The National Stock Exchange (NSE) recently launched an IPO of Rs 22,562 crore, making it the second-largest issue in India. Jio Platforms is proposing to issue up to 270 million new equity shares through its initial public offering (IPO), which would account for about 2.9% of the company's post-issue equity capital, according to its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP). The IPO will comprise only a fresh issue and will not have an offer-for-sale (OFS) component. The proposed listing will mark the first IPO by the Reliance Industries group in almost 20 years. The group last came to the public markets in 2006 with the listing of Reliance Petroleum. Jio Platforms plans to deploy part of the IPO proceeds towards the prepayment of up to ₹27,500 crore of borrowings at Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd (RJIL), its operating subsidiary. The balance will be utilised for general corporate purposes. According to the DRHP, Jio Platforms could transfer funds to RJIL by subscribing to equity shares, convertible or non-convertible preference shares or debentures. It may also provide the funds through loans or a combination of these routes. Institutional and other large investors together own nearly 30.9% of Jio Platforms. Meta Platforms affiliate Jaadhu Holdings has a 9.98% stake, while Google International owns 7.73%. The investor group also includes Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, affiliates of Silver Lake and Vista Equity, General Atlantic, KKR-backed entities and investment vehicles managed by the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.
