Indian Gas Exchange Limited (IGX), an associate entity of Indian Energy Exchange (IEX), has taken a major step toward entering the public market. The company announced that its board has formally approved the commencement of the Initial Public Offering (IPO) process.
Board Nod to Begin Listing Process
The approval, granted during a board meeting on December 2, 2025, authorizes IGX to begin work on its proposed share sale. The IPO will comprise an offer for sale (OFS) of equity shares with a face value of ₹10 each, to be sold by eligible existing shareholders.
The company stated that the launch will depend on multiple factors, including market sentiment, regulatory approvals, and other operational considerations. Further details—including the issue size, timeline, and structure—will be finalized and communicated as the process advances.
Industry Significance and Strategic Intent
The decision marks an important milestone for India’s regulated gas trading ecosystem, as IGX looks to scale operations and strengthen its position in the rapidly evolving natural gas market. Backed by IEX, the country’s leading power exchange platform, IGX aims to expand its reach, improve liquidity, and support India’s long-term transition toward a more market-driven energy pricing framework.
The planned listing is expected to enhance transparency, improve governance, and provide the company with greater financial flexibility for growth.
Summary
IGX has received board approval to initiate its IPO process, with the offering set to include equity shares sold by existing stakeholders. The launch will depend on regulatory and market conditions, and additional details will be released as the listing plan progresses.
