The financial and investment company looks to raise up to $2 billion via IPO route. The report also suggests that the IPO would be a combination of fresh equities and share sale by promoters and existing shareholders through offer for sale.

Tata Capital’s IPO is being seen as a move to comply with Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) norms for 'upper layer' NBFCs. Tata Capital was notified as an upper-layer NBFC in September 2022, which makes it mandatory to list itself on the exchanges within three years of notification. The deadline for the same is September 2025. 

In October last year, the central bank approved the merger of Tata Capital with Tata Motors Finance (TMFL), paving the way for the formation of India’s 12th largest NBFC. As of March 31, 2024, Tata Capital had sizeable AUM of ₹158,479 crore as compared to ₹119,950 crore as on March 31, 2023, and ₹94,349 crore as on March 31, 2022.
