Hindustan Coca-Cola Holdings plans to conduct an initial public offering through an offer for sale of equity shares. The proposed IPO is expected to raise around $1 billion, aiming for a valuation of $10 billion. Coca-Cola Company and Jubilant Bhartia Group hold significant stakes in the company after a recent stake sale. The IPO proceeds will benefit the promoter selling shareholder with no funds directed to Hindustan Coca-Cola Holdings.
Hindustan Coca-Cola Holdings (HCCH), the parent company of Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages (HCCB) and The Coca-Cola Company’s largest bottling partner in India, has filed its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), paving the way for its proposed initial public offering (IPO).The proposed IPO is expected to raise approximately $1 billion (around Rs 9,500 crore), according to earlier reports, with the company reportedly targeting a valuation of $10 billion.
According to the draft papers, the public issue will comprise an entirely offer for sale (OFS) of equity shares, with no fresh issue component.
Hindustan Coca-Cola Overseas Holdings Pte. Ltd., the promoter selling shareholder, proposes to offload up to 997,461,456 equity shares with a face value of Rs 10 each.
The Coca-Cola Company holds a 60% stake in HCCH, while the Jubilant Bhartia Group owns the remaining 40%, following a stake sale completed in 2025.

Since the issue is entirely an offer for sale, HCCH will not receive any proceeds from the IPO. The proceeds, after deduction of offer-related expenses, will go to the promoter selling shareholder.
"Our Company will not receive any proceeds from the Offer and all the proceeds of the Offer will be received by the Promoter Selling Shareholder after deduction of Offer related expenses, to be borne by the Promoter Selling Shareholder," the company said in its DRHP.
Kotak Mahindra Capital Company, Citigroup Global Markets India, J.P. Morgan India, Morgan Stanley India Company, Axis Capital, Goldman Sachs (India) Securities and IIFL Capital Services have been appointed as the book-running lead managers to the issue.
KFin Technologies will act as the registrar to the public issue.
