The high-profile listing will enable the government to reduce its equity in the company to 20% from 45%. Majority owner Suzuki Motor holds a 54% stake in Maruti, the report added.
Analysts told the news agency the 72.2 million-shares, at a floor price of 115 rupees a share, will be oversubscribed at least twice.
The analysts also say a major drawcard of the IPO will be Suzuki’s commitment to accelerate technology transfers to the car maker after the government reduces its shareholding in Maruti, the reports said.
