Mumbai-based diamond-studded gold and platinum fine jewellery maker Priority Jewels has filed preliminary papers with Sebi on April 30 to raise funds via a maiden public issue, in an effort to reduce debt.
The IPO will consist of solely fresh issue of 54 lakh shares with no offer-for-sale component.
The company plans to utilise Rs 75 crore out of net fresh issue proceeds for repayment of debt, and the remainder funds for general corporate purposes.
As of March 2025, "we had total borrowings of Rs 147.1 crore," Priority Jewels said in its draft papers.
Priority Jewels sells gold and platinum jewellery directly to independent jewellers and jewellery chains in India, including CaratLane Trading, Kalyan Jewellers, Malabar Gold & Diamonds, Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri, and Senco Gold.
