Market experts say that LIC’s IPO can prove to be Saudi Aramco’s IPO for India. Saudi Aramco is one of the largest oil companies in the world. Its listing of $ 2940 million (Rs 2.19 lakh crore) is the largest listing in the world.
At present, the ownership of LIC is with the government. It is the largest life insurance company in the country. The government wants to raise around Rs 90,000 crore by selling stake in this company. This will help the government to achieve the disinvestment target of the current financial year. Even after the IPO, the ownership of LIC will continue to be owned by the government. According to the law, the government’s stake in LIC cannot be less than 51 per cent. Apart from this, the government cannot sell more than 25 percent of its stake in LIC during 5 years.
