Even MF & FIIs acquired shares in SAIL via OFGS, thus seeing huge interests and wealth building. Govt in the interim, seen to be first rewarding the retail shareholders, while similar move was seen taken in case of BPCL as well.

LIC is holding 10.29 cr shares, being 10.64% stake in Hind Copper, of which, 84 lakh shares were acquired in QIP, in April 21, at Rs. 119.60 per share. Hence, even LIC may monetize is 11% stake in Hind Copper, in the next 3-4 months, ahead of its IPO, maybe at Rs. 200 per share.
