MUMBAI: The Bombay Stock Exchange — Asia’s oldest bourse — will seek to raise $182 million through an initial public offering next week, its chief executive said on Tuesday.
The IPO will open on January 23 and last three days, with shares priced at 805 ($11.84) and 806 rupees, Ashish Chauhan told a press conference in India’s commercial capital Mumbai.
“I urge investors to study, go through all the details and then invest,” Chauhan said, adding that the BSE hopes to raise 12.43 billion rupees ($182m) through the flotation.
The exchange’s shares will be listed on its chief rival, India’s National Stock Exchange. The flotation brings the BSE in line with most other stock markets around the world which are already publicly-listed companies.
