The IPO of the country's largest insurance company LIC has got the approval of market regulator SEBI. A report quoted sources as saying that SEBI has given a green signal to raise funds through IPO. According to the draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) filed with Sebi, the government will sell a 5 percent stake in the life insurance firm to meet its disinvestment target of Rs 78,000 crore in the current fiscal.
Documents submitted on February 13
The government will sell more than 31 crore equity shares of LIC and through this, the company plans to raise Rs 63000 crore. Let us inform you here that on behalf of LIC, the government had submitted DRHP i.e. IPO proposal with SEBI on February 13. Due to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, there was also a possibility that the government may miss the disinvestment target this year and LI's IPO may be postponed to the next financial year.
10% share for policyholders
As per the documents, a portion of LI's IPO will be reserved for anchor investors. Apart from this, up to 10 percent of the LIC IPO issue size will be reserved for policyholders and five percent for employees. Let us tell you that this IPO of LIC will be the biggest in the history of the country so far.
