The year 2026 is shaping up to be one of the most active periods for global equity markets, with several high-profile companies preparing for listings that could rank among the largest in history. <\/p>\n

From US artificial intelligence leaders accelerating their path to public markets to India\u2019s most anticipated domestic offerings, investor appetite is building ahead of what could be a landmark year for initial public offerings.<\/p>\n

Equirus Capital projects that India alone could see IPO fundraising reach $20 billion in 2026, supported by strong market fundamentals and a stable macroeconomic outlook. <\/p>\n

Globally, the AI boom is also driving companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic toward potential listings as capital requirements escalate.<\/p>\n

Below is a look at the major IPOs expected in 2026.<\/p>\n

OpenAI <\/h2>\n

OpenAI is laying early groundwork for an IPO that could value the company at up to $1 trillion<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The ChatGPT maker is considering filing with regulators as early as the second half of 2026, with CFO Sarah Friar indicating to associates that the company is targeting a 2027 listing, though advisers say it could come sooner.<\/p>\n

The potential offering follows a significant restructuring completed this week, creating a new corporate structure under the OpenAI Foundation, which now holds a 26% stake. <\/p>\n

OpenAI\u2019s rapid revenue growth\u2014expected to reach an annualized run rate of $20 billion by year-end\u2014is matched by mounting losses and rising capital needs, particularly as CEO Sam Altman pursues multi-trillion-dollar investments in AI infrastructure.<\/p>\n

SpaceX<\/h2>\n

SpaceX is exploring an IPO as soon as late 2026, driven by the accelerating performance of its Starlink satellite-internet business and progress on its Starship rocket program. <\/p>\n

The company is expected to generate $15 billion in revenue in 2025, rising to $22\u201324 billion in 2026, with Starlink accounting for the majority of sales.<\/p>\n

A recent secondary offering set SpaceX\u2019s valuation above $800 billion, with employees allowed to sell around $2 billion in stock. <\/p>\n

Analysts say the valuation reset also positions the company for a smoother path to a public market debut.<\/p>\n

If SpaceX were to sell 5% of its equity at current values, the IPO could exceed $40 billion, making it the largest in history.<\/p>\n

Anthropic<\/h2>\n

Anthropic, the developer behind the Claude AI model, has hired law firm Wilson Sonsini<\/a> in early December to prepare for one of the biggest IPOs ever, with a possible listing in 2026. <\/p>\n

The company is also in talks for a private funding round valuing it between $300 billion and $350 billion.<\/p>\n

According to reports, the round includes a combined commitment of $15 billion from Microsoft and Nvidia, underscoring the intense capital requirements driving the generative AI sector.<\/p>\n

While discussions with investment banks remain preliminary, its investors view a public offering as a strategic opportunity for Anthropic to move ahead of its larger rival OpenAI. <\/p>\n

Reliance Jio<\/h2>\n

Reliance Jio\u2019s IPO is expected in the first half of 2026, according to Chairman Mukesh Ambani. <\/p>\n

Speaking at Reliance Industries\u2019 48th AGM on August 29, 2025, Ambani said Reliance Jio is preparing to file for its IPO and is targeting a market listing in the first half of 2026, pending approvals. <\/p>\n

Ambani told shareholders that the offering will showcase Jio\u2019s ability to create value on par with global peers and present an attractive opportunity for investors.<\/p>\n

With a proposed valuation of up to $170 billion, it would be one of the biggest offerings in India\u2019s history. <\/p>\n

Jio\u2019s strong financial performance\u2014ARPU at Rs 209 and a subscriber base exceeding 506 million\u2014supports growing investor interest. <\/p>\n

The company last listed a major business unit in 2006.<\/p>\n

NSE<\/h2>\n

The National Stock Exchange (NSE) is also expected to complete its long-delayed IPO in FY26, pending a crucial no-objection certificate from Sebi. <\/p>\n

Investors have been eagerly awaiting the IPO of India\u2019s National Stock Exchange, the world\u2019s largest multi-asset exchange and the second-biggest equity market globally. <\/p>\n

NSE is also the top derivatives exchange and ranked sixth worldwide in market value among unlisted exchanges at the end of 2024, according to the WFE. <\/p>\n

According to Motilal Oswal, applications for the IPO could open around March 2026, with a potential market debut by Q4 FY26, provided regulatory issues are resolved.<\/p>\n

The exchange has seen soaring investor interest, with its public shareholder count rising to 157,000 by mid-2025.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
