Solution
The secondary market is more commonly known as the stock market or the stock exchange. Here, the previously issued securities are bought and sold by investors. There is no fresh issue. After the IPO, when the shares are listed on the stock exchange, they can be traded in the secondary market. In this market, securities are traded between investors. The main difference between the primary and secondary markets is that in the primary market only new securities are issued, whereas in the secondary market the already existing securities are traded.

ISQM SOLAR Limited is searching for options to raise Rs. 20,000 crores from the primary market for diversification and modernisation of existing projects. It hired the services of a renowned financial consultancy firm, DHAN LAXMI Pvr LTD. to suggest options for the same. DHAN LAXMI PVI LTD. suggested a list of options to the Board of Directors of the company. It was decided that for the immediate requirement of Rs. 1,500 crores, the company will give a privilege to existing shareholders to subscribe to a new issue of shares according to the terms and conditions of the company. Rs. 4,500 crores would be raised by allotment of securities to a consortium of financial institutions, instead of inviting subscription from the public by making a direct appeal to investors to raise capital. It was further decided to raise capital to the tune of Rs. 6,000 crores through an issuing house. All these options were accepted by the Board of Directors. The Board further decided to raise Rs. 8,000 crores through the online system of the stock exchange by entering into an agreement with the exchange.
