QIP

A Qualified Institutions Placement is a way listed Indian companies raise equity from institutional investors.

QIPs are governed by SEBI ICDR norms and are aimed at qualified institutional buyers.

They are typically faster than a full public follow-on offer.

Pricing often references a floor linked to recent market prices under regulatory formulas.

Announcements of QIPs can affect float, promoter stake percentages, and near-term supply.
