The primary market is gearing up for a bustling week as a total of seven new public issues are slated to open for subscription between August 31 and September 3. This lineup features three mainboard offerings and four small and medium enterprise issues, giving market participants plenty of choices to deploy their capital. Analysts expect strong retail and institutional participation, particularly for prominent names backed by high-profile investors and celebrities.
Purple Style Labs IPO Details and Backing
At the forefront of next week's offerings is the Purple Style Labs IPO, the parent entity behind the luxury fashion destination Pernia's Pop-Up Shop. The company intends to mobilize approximately 680 crore rupees entirely through a fresh issue of shares, meaning there is no offer-for-sale component included in this public offering. Adding considerable weight to its market appeal, the firm boasts prominent backers and investors such as Salman Khan and Sachin Tendulkar.
The subscription window for Purple Style Labs will open on August 31 and conclude on September 2. The management has established a price band ranging from 546 rupees to 575 rupees per equity share. Axis Capital is acting as the book-running lead manager for the issue, and the equity shares are proposed for listing on both the BSE and the NSE.
Deepa Jewellers and Rays of Belief Public Issues
Another major highlight is the Deepa Jewellers IPO, which opens for subscription on September 1 and closes on September 3. The price band has been fixed at 168 rupees to 177 rupees per share. The total issue size stands at approximately 459.72 crore rupees, which includes a fresh issue worth 250 crore rupees and an offer for sale amounting to 209.72 crore rupees. This makes it the largest fresh IPO opening next week in terms of overall issue size, with Emkay Global Financial Services managing the offering.
Concurrently, the Rays of Belief IPO will also open on September 1 and remain accessible until September 3. The firm aims to raise 125 crore rupees through a fresh issuance of shares without any secondary selling component. The price band is set between 227 rupees and 239 rupees per share. Mefcom Capital Markets is serving as the lead manager, with proposed listings on the BSE and NSE.
