Zetwerk Files Updated DRHP for Rs 2,600 Crore IPO
Zetwerk is a company that helps other businesses make their products by connecting many smaller factories together.
It calls this big network its 'universal factory.'
Zetwerk wants to become a public company, which means people can buy little pieces of it called shares.
To do that, it needs permission from a market watchdog called SEBI.
SEBI already said yes.
Now Zetwerk will sell new shares to raise about 2,600 crore rupees, which is a very big amount of money.
Some of that money will be used to pay back loans the company owes.
The rest will be saved for buying other companies and for everyday business needs.
Early owners of Zetwerk will also get a chance to sell some of their shares to the public.
Zetwerk filed an updated draft red herring prospectus (UDRHP) with market regulator SEBI for its initial public offering.
The company plans to raise about Rs 2,600 crore through a fresh issue of shares.
The IPO includes an offer for sale of up to 96,837,455 equity shares by existing shareholders.
SEBI approved Zetwerk's IPO filing on July 09, after an initial confidential filing in April 2026.
Proceeds will repay Rs 1,250 crore of company-level debt and Rs 550 crore of subsidiary borrowings, with the rest for acquisitions and general corporate purposes.
