BMW Ventures IPO price band and other details
The price band for the offering has yet to be determined.

The IPO proceeds are anticipated to strengthen the company’s capital base and support its growth strategies in the competitive business landscape.
BMW Ventures IPO issues distribution
BMW Ventures Limited, which operates in diversified sectors, has outlined its financial strategy in the Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) filed in September 2024. The firm is targeting a broad base of investors, with allocations for Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs), Non-Institutional Investors (NIIs), and Retail Individual Investors (RIIs). The prospectus also highlights that no more than 50 per cent of the issue will be allocated to QIBs, and at least 35 per cent will be reserved for retail investors. A portion of the issue will also be made available to domestic mutual funds.
This IPO marks a significant step for the company, which was incorporated in 1994. It has grown under the leadership of its promoters, including Bijay Kumar Kishorepuria, Sabita Devi Kishorepuria, and Nitin Kishorepuria, with strong backing from private entities like BMW Fin-Invest Private Limited and Ridhisidhi Fincon Private Limited.
While the IPO represented an opportunity for investors, the company has highlighted that, as this is its first public equity issue, there are inherent risks. These include market volatility and uncertainties surrounding share price performance post-listing. Investors are encouraged to carefully assess the risk factors detailed in the DRHP before making investment decisions.
The shares are set to be listed on both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE), providing investors with the opportunity to trade BMW Ventures’ shares on major Indian stock exchanges once the IPO concludes.
