The issue’s book-running lead managers include BofA Securities Pvt Ltd, Axis Capital Ltd, Kotak Mahindra Capital Company Ltd, JM Financial Ltd, IIFL Securities Ltd, and Goldman Sachs (India) Securities Private Ltd.

The final allotment for the issue will be done on September 12, and investors will receive their refunds if they don’t secure shares in the offer on September 13. The allottees will be credited the shares in their demat account the day following the refund. Bajaj Housing Finance is expected to make its debut in the stock market on September 16, 2024.

The proceeds raised from the issue would be utilised towards enhancing the capital base of the firm and catering to its financial needs going forward.
