Inside Jio’s Mega IPO Jio Platforms has set a price band of ₹1,065–₹1,119 per share for the IPO, which opened on October 21 and closes today. At the upper end, the ₹30,213 Cr (about $3.2 Bn) offering surpasses Hyundai Motor India’s ₹27,870 Cr issue to become India’s largest IPO and values Jio Platforms at around ₹10.3 Lakh Cr (about $108 Bn). Ahead of the public issue, Jio Platforms raised ₹8,109.8 Cr from anchor investors by allotting about 7.25 Cr shares at ₹1,119 apiece. Participants included HDFC Mutual Fund, ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, SBI Mutual Fund, BlackRock, the Government of Singapore, and Abu Dhabi Investment Authority. The IPO comprises a fresh issue of up to 27 Cr equity shares, with no offer-for-sale component. Jio plans to use ₹27,500 Cr to prepay certain borrowings of its telecom subsidiary, Reliance Jio Infocomm (RJIL), with the remaining proceeds earmarked for general corporate purposes. The debt repayment makes the offering partly a balance sheet exercise, while its growth prospects depend on expanding beyond telecom connectivity into broadband, cloud services, enterprise solutions, and AI. RJIL had 533.3 Mn customers as of June 30, 2026, while Jio’s network carried around 60% of India’s wireless data traffic in FY26. Jio Platforms’ operating revenue rose nearly 15% YoY to ₹1.47 Lakh Cr in FY26, while net profit increased 15.1% to ₹30,049 Cr.
