 crore in the second quarter of this fiscal over ₹238.4 crore in the year-ago period.

The EBITDA margin stood at 8.9% in the reporting quarter compared to 5.3% in the corresponding period in the previous fiscal. EBITDA is earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation.

Kalpataru Projects shares ended 2.42% lower at ₹1,280 per share on Thursday, December 12. The stock has gained 78.73% this year, so far.
