7 interesting facts to know about the Rainbow Children Medicare Ltd IPO


1) Rainbow Children Medicare Ltd has filed for an IPO with SEBI which comprises of a fresh issue of Rs.280 crore and an offer for sale of 240 lakh shares. However, since the price band for the proposed IPO has not been announced still (which is subject to the final approval of SEBI), the size of the fresh issue / IPO / offer for sale is not precisely know.

The company has for now only disclosed in the draft red herring prospectus that the total size of the issue would be in the vicinity of Rs.2,000 crore.

2) Let us talk about the offer for sale (OFS) portion of the Rainbow Children Medicare IPO first. A total of 240 lakh shares will be sold by the promoters and some of the early shareholders as part of the offer for sale. The OFS component will not result in any fresh fund infusion or dilution of the capital or the EPS.

However, the selling of stake by the promoter will increase the free float of the company and facilitate listing of the stock. Promoters Ramesh Kancharla, Dinesh Kumar Chirla and Adarsh Kancharla will participate in the OFS. In addition, among the early investors, CDC Group and CDC India will also participate in the offer for sale.

3) The fresh issue portion of Rs.280 crore will not only be capital dilutive but also EPS dilutive for the company. The company, Rainbow Children Medicare, will use the funds raised via the fresh issue for early redemption of the non-convertible debentures (NCD).

In addition, part of the fresh issue proceeds will also be utilized for the proposed capital expenditure of the healthcare business which will encompass, among other things, setting up of new hospitals and the purchase of medical equipment for these hospitals. Part of the fresh proceeds will also be utilized for general corporate purposes.
