More on LIC’s Q4

LIC had earlier announced a behemoth Rs. 21,000 crore initial public offering (IPO) on May 4, with a price band between Rs. 902- Rs. 949 per equity share. LIC listing was a government disinvestment exercise, wherein the GOI sold over 22.13 crore shares or a 3.5% stake

The IPO, much to its fan-fare raised $2.7 billion, with buyers, ranging from sovereign funds in Norway and Singapore, to millions of Indian retail investors. However, it had a tepid listing on the indices and is trading nearly 15% below the cutoff price (since its listing on May 17).

On Monday, LIC's script traded 1.89% higher at Rs 837.05 apiece.
