Astonea Labs, a company that makes medicines and beauty products under contract for other businesses (this is called contract manufacturing), is getting ready to offer its shares to the public for the first time. This offering, known as an Initial Public Offering (IPO), is for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The company works with clients in India and other countries.

The Astonea Labs IPO is a book-built issue planned to raise ₹37.67 Crore. This amount will come entirely from selling 27.9 lakh new shares of the company, meaning no shares are being sold by existing owners. The money raised is intended for several uses, including paying for registration steps in Bolivia, buying and setting up machinery for making ointments, funding advertising and marketing efforts, investing in necessary computer equipment, covering daily business costs (working capital needs), and other general company purposes.

  • Minimum Application: 1,000 shares (1 lot)

  • For retail investors, the minimum and maximum application is 1 lot, amounting to ₹1.35 Lakh at the highest price.
