CRISIL assigns grade 4/5 to Reliance Power IPO

CRISIL has come out with research report on Reliance Power IPO. The firm has assigned a CRISIL IPO Grade '4/5' to the proposed initial public offer of Reliance Power (RPower), in a report dated December 31, 2007.

The company proposed public issue of 260 million equity shares of face value Rs 10 targeted at an issue size in the range of INR 105 to 115 billion.

CRISIL research report on Reliance Power IPO

CRISIL has assigned a CRISIL IPO Grade '4/5' to the proposed initial public offer of Reliance Power (RPower). This grade indicates that the fundamentals of the issue are above average, in relation to other listed equity securities in India.

The grading assigned reflects CRISIL's view that strong demand for power in India will catalyse regulatory facilitation for private participation in the power sector over the medium to long term. In this scenario, early movers like RPower will benefit from attractive business opportunities that are likely to come about as a result, especially if they achieve high levels of financial capability, as is likely for RPower after its proposed IPO.

The grading also reflects the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group's commitment that RPower will be the sole repository of the Group's economic interest in the power generation segment. The grading is tempered by the fact that RPower is planning to put up capacity, on a scale and within a time frame, never achieved in India before and therefore it is likely to face significant implementation challenges.

The grading also reflects the fact that power generators in India will have to depend on SEBs for off take over the short-to-medium term and that their return will be subject to the regulatory oversight in case of Two-part tariff based Projects such as Rosa I (600 MW) and Rosa II (300 MW). Also, returns on the projects won through the competitive bidding route may not be substantially higher due to competition.

About the company

Reliance Power is a part of the Reliance ADA Group and has been established with the objective to develop, construct and operate power projects both domestically and internationally.

RPower does not have any power plant in operation as of now. The company proposes to install 28,200 Mega watt (MW) generation capacity over the next 8 years. Of the total proposed capacity, six projects totalling 7060-MW (Butibori, Shahapur coal, Sasan, Rosa-I &II and Urthing Sobla) are in various stages of implementation. Commercial operations of the first unit of proposed project, Rosa-I (2*300 MW), is expected by December 2009. All the six identified projects would be executed through wholly-owned subsidiaries of RPower, except Urthing Sobla and Butibori, where RPower would hold 80 percent stake and 74 percent stake, respectively.

Besides, the aforementioned identified projects which are in advanced stages of implementation, RPower also proposes to set up seven more generation projects, which are in developmental stage. These include the gas-fired Dadri (7,480 MW) and Shahapur gas project (2,800 MW); the coal-fired MP Power project (3,960 MW) and Krishnapatnam (4,000 MW); three run-of-the-river hydroelectric projects, Siyom (1,000 MW), Tato II (700 MW) and Kalai II (1,200 MW).

SEBI approves Reliance Power's IPO

Anil Ambani group on Friday got the regulatory go-ahead from SEBI for the public issue of Reliance Power Ltd, the group's first IPO and estimated to raise about $3 billion, the highest ever proceeds in India.

Securities and Exchange Board of India has issued its observations on the draft prospectus of RPL, while clearing the way for IPO, sources close to the development said.

The public offer by the ADAG firm Reliance Energy's subsidiary is expected to be launched early next year and could raise over three billion dollars, eclipsing the public issue of realty giant DLF, which had raised more than two billion dollars and is the biggest ever IPO so far.

The go-ahead comes a day after SEBI disposed off a complaint against the IPO, while saying that "the entire promoter quota, that is, 20 per cent of the capital in RPL shall be locked in for a period of five years from the date of allotment in the proposed IPO."

SEBI on Thursday put a rider of five-year lock-in period on promoters' equity while disposing off a complaint against the proposed initial public offer of Anil Ambani group company Reliance Power Ltd.

Listing out the eligibility criteria for computation of promoters' contribution, SEBI said: "The entire promoter quota, that is, 20 per cent of the capital in RPL shall be locked in for a period of five years from the date of allotment in the proposed IPO."

A two-member bench comprising members T C Nair and V K Chopra, accordingly disposed off the case that it was hearing following an order by Mumbai High Court on a PIL.

When contacted, an ADAG spokesperson declined to comment. While SEBI wanted full disclosure by promoters and the lead managers as per the various statutes and guidelines to protect the interest of investors, it did not take up the issue of 'short charging of shareholders' due to transfer of projects from ADAG group company Reliance Energy Ltd to RPL.

The company is estimated to raise up to three billion dollars through the proposed public offer.

Indian IPO market ranks 7th in global mop-up

The USD 8.3-billion raised on Indian bourses through 95 initial public offerings (IPOs) in 2007 was the fifth-largest in terms of number of issues and the seventh-largest in terms of the proceeds for the year globally, according to Ernst and Young data.

China led with total IPO proceeds of USD 54.4 billion raised through 222 issues, according to data compiled till November by the consultancy firm. The cumulative value of IPOs on Indian bourses in 2007, however, was just marginally higher than the single largest IPO of the year by Russia’s VTB Bank, which raised USD 8 billion in May.

Globally, IPOs raised a record capital of USD 255 billion till November in 2007, according to the data. There were as many as 1,739 IPOs during January to November 2007, while another 91 public issues are estimated to have hit the capital markets during December.

In India, the largest IPO during the year was by realty giant DLF, which raised about Rs 9,187.50 crore (over USD 2 billion). E&Y said the strength of the Indian economy, stock market, corporate profits and private equity fuelled IPOs in 2007. During 2006, the Indian market had seen 78 IPOs raising $7.23 billion.

BRIC countries

The study noted that 14 of the top 20 IPOs were from emerging BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China), which raised USD 106.5 billion in 382 deals so far this year compared to USD 89.6 billion raised in 302 deals in the same period of 2006.

According to the data, Asia-Pacific accounted for 46 per cent of the worldwide IPO issues, ahead of Europe, West Asia, and Africa (EMEA), which together accounted for 35 per cent and North America 14 per cent.

Despite accounting for only 4 per cent of the total number of IPOs till November, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKSE) was the leading exchange by capital raised, attracting a 13 per cent market share, mainly on account of some of the year’s largest listings, including China CITIC Bank and China Railway.

NYSE was ranked second in terms of capital raised (11 per cent), attracting 3.6 per cent of total listings driven by a number of large US deals, including Blackstone Group and MF Global, reports The Hindu Business Line.

Selling IPOs on the listing day not a good idea

Nearly 102 companies had listed in 2007 till December 17. CNBC-TV18's Research Analyst, Mansi Vora has analysed that the price movements of 77 out of 102 IPOs shows that investors would have been better off not selling their shares on the day of listing.

Again 60% or 47 IPOs out of 77 IPOs, under consideration, had appreciated further post listing as well.

For instance - Orbit Corporation closed the day with a premium of 16.32% over its offer price of Rs 110 when it listed on the bourses on April 12 this year. However, if investors would have been patient and held this stock till December 17, they would have gained a mind-boggling 623% returns.

In case of Gremach Infra, which listed at a discount of 2.38% to its issue price of Rs 86 on April 11. However, by December 17, the stock price had skyrocketed to Rs 333.30, a gain of 287.56% in a span of 9 months.

* Everonn systems - (241.75 per cent on debut, 424.25 per cent on December 17)
* MIC Electronics - (123.77 per cent on debut, 402.10 per cent on Dec 17)

* GBN - (104.04 per cent on debut, 286.42 per cent on Dec 17)
* Redington - (44.47 per cent on debut, 245 per cent on Dec 17).

However, there are 32 IPOs out of the sample size of 77 IPOs did better on the day of their debut or have sunk further.

9 IPOs from this group did better on the listing day as compared to their closing price on December 17.

Prominent stocks are –

Cambridge Tech that listed at a premium of 163 per cent on February 7 and by December 17 pared its gains to 120.26 per cent.

Sel Manufacturing listed at a premium of 58.67 per cent August 21 and by December 17, reduced its gains to 24.28 per cent.

Pochiraju Industries gained 63.83 per cent on the day of listing (February 2) and pared its gains to 15.83 per cent by December 17.

Same is the case with Lumax Auto (47.47 per cent on January 16 and 12.67 per cent by December 17), Mind Tree (45.95 per cent March 7 and 10.52 per cent by December 17) and Roman Tarmat (82.77 per cent on July 9 and 8.91 per cent by December 17).

There are 35 IPOs, which ended the listing day at discount to its issue price. Out of which, only 11 IPOs had been bounced back and trading in the green with good gains while others were below issue price.
