About the company

Incorporated in 2016, ESAF Small Finance Bank Limited is a relatively new entrant into the already populated banking space. Within a short period of just 4 years, the company has managed to quickly grow in size and strength. ESAF Small Finance Bank currently has over 400 branches across the country and more than 4,000 employees.

Backed by an unwavering motive to serve the unserved and the underserved segment of the Indian population, the company has shown tremendous improvement in its financials. In fact, the company’s net after tax income as on the 31st of March, 2019 stood at a handsome Rs. 111.11 crores.   

The company also enjoys a diversified product portfolio that caters to not only the underserved segment, but also customers originating from Tier-1, Tier-2, and Tier-3 cities. With the upcoming IPO, the company now plans to boost its capital base in order to be able to meet future capital requirements. 

Details of the ESAF Small Finance Bank IPO

Let’s take a look at some of the important ESAF IPO details including the ESAF Small Finance Bank share price, the ESAF IPO date, and other relevant news on this latest IPO. 

ESAF Small Finance Bank IPO date

Since the company has only filed a Draft Red Herring Prospectus with the SEBI as of date, the date of opening of the ESAF IPO is still not clear. However, the date of offer can be expected to be released to the public once the company files the final Red Herring Prospectus with regard to their new IPO.

ESAF Small Finance Bank IPO issue size

The total issue size of the ESAF IPO stands at around Rs. 976.24 crores, of which Rs. 800 crores is likely to come from a fresh issue of shares by the company. The upcoming IPO issue consists of an Offer for Sale (OFS) component as well, which is likely to come up to around Rs. 176.24 crores.

The detailed breakup of the promoters and the aggregate value of their stake sale through the OFS route of this new IPO are as follows.

- Promoter selling shareholder - Rs. 150 crores

- Bajaj Allianz Life Insurance Company - Rs. 17.49 crores

- PI Ventures LLP - Rs. 8.75 crores      

In addition to this, the company may also be looking towards a pre-IPO placement of around Rs. 300 crores. If ESAF Small Finance Bank succeeds in selling its shares worth Rs. 300 crores via the pre-IPO placement route, an equivalent amount would then be reduced from the fresh issue component of the IPO. The revised fresh issue component of the IPO would thus be Rs. 500 crores if the pre-IPO placement takes place successfully.

ESAF Small Finance Bank share price band

Now that you’re acquainted with the issue size of the latest IPO from the company, let’s take a look at the ESAF Bank share price band for this issue.

The ESAF share price band for this IPO issue has not been notified by the company as on this date. However, considering the fact that the ESAF Bank share price face value is just Rs. 10 per share, the ESAF Bank share price band is likely to carry a hefty premium. More clarity on the ESAF share price can be expected once the company files the final Red Herring Prospectus (RHP) with SEBI.
