What are DRHP & RHP in an Indian IPO?
DRHP, which stands for Draft Red Herring Prospectus, is a primary document filed by an issuer company filing with SEBI before a public offering. In India, it is a publicly available formal document providing information about the business, its financials, risk factors, use of proceeds, and offer structure. Upon submission to SEBI, this comprehensive document is sent for evaluation to see if the requisite disclosures were made directly before filing the final offer.
RHP, which stands for Red Herring Prospectus, is an enhanced version of DRHP. This prospectus is filed after incorporating the SEBI observations, including details such as IPO dates, prices, as well as up-to-date financial data. It simply serves as a final prospectus during the book-building process, providing relevant and up-to-date information about the offering.
