Sanigad Hydro Opens IPO to the Public as Nepal’s Hydropower Offerings Keep Flowing

Sanigad Hydro Limited has officially opened its initial public offering for the general public, giving retail investors a fresh chance to buy into Nepal’s hydropower sector. The company is offering 4,674,000 ordinary shares at a face value of NPR 100 per share, with applications available through the C-ASBA system.

The issue is being managed by Laxmi Sunrise Capital and is open for a limited subscription window from June 1, 2026 to June 4, 2026. Investors can apply for a minimum of 10 units and a maximum of 20,000 units, making the offering accessible to both small and larger applicants.

What investors need to know

Sanigad Hydro’s public issue is valued at NPR 467.4 million based on the 4,674,000 shares on offer. The company’s IPO comes as hydropower continues to remain one of the most closely watched sectors in Nepal’s primary market, where new listings often attract strong retail interest.

According to the available market reports, the issue was launched for the general public after earlier phases of the offering process, and the current window marks the final opportunity for ordinary investors to participate in the sale.

How to apply

Applications can be submitted through the C-ASBA system, which is the standard digital route for IPO participation in Nepal. Applicants need to make sure their bank or capital account is enabled for C-ASBA before submitting their request.

The minimum application size of 10 units keeps the entry barrier low, while the 20,000-unit cap gives more flexibility to investors who want a larger allocation attempt.

Why this IPO matters

Hydropower IPOs often draw attention because they combine infrastructure growth with long-term energy demand themes. For many retail investors, these offerings are seen as a way to get early exposure to companies tied to Nepal’s expanding power-generation landscape.

Sanigad Hydro’s latest public issue also adds to the steady pipeline of primary market activity, giving investors another opportunity to participate in a sector that has historically generated significant interest during subscription periods.
