Bump in Ruchi Soya FPO
Ruchi Soya FPO was sailing smoothly when a bump came in the form of an unsolicited SMS received by the investors, which was reported by Ruchi Soya to IPO.
The SMS said, “Great news for all beloved members of Patanjali Parivar. A good investment opportunity in Patanjali Group. Patanjali Group company—Ruchi Soya Industries Ltd—has opened the follow-on public offer(FPO) for retail investors. The issue closes on 28 March 2022. This is available in the price band— ₹615-650 per share, i.e., a discount of about 30% to the market price. You can apply for shares through your bank/ broker/ ASBA/UPI in your Demat account.”

Amis this message, SEBI has asked Ruchi soya to allow investors to withdraw their application till 30th March 2022.

This step by SEBI to protect the interest of investors might prove to be a disadvantage for the Ruchi Soya FPO listing which is due on 6th April. However, looking at the fundamental and financial numbers of the company, this is certainly a value-based investment for the investors in the coming time.
However, despite all good about the company, no investments in the market are protected from market risk, thus investors must do their research before investing.
