It also approved the opening of the issue from March 9. The panel approved the floor price for the issue at Rs 1,513.39.
Godrej Properties did not disclose the amount it has proposed to raise through QIP.
On Monday, its shareholders approved the proposal to raise up to Rs 3,750 crore through the issue of securities.
The Mumbai-based developer informed, in a regulatory filing, that a special resolution in this regard was approved by shareholders with the requisite majority.
Godrej Properties had sought shareholders’ approval through a postal ballot.
The special resolution was to approve the raising of funds in one or more tranches by the issuance of securities for an amount not exceeding Rs 3,750 crore.
Last month, the board approved the raising of the capital.
“We have taken an enabling resolution. We will see now in the next few weeks and months whether to actually do anything on it. If we choose to do that, rational would be to acquire projects at attractive valuations,” Godrej Properties Chairman Pirojsha Godrej had told in an interview last month.
According to an investor presentation, the company’s sales bookings rose 25 per cent to Rs 1,488 crore in the third quarter of this fiscal year.
