Nominates lead merchant banker(s) as 'book runners'. Issuer specifies number of securities to be issued and the price band for bids.

Bids can be revised by the bidders before the book closes. On the close of the book building period, the book runners evaluate the bids on the basis of the demand at various price levels. The book runners and the Issuer decide the final price at which the securities shall be issued. Generally, number of shares are fixed, issue size gets frozen based on the final price/share. Allocation of securities is made to the successful bidders. The rest get refund orders.

BOOK RUNNERS

Why Book Building? This process will help to discover the demand and the price of the shares. also, the costs of public issue are much reduced and the time taken for completion of the entire process is much less than the in the normal public issue.

Example

The price discovery is a function of demand at various prices. The highest price at which the issuer is able to issue the desired number of shares is the price at which the book cuts off i.e. Rs. 22 in the above example. The issuer, in consultation with the BRLM, will finalize the issue price at or below such cut off price i.e. at or below Rs. 22. All bids at or above this issue price and cut-off bids are valid bids and are considered for allocation in the respective categories.
