The IPO was the second most successful one in 2021 in terms of over-subscription after MTAR Technologies, which saw its issue getting subscribed a little over 200 times. Of the 27 firms that hit the capital market successfully this year, public issues of eight companies got subscribed over 100 times.

Proceeds from the fresh issue would be used towards funding capital expenditure requirements for expansion of the company’s Dahej manufacturing facility, up-gradation of a research and development facility in Vadodara, and general corporate purposes, the company said in its draft prospectus.
