SEBI issues norms for IDR
Mumbai: As part of the disclosure requirements for offer documents of companies seeking to issue Indian Depository Receipts (IDRs), the SEBI has said that companies proposing to issue IDRs should not have been prohibited to issue securities by the regulatory body applicable to them and should have a good track record with respect to compliance with securities market regulations. According to SEBI, only Qualified Institutional Buyers(QIBs) and investors who would invest Rs.5 lakh in such issues would be allowed to invest in IDRs. The minimum size of an IDR issue should not be less than Rs.50 crore, SEBI says.

Also, if the company does not receive the minimum subscription of 90 per cent of the issued amount on the date of closure of the issue, (or if the subscription level falls below this level after the closure of issue on account of returned cheques, withdrawal of applications etc.) the company should refund the entire subscription amount received.

The offer document for an IDR issue should contain financial details of the company including capital structure, use of proceeds, audited financial statements and details of the securities market of the country of incorporation. Risk factors, forward looking statements, minimum subscription expected, nature of the IDR should also be clearly stated in the offer document, according to the circular.
