Price Band and Issue Size
The company has fixed the price band between ₹168 to ₹174 per equity share, each having a face value of ₹10. The total issue size stands at approximately ₹120 crores, and it is a completely fresh issue – meaning all proceeds will go to the company, without any offer-for-sale component.
This book-built issue aims to raise funds primarily for capacity expansion and business modernization, something the market has been keenly tracking.
Market Lot and Investment Amount
Retail investors can apply for a minimum of one lot comprising 1,600 shares, translating to an investment of ₹2,78,400 at the upper price band. For small and high-net-worth investors, the application sizes vary as follows:
| Category | Shares | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Retail Minimum | 1,600 | ₹2,78,400 |
| S-HNI Minimum | 2,400 | ₹4,17,600 |
| B-HNI Minimum | 6,400 | ₹11,13,600 |
Since the issue is listed under the SME platform, investors must remember the higher lot size requirement compared to mainboard issues.
Share Reservation Pattern
The allocation structure is designed to cater to all investor classes, though retail investors hold the majority.
- QIB (Qualified Institutional Buyers): 0.95%
- Non-Institutional Investors: 28.21%
- Retail Investors: 65.84%
The significant retail portion shows that Yajur Fibres wants a broad shareholder base right from the start.
About Yajur Fibres Limited
Started in 1980, Yajur Fibres has become a specialist in transforming bast fibres like flax, jute, and hemp into cotton-like forms suitable for regular spinning machines. Its facility in Howrah, West Bengal, spreads across 19 acres, with access to a 500-meter stretch along the Ganga riverfront.
What makes the company stand out is its innovation – turning jute into a cotton-like fibre that blends efficiently with cotton and synthetics, something once thought impossible. This technological edge positions Yajur Fibres uniquely in the natural fibre segment.
Currently, the company operates with over 400 employees and produces a range of products including flax yarn, jute yarn, cottonised flax, jute and hemp fibres.
Promoters and Management
The promoters leading Yajur Fibres are Ashish Kankaria, Shruti A. Kankaria, Ambica Capital Markets Limited, and Gold View Financial Services Limited.
Their holding before the IPO stands at 100%, and post-issue, it will come down to around 69.49%, ensuring promoters retain majority control while still allowing for public participation.
How the IPO Funds Will Be Used
The company has outlined a detailed road map for deploying the ₹120 crore proceeds:
- Setting up a 50,000 sq. ft. shed and purchasing new dyeing and bleaching machinery at its Howrah plant – ₹11.93 crore.
- Investing ₹48 crore in subsidiary Yashodha Linen Yarn Ltd to establish a new manufacturing facility in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh.
- Allocating ₹36 crore for working capital support to strengthen daily operations.
- The remaining portion will go toward general corporate purposes.
This investment will not only boost capacity but also enable the company to scale faster in the premium linen and blended yarn market.
