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.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions on DRHP & RHP Preparation

Common questions about IPO prospectus preparation and SEBI filing in India.

DRHP, which stands for Draft Red Herring Prospectus, is a primary document filed with SEBI for regulatory review, containing high-level business and financial details but no price information. However, RHP, which stands for Red Herring Prospectus, is an updated, SEBI-approved version filed later, which includes the price band, issue size, and finalized disclosures for investors.

It usually takes around 30 to 45 business days for SEBI to review observations for an SME IPO, and a timespan of around 30 to 75 business days for a Mainboard IPO from the date of filing. However, in case if SEBI raises material deficiencies, the clock resets and a high-quality DRHP with accurate disclosures receives observations at the lower end of the timeline.

The list of core documents needed to prepare for a DRHP in India includes the audited financial statements of the last 3 to 5 years, restated financials, corporate constitutional documents (MOA/ AOA), board/ shareholder resolutions, material contracts, legal compliance reports, property titles, director KYC, intellectual property registrations, and consent from intermediaries.

Yes, our experts at Enterslice can review your existing DRHP documents, along with expert services for drafting, regulatory compliance, and advisory of SME IPOs. Their support not only ensures SEBI compliance, but also supports the listing on the BSE/ NSE stock exchange.

Preparation of a DRHP generally costs between Rs. 25 lakhs and Rs. 45 lakhs in India, which is primarily driven by merchant banker fees, legal counsel, and auditor fees. For small and medium enterprises, these fees are part of the broader legal/regulatory costs, whereas Mainboard IPOs incur significantly higher fees.

Yes, Enterslice helps businesses connect with an independent professional, rather than acting as a traditional law firm collaborating with a client’s specific, separate service providers. However, they also provide comprehensive regulatory compliance, legal, and licensing support, including specialized services for merchant bankers, which can complement existing professional relationships.
