Rajasthan-based Mangal Electrical Industries plans to approach the primary market to raise Rs 450 crore via an initial public offering for its capacity expansion and working capital requirements. It has filed a draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) with the SEBI on December 24.
The IPO consists of an entirely fresh issue by the company, with no offer-for-sale component, hence the company received the entire IPO proceeds.
The transformer components manufacturer may raise up to Rs 90 crore (pre-IPO placement) before the filing of red herring prospectus with the Registrar of Companies for the IPO launch. If it is able to complete a pre-IPO placement, the said amount will be reduced from the fresh issue.
With five production facilities in Rajasthan, Mangal Electrical Industries also manufactures transformers and customised products in the power infrastructure industry, with transformers capacities ranging from single-phase 5 KVA to three-phase 10 MVA (medium power) units. It also provides EPC services for setting up electrical substations, catering to the power infrastructure sector.

Mangal Electrical will utilise Rs 96.03 crore out of fresh issue funds for repaying its debt. It had outstanding borrowings of Rs 209.05 crore as of November 15, 2024.
Further, Rs 120 crore will be used for expanding the facility at Unit IV at Sikar, Rajasthan, and civil works at its existing head office, Jaipur, Rajasthan to optimize space usage and increase storage capacity, while the Rs 122 crore will be utilised for working capital requirements, and the remaining IPO money for general corporate purposes.
