AIM or Alternative Investment Market is a sub-set of the London Stock Exchange: what the London School of Economics called, the world’s leading stock market for young and growing companies.
In October 2007, Ishaan Real Estate, a real estate investment company incorporated in the Isle of Man, picked up 40% stake in eight real estate projects promoted by the Indian real estate major, K Raheja Corporation.
| DARE/India-related companies listed in AIM since 2005 |
| Platinum Mining Corporation, Hardy Oil & Gas, Great Eastern Energy, Trinity Capital, Eredene Capital, Eros International, Noida Toll Bridge, India Hospitality, KSK Power Venture, Ishaan Real Estate, HIRCO, DEV Property Development, Naya Bharat Property, Evolvence India, Promethean India, Dhir India Investments, Indian Film Company, Greenko Group, UTV Motion Pictures, DQ Entertainment, West Pioneer Properties, Unitech Corporate Parks. |
The Rs. 1082 crore required for the deal was raised in AIM (Alternative Investment Market) - a sub-market of LSE (London Stock Exchange) - by Ishaan November last year.

AIM was started in 1995 as an alternative market for smaller or early-stage companies worldwide who could neither meet the stringent eligibility criteria nor afford the capital requirements for a main-market listing. Over the years, around 2300 companies have listed on AIM, 400 of them being non-UK companies. Around 1000 have delisted for various reasons; some of them having transferred to the main market of the LSE. Out of the currently listed 1600, around 300 from outside the UK.

| “For non-UK companies like ours, AIM has helped raising money in an efficient manner. Besides, we have high quality investors who have invested in Ishaan. We were also attracted by the speed at which tcapital could be raised through the AIM. Liquidity on AIM has, however, not been very encouraging since few investors, as a part of their investment strategy, are not very aggressive with investments in AIM listed companies”. — Neel Raheja, Director Ishaan |
The beauty of an AIM listing is that there are no eligibility criteria! No minimum company size, no requirement of a track record, no minimum number of shares and no threshold market capitalization to keep up with! That, however, does not mean that anybody could come up and get themselves listed. No. The deterrent is the exhaustive due-diligence process conducted by a Nomad. A Nomad – Nominated Advisor - is a merchant banker or financial consultant and equivalent to a Lead Manager in India. S/he establishes the transparency of your financial and accounting systems and ensures that your company is suitable for a listing in AIM. You are required, at all times, to have a Nomad. The due-diligence that a wannabe AIM company is required to go through followed subsequently by the intensive admission and filing process, screens out possible corporate jaywalkers.
22 India-related companies, some of the more well-known ones being Unitech, Eros International, UTV Motion Pictures and Noida Toll Bridge, have listed themselves in the AIM. Their collective capitalization in the exchange lies somewhere around $ 3.5 bn! Institutional investors such as Fidelity, Goldman Sachs, Gartmore and Bank of New York have been regulars at the AIM.
A company looking for an AIM-listing could have much more than money on mind. Companies looking for overseas acquisitions can easily use their shares listed in AIM as currency or those looking for widening their shareholder base and providing exit to existing ones find AIM a faster way towards globalization.
You are required to have a Nomad and an approved broker at all times. The LSE website maintains a running register of AIM-authorized Nomads and stock-brokers. A Nomad is authorized by the LSE in playing the role of a hand holder and advisor, over an above conducting the due-diligence process. S/he has three specific duties – conducting due-diligence, managing the flotation process which also includes helping the company in preparing the required documents compliant with AIM rules and the process of listing, and making sure that the company directors are made aware of the obligations and disclosures that an AIM-listing requires. Since, a Nomad is your ticket to a listing, you need to convince him/ her of your suitability for a listing. “Typically, a Nomad gives a green signal to the company only if s/he is convinced that the concerned company will increase the market’s reputation and has a good chance of being able to deliver the promised value to its shareholders”.
