Jio Platforms Prepares Largest Indian IPO, Valued Around Rs 11 Lakh Crore
Jio Platforms is preparing for a landmark IPO expected to raise around Rs 30,000 crore, valuing the company at approximately Rs 10.3 to 11 lakh crore. This would make it India's largest IPO, offering investors direct access to Reliance's digital and telecom business. Analysts note that Bharti Airtel's current valuation discount to Jio may narrow post-listing. Proceeds from the IPO are planned to repay Rs 27,000 crore in debt, potentially lowering costs and supporting growth. The listing could prompt sector re-rating and tariff hikes, with Airtel positioned to benefit from premium subscribers and improved pricing.
