TVS Supply Chain Solutions Ltd, a company focussed on supply chain and logistics solutions, had filed its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) in mid-February 2022 and SEBI is yet to give its observations and approval for the IPO.

Normally, the IPOs are approved by SEBI within a period of 2 to 3 months unless there are other queries or clarifications that the regulator has. The approval for the TVS Supply Chain Solutions IPO is expected to come in by late April on in May 2022.

The IPO of TVS Supply Chain Solutions Ltd will be a combination of a fresh issue and an offer for sale but the next step will be for the company to finalize on its issue date and issue price post the SEBI approval of DRHP comes in.
 

7 important things to know about the TVS Supply Chain Solutions Ltd IPO


1) TVS Supply Chain Solutions Ltd has filed for an IPO with SEBI and is currently awaiting SEBI approval to go ahead with the IPO. The TVS Supply Chain Solutions IPO comprises of a fresh issue of Rs.2,000 crore and an offer for sale of 595 lakh shares.

However, since the price band and the granular details like the number of shares offered are not available, we will have to wait for the price band details before we get the final IPO size. The company has only a rupee break-up of the size of the fresh issue and offer for sale in terms of number of shares.

Based on the market estimates, the total IPO size including the fresh issue and the OFS component would be closer to Rs.5,000 crore.

2) Let us talk about the offer for sale (OFS) portion of the IPO first. A total of 595 lakh shares will be sold by the early investors and promoters of the company 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. The main sellers in the 595 lakh shares OFS include TVS Mobility, Omega TC Holdings Pte Ltd, Mahogany Singapore Pte Ltd, Tata Capital Financial Services and DRSR logistics Services.

3) The fresh issue portion of Rs.2,000 crore will issue fresh shares in the quantum based on the total price of the offer as decided. Let us not look at how the funds raised via fresh issue will be utilized by TVS Supply Chain Solutions.
