A-One Steels India’s IPO is scheduled to finish bidding on 28 September 2026. Beyond the offer size, two documents merit attention: the allocation for borrowing repayment and a correction issued before the subscription window opened.
₹250 crore earmarked for borrowings
The issuer’s abridged prospectus proposes ₹250 crore for repayment or prepayment of certain borrowings, with deployment in financial year 2027. This is a planned use of proceeds, not confirmation that debt has already been extinguished.
The issuer describes a ₹405 crore offer comprising ₹355 crore of fresh shares and a ₹50 crore offer for sale. Secondary-sale proceeds belong to selling shareholders, rather than becoming new company funds. Expenses also separate gross fresh fundraising from net proceeds.
The debt allocation equals approximately 70.4% of the stated ₹355 crore gross fresh issue. CapKet calculated that ratio from the disclosed amounts. It measures the proposed allocation, not the percentage of total company debt that will necessarily disappear.
What the September 17 correction changed
A corrigendum to the price-band advertisement replaced 90,20,779 with 92,20,779 as the fresh-issue share count at the ₹385 floor price. The corrected figure is 200,000 shares higher. The notice also states a ₹405 cap price.
This corrects an advertised share count; it does not establish a new increase in the rupee fundraising target on closing day. The corrigendum preceded the September 24 opening.
What remains to be verified
The issuer’s timetable runs from September 24 to September 28. No current subscription multiple, listing premium or price target is verified in this report. Final pricing and eventual repayment disclosures will be separate evidence from the proposed uses.
The earlier A-One Steels offer-structure report remains available as the opening-day record.
