The public offering will include a fresh issue of shares worth Rs 1,000 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of Rs 1,000 crore. Logistics startup Shadowfax is set to raise Rs 2,000 crore ($235 million) through its upcoming initial public offering (IPO), according to its filing with the Registrar of Companies (RoC). The IPO will comprise a fresh issue of equity shares worth Rs 1,000 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of shares worth Rs 1,000 crore. ICICI Securities, JM Financial, and Morgan Stanley are acting as advisors to the public issue. This development comes after the company recently filed its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) with SEBI via the confidential route. The Flipkart-backed company has also strengthened its board with the appointment of co-founders Gaurav Jaithlia as whole-time directors. Additionally, in line with regulatory requirements, the company has also appointed Bijou Kurien, Ruchira Shukla, Pirojshaw Sarkari, and Dinkar Gupta as independent directors. Shadowfax is reportedly aiming for a post-issue valuation of Rs 8,500 crore. The company is currently valued at around Rs 5,981 crore (approximately $712 million) following a $16.8 million investment from Mirae Asset and Nokia Growth Partners in the first tranche of its Series F round in February this year. Founded in 2015 by Abhishek Bansal, Vaibhav Khandelwal, Praharsh Chandra, and Gaurav Jaithliya, Bengaluru-based Shadowfax offers last-mile delivery services with a focus on e-commerce and hyperlocal logistics. The company claims to have a network of over 1.25 lakh monthly active delivery partners catering to segments such as grocery, food, and medicine delivery. According to data from TheKredible, Shadowfax has raised approximately $246 million to date. Eight Roads Ventures is the largest external stakeholder, followed by Flipkart, NewQuest Asia, and Nokia Growth Partners. While its FY25 numbers are yet to be filed, the company posted a revenue of Rs 1,885 crore in FY24, marking a 33.2% year-on-year growth. It also managed to narrow its losses by 91% to Rs 11.8 crore in FY24 from Rs 142 crore in FY23. Disclaimer: Bareback Media has recently raised funding from a group of investors.
