IPOs This Week: Hyundai Motor India To Enter Primary Market, Two SMEs Offers In Pipeline

The primary market is gearing up for its biggest IPO yet as Hyundai Motor India Ltd. is set to launch an offering next week, aiming to raise over Rs 27,000 crore. This marks the largest IPO in India’s history, surpassing Life Insurance Corporation of India's Rs 21,000-crore issue in 2022, and the biggest global IPO of 2024 so far. Hyundai will be the first automaker to list in India in over two decades.

• IPO Dates: Oct. 15–17, 2024

• Price Band: Rs 1,865−1,960 per share

• Total Issue Size: Rs 27,870 crore (Offer for Sale: 14.2 crore shares)

• Minimum Lot Size: 7 shares

The proceeds will go entirely to selling promoter Hyundai Motor Company, as the IPO is an entirely offer for sale play, meaning Hyundai Motor India will not receive any direct funds from the issue.

Lakshya Powertech, providing EPC services for power generation and the oil & gas sector, will use the funds for debt repayment, working capital, and general corporate purposes. They currently have orders worth Rs 265+ crore.

• Dates: October 17–21, 2024
