LG Electronics IPO

LG Electronics India's Rs 11,607 crore IPO can give good news to investors on Wednesday. Experts say that interest in this stock may increase due to low valuation and strong business prospects. This is also the reason why the company's IPO was the most subscribed in 2025. On the other hand, there is a good rise in the shares of LG Electronics in the gray market also. It is being estimated that the company's shares may be listed at a premium of 30 to 35 percent. If experts are to be believed, LG may be seen getting a stronger listing in comparison to Tata Capital. Let us also tell you what experts say about this.

What are the listing estimates?

Prathamesh Masdekar, research analyst at Stoxbox, said in an ET report that the valuation of this issue was lower than its competitors and the company is debt free, and its return ratio is also strong. There are indications of an increase of 30-35 per cent in the listing. LG's gray market premium (GMP) on Monday was Rs 360, which is 31.6 percent more than the IPO price of Rs 1,140. However, the premium has reduced from Rs 395 on Friday. Sneha Poddar, Vice President, Equity Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services, said in a media report that today, there has been a slight decline in GMP of LG Electronics in view of weak sentiment and profit booking in the broader market. He further said that however, the IPO is priced appropriately and there is adequate investment available for investors, which is generating strong interest from investors and is indicating a strong listing.

Highest subscription since 2008

LG Electronics' IPO received 54.02 times subscription. The issue received the second highest bids ever, after Reliance Power's mega offering in 2008. It is included in those IPOs which have raised more than Rs 10,000 crore. Narendra Solanki, Head of Fundamental Research (Investment Services), Anand Rathi Shares & Stock Brokers, said in an ET report that if the listings are exceptionally high then there could be profit booking, but if the listings are at around 15-20 per cent, then the discount in valuations could justify these profits.

Who made the highest bids?

LG's IPO attracted the most interest from institutional investors and this category attracted 166.5 times more bids than the allotted shares. The retail investor category was subscribed 3.55 times, while the non-institutional or high net worth investor category was subscribed 22.45 times. LG Electronics is poised for a listing pop of around 30-35 per cent with the combination of MNC parentage, reputed brand, strong return ratio profile and diverse range of consumer electronics products across key categories like televisions, air conditioners, refrigerators and washing machines, Jaymeen Trivedi, Research Analyst, ICICI Direct, said in a Meechiya report.
