The issue received a robust response from investors with the overall book being over-subscribed 6.3 times, witnessing strong participation from both marquee domestic and foreign institutional investors, PVR claimed.
This fund raise has followed a very successful Rights Issue of Rs. 300 crores which the company had completed in August 2020, which saw an over-subscription of 2.24times.

The company said it was able to build significant investor interest for its equity offering despite the negative impact of Covid-19 pandemic on the business and extremely volatile equity markets in the week leading up to the transaction announcement with broader markets correcting approx. 6%.
