COMPANY PROFILE

Reliance Power Limited is under the Anil Ambani Group and it is involved in the
business of developing large and medium size power projects. Reliance Power
Limited has plans developing around thirteen large and medium sized power
projects. The projects that are being developed by Reliance Power Limited are
located in southern India, western India, north- eastern India and northern India.
The total installed power generation capacity of all the thirteen power projects
would be around 28,200 MW.
Reliance Power Limited (Reliance Power), part of RADAG has been set up to
develop, construct and operate power projects domestically and internationally. It
aims to develop 13 power projects with an aggregated generation capacity of
28,200 MW.

Reliance Power will have a diversified project portfolio in terms of geography, fuel
mix and technology.

Nine of the proposed thirteen projects are coal-fired or gas-based and two of
those have fuel security; the rest are yet to be finalized. In our view, for such
huge capacity, fuel linkage is of paramount importance
Long term PPAs for 8,560MW have been signed, constituting just 32% of the
aggregated generating capacity. Of these, Sasan project (based on domestically
procured coal) and Krishnapatnam project (based on imported coal) have been
signed at a tariff of Rs1.19kw/h and 2.33kw/h per unit respectively, the differential
attributable to the high cost of imported coal. A large number of PPAs are yet to
be signed, reflecting some ambiguity on profitability.

We believe equipment sourcing will be critical for Reliance Power being able to
commission projects on schedule. Other key factors, apart from capital costs, are
timely deliveries of equipment and maintenance costs.

We believe the Group can draw synergies from the expertise of Reliance Energy
.
in EPC in executing projects of Reliance Power.

Our concerns include lack of fuel linkages except for 2 projects, coal prices and
gas and equipment availability. Also in view of the gap between the aggregate
project outlay of Rs1, 12,129Cr and post-IPO net worth of 13,707Cr, we believe
Reliance Power may have to opt for further equity dilution going forward, in order
to maintain a manageable debt-equity ratio going forward.

While the high promoter holding of around 90% post-listing is a positive, it may
be viewed negatively from the point of view of minority shareholders, since the
latter will enter the company @ Rs450 per share vis-à-vis promoters’ average
cost of Rs16.92 per share.

Given the long gestation period of projects, which are likely to get commissioned
from FY10 onwards, we have considered non-earnings related valuation
parameters. The valuation of the IPO in terms of price/book (7.4x FY08E)
appears expensive vis-à-vis NTPC (2.8x) and Tata Power (4.5x).

The issue appears expensive, also on the basis of asset valuation (estimated
valuation of generating capacity) in FY13. It is only on the basis of FY17
estimates, that the issue looks attractive.

However, we believe the aggression and track record of the promoter group in
shareholder wealth creation in all its businesses including telecommunications,
power distribution, financial services and entertainment is likely to have a positive
rub-off effect on this IPO as well.

Corporate Governance
Organizations, like individuals, depend for their survival, sustenance
and growth on the support and goodwill of the communities of which
they are an integral part, and must pay back this generosity in every
way they can...

This ethical standpoint, derived from the vision of our founder, lies at
the heart of the CSR philosophy of the Reliance – ADA Group.

While we strongly believe that our primary obligation or duty as


corporate entities is to our shareholders – we are just as mindful of the
fact that this imperative does not exist in isolation; it is part of a much
larger compact which we have with our entire body of stakeholders:
From employees, customers and vendors to business partners, eco-
system, local communities, and society at large.

We evaluate and assess each critical business decision or choice from


the point of view of diverse stakeholder interest, driven by the need to
minimize risk and to pro-actively address long-term social, economic
and environmental costs and concerns.

For us, being socially responsible is not an occasional act of charity or


that one-time token financial contribution to the local school, hospital
or environmental NGO. It is an ongoing year-round commitment, which
is integrated into the very core of our business objectives and strategy.

Because we believe that there is no contradiction between doing well


and doing right. Indeed, doing right is a necessary condition for doing
well.
ABOUT LATE SH. DHIRUBHAI AMBANI

Few men in history have made as dramatic a contribution to their


country’s economic fortunes as did the founder of Reliance, Sh.
Dhirubhai H Ambani. Fewer still have left behind a legacy that is more
enduring and timeless.

As with all great pioneers, there is more than one unique way of
describing the true genius of Dhirubhai: The corporate visionary, the
unmatched strategist, the proud patriot, the leader of men, the
architect of India’s capital markets, the champion of shareholder
interest.
But the role Dhirubhai cherished most was perhaps that of India’s
greatest wealth creator. In one lifetime, he built, starting from the
proverbial scratch, India’s largest private sector enterprise.

When Dhirubhai embarked on his first business venture, he had a seed


capital of barely US$ 300 (around Rs 14,000). Over the next three and
a half decades, he converted this fledgling enterprise into a Rs 60,000
crore colossus—an achievement which earned Reliance a place on the
global Fortune 500 list, the first ever Indian private company to do so.

Dhirubhai is widely regarded as the father of India’s capital markets. In


1977, when Reliance Textile Industries Limited first went public, the
Indian stock market was a place patronized by a small club of elite
investors which dabbled in a handful of stocks.

Undaunted, Dhirubhai managed to convince a large number of first-


time retail investors to participate in the unfolding Reliance story and
put their hard-earned money in the Reliance Textile IPO, promising
them, in exchange for their trust, substantial return on their
investments. It was to be the start of one of great stories of mutual
respect and reciprocal gain in the Indian markets.

Under Dhirubhai’s extraordinary vision and leadership, Reliance


scripted one of the greatest growth stories in corporate history
anywhere in the world, and went on to become India’s largest private
sector enterprise.

Through out this amazing journey, Dhirubhai always kept the interests
of the ordinary shareholder uppermost in mind, in the process making
millionaires out of many of the initial investors in the Reliance stock,
and creating one of the world’s largest shareholder families.

contemporary India, Shri Anil D Ambani, 48, is the chairman of all listed
companies of the Reliance ADA Group, namely, Reliance
Communications, Reliance Capital, Reliance Energy and Reliance
Natural Resources limited.

He is also Chairman of the Board of Governors of Dhirubhai Ambani

efforts to raise over US$ 2 billion. He also steered the 100-year Yankee
bond issue for the company in January 1997.
INTRODUCTION

Initial public offering


Initial public offering (IPO), also referred to simply as a "public offering" or
"flotation," is when a company issues common stock or shares to the public for
the first time. They are often issued by smaller, younger companies seeking
capital to expand, but can also be done by large privately-owned companies
looking to become publicly traded.

In an IPO the issuer may obtain the assistance of an underwriting firm, which
helps it determine what type of security to issue (common or preferred), best
offering price and time to bring it to market.

An IPO can be a risky investment. For the individual investor, it is tough to predict
what the stock or shares will do on its initial day of trading and in the near future
since there is often little historical data with which to analyze the company. Also,
most IPOs are of companies going through a transitory growth period, and they
are therefore subject to additional uncertainty regarding their future value.
However, in order to make money, calculated risks need to be taken.

Reasons for listing


When a company lists its shares on a public exchange, it will almost invariably
look to issue additional new shares in order to raise extra capital at the same
time. The money paid by investors for the newly-issued shares goes directly to
the company (in contrast to a later trade of shares on the exchange, where the
money passes between investors). An IPO, therefore, allows a company to tap a
wide pool of stock market investors to provide it with large volumes of capital for
future growth. The company is never required to repay the capital, but instead
the new shareholders have a right to future profits distributed by the company
and the right to a capital distribution in case of dissolution.

The existing shareholders will see their shareholdings diluted as a proportion of


the company's shares. However, they hope that the capital investment will make
their shareholdings more valuable in absolute terms.

In addition, once a company is listed, it will be able to issue further shares via a
rights issue, thereby again providing itself with capital for expansion without
incurring any debt. This regular ability to raise large amounts of capital from the
general market, rather than having to seek and negotiate with individual
investors, is a key incentive for many companies seeking to list.

Procedure
IPOs generally involve one or more investment banks as "underwriters." The
company offering its shares, called the "issuer," enters a contract with a lead
underwriter to sell its shares to the public. The underwriter then approaches
investors with offers to sell these shares.

The sale (that is, the allocation and pricing) of shares in an IPO may take several
forms. Common methods include:

• Best efforts contract


• Firm commitment contract
• All-or-none contract
• Bought deal
• Dutch auction
• Self distribution of stock

In the business of initial public offering, the underwriting contract is the contract
between the underwriter and the issuer of the common stock. The following types
of underwriting contracts are most common

In the firm commitment contract the underwriter guarantees the sale of the
issued stock at the agreed-upon price. For the issuer, it is the safest but the most
expensive type of the contracts, since the underwriter takes the risk of sale

In the best efforts contract the underwriter agrees to sell as many shares as
possible at the agreed-upon price.

Under the all-or-none contract the underwriter agrees either to sell the entire
offering or to cancel the deal.

Stand-by underwriting, also known as strict underwriting or old-fashioned


underwriting is a form of stock insurance: the issuer contracts the underwriter
for the latter to purchase the shares the issuer failed to sell under stockholders
subscription and applications

A large IPO is usually underwritten by a "syndicate" of investment banks led by


one or more major investment banks (lead underwriter). Upon selling the shares,
the underwriters keep a commission based on a percentage of the value of the
shares sold. Usually, the lead underwriters, i.e. the underwriters selling the
largest proportions of the IPO, take the highest commissions—up to 8% in some
cases.

Multinational IPOs may have as many as three syndicates to deal with differing
legal requirements in both the issuer's domestic market and other regions. For
example, an issuer based in the E.U. may be represented by the main selling
syndicate in its domestic market, Europe, in addition to separate syndicates or

selling groups for US/Canada and for Asia. Usually, the lead underwriter in the
main selling group is also the lead bank in the other selling groups.

Because of the wide array of legal requirements, IPO’s typically involve one or
more law firms with major practices in securities law, such as the Magic Circle
firms of London and the white shoe firms of New York City

Usually, the offering will include the issuance of new shares, intended to raise
new capital, as well the secondary sale of existing shares. However, certain
regulatory restrictions and restrictions imposed by the lead underwriter are often
placed on the sale of existing shares.

Public offerings are primarily sold to institutional investors, but some shares are
also allocated to the underwriters' retail investors. A broker selling shares of a
public offering to his clients is paid through a sales credit instead of a
commission. The client pays no commission to purchase the shares of a public
offering; the purchase price simply includes the built-in sales credit.

The issuer usually allows the underwriters an option to increase the size of the
offering by up to 15% under certain circumstance known as the green shoe or
over allotment option.

The first sale of stock by a private company to the public. IPO’s are often issued
by smaller, younger companies seeking the capital to expand, but can also be
done by large privately owned companies looking to become publicly traded.

In an IPO, the issuer obtains the assistance of an underwriting firm, which helps it
determine what type of security to issue (common or preferred), the best offering
price and the time to bring it to market

Pricing
Historically, IPOs both globally and in the United States have been under priced.
The effect of "initial under pricing" an IPO is to generate additional interest in the
stock when it first becomes publicly traded. Through flipping, this can lead to
significant gains for investors who have been allocated shares of the IPO at the
offering price. However, under pricing an IPO results in "money left on the
table"—lost capital that could have been raised for the company had the stock
been offered at a higher price. One great example of all these factors at play was
seen with theglobe.com IPO which helped fuel the IPO mania of the late 90's
internet era. Underwritten by Bear Stearns on November 13, 1998 the stock had
been priced at $9 per share, and famously jumped 1000% at the opening of
trading all the way up to $97, before deflating and closing at $63 after large sell
offs from institutions flipping the stock . Although the company did rise about $30
million from the offering it is estimated that with the level of demand for the

offering and the volume of trading that took place the company might have left
upwards of $200 million on the table.

The danger of overpricing is also an important consideration. If a stock is offered


to the public at a higher price than the market will pay, the underwriters may have
trouble meeting their commitments to sell shares. Even if they sell all of the
issued shares, if the stock falls in value on the first day of trading, it may lose its
marketability and hence even more of its value.

Investment banks, therefore, take many factors into consideration when pricing
an IPO, and attempt to reach an offering price that is low enough to stimulate
interest in the stock, but high enough to raise an adequate amount of capital for
the company. The process of determining an optimal price usually involves the
underwriters ("syndicate") arranging share purchase commitments from leading
institutional investors.

Issue price
A company that is planning an IPO appoints lead managers to help it decide on
an appropriate price at which the shares should be issued. There are two ways in
which the price of an IPO can be determined: either the company, with the help
of its lead managers, fixes a price or the price is arrived at through the process of
book building.

Note: Not all IPOs are eligible for delivery settlement through the DTC system,
which would then either require the physical delivery of the stock certificates to
the clearing agent bank's custodian, or a delivery versus payment (DVP)
arrangement with the selling group brokerage firm. This information is not
sufficient.
Introduction of IPO in context of Indian market

The Indian primary market has come a long way particularly in the last decade
after deregulation of the Indian economy in 1991-92. Both the primary and
secondary markets have had their fair share of reforms, structural cum policy
changes time to time. The most commendable being the dismantling of the
Controller of Capital Issues (CCI) and introduction of the free pricing mechanism.
This changed the whole facet of Initial Public

Recent Trends

In the last quarter of FY 2007-08, several large equity offerings, including those
from reputable business houses, have struggled to hit their targets. India's stock
markets have been volatile, reacting to fears of a widening global credit crunch
and fears of a U.S. recession. Let's have a glance of IPOs in the Indian primary
market during Jan-March, 2008.

Table 1: IPOs during Jan-March 2008 in India

IPOs
Period
Numbers Amount (Rs. In Crores)
January 2008 9 13,948
February 2008 4 1,893
March 2008 4 493

Fund raising by Indian companies has seen a sharp drop in the last quarter of
financial year 2007-08. This is evident from an analysis of data presented in the
above table.

Largest IPOs of the world


• Industrial & Commercial Bank of China $21.6B in 2006
• NTT Mobile Communications $18.4B in 1998

• AT&T Wireless $10.6B in 2000
• Rosneft $10.4B in 2006
Reliance Power IPO
Reliance Power Ltd has announced that the Board of Directors of the Company
at its meeting held on February 24, 2008, has approved a proposal for issuing
free bonus shares to all categories of shareholders, excluding the promoter
group (comprising of Reliance Energy Ltd. and the ADA Group), in the ratio of 3
shares for every 5 shares held, subject to necessary approvals.
The proposed bonus offering will result in reduction of the cost of Reliance Power
shares below the IPO price as follows:
Rs 269 per share for retail investors, 40% lower than the IPO price of Rs 430.
Rs 281 per share for other investors, 37% lower than the IPO price of Rs 450.

In a related development, Mr. Anil D Ambani, Chairman, Reliance ADA Group, on


February 24, 2008 simultaneously announced a voluntary contribution of 2.6% of
his shareholding in Reliance Power to Reliance Energy Ltd., to protect the
Company from any dilution of its existing 45% stake in Reliance Power, as a
result of the bonus proposal.

Accordingly, Reliance Energy’s stake in Reliance Power will be maintained at the


existing level of 45%, and the revised shareholding pattern of Reliance Power will
be as follows:

-----------------------------------------------
Previous Existing
-----------------------------------------------

Anil D Ambani 45% 40%

Reliance Energy 45% 45%

Public shareholders 10% 15%


-----------------------------------------------

The reduction of Mr. Ambani’s shareholding in Reliance Power by 5% from 45%


to 40%, represents a contribution of nearly Rs 5,000 crore (US$ 1.2 billion) by
him, in favor of nearly 6 million investors in Reliance Energy and Reliance Power.
Commenting on the move, Mr. Ambani said, “I have been personally concerned
by the notional losses arising to millions of long term investors in Reliance Power,
as a result of a dramatic adverse change in sentiment in global and domestic
capital markets, subsequent to the pricing of our IPO.
An overview of Reliance Power IPO:

Fig 1: Price movement bar chart - Reliance Power

The price of Reliance Power is currently moving in a trend (figure 1), but on a close look
it can be identified that the price is not following the trend line perfectly as lot of
deviations exist. One point to note is that the overall movement is upward i.e. the major
trend is Bullish with minor Bullish & Bearish trends. Any decision of whether to buy or
sell the stock cannot be made just by looking at this chart, as the trend is not pretty clear;
and thus other tools are used as described below.

Fig 2: ADX chart - Reliance Power

As shown in figure 2, the ADX value of Reliance Power is high enough (=47.96),
therefore assuring the presence of the trending phase. Thus, the trend follower tools can
be used.
Fig. 3: MACD chart - Reliance Power

Currently, the MACD line (figure 3) is also above the EMA(9) line, therefore further
supporting the trend lines (of figure 1) that the Bullish phase is present. It should be noted
that the gap between the MACD and EMA(9) line is very small, and thus indicating that
Bulls are getting weak. Therefore, there are chances that Bears might get a lead in the
coming sessions.
Fig 4: Bollinger Bands - Reliance Power

In order to further confirm the presence of Bullish phase, Bollinger Bands are drawn with
SMA(20) as the base line (shown in figure 4). As can be seen, the price is moving close
to the upper band therefore approving the Bullish phase. But this also increases the
chances of a trend reversal in the coming sessions. Trend might reverse if the price goes
below the SMA(20) line and is not able to cross it again; thus care has to be taken after
investing.

It is advised to the readers to buy the stock with a target price of Rs. 142. It should be
kept in mind that the current trend is already weakening; therefore care should be taken
after investing.
OBSEVRATION & FINDINGS

 An IPO can be a risky investment. For the individual investor, it is


tough to predict what the stock or shares will do on its initial day
of trading and in the near future since there is often little
historical data with which to analyze the company.

 In case of Reliance Power the shares were oversubscribed 73


times i.e. for 1 share there were 73 applications

 Share market doesn’t responded as the applicants

 On Monday 20th January 2008 the first day of trading of R power.


R power shares along with BSE SENSEX goes done by 17 % of
issued price of Rs.450 to Rs.372.50. BSE goes down by 832
points in sympathy of it Now that was a disaster for retail
investors this is they haven’t dreamed of

 A lot happened between January 15, when Reliance Power first


offered its shares for sale, and its listing. For a start, any hopes
that India might go unscathed following the U.S. sub prime crisis
have long been abandoned.

 It used to be said that the two Ambani brothers [Anil and


Mukesh, chairman of Reliance Industries, India's largest
company] are keeping the stock markets going

 Its found that the common man have faith in Reliance but the
situation were hostile
 This faith is not ambiguous because it is based on Reliance’s past
performance of its equity funds like Reliance vision , diversified
power sector , natural gas & growth funds which are prevailing in
market from past 10 to 12 years & doing well in market

 The performance of Reliance Industries in the market is known


to every investor from past decades

 Due to which thousands of retail investor who are not investing


jumped into the market in recent years moreover they are eager
not to be left out of the profit from Sensex's rapid growth

 Reliance Power was following the trends of major IPOs of other


Asian countries like China’s PetroChina which is one of the most
valuable company on paper since its shares rose to 163 % in
November 2008

 PetroChina’s share fall by 50 % following the same trend the


Indian companies slated 15 IPO for 2008 will now be postponed,
CONCLUSION

“The study is on Reliance Power IPO in Indian context “ Some of the


major facts which we have found are as follow

 Brand image of Reliance industry specially the image of Anil


Dhiru bhai Ambani Group company Reliance Power.
 The Reliance is Trusted brand .
 Indian Retail investors have faith in the name of Reliance
 The affect on share market of Reliance Power IPO is positive but
the situation of world market were hostile and due to which an
adverse growth of Reliance Power equity was witnessed .
 The reputation of Reliance is so good that sentiment of investor
are euphoric initially towards any offering made by the company
.
 The projects of Reliance Power are gigantic in nature and the
investment return will need time to payback to its investor
 Presently Reliance is one of the largest portfolios of power
generation under development in India
 Reliance is Capitalizing on the growth of the Indian Power Sector
SUGGESTIONS
 Company should take in account the world market scenario
before making any offering to public

 The customer should also be rational while investing in IPOs

 Proper allocation of fund should be done by the investor to


ascertain what quantum of fund is sufficient for investment

 A proper study of the global financial arena should be done &


constraint which will hinder the growth of our investment should
be well think of before investing

 For the development of the whole economy companies should


rethink their strategies
