For anyone planning to invest in a new public issue, understanding the IPO apply time is more important than it first appears. An IPO is only open for a few days, and once that window closes, there’s no second chance. Many investors miss out simply because they are unsure about the IPO application timing.

In India, the IPO bidding time usually starts during regular IPO market hours and stays open for three working days. While the process looks straightforward on paper, delays often happen on the final day. Servers slow down, payment approvals take longer, and last minute errors become common. That’s why experienced investors rarely wait until the last day of IPO apply time, especially when demand is high.

People often ask about the best time to apply for an IPO. In reality, allotment does not depend on when you apply, but early submission gives peace of mind. Applying earlier also helps you avoid technical issues and gives you enough time to correct mistakes if something goes wrong. In popular issues, knowing the right IPO apply time becomes even more useful.

The actual process is simple. During the correct IPO application timing, you place your bid through your broker or bank app, select the price band, and approve the mandate. This entire step happens within defined IPO market hours, and missing those hours can mean your application stays incomplete.
