Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

Indian Gas Exchange has received SEBI approval to launch an IPO comprising an offer for sale of up to 1.67 crore equity shares by promoter Indian Energy Exchange. IGX will receive no proceeds, with the entire amount going to IEX. SEBI issued its final observation on 12 October, subject to regulatory requirements. The listing is intended to improve IGX’s visibility, brand presence and access to a public market. IEX holds more than 47% of IGX and plans to reduce its stake to 25% under applicable regulations. IGX reported revenue of Rs 61 crore for the year ended March 2026. CNBC-TV18 places its earlier Rs 48.8 crore revenue in FY2025-26, while The Economic Times identifies it as FY25. Rajesh Kumar Mediratta had said in January that IGX was targeting an IPO by December 2026.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Coverage from CNBC-TV18 and The Economic Times is broadly uniform straight reporting, with both leading on SEBI approval and the all-OFS structure. CNBC-TV18 adds more detail on the proposed stake reduction and IPO-market activity, while The Economic Times gives greater space to the listing rationale and operating background. Neither source presents criticism of the transaction or a competing account. The main unresolved detail is the fiscal label attached to Rs 48.8 crore revenue, which the outlets describe differently. The next stated milestone is IGX’s target of an IPO by December 2026.
