IPO Was An Offer for Sale

The IPO is entirely an offer-for-sale (OFS) by the Edelweiss Group, meaning the process would not go to the company. 

The draft red herring prospectus (DRHP), submitted to the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) in January, reduces the issue size from the proposed Rs. 1,500 crore to Rs. 1,200 crore.

EAAA India Alternatives, established in 2008, is an alternative investment platform that manages long-term capital across various asset classes, including infrastructure, commercial real estate and private debt.
