WeWork India Management files draft IPO papers with SEBI
The Embassy Group-promoted firm's IPO is an Offer for Sale of up to 4.37 crore equity shares, with promoter Embassy Buildcon LLP and investor 1 Ariel Way Tenant Ltd offloading their shares.
Premium flexible workspace operator WeWork India Management Ltd has filed preliminary papers with capital markets regulator SEBI to float an initial public offering (IPO).
The Embassy Group-promoted firm's IPO is entirely an Offer for Sale (OFS) of equity shares of up to 4.37 crore equity shares, according to the draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) filed on Friday.
Under the OFS, promoter Embassy Buildcon LLP and investor 1 Ariel Way Tenant Ltd will offload shares.
Since it is an OFS, the company will not receive any proceeds from the IPO.
In its draft papers, the company stated that the object of the offer is to achieve the benefits of listing the equity shares on the stock exchanges.
