Tata Capital sold its shares at Rs 326 each as part of a big public offering – the largest one of the year. Strong interest from investors like the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), along with big names like Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, helped make the offering successful.

The company needed to raise Rs 6.846 billion to improve its financial strength, and Tata Sons and the International Finance Corporation (IFC) also sold shares worth Rs 8.666 billion. Experts think the stock is fairly priced compared to other companies in the same industry.

As of the end of the trading day, Tata Capital is worth about Rs 1.4 trillion. This is roughly four times the company’s value based on its assets – similar to other companies in its field. Analysts believe the stock might not increase much in the short term, but the company’s strong backing from the Tata Group and its ability to reach many customers through different channels could help it grow its loan business quickly.

After the IPO, Tata Sons now owns 84.6% of Tata Capital, down from 95.6%. This is the Tata Group’s biggest public offering in nearly 20 years, and the second time a Tata company has listed on the stock market since Tata Technologies went public in November 2023. Tata Capital is classified as a “top-tier” non-banking financial company (NBFC) by India’s central bank, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

Tata Capital has been around since 2007 and is now the third-largest NBFC in India. It has a diverse range of loans – 61.3% are to individual customers, 26.2% go to small and medium-sized businesses, and the rest to bigger companies. This mix of loans is seen as important for the company’s future.
