Shares in PT Erajaya Swasembada, Indonesia's top phone operator, fell as much as 10.8 percent on Friday after its biggest shareholder, PT Eralink International, sold stock worth about $49 million at a discount.
Eralink sold 241 million shares at 1,950 rupiah each, a 10.3 percent discount from Thursday's price, putting the deal at 469.95 billion rupiah, according to a term sheet of the offering seen by Reuters on Friday.
J.P. Morgan is the sole bookrunner for the offering.
Erajaya, which was established in 1996, launched a $100 million IPO in December 2011. The stock has jumped 96 percent since then as demand for mobile phones from Indonesia's middle class is increasing in a country where handset penetration is relatively low at 58 percent.
The stock was down 9.9 percent at 1,960 rupiah. The Jakarta Composite Index was down 0.17 percent. 1306 (0606 GMT)
