The allotment for Upper Lohore Hydropower Company Limited’s Initial Public Offering (IPO) was completed today at Kaji Kitchen, Battisputali, Kathmandu. NICA Asia Capital acted as the issue manager for this IPO. The company had initially issued 19,53,279 IPO shares with a face value of Rs 100 each to the public from 18th to 22nd Shrawan, 2080.
Earlier, the company had also issued 509,804 shares worth Rs. 5.09 crores to locals affected by the project in Dailekh District. However, only 206,760 units (40.55%) of these shares were allocated to eligible applicants.

This brought the total number of units available to the general public to 22,91,280.
