India — Bengaluru, the operator of 'The Leela' luxury hotel brand, has launched its Initial Public Offering (IPO) to raise ₹3,500 crore. The IPO, which opened on May 26 and closes on May 28, consists of a fresh issue of ₹2,500 crore and an offer-for-sale of ₹1,000 crore by its promoter, Project Ballet Bangalore Holdings (DIFC) Private Limited. The company has set the IPO price band at ₹413 to ₹435 per share and has already raised ₹1,575 crore from anchor investors including Kotak Mahindra Bank, ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, and Fidelity Investments. India — Bengaluru plans to use the proceeds primarily for debt repayment and general corporate purposes, aiming to become debt-free. The shares are scheduled to be listed on BSE and National Stock Exchange of India on June 2, 2025. Analysts have offered mixed reviews, with some recommending 'Subscribe' due to growth prospects and debt reduction, while others advise 'Subscribe with Caution' or express skepticism due to high valuations compared to peers like Indian Hotels Company Limited and EIH Limited.
