MUMBAI : The initial public offering of Star Health & Allied Insurance Co Ltd will cut its offer for sale (sale of shares by existing investors) size, as it failed to attract sufficient demand from investors, two people aware of the matter said.
Earlier, the IPO extended timing for individual investors till 7pm after receiving bids for only 80% of shares on offer at 5pm, excluding the anchor allotment. “The cut in the OFS will depend on the final subscription numbers after adjusting for technical rejections of bids," said one of the people cited above.
The health insurer IPO consists of a fresh issue of ₹2000 crore and an offer for sale of upto 58.32 million shares by its existing promoters and shareholders.
