Approval of Public Offering on Pakistan Stock Exchange

The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) today approved the 14th Initial Public Offering (IPO) on the Pakistan Stock Exchange for the fiscal year 2025-26, marking a significant development in the country’s capital markets.

This public offering will provide 20 million shares, of which 18 million shares will be reserved for institutional investors and 2 million shares will be allocated for retail investors at a price of 10 rupees per share.

The capital generated will be used for the acquisition of suitable companies through a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC), which will complete mergers or acquisitions through the funds provided by investors.

SECP’s recent reforms have played a vital role in boosting IPO market activities, opening new investment opportunities, and enhancing business confidence in the capital market.

This public offering is expected to further deepen and broaden Pakistan’s financial landscape, providing a promising outlook for future investments.
