Sunil Dahiya: What is happening is that we imported certain professionals from other industries and somewhere the vision and mission of the promoter was fueled by their greed or professionalism. They called it financial engineering. And that was the reason we got blocked from the IPO market. Today, whoever has filed DRHP, is going to face so much scrutiny and the band value itself will be discounted by 30%.

Sunil Dahiya: I will share a very personal experience. There was an IRS officer who was monitoring these IPOs at some level and said to me ‘Sunil you watch these IPOs, these are going to be windfall IPOs and then you will see watershed.

Ravi Sinha: One issue which Sunil raised on funding mechanism that it was a strategic mistake by certain developers to raise money through IPOs. I would like to rake this issue again and seek the panel’s view.
