The prospect of an IPO from its subsidiary has pushed the stock price into the green today.

On offer will be up to 28,50,880 equity shares of face value of Rs. 5 each held by Aditya Birla Capital in ABSLAMC.

Sun Life (India) AMC Investments Inc. (“Sun Life India”), the joint venture shareholder in ABSLAMC, is putting on sale its 3.60 crore shares of Rs.5 FV.

The proposed sale of equity shares by ABCL and Sun Life India in the IPO will together constitute up to 13.50% of the paid-up share capital of ABSLAMC.
