LG Electronics IPO: South Korea’s leading company LG Electronics is once again planning to launch an initial public offering (IPO) for its Indian unit.
According to a Bloomberg report, the company may submit a new draft prospectus around September with updated financial details. The IPO is expected to be launched in the fourth quarter of this year.
IPO Was Paused Earlier in April
In April 2025, LG Electronics had stopped the IPO process due to the unstable condition of the stock market.
At that time, the company said it would take a final decision based on market trends.
Now, sources say internal discussions are ongoing, and the IPO might be delayed further. The company has not given any official comment yet.
IPO Size Could Be Around ₹14,000 Crore
The report also mentions that the IPO size may be around $1.7 billion, which is nearly ₹14,000 crore. If launched, it could be one of the biggest IPOs ever in India.
However, some investors have raised concerns about the company’s valuation.
New Investment in Andhra Pradesh
Just last month, LG Electronics India announced an investment of $600 million (around ₹5,000 crore) over the next four years.
This investment will go into building the company’s third manufacturing plant in India, located in Andhra Pradesh.
Stock Market Conditions Improving
Although India’s stock market was slow in the first quarter of 2025, it has improved in recent months. The Nifty 50 index has risen about 12% since its March low.
With this growth, block deals and follow-on public offers have increased.
Experts believe that the IPO market will gain strength in the second half of the year, with several billion-dollar IPOs expected.
