BOOK BUILDING PROCESS
SEBI guidelines, 1995 defined book-building as “a process
undertaken by which a demand for the securities
proposed to be issued by a body of corporate is elicited
and built up and the price for such securities is assessed
for the determination of the quantum of such securities to
be issued by means of a notice, circular, advertisement,
document or information memoranda or offer document”.

It was introduced by SEBI on recommendations of Mr. Y.H. Malegam in October 1995.
It is most practical, fast and efficient management of Mega Issues. Book Building involves sale of securities to the public and the institutional bidders on the basis of predetermined price range.

SEBI’s Guidelines
After the price has been determined on the basis of bidding, statutory public advertisements for a continuous three days containing, inter alia, the price as well as a table showing the number of securities and the amount payable by an investor, based on the price determined, shall be issued and the interval between the advertisement and issue opening date should be a minimum of five days.
The draft prospectus to be circulated has to indicate the price band within which the securities are being offered for subscription. The bids have to be within the price bands. Bidding is permissible only if an electronically-linked transparent facility is used. An issuing company can also fix a minimum bid size. An initial bid can be changed before the final rate is determined.

GREENSHOE OPTION
The GSO means “an option of allocating shares in excess of the shares included in the public issue and operating a post-listing price stabilising mechanism through a stabilising agent (SA).”
Basically a process of stabilising demand and supply imbalances.
A book runner is appointed as stabilising agent(SA).
16
Book Building process aims at fair pricing of the issue which is supposed to emerge out of offers made by various investors.
“Is it the right mechanism?”- As a floor price is fixed below which bidding cannot be done.
India has not reached the stage of development of the institutional framework to experiment with the book building process because retail investors (i.e. individual investors) are still now an integral part of Indian capital market. If the interests of the small investors are not safeguarded appropriately, this may be very dangerous to the primary capital market.

FRENCH AUCTION MODEL
Recent FPOs like NTPC, REC and NMDC followed this model for their pricing.
Under this alternative book building model, institutional buyers would be free to bid above a certain floor price and the allotment would be on price-priority basis and at differential prices.
The model seeks to get higher valuation of the institutional part of the shares.
