Canara Robeco Asset Management Company’s IPO, valued at $149.4 million (₹1,326 crore), was fully subscribed on the final day of bidding. Retail and non-institutional investors drove strong demand, marking a successful debut for India’s second-oldest AMC, with shares set to list on October 16.

Canara Robeco Asset Management Company Limited (AMC) successfully closed its initial public offering (IPO) on October 13, 2025, achieving full subscription on the very last day. The IPO, aimed at raising approximately ₹1,326.13 crore ($149.4 million) through an offer for sale of 4.99 crore shares, witnessed robust investor participation, driven primarily by retail and non-institutional investors. The issue’s price band was fixed between ₹253 and ₹266 per share.

This IPO represents a significant milestone for Canara Robeco AMC, India’s second-oldest asset management company, jointly owned by Canara Bank (51%) and ORIX Corporation Europe (49%). Established in 1987, the AMC manages a diversified portfolio of 26 mutual fund schemes, covering equity, debt, and hybrid funds, with assets under management averaging ₹1.11 trillion.

Key Highlights:

Strong Investor Demand: Retail individual investors fully subscribed their quota, and non-institutional investors oversubscribed theirs by 110%, signaling robust market confidence in the AMC.

IPO Structure: The IPO comprised entirely of an Offer for Sale (OFS); hence, no fresh capital will be raised for the company itself—all proceeds go to the selling shareholders.

Grey Market Performance: The grey market premium witnessed a decline from initial highs but remained positive around 3%, implying modest listing gains.

Anchor Investors’ Trust: Before the public offering, Canara Robeco AMC secured ₹397.8 crore from 25 anchor investors, including major domestic mutual funds, showcasing institutional support.

Upcoming Listing: Shares are slated to debut on BSE and NSE on October 16, 2025, with allotment finalization expected on October 14.

Growth Outlook: Analysts highlight the AMC’s strong retail clientele, stable asset base, and research-driven investment approach as key growth drivers.

Risks to Consider: Industry competition, compliance requirements imposed by SEBI, and market volatility could impact future performance.

Valuation: At the upper price band, the company is valued at around ₹5,300 crore post-IPO on a price-to-earnings ratio of approximately 28x.

Market Position: As a joint venture with public sector backing and global expertise, Canara Robeco is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing mutual fund penetration in India.

Investor Appeal: The IPO attracted both long-term investors and retail participants looking for exposure to India’s expanding mutual fund sector.

With strong subscription success and solid fundamentals, Canara Robeco AMC’s IPO sets a positive tone for its public market journey.
