The Bombay Stock Exchange is listing itself as an entity on the exchange. Once it has filed the draft, BSE will begin roadshows to popularise the issue to the institutional investors.
BSE will issue it's shares via offer-for-sale, and the issue size is expected to be Rs 1,200 crore. One share might cost Rs 400. During the offer for sale, BSE had a good response, with shareholders tendering 30 per cent of the exchange's total equity share capital.
Seven merchant bankers have been appointed by BSE to take care of its IPO — Edelweiss Financial Services, Axis Capital, Jefferies, Nomura, Deutsche Bank, Motilal Oswal and SBI Capital Market.
