MakeMyTrip Ltd. has increased the size of its primary equity offering to 16 million ordinary shares, pricing them at $90 per share, according to its latest filing. The move is part of a broader capital-raising plan that includes a $1.25 billion convertible bond issuance, bringing the total fundraising to over $2.6 billion. Proceeds will be used to repurchase a portion of Class B shares held by China’s Trip.com Group, reducing its stake from 45.34% to below 20%.

The company posted record FY25 revenue of $978 million, up 25% YoY, and net profit of $95.2 million, driven by a post-Covid travel boom.
