Who are Anchor Investors?
The concept of anchor investors was introduced by SEBI in 2009 as institutional investors invited by the issuing company to subscribe to shares before the opening date of an IPO. This can be done to make the IPO seem attractive to retail investors by highlighting the interest shown by renowned investment companies in the share. While SEBI mandates an investment of at least Rs.10 crore by each anchor investor, it also prohibits them from selling the allotted shares up to 30 days from the date of allotment.
