Investor Interest
The ongoing general elections haven’t dampened investor interest in the primary market. Robust domestic inflows, particularly from retail investors, are encouraging companies to launch IPOs. Analysts attribute this to a growing interest in equity markets.
What to Remember
Before subscribing to any IPO, it’s crucial to research the company thoroughly. This includes understanding its business model, financials, future prospects, and the risks involved. Consulting with a financial advisor is also recommended for personalized guidance.
Overall, this week promises to be action-packed for the Indian primary market. With new IPOs and listings, investors have a variety of options to consider. However, careful research and due diligence remain key before making any investment decisions.
