IPO Withdrawals and Returned Papers Amid Volatility
In the meantime, SEBI has returned the draft IPO papers filed by two companies—EAAA India Alternatives Ltd, a subsidiary of Edelweiss, and Neelkanth Realtors.
Moreover, two other companies, GNG Electronics and Anlon Healthcare, withdrew their IPO applications on March 24 and March 28 respectively, citing volatile equity market conditions. Both had filed their papers with SEBI in December and February.
Shares of IndiQube, GSP Crop Science, and Ganesh Consumer Products will be listed on both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE).
