What is an IPO?

Whenever a company gets listed in the market, it issues its IPO before that. In this IPO, the company tells how many shares it is selling through the IPO. In the IPO, the company also gives information about the IPO price band along with the lot size. The company tells how much IPO it has reserved for which investors in the IPO it is bringing.

Let us tell you that IPO is reserved for four types of investors. These include institutional investors (QIP), non-institutional investors (NII), retail investors and employees of the company. Along with the information about the reserved IPO for the investors, the information about the registrar of the IPO is also given. The company first gives all this information to the market regulator SEBI in the draft paper. When the market regulator SEBI gives approval, then the IPO of the company opens.

The IPO is open for three days. A few days after the IPO closes, the company allots shares to investors. After the IPO is allotted, the company's shares are listed in the market. Please note that it is not necessary that the company's shares are listed on both the stock exchanges i.e. Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE).

Before investing, you should do research about the company. You should pay attention to the performance of the company you are investing in. Apart from this, you should also know about the company's management, team and industry.

Investing in IPO is risky. Many times IPO gets allotted but the listing of the shares is not great. In such a case, there is a possibility of loss. In such a situation, you should not invest your savings or investment amount in one place.

Before investing in IPO, you must ensure that your UPI ID is linked to your bank account. If this is not the case, then there can be a problem at the time of investment. Apart from this, you should also ensure that your account should have the amount you want to invest in IPO.

You should never apply for investing in an IPO from one Demat Account through a different broking app.

You should approve that the payment for investment in IPO has been received on your UPI application.

Never invest at the last minute. Always try to invest in IPO by the second day. In this way, the chances of getting IPO allotted can increase.

You should always invest at the cut-off price. In fact, many times the investor who bids the highest has a higher chance of getting the IPO.

Be careful about which category you are investing in. You should never select a category in a hurry.

You should try to ensure that you have shares of the parent company that is opening the IPO, then the chances of allotment increase.
