Investor Categories in Brainbees Solutions IPO Subscription

The three most important categories of IPO investors defined by SEBI are part of the Brainbees Solutions IPO.

Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIB) – Examples of QIBs are Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs), Scheduled Commercial Banks, Mutual Funds, Venture Capital Funds, Foreign Venture Capital Investors (FVCIs), Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs), Insurance Companies, Provident Funds and Pension Funds with a minimum corpus of INR 250 million.

Generally, 50% of the offer is reserved for QIBs. Some of these are classified as anchor investors which work towards stabilizing an IPO.

Non-Institutional Investor (NII) – These are affluent investors who can invest more than INR 200,000. In other words, these are High Networth Individuals (HNIs). Generally, 15% of the offer is reserved for this category. Bids in the category need to exceed INR 200,000. Typical examples include Category III FPIs, resident Indian individuals, HUFs (in the name of Karta), companies, corporate bodies, eligible NRIs, scientific institutions, societies, and trusts.

The NII category is further divided into two – big and small – the threshold application amount being INR 10,00,000 (INR 10 lakh).

Retail Individual Investor (RII) – This category is purely meant for small investors, whose bid must not exceed INR 200,000 per person. Usually, 35% of total shares are reserved for this category in the case of a company with profitable operations. In the event of the IPO-bound company not fulfilling this criterion, only 10% of shares are reserved for retail investors. 

Employee – Shares reserved for company employees are not part of the Net Offer and there may additionally be a discount on offer price to encourage employees to subscribe. Investors in the employee category may also apply under the retail category in an IPO. Therefore, this category of IPO investors has a unique advantage.
