Global law firm Hogan Lovells advised the underwriters, Axis Capital, Goldman Sachs, Jefferies and JM Financial, on the US$180 million equity offering by TBO Tek, one of the leading travel distribution platform in the global travel and tourism industry.
Despite launching the IPO during an election period in India, the travel tech company’s offer garnered significant attention, with an overall subscription rate exceeding 86 times, and the shares listed at a 50% premium.
The Hogan Lovells team was led by India Practice Co-Head and Singapore Office Managing Partner Biswajit Chatterjee with support from counsel Kaustubh George, senior associates Varun Jetly and Utkarsh Mishra, and associates Aditya Rajput and Suchisubhra Sarkar.
Hogan Lovells has been ranked No.1 by deal volume and deal value for 2023 India Equity and Rights Offering (Managers) by Bloomberg in 2024, and has also been ranked as a key player among foreign law firms involved in India work by India Business Law Journal 2023.
