The IPO was in the works for quite some time but the company had earlier shelved plans due to volatile market conditions. The plans now revived with the issue opening next week and the IPO will be one of the biggest this year.
Since the IPO is completely an OFS, all the funds raised will go to the selling shareholder, which is the Korean parent in this case.
