Logistics and e-commerce technology platform Shiprocket Limited is set to launch its much-awaited Initial Public Offering (IPO), with the public issue opening for subscription on August 12, 2026, and closing on August 14, 2026. The company has fixed the price band at ₹92 to ₹97 per equity share, while the bidding process for anchor investors will begin a day earlier on August 11.
The IPO marks an important milestone for the company as it looks to raise capital for business expansion, technology upgrades and strategic investments. Shiprocket has emerged as one of India’s leading logistics and e-commerce enablement platforms, offering shipping, fulfilment and technology solutions to online sellers and businesses across the country.
IPO to raise over ₹1,617 crore
The total size of the public issue is up to ₹1,617.485 crore, making it one of the notable IPOs in the logistics and technology space this year. The offering consists of a fresh issue of ₹885.50 crore and an Offer for Sale (OFS) worth ₹731.985 crore by existing shareholders.
The minimum application size has been fixed at 154 equity shares, and investors can place bids in multiples of 154 shares thereafter.
According to the company, the funds raised through the fresh issue will primarily be used to strengthen its business operations and support future growth. A significant portion of the proceeds will go towards the development and enhancement of Shiprocket’s technology platforms, enabling the company to improve its digital capabilities and expand its service offerings.
Funds to support expansion and technology
Apart from technology development, Shiprocket plans to invest in marketing initiatives to strengthen its market presence and acquire more customers. The company also intends to use part of the proceeds to upgrade its technology infrastructure and operational capabilities, ensuring better efficiency across its logistics network.
Another key objective of the fundraising is the full or partial repayment or prepayment of certain existing borrowings, which is expected to strengthen the company’s financial position. Additionally, Shiprocket has proposed to utilise a portion of the funds for inorganic growth through future acquisitions, along with general corporate purposes.
Following the completion of the IPO process, the company’s equity shares are proposed to be listed on both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE), with the NSE serving as the designated stock exchange for the issue.
The IPO is being managed by a consortium of leading investment banks. Axis Capital, BofA Securities India, JM Financial and Kotak Mahindra Capital Company have been appointed as the Book Running Lead Managers for the public issue.
The listing is expected to further strengthen Shiprocket’s position in India’s rapidly growing logistics and e-commerce technology sector. With online retail continuing to expand and businesses increasingly relying on digital logistics solutions, the company is looking to leverage the IPO proceeds to accelerate innovation, improve operational efficiency and support its long-term growth strategy.
