SHARES OF TATA group companies post gains on Tuesday after reports suggested that the salt-to-software conglomerate has begun the groundwork to list its financial services arm, Tata Capital, through an initial public offering (IPO) of $2 billion or around ₹17,000 crore.
The IPO is expected to happen before September 2025—the deadline for meeting the upper-layer NBFC guidelines of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).
The rally in some of these stocks took place on hopes of value unlocking. Tata Investment Corp shares rose 4.2% to close at ₹6,799, off the day's high of ₹7,411. Tata Motors scrip gained 1.9% to ₹736 while shares of Tata Chemicals added 3.2% to close at ₹1,068. All these companies hold stake in Tata Capital.
This would mark Tata Group's second listing in two decades, after Tata Technology's IPO in November 2023.
According to the people directly aware of the development, the Tata Group has authorised Kotak Investment Banking to initiate the process. The company will appoint more bankers by January.
