Solar EPC company Rays Power Infra has filed preliminary papers with capital markets regulator Sebi to raise funds through an initial share sale.

The Initial Public Offering (IPO) comprises a fresh issuance of equity shares worth up to Rs 300 crore and an offer for sale component of up to 29.95 lakh shares by its promoters, according to the draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) filed on Dec. 29.

Under the offer for sale, Ketan Mehta will sell up to 14.37 lakh equity shares, while Pawan Kumar Sharma and Sanjay Garudapally will offload 7.78 lakh shares each through the public issue.

Anand Rathi Advisors Ltd and Unistone Capital Pvt Ltd are the book running lead managers, while Bigshare Services Pvt Ltd is the registrar for the IPO.

The company's equity shares are proposed to be listed on the BSE and the National Stock Exchange (NSE).
