Tata Investment Share Price Surge Over 8% After Tata Capital’s IPO Approval

Tata Investment share price jumped over 8% on Wednesday, reaching a high of ₹6,225 on the BSE. This surge came after reports confirmed that Tata Capital had received board approval for its much-anticipated initial public offering (IPO).

Tata Capital’s IPO Plan

Tata Capital, a major financial services company under the Tata Group, plans to issue 23 crore new shares through the IPO. Additionally, some existing shareholders are expected to sell part of their holdings via an offer-for-sale (OFS), according to a report.

Impact on Tata Investment Corporation

Tata Investment Corporation, which holds stakes in several Tata Group companies, is expected to benefit indirectly from Tata Capital’s IPO. Investors see this listing as a step toward unlocking value in Tata Group’s financial services businesses.

Tata Group’s Rare Market Debut

This IPO will be only the second public listing by the Tata Group in 20 years, following Tata Technologies’ successful IPO in November 2023.

Tata Capital’s Role in the Group

Tata Sons, the Tata Group’s main holding company, owns 93% of Tata Capital. The financial services arm provides loans, investment banking, and advisory services through subsidiaries like Tata Capital Financial Services and Tata Capital Housing Finance.

Regulatory Compliance and Listing Requirement

In September 2022, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) classified Tata Capital Financial Services as a systemically important NBFC (Non-Banking Financial Company), requiring it to follow strict regulations and go public within three years.

Stock Performance

Over the past year, Tata Investment shares have declined by 8.71%, while they have gained 0.88% in the last 6 months. In the past month, the stock has risen by 1.63%, with a sharp surge of 19.04% in the last week. This recent rally reflects strong investor optimism regarding Tata Capital’s IPO and its potential impact on Tata Group’s financial services sector.

Conclusion

Tata Capital’s IPO is set to be a major milestone for the Tata Group, potentially boosting its financial services portfolio. Investors are closely watching its market debut.
