Along with all these value-added functionalities, you also get the flexibility to access IPOs via both the Paytm Money app and the Paytm Money website.
Based on this year’s IPO data, it can be conveniently said that India represents a huge appetite for Initial Public Offers (or IPOs). In the period March-November 2020, the country’s stock exchanges (both NSE and BSE combined) witnessed 12 IPOs and raised proceeds worth Rs.249.73 billion (or Rs 24,973 crores) in total.
Some of the successful IPOs of 2020 were SBI Cards, Mazagaon Dock, Rossari Biotech, Happiest Minds, and CAMS among others. Within these, Happiest Minds and Rossari Biotech were oversubscribed by 150.98x and 79.37x and have delivered a listing day return of 111% and 77% respectively as per NSE’s data.
If we look at filings with SEBI, it is expected that some of the leading brands may come up with their IPOs this financial year.
Thus, investing in IPOs makes sense for you on several counts. Apart from getting access to quality stocks at reasonable valuations, IPOs provide you with an opportunity to associate with marquee brands right from its development stage and build wealth alongside its growth trajectory via capital appreciation and probable dividend receipts in the future.
With IPOs, most companies have expansion plans, therefore as their business skyrockets, so do your investments. Instead of buying stocks after the company showcases its success story, you get to be a part of one, at an early stage.
In the near future, we plan to include IPO funding, derivatives trading, margin finance, and a host of other value-adding features on our platform to make investing simple and convenient for all users.
