Govt to divest its stake through the IPO
State-run hydro power generator Satluj Jal Vidyut Nigam's (SJVNL) initial public offering (IPO) to raise about Rs 1200 crore is likely to open on 29 April 2010, reports citing the company's chairman & managing director H K Sharma said. The IPO will close on 2 May 2010, reports added.
The company will reportedly file the draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) for the IPO in the forthcoming week.
The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) on 8 April 2010 approved a proposal to increase the equity stake of the Himachal Pradesh government in SJVNL by 0.5%. The state now owns 25.5% equity stake in SJVNL, while the balance is held by the Centre.
Earlier in October 2009, SJVNL had received approval from the Cabinet for 10% disinvestment of the government's stake in the company.
