Ola Upcoming IPO 2024: Here’s the Star Cast

An unusual twist for tech IPOs these days, the Ola public issue is set lower than their average acquisition price. While this may be a bumpy ride for some, early investors like Tiger Global and Z47 (earlier called Matrix Partners) are set to hit the jackpot!

  • The Founder’s Mega Stake

Ola founder and promoter Bhavish Aggarwal is the largest stakeholder in Ola Electric. His 36.94% stake in the company is valued at ₹10,350 crores. He plans to sell 3.79 crore of his [2] 1,361,875,240 equity shares.

  • Tiger Global and Z47 are Roaring

Investment firm, Tiger Global has a 6% stake in Ola, bought shares at ₹11.70 and is set to score about a mammoth 549% return from the IPO. The company has a stake value of ₹1,690 crores[3] . Matrix Partners India, now called Z47, bought shares at a mere ₹8.22 each. Now, it is about to score a whopping 824% return from the Ola IPO and has made ₹879 crores.[4]  With 3.43% of the company (1.26 crore shares) in their pocket, Z47 is all set to unload around 37.27 lakh shares and pocket a cool ₹28.3 crore!

  • The Akhtar Alliance

Bollywood brother-sister duo Farhan and Zoya Akhtar are prominent investors in Ola Electric. Zoya owns 1,77,841 equity shares that are valued at ₹1.35 crores. While her actor-brother Farhan Akhtar has 3,55,683 shares ₹2.70 crores. They are not going to sell their Ola Electric shares in the upcoming IPO.

The sibling duo [5] along with their co-producer Ritesh Sidhwani own a total of 8.9 lakh shares in Ola Electric. It is estimated that by the end of the IPO, these shares would have a worth of around ₹6.8 crores. Their investment in the Bhavish Aggarwal-led EV company Ola, which they started in December 2021 has so far given them a whopping 26% gain.

  • Vijay Shekhar Sharma’s Power Play

Paytm founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma, who invested in the EV company probably at the same time as the Akhtar-duo, owns 12.45 lakh shares and plans to retain them throughout the Ola Electric IPO.

  • From Shark Tank to Sharktastic Gains: Anupam Mittal’s Ola U-Turn

Entrepreneur Anupam Mittal, better known as Shark Tank-3 judge, recently mentioned that he was reluctant to invest in Ola and had twice rejected the opportunity in 2011. However, he soon changed his mind and invested in the ride-hailing company. He considers Ola to be his most profitable investment ever and withdrew with several hundred crores[6] .
