The week of 26 October 2026 has three main primary market events: the allotment and listing of the Jio Platforms IPO and the opening of two new issues, from EAAA India Alternatives and SFC Environmental Technologies. Spectate Media has not seen the offer documents and relies on the reports named below. Dates in the reports can change.

Jio Platforms

The ₹30,213 crore issue closed on 23 October at 22.19 times subscribed, according to The Daily Jagran. HDFC Sky has listed allotment on 26 October, refunds and share credit on 27 October and listing on 28 October. BusinessToday gave the unofficial grey market premium as about ₹240 to ₹250 on 23 October.

EAAA India Alternatives

BusinessToday reported a ₹1,200 crore issue at ₹1,585 to ₹1,665 a share, all of it an offer for sale by Edelweiss Securities and Investments, so the company receives nothing. The valuation at the upper band is ₹10,765 crore. The issue opens on 26 October and closes on 28 October, and listing is expected on 2 November. The minimum bid is 9 shares, or ₹14,985. The alternative asset manager had assets under management of ₹95,344.8 crore in June 2026. Net profit for the June quarter was ₹80.7 crore, up 45%, on revenue of ₹275.5 crore, up 44.4%. Headlines from the Economic Times and NDTV Profit reported ₹360 crore raised from anchor investors; Spectate Media has not seen those articles.

SFC Environmental Technologies

Business Standard reported a ₹668 crore issue at ₹313 to ₹330 a share, made up of a ₹150 crore fresh issue and an offer for sale of up to 1.57 crore shares. The valuation at the upper band is about ₹3,233 crore. Anchor bidding is on 26 October, the issue runs from 27 to 29 October, and listing is proposed for 3 November. Proceeds of the fresh issue are for debt repayment and working capital. The Mumbai-based company treats sewage and effluents. The report gives no financials.

Key numbers

  • Jio allotment: 26 October (Listing 28 October, per HDFC Sky)
  • EAAA issue: ₹1,200 crore (₹1,585-₹1,665 a share; all offer for sale)
  • EAAA window: 26-28 October (Listing expected 2 November)
  • SFC Environmental issue: ₹668 crore (₹313-₹330; open 27-29 October)

What boards and CFOs should note

Three points stand out. First, EAAA closes on the day Jio is due to list. Second, both new issues include sellers' shares, and EAAA's is entirely so. Third, refunds from Jio on 27 October return cash to applicants before the new issues close. This is not investment advice.
