LG's IPO coming to Dalal Street soon? Here's everything we know so far

Upcoming IPO, LG IPO: LG Electronics, the South Korean consumer electronics giant, is all set to go public in India. According to reports, the company plans to launch an initial public offering (IPO) of its Indian unit soon, aiming to raise funds by selling a 15 per cent stake. This will be the biggest IPO of 2025 so far.

The company had initially planned to launch the IPO earlier this year but held back because of uncertain market conditions and global trade tensions.

LG has already got the green light from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi), which approved the issue back in March after the company filed its draft prospectus in December 2024.

More big names like Tata Capital, Groww, Meesho, PhonePe, Boat, and Lenskart are also expected to hit the market soon, with IPOs worth Rs 70,000 crore lined up.
