Upcoming Initial Public Offering (IPO) Details for 2025
The much-anticipated IPO Report for 2025 offers a comprehensive overview of the initial public offering (IPO) landscape, providing insights into sectoral trends, geographical shifts, market confidence, and preparatory guidance for companies planning to go public.
Sectoral Landscape
The industrial sector takes the lead in 2025, with 38 IPOs raising around $1.7 billion, primarily driven by mobility subsectors like electric vehicles and transport technologies. The consumer discretionary sector follows closely with 27 IPOs and approximately $230 million raised.
The real estate, hospitality, and construction sectors had 16 IPOs, raising $676 million, while traditional top sectors like financial services and IT have fewer but high-value deals, such as Hexaware Technologies' $1 billion raise in technology. Notable activity is also seen in power generation and health care, with health care maintaining a regular issuance stream. Emerging sectors for IPOs include renewable energy, SaaS, manufacturing, and family-run businesses preparing for exits.
Geographical Shifts
IPO participation is no longer limited to major metros, with Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities such as Surat, Jaipur, Indore, Bhubaneswar, and Coimbatore contributing significantly to subscription volumes. This regional diversification aligns with regulatory pushes encouraging companies from diverse geographies to list.
Globally, India is a major driver of IPO activity in Asia, alongside South Korea and Greater China, especially in the industrial sector.
Market Outlook
The market showed resilience, raising $4.6 billion from 108 IPO deals in H1 2025, though total deal volume declined 30% compared to the previous period. Sectoral dominance is shifting away from traditional financial services and IT towards industrials and consumer discretionary. Retail investor participation is reaching new highs, reflecting growing investor confidence and democratization of equity ownership.
The IPO pipeline remains robust with many upcoming issues in engineering, power generation, health care, and new sectors such as SaaS and renewable energy.
Preparation for Pre-IPO Companies
To attract investors, a clear growth trajectory is essential. Companies should focus on meeting regulatory requirements, building a credible business model, and establishing a robust governance structure. Preparation often includes capital expenditure and working capital planning, as these are common purposes for IPO proceeds.
Awareness and readiness to engage an increasingly informed and geographically diverse investor base help improve IPO success chances.
