The primary market is ready for an active week as Tata Capital Ltd and LG Electronics India Ltd are going to launch their IPOs. Together they are valued at over Rs 27,000 crore. Both these issues may attract good investor demand considering their size and the strong reputation of their parent groups. The offerings come after a huge demand in India for IPO even as the broader equity market faces challenges.
Apart from these two mega IPOs, Rubicon Research’s Rs 1,377.5 crore public issue would open on October 9, and WeWork India Management’s Rs 3,000 crore public offering is currently underway.
The Rs 15,512 crore Tata Capital IPO, the largest issue of the year, will open for subscription on October 6 and close on October 8. The offering comprises a fresh issue of 21 crore shares and an offer for sale (OFS) of 26.58 crore shares.
At the upper end of the Rs 310 to Rs 326 per share price band, the non-banking financial company is valued at around Rs 1.38 lakh crore.
Under the OFS component, Tata Sons will offload 23 crore shares, while the International Finance Corporation (IFC) will divest 3.58 crore shares.
The proceeds from the fresh issue will be used to strengthen Tata Capital’s Tier-1 capital base, supporting future growth and lending operations.
Currently, Tata Sons holds an 88.6 per cent stake, and IFC owns 1.8 per cent.
For FY25, Tata Capital reported a profit after tax of Rs 3,655 crore, up from Rs 3,327 crore in FY24, while revenue surged to Rs 28,313 crore from Rs 18,175 crore a year earlier.
Following closely, LG Electronics India Ltd, the Indian arm of South Korea’s LG conglomerate, will open its Rs 11,607 crore IPO for subscription from October 7 to October 9.
This will be the second South Korean firm to tap Indian markets after Hyundai Motors India’s listing last year.
Also, LG Electronics India’s issue will be the third-largest IPO of 2025, following Tata Capital’s upcoming Rs 15,512 crore issue and HDB Financial Services’ Rs 12,500 crore listing in June.
The LG IPO, entirely an offer for sale (OFS) of 10.18 crore shares, representing a 15 per cent stake, will not bring in any proceeds to the Indian unit, as all funds will go to the South Korea-based parent.
The price band has been set at Rs 1,080 to Rs 1,140 per share, valuing the company at about Rs 77,400 crore.
The South Korean firm is a leading player in consumer electronics and home appliances, manufacturing products such as washing machines, refrigerators, LED TVs, air conditioners, and microwaves at its Noida and Pune plants.
LG Electronics India’s revenue from operations was Rs 24,366.64 crore for FY25 compared to Rs 21,352 crore in the preceding year. Its net profit rose to Rs 2,203 crore from Rs 1,511 crore.
