Ola Electric Mobility's shares are priced at INR 72-76 per share, with investors able to bid for a minimum of 195 equity shares per lot and multiples thereof. The company's IPO is a combination of a fresh issue of equity shares up to INR 5,500 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of 8.49 crore equity shares worth INR 645.56 crore, at the upper end of the price band, by promoters and investors. This takes the total issue size to INR 6,145.56 crore.
Under the OFS, Ola Electric founder Bhavish Aggarwal would offload almost 3.8 crore shares. For Ola Electric, the IPO will provide the much-needed impetus to invest in enhancing cell manufacturing capacity and research and development on future technologies.
