The result has already been published on the websites of Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE), Chittagong Stock Exchange (CSE), the company and the issue manager.
Aman Cotton floated a total of 20.83 million ordinary shares and raised a fund worth Tk 800 million from the capital market under the book-building method.
Of the total 20.83 million shares, 12.50 million shares issued to eligible investors at the cut-off price of Tk 40 each which was set by the eligible investors through electronic bidding in November last year.
Remaining 8.33 million shares will be issued to general public, including affected small investors and non-resident Bangladeshis, at 10 per cent discount on the cut-off price, meaning they will get each share at Tk 36 each.
