The IPO consists of an offer for sale (OFS) by the selling shareholders for up to 8 million shares and a fresh issue of up to 40 million shares. A pre-IPO placement of up to 4 million shares may be considered by the company, subject to consultation with the Book Running Lead Manager (BRLM). A share of the company's equity has a face value of ₹2.
The capital expenditure required for the expansion of the Dhule facility would be funded in part by the fresh issue proceeds up to approximately ₹182 crores, while the remaining net proceeds up to ₹100 crores would be used for particular borrowing repayment and/or prepayment. Net proceeds remaining after expenses would be applied to general corporate needs and issue costs.
On a consolidated basis, the company's revenue during FY 2023 was approximately ₹1,180 crores, its EBITDA was about ₹73 cores, and its Profit After Tax (PAT) was roughly ₹42 crores. The Company's ROE and ROCE were around 28% and 24%, respectively. When compared on a stand-alone basis, revenue, EBITDA, and PAT increased at a CAGR of approximately 57%, 39%, and 71%, respectively, between FY21 and FY23.
Sanstar exports to more than 45 nations in the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Americas, Europe, and Oceania. Exports account for more than 30% of the company's total revenue. The company's Kutch facility is registered with the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA), which is noteworthy.
