IPO FAQs
Your Questions, Answered
- Initial Public Offering, commonly known as IPO in stock market circles, is a process by which a private company makes its shares available for retail investors to purchase on the public market for the first time. It allows investors to buy stake in the company and participate in its future, gain access to potential dividends, and acquire voting rights.
- A Mainboard IPO is launched by larger companies that meet specific eligibility criteria set by SEBI, such as minimum market capitalization revenue thresholds. These are typically available to purchase via the recognised national stock exchanges.
- Any individual with a valid Demat account, KYC-compliant documents, and sufficient funds to purchase the minimum lot size specified during the IPO phase is eligible to apply.
To invest, investors will need:
- PAN Card
- Aadhaar or address proof
- Bank account details linked to your Demat account
- The price band is defined as the price range within which investors can bid in a book-building IPO. The final price the company lists at will depend on the available supply and estimated demand based on the bid ranges.
- Yes, you are allowed to modify or cancel your IPO application while the IPO subscription period is ongoing. Once the IPO closes, further changes are not allowed.
- After the IPO window closes, you can check your IPO allotment status via the investment platform you used to apply (such as Anand Rathi) or the registrar's website using your application number or PAN.
- Yes, any shares you are allotted as part of a successful IPO bid must be stored in dematerialized form. This makes a Demat account mandatory to invest in IPOs.
- The subscription period for online IPO investments usually lasts 3-5 days.
- After a company lists on the stock market through its IPO, the shares are traded on stock exchanges like NSE and BSE. Investors who received successful allotment can choose to hold or sell on the open market, while investors who did not get allotted can purchase shares at the current market price.
- No, IPOs involve risks, including price volatility and uncertain market conditions. A listing gain cannot be guaranteed after an IPO, and share prices can even go below the IPO price when trading begins, depending on prevailing conditions and investor sentiment.
