Veegaland Developers Limited, the real estate arm of the V-Guard Group, has filed its Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) with SEBI to launch an Initial Public Offering (IPO).

Chittilappilly’s previous ventures have been market favourites: V-Guard Industries debuted in 2008, followed by Wonderla Holidays in 2014. He is now targeting an IPO of around ₹250 crore for Veegaland Developers in the first half of 2026.

From mid-premium to ultra-luxury

The company focuses on the planning, development, and sale of residential apartment projects in Kerala, catering to segments ranging from mid-premium to ultra-luxury. It operates under the brand name Veegaland Homes.

100% fresh issue

According to the Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) filed with SEBI, the proposed IPO will be a 100% fresh issue, with no offer-for-sale (OFS) component.
