NEW DELHI: Tamilnad Mercantile Bank (TMB), whose initial public offering (IPO) received a mixed response during the three-day bidding process, is likely to announce its allotment status on Monday, September 12.
Tamilnad Mercantile Bank is among the oldest private lenders of the country and offers a range of banking and financial services primarily to micro, small and medium enterprises, agricultural and retail customers.
The lender has a customer base of 50.8 million, of which 41.8 lakh or about 85 per cent, comes from Tamil Nadu itself. However, it has a presence in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Delhi.
The lender had 509 branches, 106 of which are located in the rural areas, whereas 247 in semi-urban locations, 80 in urban and 76 in metropolitan centres as of March 31, 2022.
Last heard, the shares of Tamilnad Mercantile Bank were commanding a premium of Rs 25-30 in the grey market. The premium in the unofficial market has been moving higher than the announcement of the issue.
The company’s Rs 832 crore primary offering was sold in the range of Rs 500-525 per equity share. The issue had received a muted response from all the categories of investors, subscribing 2.86 times between September 5-7.
The quota reserved for qualified institutional buyers (QIBs) was subscribed only 1.62 times, while the one reserved for non-institutional investors (NIIs) and retailers was subscribed 2.94 times and 6.48 times, respectively.
Most analysts said the asking valuations were attractive when compared with peers, but the bank’s future growth would be subject to pending legal actions. Some of them had a subscribe rating on the issue with a long-term view.
