Mumbai, India – The financial landscape of India is on the verge of a seismic shift as Tata Capital Limited, the non-banking financial arm of the venerable Tata Group, prepares to launch its massive Initial Public Offering (IPO). This highly anticipated offering, estimated at crore (approximately billion), is set to open for public subscription on October 6, 2025, and promises to be the largest listing ever witnessed in the country’s financial sector. This landmark event, as reported by mfnewsdaily.in, fulfills a critical regulatory mandate and marks the second major listing from the Tata Group in as many years.
Key Details and Regulatory Drive
The IPO’s structure is a combination of fresh capital injection and a significant divestment by key shareholders. The total offer comprises 47.58 crore equity shares. Of this, 21 crore shares constitute a fresh issue, the proceeds of which are earmarked to bolster Tata Capital’s Tier-1 capital base, providing a war chest to support future lending and aggressive business growth.
The remaining 26.58 crore shares are part of an Offer for Sale (OFS), with promoter Tata Sons set to divest 23 crore shares and the International Finance Corporation (IFC) selling crore shares. Tata Sons currently holds of Tata Capital, while IFC owns . The anchor investor bidding is scheduled for October 3, 2025, with the main subscription window closing on October 8.
The impetus behind this mega-listing is regulatory compliance. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) mandated that all upper-layer NBFCs must be listed within three years of their classification. Tata Capital received this designation in September 2022, making the public issue a non-negotiable step toward adherence. According to a detailed analysis by mfnewsdaily.in, the successful completion of this IPO, which targets a valuation of roughly billion, will solidify Tata Capital’s position among India’s financial behemoths and ensure it meets the RBI’s listing deadline.
Business Performance and Market Significance
Tata Capital has demonstrated robust financial growth leading up to its market debut. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025 (FY25), the company posted a Profit After Tax (PAT) of crore, marking a steady increase from crore in FY24. Revenue for FY25 surged to crore, up significantly from crore the previous year.
Since launching its lending operations in 2007, Tata Capital has expanded its reach dramatically, serving over 70 lakh customers with a comprehensive suite of more than 25 lending products. Its services span commercial finance, retail lending, third-party insurance and credit card distribution, wealth management, and private equity fund management.
The scale of this offering is monumental. If the IPO proceeds match expectations, it will eclipse all previous listings in the Indian financial sector, a fact highlighted in a recent editorial by mfnewsdaily.in. It will also be only the second IPO from the powerful Tata Group in recent years, following the highly successful debut of Tata Technologies in November 2023. The market is closely watching the pricing, which will be crucial for investor appetite, especially given the current environment of high capital market activity.
The Consortium of Lead Managers
Managing an issue of this magnitude requires a global and domestic financial coalition. The IPO is being orchestrated by a consortium of ten Book-Running Lead Managers (BRLMs), a testament to the issue’s complexity and prominence. This group includes:
- Axis Capital
- Kotak Mahindra Capital
- BNP Paribas
- HDFC Bank
- HSBC Securities and Capital Markets
- Citigroup Global Markets India
- ICICI Securities
- IIFL Capital
- SBI Capital Markets
- J P Morgan India
The widespread involvement of these financial institutions underscores the massive scale of the public offering and the anticipated demand from institutional and retail investors globally. This strong lineup of BRLMs, as confirmed by filings reviewed by mfnewsdaily.in, reflects the market’s expectation of a successful and oversubscribed issue, further cementing the Tata Group’s reputation for market integrity and strong corporate governance.
