IPO - Initial Public Offerings 2025

An Initial Public Offering (IPO) is a significant milestone for a privately held company, marking its first sale of shares to the public to raise equity capital. This process transforms a private entity into a publicly traded company. IPOs offer investors the chance to earn potential returns from the company’s future growth but also carry risks. The pipeline for IPOs in India seems robust, with many big companies scheduled to launch their public offers in the coming months. Companies launch IPOs for various purposes like funding growth, capital expenditure, technology upgrades and building brand visibility from trading on the stock exchanges.
