Shreeji Shipping, Patel Retail to float IPOs on Aug 19
According to their Red Herring Prospectus (RHP), the IPOs will close on August 21, and the one-day bidding for anchor investors is scheduled for August 18.
The two companies will announce the price band for their public issues on Monday.
So far this year, 44 mainboard companies have launched their IPOs. In addition, two IPOs of BlueStone Jewellery and Lifestyle will open on August 11, followed by the issue of agro-based firm Regaal Resources on August 12.
Going by the RHP, Shreeji Shipping Global's IPO is an entirely fresh issue of 1.63 crore equity shares with no offer for sale (OFS) component.
The company plans to utilise Rs 251.2 crore from the IPO proceeds for the acquisition of dry bulk carriers in the supramax category on the secondary market, and Rs 23 crore for debt repayment.
The flagship company of Jamnagar-based Shreeji Group primarily focuses on non-major ports and jetties, particularly along the west coast of India.
Patel Retail's IPO is a mix of a fresh issue of 85.18 lakh shares and an OFS of 10.02 lakh shares of promoters, according to the RHP.
As per merchant banking sources, the IPO size is expected to be Rs 250 crore to Rs 300 crore.
Proceeds from the fresh issuance to the tune of Rs 59 crore will be used for payment of debt, Rs 115 crore for funding of working capital requirements of the company, and a portion will be used for general corporate purposes.
Patel Retail was established in 2008 with the launch of its first store in Ambernath, Maharashtra. Since then, it has expanded its operations throughout the suburban regions of Thane and the Raigad district in Maharashtra.
The company provides a diverse range of products including food, non-food items, general merchandise, and apparel to meet the needs of families. It operates in tier-III cities and nearby suburban areas under the brand 'Patel's R Mart'.
Shares of the two companies are expected to begin trading on the bourses from August 26. PTI SP MR

8th Pay Commission: When will it get implemented, how much will salary increase for central government employees? All we know so far
8th pay commission update 8th Pay Commission update: The central government employees and pensioners are closely watching for updates on the 8th Pay Commission, a panel expected to recommend a major hike in salaries and pensions by revising the pay structure currently in place since 2016. Readers should note that the 7th Pay Commission is set to expire in January, 2026, no update yet about the 8th Pay Commission has been announced yet. However, here are all the details you should know about what's expected from the 8th Pay Commission. 8th Pay Commission: How much salary would rise? Currently, central government employees earn a median monthly salary of Rs 1 lakh before tax. Based on different budget allocations, the firm projected possible salary increases. If the government allocates Rs 1.75 lakh crore for the 8th Pay Commission, and half of this amount is used for salary revision while the rest is for pensions, the median salary could rise to Rs 1,14,600 per month. If the allocation increases to Rs 2 lakh crore, salaries may go up to Rs 1,16,700 per month, and with an allocation of Rs 2.25 lakh crore, the median salary could reach Rs 1,18,800 per month. 7th Pay Commission vs 8th Pay Commission? For comparison, the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission in 2016 had cost the government Rs 1.02 lakh crore, according to the report. Although the revised salaries and pensions were applied retrospectively from January 2016, they were actually rolled out from July 2016, impacting the financial year 2016-17, said Goldman Sachs. How will 8th Pay Commission decide new salaries? Once formed, the 8th Pay Commission will consult with various stakeholders to determine the fitment factor and other details regarding salary and pension revisions. Employee unions have hinted that they may demand a fitment factor of 2.57 or higher, similar to what was recommended under the 7th Pay Commission. When will 8th Pay Commission be implemented? Although the 7th Pay Commission is set to expire in January, 2026, no update yet about the 8th Pay Commission has been announced yet. (With inputs from agencies)

Op Sindoor Showcases India's Indigenous Might To Crush Enemies: Rajnath Singh
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday said Operation Sindoor was a testament to India's ability to crush its enemies using indigenous capabilities, asserting that the country would not spare those who challenge its sovereignty. Laying the foundation stone of BEML's Greenfield Rail Manufacturing facility BRAHMA in Umariya, Madhya Pradesh, the Defence Minister described the recent military operation as a 'befitting reply' to the 'heinous and cowardly' terrorist attack on civilians in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. 'We do not provoke anyone, but those who provoke us will not be spared,' he said. The Defence Minister emphasised that the success of Operation Sindoor reflected India's growing self-reliance and self-confidence in the defence sector. 'The Armed Forces effectively utilised indigenous equipment, which played a pivotal role in the operation's success. India was able to reach this position only because it has pledged to become Aatmanirbhar in the defence sector,' he said. Crediting Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership for transforming the defence landscape, Singh noted that India is now manufacturing world-class equipment domestically and supplying it to friendly nations. 'Our defence production and exports are increasing at an unprecedented pace and have touched record figures. This is the new defence sector of the new India,' he said. It may be recalled that, in the Financial Year 2024-25, annual defence production soared to an all-time high figure of Rs 1.51 lakh crore and defence exports touched a record Rs 23,622 crore,' he said. Highlighting the nation's economic progress, Singh said India's economy is growing at about 6.5 per cent annually and is on course to become the world's third-largest economy. He reiterated the government's resolve to achieve the goal of Viksit Bharat by 2047, with defence self-reliance forming a crucial pillar of national security and economic strength. Referring to the BRAHMA project, Singh said initiatives like this are essential for building the technological and industrial base needed for both defence and civilian sectors. He lauded BEML for its role in strengthening the country's mobility solutions and urged a greater focus on research and development.
