Lava Might Go For IPO After Budget

Meanwhile, mobile handset maker Lava is likely to go for the Initial Public Offer as it plans to increase government incentives to boost manufacturing. "Lava would like to launch the IPO post-budget as it expects the budget will offer more incentives for domestic manufacturing. That will help with better valuations," sources close to the development were quoted by Mint.

The report said that Lava is also planning to raise Rs. 1,400 to pay its debt and to meet all expenditures. In addition, the company wants to spend money on marketing and distribution. However, Lava has not made any official announcement regarding the IPO.
