We recommend reading these Part 1 and Part 2 chapters of IPO Markets on Varsity to learn and understand the concepts in-depth.


Key takeaways from this chapter

  1. Companies go public to raise funds, provide an exit for early investors, reward employees and gain visibility.
  2. Merchant banker acts as a critical partner with the company during the IPO process.
  3. SEBI regulates theΒ  IPO market and has theΒ  final word on whether a company can go public or not
  4. As an investor in the IPO, you should read through the DRHP to know everything about the company.
  5. Most of the IPOs in India follow a book-building process.

    Hi, Thanks for the educational learning, the content is well understood by layman like us.
    One thing I want to provide feedback is that, the part 2 link is not found for reading. Can you please fix this? Thanks.

  10. Raj says:

    The content is presented at a totally different level. Many paid subscriptions also don’t offer such a vivid explanation. Congrats to the Zerodha team who built and presenting the content. This is just super awesome!!!

    If someone is selling a share at rs 10, I am buying it for Rs. 10… he is selling and I am buying…how will it profit the company for which the stock is being bought.

    • Karthik Rangappa says:

      There is no profit for the company as such. That said, with the increase in stock price, the company’s shareholders’ overall value of investment increases.

  12. Anurag Bhakat says:

    Before Going to the IPO , The involvement of Private Equity Firms should be added for a further detailed explaination stepwise.
    Other than that,A great Content and Greater Explanation.

  19. GOWTHAM says:

    Hello sir.

    I am Gowtham, I have two doubts about this chapter IPO.

    1. Are the shares issued based on the investment made by the individuals or the promoter can negotiate for the specific % of shares? In seed funding?

    2. How the %stake i.e (equity %) and the investment amount are linked or what is the connection between them? I am not clear about the calculation for company’s valuation

    I hope you will reply me soon.
