INTRODUCTION
CAPITAL MARKET
Capital Market is an essential pre-requisite for industrial and commercial
development of a country. Credit is generally required and supplied on short term and long
term basis. The money market caters to the short term needs only.
Capital market refers to the institutional arrangements which facilitate the borrowings and
lending of long term funds. It consists of series of channels through which the savings of
the community are made available for industrial and commercial enterprises and public
authorities.
Capital market is further divided into three categories which are given below:
1) New Issue Market: NIM represents Primary market where new securities i.e. shares or
bonds that have never been previously offered.
2) Secondary Market: Secondary market is a place where existing securities i.e. shares
and debentures are traded.
3) Financial Institutions: Financial institutions provide medium and long term loans on
easy installments to big business houses. Such institutions help in promoting new
companies, expansion and development of existing companies.
SCENARIO OF PRIMARY MARKET
During both the earlier boons there was an availability of poor quality offerings in the
market. As issuing companies were allowed freedom to price their offerings, shares were
offered at a huge premium. Investors were left holding worthless talks as promoters
walked off with cash taking the advantage of IPO market. Numerous fly by night
operators had tapped the market and vanishing companies had become a norm.
In fact many experts opine that this loss of credibility of technology boom of 90’s,
company tapping the market for IPO often changed the name to something related to
technologies. These two left the investors bearing huge losses. Today things have
changed for better SEBI has now set up stringent eligibility criteria for companies willing
to tap the market.Its DIP (Disclosure and Investors Protection Guidelines) amended asrecently as August 2011, created a mechanism of better disclosure and increased

transparency. The process of Book Building has become the norm after the change of
rules, thus ensuring better transparency.
Primary market in India has evolved over the years. Post liberalization and after
the abolition of the office of controller of capital issues, public offers flooded the market.
The number of public offerings coming to the market and the amount raised declined over
the subsequent years. There was a brief revival thereafter which lasted for two years after
which the market languished again. From mid 2010 the market witnessed a sleeve of
initial public offers; the mobilization of funds has been definitely on masses scale.
PRIMARY MARKET
“Primary market deals with new securities which were not previously available to
the investors therefore the market makes available a new block of securities for public
subscription.”
“The new issue market is concerned with the floatation and disposal of new issue
of shares and debentures through their allotment to persons and organizations.”
“The new issue market represents the primary market where securities i.e. shares
or bonds that have never been previously issued or offered. Both the new companies andexisting one can raise capital on new issue market.”
“Primary markets are where firms raised capital through the issuance of financial
securities”.The prime function of new issue market is to facilitate the transfer of funds
from the willing investors to the entrepreneurs setting up new corporate enterprises or
going in for expansion, diversification, growth or modernization. Besides helping
corporate enterprises in securing their funds, the NIM canalizes the saving of individuals
and others into investment.

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
IPO is an acronym for Initial Public Offering. This is the first sale of stock by a company
to the public. The company can raise money by either issuing debt or equity. If the company has
never issued equity to the public is known as IPO. Corporate may raise capital in primary market
by the way of an IPO, Rights Issue or Private Placement. An IPO is selling of securities to the
public in primary market. This IPO’s can be made through Book Building Method, Fixed Price
Method or combination of both.
BOOK BUILDING PROCESS
The normal method of offering shares to the investing public at a price fixed by the issuer
does not take into account the investors demand. On the other hand, the Book Building Method
takes into account the demand for shares at various prices as an important input to finalize the
offer price.
BookBuilding is basically a capital issuance process used in IPO which aids price and
demand discovery. It is a process used for marketing a public offer of equity share of a company.
It is a mechanism where, during the period for which the book for IPO is opened, bids are
collected from investors at various prices, which are above or equal to the floor price. The issue
price is then determined after the bid closing date based on certain evaluation criteria.
GREEN SHOE OPTIONA company making an IPO of Equity shares through the Book building mechanism can
avail of Green shoe option for stabilizing the post listing price of is shares. The Green shoe option
means an option of allotting shares in access of the shares in the public issue and operating a post
listing price stabilizing mechanism through a stabilizing agent.
A Green shoe option is a clause contained in an underwriting agreement of an IPO. A
Green shoe option which is also referred as over allotment provision, allows the underwriting
syndicate to buy in an additional 15 % of the shares at the offering price if public demand for shares exceeds expectations and the stock trades above its offering price.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
A good report sells the results of the study. But every project has its own
limitations. These limitations can be in terms of
No depth analysis of government securities: Only corporate securities are
studied. No depth analysis of government securities is undertaken.
Government securities are taken only for comparison.
Limited to a particular period: Data under consideration is taken from
2008-2012.Previous years are not taken into consideration.
Partial fulfillment: Project studied doesn’t fulfill all requirements because
it does not study the whole primary market due to time availability and
course requirement. It only fulfills the partial requirement as it studies only
certain important aspects of primary market.
Approximate results: The results are approximated, as no accurate data is
available.
Results of Book Building do not apply to all firms: Book Building case

INDUSTRIAL PROFILE
STOCK MARKETS IN INDIA
Stock exchanges are the perfect type of market for securities whether of
government and semi – Govt bodies or other public bodies also for shares and debentures
issued by the joint –stock companies. In the stock market, purchases and sales are
affected in conditions of free competition. Government securities are traded outside the
trading ring in the form of over the counter sales or purchase. The bargains that are struck
in the trading ring by the members of the stock exchanges are at the fairest prices
determined by the basic loss of supply and demand.
STOCK EXCHANGE
“Stock exchange means anybody individual whether incorporated or not constituted
for the purpose of assisting, regulating or controlling the business of buying and selling or
dealing in securities”. The securities include.
Shares of public company.
Government securities
Bonds.
HISTORY OF STOCK EXCHANGES
Indian Stock Markets are one of the oldest in Asia. Its history dates back to nearly
200 years ago. The earliest records of security dealings in India are meager and obscure.
The East India Company was the dominant institution in those days and business in its
loan securities used to be transacted towards the close of the eighteenth century.

By 1830's business on corporate stocks and shares in Bank and Cotton presses
took place in Bombay. Though the trading list was broader in 1839, there were only half a
dozen brokers recognized by banks and merchants during 1840 and 1850.
The 1850's witnessed a rapid development of commercial enterprise and
brokerage business attracted many men into the field and by 1860 the number of brokers
increased into 60.
In 1860-61 the American Civil War broke out and cotton supply from United
States of Europe was stopped; thus, the 'Share Mania' in India begun. The number of
brokers increased to about 200 to 250. However, at the end of the American Civil War, in
1865, a disastrous slump began (for example, Bank of Bombay Share which had touchedRs 2850 could only be sold at Rs. 87).
At the end of the American Civil War, the brokers who thrived out of Civil War in
1874, found a place in a street (now appropriately called as Dalal Street) where they
would conveniently assemble and transact business. In 1887, they formally established in
Bombay, the "Native Share and Stock Brokers' Association" (which is alternatively
known as “The Stock Exchange "). In 1895, the Stock Exchange acquired a premise in the
same street and it was inaugurated in 1899. Thus, the Stock Exchange at Bombay was
consolidation.
The only stock exchange operating in the 19 th century were those of Mumbai setup
in 1875 and Ahmadabad setup in 1894. These are organized as voluntary non-profit
marking associations of brokers to regulate and protect their interests. Before the control
on securities under the constitution in 1950, it was a state subject and the Bombay
securities contracts (control) act of 1925 used to regulate trading in securities. Under thisact, the Mumbai stock exchange was recognized in 1927 and Ahmadabad in 1937. During
the war boom, a number of stock exchanges were organized. Soon after it became a
central subject, central legislation was proposed and a committee headed by
A.D.GORWALA went to into the bill for securities regulation on the basis of the
committee’s recommendations and public discussion, the securities contract (regulation)
act become law in 1956.

of the investors. The main functions of stock exchange are

It also allows the companies to float their shares in the market.
TRADING PATTERN OF THE INDIAN STOCK MARKET
Trading in Indian stock exchanges are limited to listed securities of public limited
companies. They are broadly divided into two categories, namely, specified securities
(forward list) and non-specified securities (cash list). Equity shares of dividend paying,
14
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 15/64
growth-oriented companies with a paid-up capital of at least Rs.50 million and a market
capitalization of at least Rs.100 million and having more than 20,000 shareholders are,
normally, put in the specified group and the balance in non-specified group.
Two types of transactions can be carried out on the Indian stock exchanges:
spot delivery transactions "for delivery and payment within the time or on the date
stipulated when entering into the contract which shall not be more than 14 days following
the date of the contract"
Forward transactions "delivery and payment can be extended by further period of 14 days
each so that the overall period does not exceed 90 days from the date of the contract". The
latter is permitted only in the case of specified shares. The brokers who carry over the
outstanding pay carry over charges (cantango or backwardation) which are usually
determined by the rates of interest prevailing.
A member broker in an Indian stock exchange can act as an agent, buy and sell
securities for his clients on a commission basis and also can act as a trader or dealer as a
principal, buy and sell securities on his own account and risk, in contrast with the practice
prevailing on New York and London Stock Exchanges, where a member can act as a
jobber or a broker only.
The nature of trading on Indian Stock Exchanges are that of age old conventional style of
face-to-face trading with bids and offers being made by open outcry. However, there is a
great amount of effort to modernize the Indian stock exchanges in the very recent times.
NSE (NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE)

across the country on an equal footing. Based on the recommendations, NSE was
promoted by leading financial institutions at the behest of the Govt of India and was
incorporated in November 1992 as a tax – paying company unlike other stock exchanges
in the country. On its recognition as a stock exchange under the securities contract act,
1956 in April 1993, NSC commenced operations in the whole sale debt market (WDM)
segment in june1994. The capital market (equities) segment commenced operations in
November 1994 and operations in derivatives segment commences in June 2000.

communication network.

Meeting the current international standards of securities market.
The standards set by NSE in terms of market practices and technology, have become
industry benchmarks and are being emulated by other market participants. NSE is more
than a mere market facilitator. It’s that force which is guiding the industry towards new
horizon and greater opportunities.

PRIMARY MARKET, BBP AND GSO
PRIMARY MARKET
This project focuses on the relatively unexplored area of primary debt and equity
markets in developing countries. Its broad goal is to begin the process of understanding
how and why primary markets develop.
Primary markets are where the firms raise capital through the issuance of financialsecurities traded after insurance. The research will examine the development of domestic
primary market, focusing on macro economic factors. With the abolition of Control over
Capital Issues prior approval of capital issue proposals by companies has been dispensed
with. The companies are required now to be fair and honest to the investing public by
disclosing all material facts along with the risk factors associated with their projects to the
public. The present practice of brochure which is circulated widely to the investors along
with application form has been replaced with abridged prospectus to be attached to the
New Issue application forms.
The word “market” can have different meanings but it is used most often as a
catchall term to denote both primary and secondary market. In fact primary market and
secondary market are both distinct terms that refers to the market where securities are
created and the one in which they are traded among investors respectively. Knowing the
functions of primary and secondary market are the key to understanding how stocks trade.
Without them, the stock market would be much harder to navigate and much less
profitable. We will help you to understand how these markets work and how they relate to
individual investors.
The primary market is that part of capital markets that deals with issuance of new
securities. Companies, government or Public sector institutions can obtain funding
through the sale of new stock or bond issue. This is typically done through a syndicate of
securities dealers .The process of selling new issues to the investors is called
Underwriting. In the case of new stock issue, this sale is called an IPO (Initial public
22
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 23/64
offering). Dealers earn a commission that is built into the price of the security, though it
can be found in the prospectus.
The market in which investors have the first opportunity to find a newly issued
security. After the first purchases, subsequent trading is said to occur in secondary
market.
The primary market is where securities are created. It is in this market that firms
sell (float) new stock and bonds to the public for the first time. For our purposes, you can
think of a primary market as being synonymous with an IPO. Simply put, an IPO occurs
when a private company sells stocks to the public for the first time.
METHODS OF FLOATING NEW ISSUES
The various methods which are used in floatation of new securities in the new issue
market are
1) Public Issue / Offer through Prospectus
2) Offer for sale
3) Private Placement
4) Right Issues
5) Stock Exchange Pricing
6) Subscription by inside coteries
1) PUBLIC ISSUES:This is the most common method followed by joint stock companies
to raise capital through the issue of new securities. Under this method, the issuing
company directly offers to the general public or institutions a fixed number of shares at a
stated price through a document called prospectus. The purpose of raising the new capital
is to finance some capital expenditure, it is usual for companies to issue a prospectus
inviting the public to take up the new securities. Legally no public limited company can
raise capital from public without issuing prospectus.
2) OFFER FOR SALE: Under this method the company sells the shares /securities to the
issue house / brokers at an agreed price. The issue house/brokers sell their shares /
securities to the investors at a higher price. The company are relieved from the problem of
23
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 24/64
printing and advertisement of prospectus and making allotment of shares. Offer for sale is
not common in India
3) PRIVATE PLACEMENT: The promoters sell their shares to their friends, relatives and
well wishers to obtain the minimum subscription which is a precondition for issue of
shares to the public. Once this precondition for issue of shares is met, the issue
house/brokers buy the securities out right with the intention of placing them with their
clients afterwards. The issue house/brokers maintain their own list of clients and through
customer contact sell the securities. The main disadvantage of this method is that the
securities are not widely distributed to the large section of investors.
4) RIGHT ISSUES: Rights issue is a method of raising funds in the market by an existing
company. A right means an option to buy certain securities at a certain privileged price
within a specified period. Shares so offered to the existing shareholders are called Right
shares. Right shares are offered to the existing shareholders in a particular proportion to
their existing shareholders. The company should abide with section 81 of the companies
act. If the shareholders fail to take the Right shares within a specified period, the balance
is to be equally distributed among applicants for additional shares. Any balance still left
over may be disposed off in the market.
5) STOCK EXCHANGE PLACING: This method has been discontinued in India due to
strict regulations and statutory rules for listing of securities. According to it, “A company
used to place its shares privately with the aid of brokers, and then secured permission for
dealing on stock exchange”. This method involved little cost but often led to
concentration of new shares in few hands.
6) SUBSCRITION BY INSIDE COTERIES: When a company goes to the new issue
market a certain percentage of the capital is kept in reserve for subscription by inside
coteries.

RECENT TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS IN NEW ISSUE
MARKET
The recent economical changes i.e. privatization, liberalization, foreign private
participation, disinvestment in public sector have given a new direction to the capital
market.
The number of issues made and the amount of capital raised from the market has been
phenomenal in the last decade. The public sector organizations like financial institutions,
public sector undertaking have started dominating the primary market. In 1996-97, all
public financial institutions including IDBI, IFCI, ICICI and many public sector backs
have mobilized resources through public issue route. There is a major decline in the
equity at premium issues over the years.
CAPITAL MOBILISED THROUGH DEBT: The late 90’s have witnessed the bent of
capital market for the issue of debt as that period is characterized with high interest rates
and negative returns from the secondary market.
MUTUAL FUNDS: New mutual funds were set up during the last decade. Many investors
are turning towards mutual funds to take the advantage of expertise in investments and
lowering of investment risk.
SEBI has dispensed with the requirement of a minimum promoters contribution and
lock in for listed companies with a three year dividend track record in the past five years
The market reforms include the introduction of electronic trading with the setting
up of OCTEI and NSE. The process of Book building was encouraged and IPO through
Book building has picked up.
Credit rating was made mandatory for some issues. This step has built the customer
confidence in the market. Qualitative changes included the introduction of new innovative
financial instruments. Certain innovative financial instruments were designed to suit the
investor’s requirement. With the globalization of business, foreign markets have
welcomed Indian companies. The Indian companies have issued GDR (global depository
receipts) and ADR (American depository receipts), foreign currency bonds, euro currency
bonds etc.

PROBLEMS OF NEW ISSUE MARKET
The problems of new issue market can be summarized as follows:
The new issue market failed to mobilize adequate savings from
the household sector. Only 10 % of the financial savings was mobilized. One reason
for such failure is lack of awareness among these sector and private placement of
capital by the companies.
The new issue market has failed to communicate to the public the
benefits of investing in new instruments.
Merchant banks have failed to bridge the gap between the
investors and the companies. They have failed to evaluate the projects taken up by
companies, credentials of promoters, technical and managerial aspects, etc. this has
led to customers being duped by companies. SEBI has now brought out stringent
guidelines for companies and merchant bankers.
Investment in capital markets are considered to be risky. So the
risk adverse attitude of customer has diverted the investment from shares to fixed
deposits and debentures.
Abnormally high cost of flotation has kept away small companies
from the primary market.
NIM has not reached to the semi urban and rural areas. An
investor from this region has to spend additional cost for post and bank charges to
access the NIM.
Delay in allotment of shares, refunding of application money,
posting of share certificates etc are common anomalies in NIM
New companies failed to gain the favor of underwriter. Caution
investors have stayed away from new companies, which led to devolution on
underwriters.
Timing of an issue is very important. But companies failed to
keep an eye on the other issues which are made during the same time. Thus crowding
of new issues at one time has made the investor to select the one which he considered
to be worthy.

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
IPO is an acronym for initial public offering. This is the first sale of stock by a
company to the public. A company can raise money by issuing either debt or equity. If the
company has never issued equity to the public, it is known as an IPO. Corporate may
raise capital in the primary market by way of an IPO, right issue or private placement.
Companies fall into two broad categories private and public. A privately held
company has fewer shareholders. Anybody can come out and incorporate a private
company, put in some money file the right legal documents and follow the reporting
rules. Most small businesses are privately held, but large companies can be private too.
IKEA, Domino’s pizza and Hallmark cards are all privately held. It usually is not possible
to buy shares in private company. The shares of private company are not offered to
general public.
On the other hand public companies can sell at least a portion of themselves to the
public and trade on stock exchange. This is why doing an IPO is also referred to as going
public. Public companies have thousands of share holders and are subjected to strict rules
and regulations.
WHY GO PUBLIC?
Going public raises cash , being publicly traded also opens many financial
doors .Because of increased scrutiny public companies can usually get better rates when
they issue debt. As long as there is a market demand a public company can always issue
more stock.
Trading in open market means liquidity. Being on a major stock exchange carries
a considerable amount of prestige. In past companies with strong fundamentals could
28
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 29/64
only qualify for an IPO, but Internet boom changed all this. Firms no longer needed
strong financial and a solid history to go public. Instead, IPO’s were done by smaller start
ups seeking to expand their business. There is nothing to worry for expansion of IPO but
most of these firms had never made a profit and didn’t plan on being profitable any time.
In cases like this companies might be suspected of doing an IPO just to make the founders
rich. The IPO then becomes the end of the road rather than beginning.Howcan this
happen? Remember an IPO is just selling stock; it is all about the sales job. If you can
convince people to buy stock in your company, you can raise a lot of money. In our
opinion IPO’s came just to collect money are extremely risky and should be avoided.
IPO BASICS: HOW TO GET INTO AN IPO?
UNDERWRITING PROCESS: Getting a piece of a hot IPO is very difficult, if not
impossible. To understand why we need to know how an IPO is done, a process known as
underwriting.
When a company wants to go public, the first thing it does is hire an investment
bank. A company could theoretically, sell its shares on its own but realistically, an
investment bank is required. Underwriting is the process of raising money by either debt
or equity. Underwriter acts as middlemen between companies and the investing public.
The company and the investment bank will first meet to negotiate the deal. Items
usually discussed includes the amount of money company will raise, the types of
securities to be issued and all details in underwriting agreement. The deal can be
structured in a variety of ways. For example, in a “firm commitment” deal the underwriter
guarantees that a certain amount will be raised by buying the entire offer and then
reselling to the public. In a “best effort” deal the underwriter sells the securities, but
doesn’t guarantee the amount rose.
Once all sides agree to deal, the investment bank puts together a registration
statement to be filed with SEC, governing bodies. This document contains information
about offering as well as company information such as financial statements, management
background, legal problems and insider holdings. The SEC then requires a “cooling off
period” in which they investigate and make sure all material information has been
disclosed. Once SEC approves the offering, a date is set when the stock will be offered to
the public.
29
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 30/64
During the cooling off the period the underwriters put together what is known as
red herring. This is an initial prospectus containing all information about the company
except for the offer price and effective date , which aren’t known at the time with the red
herring in hand , the underwriter and the company attempt to hype and build up interest
for the issue. They go on a road show also known as “the dog and pony show” where the
big institutional investors are courted.
As an effective date approach the underwriter and company sit down and decide
on the price. This is not an easy decision; it depends on the company, the success of the
road show and most importantly current market conditions. Of course it is in both parties
interest to get as much as possible. Finally the securities are sold on the stock market and
money is collected from investors.
INDIVIDUAL INVESTOR: As you can see, the road to an IPO is an long and complicated
one. You may have noticed that individual investors are not involved until the very end,
because small investors are not the target market. They do not have more cash and
therefore hold little interest for the underwriters. If the underwriters think that an IPO will
be successful they will usually pad the pockets of their favorite institutional client with
shares at IPO price. The only way for individual investor to get shares is to have an
account with one of the investment banks that is part of the underwriting syndicate. But
an individual cannot expect to open an account with $1000 and be showered with an
allocation. He has to be frequently trading client with a large account to get into a hot
IPO.
POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED TO GET INTO AN IPO
NOHISTORY: It’s hard enough to analyze the stock of an established company. An IPO
company is even trickier to analyze since there won’t be a lot of historical information.
The main source of data is Red herring prospectus, so make sure you examine this
document carefully. Look for the usual information but also pay special attention to the
management team and how they plan to use the funds generated from an IPO.
LOCK UP PERIOD: If you look at the charts following many IPO’s, you will notice that
after few months the stock takes a sleep downturn, this is often because of lockup period.
30
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 31/64
When a company goes public, the underwriters make company officials and
employees sign a lock up agreement. Lock up agreements are legally binding contracts
between underwriters and insiders of the company, prohibiting them from selling any
shares of stock for a specified period of time. The period can be anything from 3 to 24
months. 90 days is minimum period stated under rule, but lockup specified by the
underwriters can last much stronger. The problem is when lockups expire all the insiders
are permitted to sell their stock. The result is a rush of people trying to sell their stock to
realize their profit. This excess supply can put severe downward pressure on the stock
price.
FLIPPING: Flipping is reselling a hot IPO stock in the first few days to earn a good
profit. This is not easy to do and you will be strongly discouraged by your broker. The
reason behind this is that, the companies want long term investors who hold their stock,
not traders. There are no laws that prevent flipping, but your broker may black list you
from future offering or just smile less when you shake hands.
Of course, institutional investors flip stocks all the time and make big money. The double
standard exists and there is nothing we can do about it as they have buying power.
Because of flipping, it is a good rule not to buy shares of an IPO if you don’t get in on the
initial offering. Many IPO’s that have big gains on the first day will come back to earth as
the institutions take their profits.
AVOID THE HYPE-It’s important to understand that underwriters are salesmen. The
whole underwriting process is intentionally hyped up to get as much attention as possible.
Since IPO’s only happen once for each company, they are often presented as “once in a
lifetime” opportunities. Of course some IPO soar high and keep soaring. But many end up
selling below their offering prices within the year. Don’t buy a stock because it is an IPO
do it because it is a good investment.

BOOK BUILDING PROCESS
The abolition of the capital issues control act, 1947 has brought a new era in the
primary market in India. The control over the pricing of the issues, designing and tenure
of capital issues were abolished. The issuers at present are free to make the price of issue.The main drawback of pricing was the process of pricing of issues. The issue price was
determined around 60 to 70 days before the opening of the issue and the issuer had no
clear idea abut the market perception of the price determined. The traditional fixed price
method of tapping individual investor from two defects
Delay in initial public process.
Under pricing/over pricing of issues.
In fixed price method, public offers do not have any flexibility in terms of prices
as well as number of issues. From experience it can be stated that a majority of the public
issues come through fixed price method are either under priced or over priced. Retail
investors are unable to distinguish good issues from bad one. That is why book building
mechanism, a new (product) process of price discovery has been introduced to overcome
this limitation and determine issue price effectively.
SEBI guidelines defines book building as a process undertaken by which a
demand for the securities proposed to be issued by a corporate body is elicited and build
up and the price for such securities is assessed for the determination of the quantum of
such securities to be issued by means of a notice, circular, advertisement, document or
information memoranda or offer document.
Book building is basically a capital issuance process used in IPO which aids price
and demand discovery. It is a process used for marketing a public offer of equity shares of
a company. It is a mechanism where during a period fro which a book for IPO is open,
32
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 33/64
bids are collected from the investors at various prices, which are above or equal to the
floor price. The process aims at tapping both wholesale and retail investors. The
offer/issue price is then determined after the bid closing date based on certain evaluation
criteria.
FEATURES OF BOOK BUILDING PROCESS
Public offers in fixed price method involves a pre issue cost of 2-3 percent and
carry the risk of failure if it does not receive 90 percent of total subscription. In
Book building such cost and risk can be avoided because Issuer Company can
withdraw the market if demand for security does not exist.
Institutional investor like to participate largely in book built transactions as in this
process the time taken for completion of entire process is less than the fixed price
issues
Here the price is determined on the basis of the demand received or at the price
above or equal to the floor price whereas in fixed price option the price of issues is
fixed first and then securities are offered to the investors.
Book is built by book running lead manager to know the everyday demand
whereas in case of fixed price of public issues, the demand is known at the close
of the issue.
Book should remain open for minimum of 5 days.
33

BOOK BUILDING PROCESS IN INDIA
The main parties who are directly associated with book building process are issuer
company. BRLM (Book Running Lead Managers) and the syndicate members. The
BRLM (merchant banker) and the syndicate members who are the intermediaries are both
eligible to act as underwriters. The steps involved in book building process are as under:
The issuer company proposing an IPO appoints a lead merchant banker as BRLM.
Initially the issuer company consults with the book running lead manager in drawing
up a draft prospectus which does not mention the price of the issues but includes other
details about the size of the issues, past history of a company and a price band. The
securities available to the public are separately identified as net offer to the public.
The draft prospectus is filed with SEBI which gives it a legal standing.
A definite period is fixed as a bid period and BRLM conducts awareness campaign
like advertisements, road shows etc.
The BRLM appoints a syndicate member, a SEBI register intermediary who
underwrites the issues to the extent of net offer to the public.
The BRLM is entitling to remuneration for conducting the book building process.
The copy of draft prospectus may be circulated by BRLM to the institutional investors
as well as to the syndicate members.
34
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 35/64
The syndicate members create demand and ask each investor for the number of shares
and offer price.
The BRLM receives the feedback about the investors bid through syndicate members.
The prospective investors may revise their bids at any time during the bid period.
The BRLM on receipt of feedback from the syndicate embers about the bid price and
quantity of share apply has to build up an order book showing the demand for the
shares of the company at various prices. The syndicate members must also maintain a
record book for orders received from institutional investors for subscribing to the
issue of private portion.
12) On receipt of above information, the BRLM and the issuer company decides the
issue price. This is known as market clearing price.
13) The BRLM then closes the book in consultation with the issuer company and
determine the issue size of placement portion and public offer portion.
Once the final price is determined the allocation of securities should be made by
BRLM based on prior commitment, investors quality, price aggression, earliness of
bids etc. the bid of an institutional bidder, even if he has paid full amount may be
rejected without being assigned any reason as the book building portion of
institutional investors is left entirely at the discretion of issuer company and the
BRLM
The final prospectus if filed with the registrar of companies within 2 days of
determination of issue price and receipts of acknowledgement card from SEBI.
Two different accounts for collection of application money, one for the private
placement portion and the other for the public subscription should be opened by
Issuer Company.
The placement portion is closed a day before the opening of public issue through
faxed price method. The BRLM is required to have the application forms along with
application money from the institutional buyers and underwriters to the private
placement portion.
35
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 36/64
The allotment for the private placement portion shall be made on the second day from
the closure of the issue and the private placement portion is ready to be listed.
The allotment and listing of issues under the public portion i.e. fixed price portion
must be as per the existing statuary requirements.
Finally the SEBI has the right to inspect such records and books which are maintained
by BRLM and the intermediaries involved in the Book building process.
BOOK BUILDING ISSUES IN INDIA
The practice of Book building is new to Indian capital market and the procedure is
still evolving. When Book building was introduced in India the main objective was that
Book building would help discover the right price for a public issue, which in turn would
eliminate unreasonable issue pricing by greedy promoters. ICICI first used book building
method for its Rs.1000 crores- bond issue in April 2007 followed Larsen & Toubro,
TISCO, Hughes software, ONGC, TCS, NTPC etc in recent times

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SHARE OFFERED THROUGH
BOOKBUILDING AND THROUGH NORMAL PUBLIC ISSUE
In normal public issue method the price at which the securities are offered/allotted
is known in advance to the investor whereas the price at which these securities
will be offered/allotted is not known in advance to the investor in book building
process. Only indicative price range is known.
In normal public issue method demand for the securities offered is known only
after the closure of the issue whereas in book building method demand for the
securities offered can be known everyday as the book is built
In normal issue method payment is made at the time of subscription wherein
refund is given after allocation whereas in book building method payment is made
only after allocation.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 38/64
In book building securities are offered a t prices above or equal to the floor prices,
whereas securities are offered at a fixed price in case of normal public issues.
OFFER TO THE PUBLIC THROUGH BOOK BUILDING PROCESS
The oxford dictionary of business jumps from “bonus shares to book keeping” and
then on “book of primary entry” without devoting an entry for book building. Book
building is the process by which an underwriter attempts to offer an IPO based on
demand form institutional investors.
An underwriter “builds a book” by accepting orders from fund managers,
indicating the number of shares they desire and the price they are willing to pay. Book
maker is not the same as the book builder. The former takes bets and pays out money to
the people who win. The IPO can be made through fixed price method, book building
method or a combination of both. In case the issuer choose to issue securities through
book building route then as per SEBI guidelines, an issuer company can issue securities
in the following manner.
A) 100 percent of the net offer to the public through book building route
B) 75 percent of the net offer to the public through the book building process and 25
percent through fixed price portion.
C) Under 90 percent scheme this percentages will be 90 and 10 respectively.
A) 100 % THROUGH BOOK BUILDING PROCESS: In the 100 percent of the net offer to
the public, entire issue is made through book building process. In case of 100 percent
book building process, the bidding centers should be at all the places where recognized
stock exchanges are situated.
B) 75 % THRUOGH BOOK BUILDING PROCESS: The option of 75 percent book
building is available through the book building process are indicated as placement portion
category and securities available to public are identified as net offer to the public. In this
38
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 39/64
option, underwriting is mandatory to the extent of net offer to the public. The issue price
for placement portion and offers to public are required to be same.
C) 90 % THROUGH BOOK BUILDING PROCESS: This option is not available in India.
TYPES OF INVESTORS
There are three kinds of investors in book building issue. The retail individual
investor (RII), the non-institutional investor (NII) and the qualified institutional buyers
(QIB).
RII is an investor who applies for stocks for a value of not more than rupees
100000. Any bid exceeding this amount is considered in the NII category. NIIs are
commonly referred to as high net worth individuals. On the other hand QIBs are
institutional investors who posses the expertise and the financial muscle to invest in
securities markets.
Mutual funds, financial institutions, scheduled commercial banks, insurance
companies, provident funds, state industrial development corporations fall under the
definition of being a QIB. Each of these is allotted a certain percentage of total issue. The
total allotment of RII category has to be at least 35 percent of the total issue. RII alsohave an option of applying at cut-off price. This option is not available to other classes of
investors. NIIs are to be given at least 15 percent of the total issue and QIBs are to be
issued not more than 50 percent of the total issue
REVERSE BOOK BUILDING PROCESS
The reverse book building is a mechanism provided for capturing the sell orders
online basis from the shareholders through respective BRLMs which can be used by thecompanies intending to delist its shares through buy back process. In reverse book
building scenario, the acquirer/company offers to buy back shares from the shareholders.
The reverse book building is basically a process used for efficient price discovery. It is a
mechanism where during the period for which the reverse book building is open offers are
collected from the shareholders at various prices, which are above or equal to the floor
price. The buy back price is determined after the offer closing date.
Business process for delisting through book building is as follows

holdings or in the listing agreement that may have affect of company being

Advantages of reverse book building provides following advantages
It provides a fair, efficient and transparent method for collecting offer using latest
electronic trading systems.
The NSE system offers a nationwide bidding facility in securities.

RED HERRING PROSPECTUS
A preliminary registration statement that must be filed with the SEC describing a
new issue of stock and the prospects of the issuing company.
"Red Herring Prospectus" is a prospectus which does not have details of either
price or number of shares being offered or the amount of issue. This means that in case
the price is not disclosed, the number of shares and the upper and lower price bands are
disclosed. On the other hand, an issuer can state the issue size and the number of shares
are determined later. An RHP for and FPO can be filed with the ROC without the price
band and the issuer, in such a case will notify the floor price or a price band by way of an
advertisement one day prior to the opening of the issue. In the case of book-built issues, it
is a process of price discovery and the price cannot be determined until the bidding
process is completed. Hence, such details are not shown in the Red Herring prospectus
filed with the ROC in terms of the provisions of the Companies Act.
Only on completion of the bidding process, the details of the final price are
included in the offer document. The offer document filed thereafter with ROC is called a
prospectus.
“Abridged Prospectus” means contains all the salient features of a prospectus. It
accompanies the application form of public issues.

In most of the case it is experienced that IPO through book building method in
India turns out to be over priced or under priced after their listing and ultimately the small
investor becomes the net loser. If the prices in open market fall below the issue price,
small investors may start selling their securities to minimize losses. Therefore there was a
vital need of a market stabilizer to smoothen swing in the open market price of newly
listed shares after an IPO. Market stabilization is the mechanism by which stabilizing
agent acts on behalf of the issuer company, buys a newly issued securities for the limited
purpose of preventing a decline in the new securities in open market price in order to
facilitate its distribution to the public. It can prevent the IPO from huge price fluctuation
and save investors from potential loss. Such mechanism is known as Green Shoe Option.
Green Shoe Option can rectify the demand and supply imbalances and can stabilize the
price of the stock. It owes its origin to the green shoe option company, which used this
option for the first time in the world.
SEBI recognized GSO system of initial public 2004 August. According to SEBI
Guidelines “A company desirous of availing GSO shall pass the resolution in the general
body meeting authorizing the public issue, seek authorization, also for possibility of
allotment of further shares to the stabilizing agent. The company shall appoint one of the
Lead book runners among the issue management team as stabilizing agent, will beresponsible for price stabilization process if required.
The stabilizing agent shall enter into an agreement with the promoters who will
lend their share, specifying the maximum number of shares that may be borrowed from
the promoters, which shall not be in excess of fifteen percent of the total issue size. The
stabilization mechanization shall be available for the period disclosed by the company in
the prospectus, which shall not exceed 30 days from the date when trading permission
was given by the exchanges.
Ideally, with the intervention of the stabilizing agent the share price should not fall
below the issue price for a period of 30 days from the listing date. Due to this option, the
investor has a time period of 30 days up to which he is safe and his chances of incurring
the losses are minimum.
A GSO is a clause contained in the underwriting agreement of IPO. The GSO is
also referred to as an overallotment provision, allows the underwriting syndicate to buy
42
8/22/2019 study on primary market with reference to CD equi search.doc
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/study-on-primary-market-with-reference-to-cd-equi-searchdoc 43/64
up an additional 15 % of the shares at the offering price if public demand for the shares
exceeds expectations and the stock trades above its offering price.
The GSO provides extra incentive for the underwriters of a new stock offering. In
addition this investment banks, brokerages and other financing parties also often exercise the
GSO the cover some of the short position. They may have created an effort to maintain a stable
market after a new stock begins to trade as well as to meet after market demand.
AN INTERESTING FACT
The Green shoe company was the first issuer to allow the overallotment option to its
underwriters, hence the name. The provision that has become standard in firm
commitment underwriting is the overallotment option or green shoe option. Where thecompany and other sellers of securities grant and option to the underwriters to purchase
additional shares (around 15 % in total offerings) on the same term as the original shares
offer to the underwriters. The GSO allows the underwriters to exercise significant market
clout in stabilizing activities during a 30 day period immediately following a public
offering. The over allotment gives the underwriters buying power to cover their short
position in order to stem a falling stock price, without the risk of having to buy stock at
higher prices to cover their short position is the stock price increases

INTERPRETATION
From the above graph, in the year 2008 number of issues in IPO’s was 51 and the
amount raised was Rs.2719 crores whereas in the next year the number of issues
doubled to 114 and the amount remained same. Hence we can say that in year
2008 companies with small capital entered in the market.
In the years 2010 2011 and 2012 the number of issues in IPO’s were small and the
amount raised was large this shows that the less number of companies with strong
financial background entered the market
The average amount mobilized in IPO’s in years 2008 and 2009 shows that more small
companies entered the market whereas from year 2010 we can observe large companies
entered in them

INTERPRETATION
From the above graph in public issues we can notice from year 2008 to 2011 that
number of issues was 14, 10, 13 and 8 respectively and the amount mobilized was
Rs.3538, 2656, 5300 and 2600 crores respectively. From this we can say that less
number of companies with strong financial base entered the market.
In year 2012 the number of public issues increased to 16 and the amount
mobilized also increased subsequently from Rs.2600 crores in 2011 to Rs.15073
crores in 2011-12. This shows that large companies with huge capital entered the

INTERPRETATION
From the above graph Right issues decreases subsequently form year 2008 to
2012. In the year 2008 the number of issues were 28 and the amount was Rs.1560
crores which remains same in 2008, but the amount decreased from Rs.1560
crores to Rs.729 crores in the following years. This shows that in year 2009 small
companies entered the market.
From the graph we can observe that in 2010 the number of right issues was 15 as
compared to 2009 which was 27 but the amount gradually increased to Rs.1041
crores from Rs.729 crores. This shows that in year 2008 large companies with
huge capital entered the market.
In the year 2011 and 2012 the number of right issues were 12 and 19 respectively
but the amount was Rs.431 crores and Rs.1708 crores respectively which shows
high difference. This means that in year 2011 small companies with less capital
and in year 2008 large companies with high financial background entered the
market.

INTERPRETATION
From the above graph the issues were very small in Public sector, the average
amount mobilized is good. it means Public companies with high financial
background came to the market especially in year 2011-12 very big companies
entered the market.
sPublic sector units have shown less participation i.e. 2 issues in year 2011-12 it
slowly increased in year 2008-12 to 3 issues and then 5 and 8 issues in years
2009-10 and 2010-11 respectively then it subsequently increased to 18 issues in
the year 2011-12.

INTERPRETATION
From the graph we can clearly observe that the share of Private placement is very
high when compared to Public issues.
We can observe that public issues are approximately one-tenth of Private
placement on an average.
The Private placement was maximum in the year 2008 which was Rs.54701 crores
whereas minimum was in the year 2010 i.e. Rs.46220 crores.
The public issue was highest in 2009 i.e. Rs.5341 crores. In the years 2010, 2011,
2012 public issues were almost same and in the year 2009 it was lowest to
Rs.4139 crores.

FINDINGS & CONCLUSIONS:
It can be observed that it is safe for the general public to invest in different sectors
of primary market in present than in the past because SEBI has been introduced
and it controls the operations and working of new issue market
We can observe that new issue market is still prevailing in urban and Semi-urban
areas. It has not reached rural areas.
The response from investors is an indication of strengthened primary market.
We can observe much of the contribution of savings in primary market is through
Private placement.
Primary market returns are very attractive in short period especially on the day of
listing. But investors in IPO’s should take wise decision in choosing the best
company.
In the domestic IPO’s the Government securities issues are performing well
during the study period compare to private IPO’s.
Abnormal growth in resource mobilization through listed companies. Public issues
are observed between 2008 to 2012. Other areas resources mobilization is not
satisfactory especially Rights issue.
Institutional public issues are performing well with satisfactory level of growth
during the study period.
Book building is not a complete perfect mechanism because floor price and cap
price is fixed below /above which no bid is accepted
The Green shoe option is a good move because it aims at stabilizing the post
listing of share price for a period of 30 days but it too has exceptions when there is
a free fall in share prices
No specific direction to stabilizing agent as far as entry and exit of control the
prices and investment amount limitations.

SUGGESTIONS
SEBI should frame rules for investment limits to stabilize the price by stabilizing
agent.
More awareness and transparency required as far as Book building process with
reference to fixing price of an IPO
3) Primary market should provide the required red hearing prospectus at required
places for awareness to investors
