Coca-Cola is reported to be seeking financial advisers for a potential initial public offering (IPO) of its India bottling business, according to two reports. NDTV says the company is looking to raise about $1 billion, with the planned listing expected to add to a broader wave of multinational companies monetizing Indian operations through public markets amid strong local investor demand.

Both accounts describe the initiative at a planning stage, with the size of the deal and targeted valuation figures reported, but without final confirmation of timing, structure, or whether the IPO will proceed as described.
