Bajaj Finance Launches Rs 11,700 Crore QIP at Discount to Fund Growth
Bajaj Finance has launched a qualified institutional placement (QIP) to raise up to Rs 11,700 crore, part of a broader Rs 17,500 crore capital-raising plan including Rs 5,800 crore through preferential warrants to promoter Bajaj Finserv. The QIP is priced at a floor of Rs 992.25 per share with an indicative issue price of Rs 1,025, reflecting a 5% discount to recent closing prices. Proceeds will support business growth and repay debt. The share sale follows investor roadshows and has led to a rise in Bajaj Finance's stock price, nearing its 52-week high.
