IPO (Initial Public Offering)

An IPO is an Initial Public Offering wherein a private company sells its shares to the public for the first time. In doing so, the firm shifts its status from being held privately to becoming publicly traded on stock exchanges like NSE or BSE. The funds raised from an IPO allow a company to have the liberty of expanding, settling its existing loans, or investing in new ventures.

For investors, spotting a new IPO or the current IPO can be a thrilling opportunity to jump in early with a company that might zoom ahead. Meanwhile, share prices tend to fluctuate quite a lot during the first few days of trading.

IPO Terms

ExchangeThe stock market where shares are listed and traded (e.g., NSE, BSE). Investors often track the current IPO list on these exchanges.
IPO Open Date / Issue Close DateThe timeframe when investors may apply for shares. Checking an IPO open today helps investors act within the subscription window.
Lot SizeThis is the smallest number of shares you can apply for in an IPO. For example, if the lot size is 50, you’ll need to buy at least 50 shares in one application.
Issue PriceThe price at which a company offers its shares to the public. It can either be a fixed price or a price range decided during the IPO.
Total Issue AmountThis is the total value of all the shares being offered in the IPO. It’s worked out by multiplying the issue price by the total number of shares.

Who Can Apply for an IPO?

You need to be 18 years or older and legally eligible to invest.
A PAN card is required for identity and tax purposes.
You must have a Demat account, where your IPO stocks will be credited if you’re allotted shares. If you don’t have one, you can open demat account online with a trusted broker.
Must link a bank account for ASBA-enabled payments.
A trading account is optional to sell shares after listing.

Why Do Companies Choose to Go Public?

Raise Funds for Growth
An IPO allows companies to collect money that can be used for expansion, developing new products, or entering fresh markets.
Boost Credibility and Brand Value
Being listed on a recognised stock exchange enhances visibility, builds trust, and improves the company’s image with investors and customers.
Provide Exit Opportunities
An IPO gives founders, early investors, and employees the option to sell part of their holdings and realise profits.
Debt Reduction
The funds raised can be used to repay loans, helping the company strengthen its financial position.
Support Mergers and Acquisitions
Publicly listed shares can also be used as a valuable asset in strategic deals or acquisitions.

These are some of the key reasons why new IPO launches regularly feature in the current IPO opening calendar and continue to attract attention from both companies and investors.

What Happens After You Apply for an IPO?

When you submit an IPO application, an application number is generated, and a UPI mandate request is sent within 24 hours. You need to authorise this mandate to confirm your bid. Once authorised, the application amount is blocked in your bank account through the ASBA process, and it will continue to earn interest until allotment.After the subscription period closes, the company finalises allotments. If the latest IPO subscription is oversubscribed, investors may receive partial allotments or be selected through a lottery system. You can check your allotment status online.

If you are not allotted shares, the blocked amount is released—generally within a week. If your application is successful, the shares you are allotted will be credited to your Demat account before the listing date. When trading starts on exchanges like NSE and BSE, the share price is set by demand and supply in the market. At that stage, you can choose to hold your IPO stocks for the long term or sell them, depending on your financial goals and the market conditions.
