Sinha lauds ICICI listing on NYSER C Murthy in Washington Finance Minister Yashwant Sinha lauded ICICI Limited on its successful launch of its ADR issue on the New York Stock Exchange last week. The first Indian corporate instrument listed on the NYSE, the ADR has been trading around $11-9/12 against the launch price of $9.8 -- a premium of about 18 per cent, said K V Kamath, ICICI managing director. That is party because ICICI managed to have some bulk subscriptions. As a result, the floating stock of the issue, which was oversubscribed six times, is limited and the NRI appetite for the instrument is growing. Singapore government is said to have applied for 1.2 million ADRs. Several top mutual funds, including Capital Finance, had queued up for allocation. ALSO SEE
