Brainbees Solutions is scheduled to finalize the basis of allotment of its shares on Friday, August 09. Bidders will get the messages, alerts or emails for debit of their funds or revocations of their IPO mandate over the weekend or latest by Monday, August 12. The IPO of Firstcry's parent had received a muted response from the investors.
The IPO of Brainbees Solutions was open for bidding between August 6 and August 8. The company had offered its shares in the fixed price band of Rs 440-465 per share with a lot size of 32 shares. The company raised a total of Rs 4,193.73 crore from its IPO, which included a fresh share sale of up to Rs 1,666 crore and an offer-for-sale (OFS) up to 5,43,59,733 shares.
The issue was overall subscribed a total of 12.22 times, thanks to the push from qualified institutional bidders (QIBs), whose quota was booked 19.30 times. The quota for non-institutional investors was subscribed 4.68 times. The portions reserved for retail investors and employees saw bidding for 12.22 times and 6.57 times during the three-day bidding process.
Grey market premium (GMP) of Firstcry-parent Brainbees Solutions has seen a sharp fall following the lacklustre response from the investors. Last heard, the company was commanding a premium of Rs 20 per share, suggesting a listing pop of less than 5 per cent for the investors. However, it was around Rs 45 when the issue opened for bidding.
Brainbees Solutions, Founded in 2010, offers products for mothers, babies, and kids via its online platform 'FirstCry'. It aims to create a one-stop store for parents' retail, content, community engagement, and education needs. The company offers products from Indian third-party brands, global brands, and its own brands.
Brokerage firms are mostly positive on the issue suggesting investors to subscribe to it for a long term. They are a positive company's experienced management, strong market share, potential for the future, and leadership position in the market. However, rich valuations, loss making nature of business, negative cash flows and stiff competition are the key concerns.
