Flooring Guide by Cinvex – , JAKARTA — The activity of initial public offerings (IPOs) in the Indonesian capital market remains notably sluggish as the first quarter of 2026 draws to a close.
According to data from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) up to March 27, 2026, not a single company has officially listed its shares on the exchange. This trend reflects a prevailing “wait and see” attitude among business players, grappling with ongoing market dynamics shrouded in uncertainty, stemming from both global and domestic factors. Despite this subdued start, hopes for a resurgence in IPO activity persist, fueled by a healthy pipeline of companies ready to make their market debut.

The IDX has identified 12 companies currently in its share listing or IPO pipeline. The majority of these are large-asset companies, positioning them as potential drivers for future capital raising in the market. I Gede Nyoman Yetna, Director of the IDX, revealed that based on asset classification, referring to OJK Regulation Number 53/POJK.04/2017, the IPO pipeline is predominantly composed of large-scale enterprises. Specifically, there are no companies with small-scale assets (below IDR 50 billion), only one medium-scale company (IDR 50 billion – IDR 250 billion), and a significant 11 companies categorized as large-scale, boasting assets above IDR 250 billion.

From a sectoral perspective, the IPO pipeline exhibits a fairly diverse mix, though not evenly distributed across all sectors. Non-cyclical consumer industries lead the pack with three companies, followed by the healthcare, infrastructure, and technology sectors, each contributing two companies. Meanwhile, the energy, financials, and transportation & logistics sectors are each represented by one company. Interestingly, several key sectors, including basic materials, cyclical consumer goods, industrials, as well as property and real estate, have yet to contribute IPO candidates to the current pipeline.
