Let us first focus on the promoters participating in the OFS portion.

Other key shareholders will offload 10,39,450 shares as part of the offer for sale. The OFS will not dilute the capital or the EPS but only lead to change in ownership, increase in public float and enable listing of the company.

3) The Rs.200 crore fresh issue component of the BVG India IPO will be predominantly used to repay / prepay debt of the company. In fact, more than 90% of the fresh issue amount or Rs.180 crore will be utilized by the company only to repay / prepay the borrowings. The balance amount will be allocated for general corporate purposes and other routine working capital expenses.

4) The company has been backed by UK based private equity major 3i Group PLC, which has been one of the early investors in the company. The IPO will allocate 50% of the total IPO allocation to the qualified institutional buyers (QIB).

However, this QIB portion will be reduced to the extent of the anchor allocation portion done ahead of the IPO opening. The IPO will allocate 15% for non-institutional investors (NIIs) also known as high net worth investors (HNIs. The balance 35% will be allocated to retail investors i.e. individuals and HUFs investing up to a maximum of Rs.2 lakhs in a single application.

However, this fall is more because facilities management is a contact intensive business and tends to get impacted in such times. Similarly, the net profits for FY21 stood at Rs.86.11 crore lower than Rs.122 crore in the previous year, again due to the impact of fixed costs not getting adequately absorbed in the low volume business shift. 

7) The IPO of BVG India Ltd will be lead managed by ICICI Securities, HSBC Securities and Capital Markets, and JM Financial Services. They will act as the book running lead managers or BRLMs to the issue. Link Intime India Private Limited has been appointed as registrars for the issue.
