LG Electronics India IPO: The long-awaited initial public offering (IPO) of LG Electronics India is scheduled to open for subscription this coming week. The South Korean electronics company’s Indian subsidiary had received approval from the market regulator, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) for its public issue in March 2025.
Notably, LG Electronics India IPO is one of the largest public issues of 2025 in terms of offer size along with the Tata Capital IPO and HDB Financial Services IPO. Ahead of the opening of the bidding window in the second week of October, here’s a look at some key details of the public issue from the red herring prospectus (RHP):
The grey market premium for LG Electronics India’s shares ranges between Rs 110 and Rs 120 on October 5, 2025, according to multiple websites which track the demand for unlisted shares. Based on the GMP for shares of the home appliance maker, the stock is expected to list with a premium of 10.52 per cent at Rs 1,260 apiece. However, investors must note that GMP is an unofficial estimate of the potential demand for a company’s shares, and the listing of a stock ultimately depends on a slew of factors, such as the overall investor sentiment and the demand for the company’s shares.
LG Electronics India is expected to be worth around Rs 11,607.01 crore, according to the company’s RHP. The public issue consists only of an offer for sale (OFS) of up to 101.80 million shares. The price band for LG Electronics IPO has been fixed at Rs 1,080-1,140 per share.
The subscription window will remain open from October 7-9, and the share allotment status will be finalised on October 10.
