Prism, the parent company of Oyo, has been given the green light by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) to move on with its planned INR 6,650 crore IPO. According to media reports, the travel technology company is estimated to be worth between $7 billion and $8 billion after the proposed share sale.
Late in December 2025, Prism used the confidential filing option to submit its draft IPO documents to Sebi. Shareholders gave their approval to the financing strategy during an EGM on December 20, 2025, which led to the development of the IPO listing. Several news outlets have reported that the shareholders gave the corporation the green light to issue new equity shares to the tune of INR 6,650 crore during the meeting.
IPO Listing will Provide a Breather to PRISM
With the green light from regulators, OYO, headed by founder Ritesh Agarwal, can finally embark on its highly anticipated voyage to the public market. Once again resuming its listing process through the confidential filing route, the company has halted IPO aspirations many times due to uncertain market conditions. It would rank among India's biggest listings for modern technology if it went public.
It follows the deferral of listing plans by other large internet companies, including Flipkart and PhonePe, due to market instability. Investor demand for real estate and infrastructure investment trusts remains high, despite the fact that some IPOs have been cancelled or delayed due to instability in the stock market. Notwithstanding this, firms like Manipal Health and SBI Funds Management are proceeding with plans to IPO. Zepto and Reliance Jio are among those who are assessing timelines as well.

Recent Development at PRISM
Growing its business in strategic areas, including India, the United States, and Europe, has become PRISM's top priority. Its focus on independently run hotels and high-end brands like Sunday Hotels and Palette Hotels has grown in the last year. Vacation rentals are another area of business expansion; the company's European brand, DanCenter, has lately debuted in India with villas in the Goa region.
To capitalise on the growing demand for spiritual tourism, it has increased its presence in domestic religious places. Former Sebi chairman Ajay Tyagi is now an independent director at PRISM. With an expected Ebitda of about $280 million (INR 2,496 crore) in FY26, Moody's anticipates PRISM's Ebitda to more than double, reiterating the company's B2 corporate family rating with a stable outlook. Reasons for this increase include cutting costs, increasing the number of luxury hotel options, and the G6 Hospitality acquisition.
