MUMBAI (Reuters) - Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) has filed for an initial public offering of shares that will see the government selling a tenth of the military aircraft maker.

The government, which fully owns HAL, is seeking to sell about 36.2 million shares in the IPO, according to a company filing with the capital markets regulator.

HAL had revenue of 179.52 billion rupees ($2.74 billion) and a net profit of 26.25 billion rupees for the year ended last March, the filing showed.
