Here are seven interesting facts to know about Droom Technology IPO


1. Droom Technology is planning an IPO of Rs.3,000 crore comprising of a fresh issue of Rs.2,000 crore and an offer for sale of Rs.1,000 crore.

Droom is a digital start-up that offers an agnostic platform for buyers to leverage content, comparison and commerce.

2. Currently, the promoters, Sandeep Agarwal and Droom Pte Ltd, Singapore jointly hold 100% stake in Droom Technology. Droom will also look at a pre-IPO placement of Rs.400 crore ahead of the IPO, in which case the size of the IPO size would also be reduced proportionately.

Anchor placement will be done closer to the IPO opening. 

3. Founded in the year 2014, Droom counts amongst its key competitors, names like CarTrade, Cars24, CarDekho, Spinny etc. Of these only CarTrade is listed.

However, CarTrade did disappoint post its listing and still quotes at about 30% discount to the issue price. That could be an overhang for Droom Technology.
