Ather is set to become the second pure-play E2W company to list on the Indian stock exchanges, following Ola Electric. The IPO is also expected to deliver significant gains to early investors and promoters.

According to the red herring prospectus (RHP), Tiger Global is set to earn a return multiple of 8.3x on its investment. Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund GIC and the National Investment and Infrastructure Fund (NIIF) are expected to clock multiples of 1.6x and 1.7x, respectively.The public issue is also set to unlock wealth worth Rs 530 crore for over 1,300 employees covered under Ather’s employee stock option plan (ESOP).

After filing its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) last year, Ather trimmed the size of its fresh issue from Rs 3,100 crore to Rs 2,626 crore, amid unfavourable market conditions. The offer-for-sale (OFS) component has also been reduced by about 50%.

Axis Capital Limited, HSBC Securities and Capital Markets (India) Private Limited, JM Financial Limited, and Nomura Financial Advisory and Securities (India) Private Limited are the bookrunning lead managers to the issue.
