Jio Platforms Plans IPO Valuation Near Rs 11 Lakh Crore with October Listing Target
Jio Platforms, the telecom and digital arm of Reliance Industries, is preparing for its initial public offering (IPO) targeting a valuation of around Rs 11 lakh crore (approximately $114 billion). The IPO is expected to open in the week of October 19 and list before October 30, potentially making it India's largest-ever listing and the third most valuable publicly traded company. The offering will comprise fresh shares without an offer-for-sale, and investor meetings are underway to finalize pricing. The IPO is anticipated to impact valuations of Reliance Industries and Bharti Airtel, Jio's main competitor.
