The initial public offering of Adani Wilmar, the company of Asia’s richest tycoon Gautam Adani’s Adani Group, was the most successful IPO of the year. Since its first public offering in February of this year, the stock has nearly tripled its investors’ capital. Meanwhile, many other new stocks are trading at or below their initial public offering price.
Best performance among 121 first public offerings
This year, Adani Wilmar’s IPO outperformed the shares of the 121 businesses listed in the Asian market. Because of the rise in interest rates and the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war, shares of roughly two-thirds of Asian corporations are in the red this year.
These investment firms put money into the Adani Wilmar IPO.

Singapore’s Monetary Authority and Nippon Life India both invested in Adani Wilmar’s first public offering.
