 "L&T Infotech plans to raise over Rs 2,000 crore via IPO")
L&T Infotech is looking to raise over Rs 2,000 crore through initial public offer (IPO) in the fourth quarter of the current fiscal to fund its expansion plans.
The company is planning an over Rs 2,000 crore IPO in the last quarter of 2015-16 and the proceeds will be used to fund its future growth plans, a company official told PTI here.
L&T Infotech, a subsidiary of engineering & construction major Larsen & Toubro, figures among India's top 10 IT service providers.
"The issue comprises an offer for sale of up to 1.75 crore equity shares of the face value Re 1 each by Larsen & Toubro," it had said in a filing.
The IT firm, which clocked a revenue of Rs 5,070 crore in FY 2015, is looking for strategic acquisition opportunities in relation to its IMS business, said the official without divulging much due to regulatory considerations.
The company's revenues in FY15 from continuing operations from North America and Europe constituted 68.6 per cent and 17.9 per cent, respectively.
It is currently looking to pursue strategic acquisitions in Germany and France to enhance capabilities and address gaps in language capability, industry & technical expertise and geographic coverage in these countries.
L&T Infotech was named as one of the 'Star Performers' and 'Major Contenders' in Everest Group's PEAK Matrix Assessment 2015 for global insurance service provider.
"This achievement signifies our ability to help our clients realise critical business outcomes and growth in a highly competitive environment. We will continue to build capabilities in the areas of automation and digitisation to differentiate our offerings, L&T Infotech Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director Sanjay Jalona said.
L&T Infotech clients include 41 of the Fortune Global 500 companies.
