Mumbai, India: DLF Ltd has said it would invest Rs 3,500 crore - roughly a third of its planned initial public offering (IPO) - in building up its land reserves. This is significantly lower than its earlier plan of investing Rs 6,500 crore for the purpose.

Announcing its plans here today, DLF said it hoped to raise Rs 9,625 crore through a public issue of 1.75 crore shares in the price band of Rs 500-550 between June 11 and 14.

Kolkata, India: The real estate giant are now coming up with a bang. DLF has got the nod from Securities & Exchange Board of India (SEBI) for its Initial Public Offering (IPO), which is expected to raise a record Rs 13,600 crore.

If all goes well, DLF’s market capitalisation is expected to be around Rs 1,05,00 crore, equivalent to $25 billion, which will place DLF at seventh position in market capitalization rankings in the world. And after the IPO, DLF Universal’s promoter KP Singh will be among the richest Indians.
