About HERO Motors IPO

Hero Motors, part of the Hero Motors Company (HMC) Group, is planning to raise ₹900 crore through an initial public offering (IPO) as per its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) filed on August 23. The IPO will include a fresh equity issue of ₹500 crore and an offer-for-sale (OFS) worth ₹400 crore. OP Munjal Holdings, a promoter, intends to sell shares worth ₹250 crore, while Bhagyoday Investments and Hero Cycles will offload shares valued at ₹75 crore each through the OFS.

Hero Motors may also consider a pre-IPO placement of ₹100 crore, which would adjust the allocation for general corporate purposes from the fresh issue. OP Munjal Holdings holds a 71.55% stake in Hero Motors, while Bhagyoday Investments and Hero Cycles own 6.28% and 2.03%, respectively.

Hero Motors specialises in powertrain solutions, serving major global automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). With six manufacturing facilities in India, the UK, and Thailand, the company provides both electric and non-electric powertrains, exporting to the US, Europe, and the ASEAN region.

Industry Outlook:

  1. From 2021 to 2023, the global two-wheeler market grew at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%, reaching 15.88 million units in 2023. The rise in urbanisation and demand for fuel-efficient, affordable vehicles like scooters and motorcycles has boosted this growth.
  2. The premium motorcycle segment (>=125 cc) in India recorded a 3% CAGR between fiscal 2019 and 2024, increasing its market share from 38% to 52%.
  3. Despite a cut in subsidies, the demand for electric two-wheelers in India continued to grow in fiscal 2024, supported by new product launches.

HERO Motors Limited IPO Objectives

The company plans to allocate the net proceeds from the issuance to the following purposes:

  1. Part of the proceeds will be used to repay or pre-pay certain borrowings taken by the company.
  2. Allocate funds toward investment in new equipment for expanding its Gautam Buddha Nagar facility.
  3. Allocating funds to meet the working capital requirements of the company.
  4. The remaining funds will be allocated for general corporate purposes.
