Shadowfax sets price band at Rs 118-124, IPO to open on Jan 20 Flipkart-backed logistics and delivery platform Shadowfax Technologies has officially set the price band for its initial public offering at Rs 118–Rs 124 per share. The Bengaluru-based company is gearing up to open its Rs 1,907 crore initial public offering on January 20, 2026, with the subscription window scheduled to close on January 22. Anchor investors are expected to be allotted shares a day before the issue opens. Shadowfax’s IPO comprises a fresh issue of around Rs 1,000 crore and an offer-for-sale (OFS) component of approximately Rs 907 crore, where marquee backers, including Flipkart India, Eight Roads Investments, International Finance Corporation, Nokia Growth Partners, NewQuest Asia Fund, and Miare Asset will offload portions of their stakes. The lot size has been set at 120 shares, meaning retail investors will need approximately Rs 14,880 at the upper end of the band to apply for one lot. Shadowfax is targeting a post-money valuation near Rs 7,400 crore, lower than earlier internal drafts. Founded in 2015 by Abhishek Bansal, Vaibhav Khandelwal, Praharsh Chandra, and Gaurav Jaithliya, the Bengaluru-based firm provides last-mile delivery across e-commerce and hyperlocal sectors, serving over 14,000 pin codes through 1.25 lakh delivery partners. 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. Shadowfax reported 32% year-on-year growth in revenue to Rs 2,485 crore in FY25, along with a net profit of Rs 6.4 crore. For the first half of FY26, the company booked Rs 1,806 crore in revenue and Rs 21 crore in profit.
