Indian hygiene manufacturer is planning an IPO
August 26, 2026
By: Karen McIntyre
India’s Swara Baby Products is investing $58 million in a new manufacturing facility in Madhya, Padesh, India to expand production capacity across its baby diaper, adult incontinence and sanitary napkins business. About one-third of the investment is expected to be funded through the net proceeds of its initial public offering.
The new facility will add annual capacity of nearly 1,500 million baby diapers, 250 million adult diapers and 190 million sanitary napkins. It will make both pant-style and tape style diapers across sizes ranging from newborn and small to XL and XXL.
Since 2018, Swara Baby has expanded its manufacturing footprint from one line to 20, including 12 baby diaper lines, four adult incontinence lines and four sanitary napkin and panty liner lines. The company currently operates four manufacturing sites across Pithampur and Indore and is pursuing growth across international markets, particularly the Middle East and North Africa and the Asia-Pacific.

According to the DRHP, the company plans to use Rs 198.2 crore from the fresh issue to set up a new manufacturing facility in Madhya Pradesh.

The remaining proceeds will be used for inorganic growth through acquisitions and general corporate purposes.
JM Financial and Avendus Capital are the book-running lead managers to the issue, while MUFG Intime India Private Limited is the registrar to the issue.
