Suraksha Diagnostic raises ₹254 crore from anchor investors ahead of ₹846-crore IPO
Integrated diagnostic chain Suraksha Diagnostic Ltd on Thursday (November 28) said it has mobilised 254 crore from anchor investors, a day before the opening of its initial share-sale for public subscription.

The top anchor investors in the IPO included Nippon India Mutual Fund, Kotak MF, Aditya Birla Sun Life MF, Quant MF and Carnelian Bharat Amritkaal Fund, according to a circular uploaded on BSE’s website.

The company has allotted 57.57 lakh equity shares to 16 funds at 441 apiece, which is also the upper end of the price band. This aggregates the transaction size to 254 crore, the circular showed.

The 846-crore initial share sale will open for public subscription on November 29 and conclude on December 3. The shares will be available in the price range of 420 to 441 apiece.

The Kolkata-headquartered company’s IPO consists of an Offer for Sale (OFS) of 19,189,330 equity shares worth 846.25 crore, at the upper end of the price band, by promoters and investor shareholders, with no fresh issue component.

Under the OFS, promoters Somnath Chatterjee, Ritu Mittal, and Satish Kumar Verma; and investors OrbiMed Asia II Mauritius Ltd, Munna Lal Kejriwal and Santosh Kumar Kejriwal will offload shares. Since the issue is completely an OFS, the company will not receive any proceeds and all the funds will go to the selling shareholders.

Explaining the reason for going public, the company said it is aimed at achieving the benefit of listing equity shares on the stock exchanges and carrying out OFS for the selling shareholders. At the upper end of the price band, the company’s market capitalisation stands at around 2,300 crore.
