Business Standard|October 15, 2024
Hyundai Motor India Ltd (HMIL) raised ₹8,315 crore from anchor investors on Monday, setting the stage for the country's biggest-ever maiden share sale. The Indian arm of the South Korean carmaker Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) allotted 42.4 million shares to 225 funds at ₹1,960 apiece, the higher end of its price band.

Hyundai raises ₹8,315 cr from anchor investors

Among the investors receiving allotments were the Singapore government's sovereign wealth fund (GIC), New World Fund, and Fidelity. The allotment included 21 domestic mutual funds (MFs), such as ICICI Prudential MF, SBI MF, and HDFC MF, which applied through 83 schemes.

While HMIL's initial public offering (IPO) is the country's largest ever, its anchor issue size is lower than that of digital payments firm One97 Communications (Paytm), which launched a ₹18,300 crore IPO in 2021. Since Paytm was a loss-making company, it had to reserve a higher portion of shares for qualified institutional buyers, allowing for a larger anchor allotment.

Anchor allotments are made to marquee investors a day before the IPO to instil confidence and provide cues to other investors.
