PISCATAWAY, N.J., Oct. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BHAV Acquisition Corp II (the “Company” or “BHAV”) today announced the closing of its previously announced initial public offering of 10,000,000 units (the “Offering”) at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one right. Each right entitles the holder to receive one-fourth (1/4) of one Class A ordinary share upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. The units began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “BHAIU” on October 29, 2026. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the Class A ordinary shares and rights are expected to trade on Nasdaq under the symbols “BHAI” and “BHAIR,” respectively.
Concurrently with the closing of the Offering, the Company closed on a private placement of 225,000 private placement units purchased by BHAV Partners II LLC, the Company’s sponsor, at a price of $10.00 per unit, resulting in gross proceeds of $2,250,000. The private placement units are identical to the units sold in the Offering, subject to limited exceptions described in the prospectus relating to the Offering. Of the proceeds received from the consummation of the Offering and concurrent private placement, an amount equal to $100,500,000 (or $10.05 per unit sold in the Offering) was deposited into a trust account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee upon the closing of the Offering.
BHAV intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering and the concurrent private placement of units to pursue and consummate a business combination. BHAV is led by Giri Devanur, Chief Executive Officer and Director, and Chaitanya Kumar Setti, Chief Financial Officer and Director.
