The IPO, which closes on October 17, is entirely an offer-for-sale of 14.2 crore equity shares by South Korean parent Hyunday Motor Company which is asking for Rs 1.59 lakh crore in market cap for its Indian subsidiary. It has reserved 7,78,400 equity shares for its employees who will receive these shares at a discount of Rs 186 per share to the final IPO price.

Hyundai Motor India IPO shares traded at around 5-7 percent premium over the upper price band, reducing significantly from 15-20 percent premium asking before the price band announcement, the market observers said. According to experts, the issue appears to be fully priced in and there is a concern of high inventory in the automobile industry.
