Ujjivan Small Finance Bank IPO - Might not be as good as the previous listing but this one has an alternative as well

Ujjivan Financial Services (UJJIVAN IN) plans to list its small finance bank, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank (USFB). USFB aims to raise around US$105m of new capital through the issue. Post the commencement of operations of the SFB, Ujjivan transferred most of its assets and operations to the SFB. It's now being made to list the SFB to comply with the regulatory requirements of listing the SFB within three years of operations, i.e. on or before the end of Jan 2020.

I had earlier covered Ujjivan's IPO in 2016, Ujjivan Financial IPO - Morphing into a Bank Gives It a License to Mint Money While Doing Some Good, at which time the SFB was about to be setup. I have also covered the background of this listing in Ujjivan Small Finance Bank Pre-IPO - Shouldn’t Be Forced to List.

In this insight, I'll touch upon the dynamics of the deal and run the deal through our IPO framework.
