HDB Financial Services has announced its IPO, opening for subscription on June 25, 2025, and closing on June 27, 2025, with tentative listing on both exchanges on July 1-2, 2025. This non-banking financial company (NBFC) subsidiary of HDFC Bank seeks to raise an impressive ₹12,500 crore. The offering consists of a fresh issue of ₹2,500 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of ₹10,000 crore. The price band has yet to be announced, but insiders report it could be between ₹700 to ₹740 per equity share.

- Non-Institutional Investors (NIIs) will get at least 15% of the shares.
- Retail investors are also well-served with at least 35% share allocation.
Objectives of the IPO
Proceeds from the fresh issue of ₹2,500 crore will be channeled towards accelerating the company's growth, including expanding lending operations and strengthening its balance sheet.
