Mumbai, December 12, 2025 – Aspri Spirits Limited, a Mumbai-headquartered powerhouse in the premium alco-beverage sector, has submitted its Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) to the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) for an Initial Public Offering (IPO). This strategic move highlights the company's entrenched leadership and unwavering commitment to excellence in importing, marketing, and distributing world-class spirits across India and South Asia.

The IPO comprises a fresh issue of equity shares with a face value of Rs5 each, aggregating up to Rs140 crore, alongside an offer for sale of 5,000,000 equity shares by promoters—including Jaikishan Sham Matai, Matai Jackie Sham HUF, Gautam Nandkishore Matai, Arunkumar Venkat Bangalore, Duru Matai, Kajal Matai, and Vrutika Matai—and other selling shareholders such as Parameshwari Narang, Emerald Electronics Private Limited, Pavan Narang, and Whiteline Impex Private Limited. Proceeds from the fresh issue, totaling Rs76 crore, will support the repayment or pre-payment of outstanding borrowings for the company and its subsidiaries—Vinspri Distributors Private Limited, P M Marketing Private Limited, Asdis Drinks India Private Limited, and Aspri Spirits FZE—along with Rs29 crore earmarked for investments in these subsidiaries to address their borrowings, and the balance for general corporate purposes.

Financially, Aspri demonstrates resilient performance and steady expansion. Revenues from operations climbed to Rs460.6 crore in fiscal 2025, marking a solid 22% increase from Rs378.2 crore in fiscal 2024. In the June 2025 quarter, revenues reached Rs119.5 crore, with net profit at Rs9.8 crore, reflecting the company's operational prowess and market traction.

Structured via the book-building process in accordance with SEBI's ICDR Regulations, the issue allocates up to 50% to Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs), not less than 15% to Non-Institutional Investors (NIIs), and at least 35% to Retail Individual Investors (RIIs). Aspri, in consultation with book-running lead managers Motilal Investment Advisors Private Limited and Nuvama Wealth Management Limited, may pursue a pre-IPO placement of up to Rs28 crore, which, if undertaken, would accordingly adjust the fresh issue size. Bigshare Services Private Limited serves as the registrar, with equity shares slated for listing on the BSE and NSE.
