SEBI Asks OYO To Refile Draft IPO Papers With Updates, Public Issue May Get Delayed
Capital markets regulator Sebi (Securities and Exchange Board of India) has asked Oravel Stays Ltd, the parent company of travel-tech firm OYO, to refile the draft IPO (initial public offering) papers with certain updates.
The move might delay the Gurugram-based hospitality unicorn's initial public offering.
OYO filed preliminary documents with Sebi in September 2021 for a Rs 8,430 crore IPO.
The proposed offering consists of a fresh issue of shares of up to Rs 7,000 crore and an offer-for-sale of as much as Rs 1,430 crore.
According to an update with Sebi's website on Tuesday, the markets regulator returned the company's draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) on December 30, 2022 and asked the firm to refile it with applicable updates/ revisions.
However, the regulator has not elaborated on the updates or revisions required in the draft documents.
Earlier, the company had filed an addendum to its DRHP which included its financials for the first half of FY23. It reported a profit of Rs 63 crore for the first half of FY23 as against a loss of Rs 280 crore a year ago.
The company's revenues in the first half (April-September) of FY23 grew 24 per cent year-on-year to Rs 2,905 crore. Apart from improving operating performance, the company has a cash corpus of Rs 2,785 crore, the filing to Sebi showed.
The markets regulator had given OYO the permission to submit updated financials before it examined and processed the company's application for IPO.
