Insider’s Guide to Indian IPO Investments

Subject: Static GK (General Knowledge)

Book: Indian Money Knowledge

Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) let companies raise capital by selling shares to the public for the first time. Retail investors are allotted a quota, and oversubscription can trigger a lottery-based allotment. Evaluating the company’s fundamentals, prospectus, and industry trends is crucial—many IPOs are hyped but may underperform post-listing. Students experimenting with IPO applications should diversify and invest amounts they can afford to lock in, balancing curiosity with caution in a volatile market.
