ICICI Bank will be offering part payment option for retail investors applying in its follow on public issue (FPO). Unlike the DLF IPO, ICICI Bank will be listing its partly paid shares along with the fully paid shares (which are already listed and traded on NSE and BSE). This sounds interesting to me. So unlike the DLF IPO retail investors don’t have to think twice before going for the part payment option in the ICICI Bank public issue. During a coversation with a friend, I was told that there is a catch in using the part payment option. According to him, since only retail investors would have partly paid shares and most of them would like to sell them on listing, there would be higher selling pressure here than in the fully paid up category. However there is a flaw in this logic. If the same asset class trades at two different valuations, then there is an arbitrage opportunity and hence arbitrageurs will enter the picture. This will make sure that the price difference between the partly paid ICICI Bank shares and the fully paid ICICI Bank shares is negligible. Hence retail investors can safely use the part payment option for applying in ICICI’s public issue. This is the third time ICICI Bank is raising funds through a public issue. Given below are a list of features which make the ICICI Bank public issue very attractive.
ICICI Bank Public Issue Price Band : ICICI Bank has fixed the price band for its public issue between Rs. 885 and Rs. 950 which I must admit is on the higher side. But the good news is that Retail Investors will get a discount of Rs. 50 per share on the Issue Price fixed by ICICI Bank.
ICICI Bank Public Issue Payment Options : ICICI Bank is offering two payment options for retail investors investing in its Public Issue. Under the first option retail investors need to pay Rs. 250 per share on application, Rs. 250 per share on allotment and the remaining amount on call. ICICI Bank reserves the right to call the balance amout any time within 6 months from the date of allotment. Under option 2 Retail investors should pay the full amount less the Rs. 50 discount offered to retail investors. Under the first option, I wonder if the ICICI public issue gets oversubscribed, ICICI Bank will adjust the application money and the call money and give us fully paid up shares. Any clarifications? Anyone?
Questions?
Yes, a lot infact
. Infact the the part payment option is not clear to me. Can you please explain it a bit more. May be with some example. I am new to Share Market
Thanks
It ain’t clear to me either. I was asking if some reader could clarify
Usually, the part payment option involves paying a part of the amount while applying and the remaining at allotment. Refund would be adjusted against the remaining payment outstanding. But in the case of ICICI FPO, we also have payment on call. I’m unsure as to how this will work.
Hi sir,
This is my first mail to u.
I am little bit confused sir..
suppose as retail investor i apply for 6 shares of ICICI .using payment option 1 i wld be giving 1500(250*6).And suppose i get alloted 6 shares now the reaming amt(5700-1500)4200 if fixes issue price @950. i wld hav to pay later in 6 mths.?
and since Rs 50 disount to retail thn amt is 3900.if i m wrong pls correct?
and can i sell these shares on listing day?
Thanks

Sharekhan website is showing a different picture. If you go for the part-payment option (250/-) , then you will be paying 9/- towards the face value and 241/- towards premium. So, does this mean stocks obtained by this option will have face value 9/- or just they are collecting 9/- now and later 1/- for the face value.
Also , Do you have any idea whether IPOs bought by this option will be available to the investor at the same time they will be available to those who opted for full payment option ?

it may be icici banks ipo strategy to have full liquidity from the market. as bullishindian.com says LISTING PARTLY PAID SHARES IN MARKET is strange one. i dont know how it will work. but icici bank proves it innovation again. if it works, investors will be done more.
To Answer your question
“Under the first option, I wonder if the ICICI public issue gets oversubscribed, ICICI Bank will adjust the application money and the call money and give us fully paid up shares. Any clarifications? Anyone?”
Yes in case the issue get oversubscribed you may get fully paid up shares depending upon the level of oversubscription, Various scenarios for the same have been given in the Red Herring Prospectus filed with SEBI.
@ Abhinav – Thanks a lot for bringing this information to my notice. I think I missed reading that part in the RHP.
