Reliance Jio IPO: Jio Platforms of Mukesh Ambani-led company Reliance Industries is gradually getting closer to its stock market debut. The company is currently waiting for the final notification from the government on the changed rules regarding IPO.
Till this is received, the company is avoiding filing its Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) officially. Once approved, it could become the country’s biggest public issue in the times to come. The size of the IPO is estimated to be between $4–4.5 billion (approximately Rs 33,000–37,000 crore).
wait a little more time
During RIL’s December quarter results, RIL SVP (Strategy and Planning) Anshuman Thakur said that the company is internally preparing for the IPO, but is waiting for the final notification from the government. He further said that the company is currently working on the assumption that the rules will be as per the recommendations of SEBI.
Anshuman Thakur said, “We are working on the assumption that it will be as per SEBI recommendations, but we will have to wait for it before finalizing it and then starting the process.” He further said that “It will be launched in the next few months as soon as the notification is received from the government.
What is the new rule of SEBI?
In September 2025, market regulator SEBI had recommended reducing the minimum dilution in IPO to 2.5 percent for companies with market capitalization of Rs 50,000 crore to Rs 1 lakh crore. That means, companies whose market capitalization will be Rs 50,000 crore to Rs 1 lakh crore (after listing), they will get 5 years to comply with the Minimum Public Shareholding (MPS) rule of 25 percent. Whereas currently the time given for this is 3 years. Companies whose market capitalization will be more than Rs 1 lakh crore after listing will get 10 years time to follow the rule of minimum public shareholding.
Minimum public shareholding means that at least 25 percent of the shares of any listed company should be held by common investors. This will reduce the dominance of promoters and increase the availability of shares in the market.
