TVS Supply Chain's 8.8 billion rupee-IPO comprised of a fresh issue of shares worth 6 billion rupees and an offer for sale of shares worth 2.8 billion rupees from existing stakeholders, according to its prospectus.

The company provides last-mile delivery, warehouse, logistics and freight management services to sectors like automotive, defense, e-commerce, healthcare and utilities.

The listing comes on the heels of a retreat in Indian stock benchmarks from record highs due to moderating foreign investor inflows, worries over U.S. Federal Reserve's interest rate hikes and China's flagging recovery.
