The Jio Platforms IPO opens for retail investors on October 21 and closes on October 23, 2026, with the anchor investor book opening on October 19. The company has set a price band of ₹1,065 to ₹1,119 per share for this massive ₹30,213 crore public issue.
The anchor book for Jio Platforms created history by receiving demand approximately 30 times higher than the available portion. Institutional investors and global asset managers placed bids amounting to ₹2.5 lakh crore against an anchor portion of ₹8,110 crore.
Helios Capital founder Sameer Arora is bullish on the IPO, noting that while it offers a fair valuation and easy initial profits, investors should not expect sudden 30% to 50% spikes. Instead, post-listing Jio is expected to provide stable, reliable compounding returns that outperform the broader index.
