About Mainboard & SME IPOs
What is an IPO
An Initial Public Offering (IPO) is the process by which a private company makes its shares available to the public for the first time, allowing investors to acquire ownership of the firm. Companies frequently use the move from private to public to obtain funds for expansion, debt repayment, and other economic operations. Investing in an IPO can give prospects for early involvement in a company's growth, but it is not without risk.
How Does an IPO Work
- A private company may decide to go public when it seeks to raise capital from public investors and meets the applicable regulatory requirements.
- In India, the process of IPO is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Board (SEBI), so the first step is to register with SEBI.
- After submitting all the required documents and on receiving approval from SEBI, the company is required to determine the share price and the number of shares it plans to issue.
- Following this, the company must choose between the two types of IPO issues- Fixed price IPO and Book Building IPO.
- After IPO valuation, the company’s shares are made public.
Procedure for Investing in IPO
- Acquire the application form, either physically from a broker, a distributor, or from an online portal like 5paisa
- Fill the form with all the required details including personal, bank, and Demat account details.
- Provide details about the total investment amount.
- Shares are allotted and credited to the investor’s Demat account within 2 working days of the issue closing, and list on the exchange on T+3 (three working days after close), as per SEBI’s current timeline.

Before applying for an IPO, it’s important to read the Red Herring Prospectus (RHP) carefully. It provides key details about the company’s business model, financials, risks, and how the IPO proceeds will be used. Also, assess the company's fundamentals, industry outlook, and valuation to make an informed decision.
Investors can use an IPO registrar to check the status of their subscription. The investor will need his PAN card number, IPO application number, and Demat account number in order to verify the status of his IPO subscription. The investor will get the information under the search button on the registrar's or BSE's website if the shares are allocated.
Investors receive information from BSE, NSE, CDSL, and NSDL via shared Email and SMS.
When reading the prospectus of an IPO, begin by paying close attention to some parts of the document such as the "Business Overview" section that can help you know more about how the company operates and its future market opportunities, the "Financial Statements" that will reveal its ability to make earnings, the "Risk Factors" to show you the possible problems that might occur, and the "Use of Proceeds" that shows how the funds will be used. Lastly, see the "Management Discussion and Analysis" for information about future plans and development opportunities.
