As we stand on 16th April 2025, this week may feel empty for investors, as Dalal Street witnessed a complete pause in IPOS after a long time. This will be the first IPO-free week since 2024. But this is not just a coincidence, as March 25 was historically low, the first month in over a year without a single mainboard IPO—a mix of global uncertainties, market corrections, and caution around the US President’s tariff announcements.
Dry Spell, But A Stream Of IPOs Await
Although this week is IPO-free, a stream of big-ticket IPOs is lined up in the coming months of 2025. Let’s have a look at some of the upcoming IPOs:
Reliance Jio Infocomm is expected to lead the charge, which can become India’s largest IPO ever. Reliance’s telecom arm is expected to raise Rs 40,000 at a valuation of Rs 10 lakh crore (approx $120 billion). This launch can happen in Q2 or Q3 this year, although timelines are not yet confirmed.
A close competitor to Reliance IPO is Tata Capital, planning to raise Rs 15,000 crore by combining 23 crore new shares and an offer for sale (OFS) by current shareholders. Currently, Tata Capital Pre IPO share is traded privately in the unlisted market.
