What Are Some of The Regulations Governing A QIP?
To be able to engage in a QIP, companies need to fulfil certain criteria such as being listed on an exchange which has trading terminals across the country and having the minimum public shareholding requirements which are specified in their listing agreement.
During the process of engaging in a QIP, the company needs to issue a minimum of 10% of the securities issued under the scheme to mutual funds. Moreover, it is mandatory for the company to ensure that there are at least two allottees, if the size of the issue is up to Rs 250 crore and at least five allottees if the company is issuing securities above Rs 250 crore.
No individual allottee is allowed to have more than 50% of the total amount issued. Also no issue is allowed to a QIB who is related to the promoters of the company.
