IPO & SME Buzz

24
📈 Why Are IPOs Booming in 2025?
Let’s understand what’s fuelling this mega wave:

✅ 1. Strong Market Sentiment
Both Nifty and Sensex are near all-time highs

Retail, FII, and mutual fund participation is rising

This bullishness is driving interest in new listings

✅ 2. Favorable Regulatory Environment
SEBI has streamlined IPO processes

Faster listing timelines (T+3 now), better SME disclosures

Attracting more genuine companies to go public

✅ 3. Retail Investor Explosion
Retail investors have grown from 4 crore to 12 crore+ in 3 years

Most IPOs are oversubscribed in the retail segment

Apps like Zerodha, Groww, Upstox have made IPO investing super easy

✅ 4. SMEs Want Capital + Visibility
SMEs are looking to raise capital for expansion, not just survival

Going public builds brand trust, creditworthiness, and long-term valuation

Also helps in professionalizing business operations

✅ 5. High Listing Gains = FOMO
Many IPOs (especially SME) are opening with 100%–500% premiums

This creates a rush — people apply hoping for quick profits

🚀 SME IPOs: The Real Game Changer
What is an SME IPO?
SME IPOs are for smaller companies (typically with ₹10–250 crore market cap), listed on:

NSE Emerge

BSE SME

These platforms are designed for high-growth businesses in manufacturing, IT, textiles, agriculture, infra, and other emerging sectors.

Why are SME IPOs buzzing?
Low valuation entries (IPO price ₹10–₹150 range)

Limited retail quota (35%) = quick oversubscription

Thin float (less available shares) = strong price movement

High retail interest, often driven by buzz on social media and brokers

Pros of SME IPOs:
Multibagger potential

Early entry into high-growth businesses

Often undervalued compared to mainboard peers

Cons of SME IPOs:
Low liquidity post-listing

Price volatility is high

Promoter quality needs deeper due diligence

Some may be “pump and dump” type plays

🧠 Should You Apply for IPOs?
Here’s how to decide whether an IPO is worth applying to:

🔍 Key Factors to Consider
Company Fundamentals

Revenue, profit trend, debt levels, ROE, margins

Business model — is it scalable?

Promoter Background

Are promoters credible? Any fraud history?

Prior experience and educational background

Valuation

Is it overvalued compared to listed peers?

Use P/E, P/B, EV/EBITDA ratios

IPO Objectives

Is the money being used for business growth?

Or just for promoter exit?

Grey Market Premium (GMP)

While unofficial, GMP shows listing expectations

Be cautious though — GMPs can be manipulated

🧾 How to Apply for an IPO (Step-by-Step)
🛠️ Through UPI-enabled Broker Apps (Zerodha, Groww, etc.)
Go to IPO section

Select IPO > Enter lot size (1 lot = 100 shares typically)

Enter UPI ID > Submit

Accept mandate in UPI app (PhonePe/Google Pay)

Wait for allotment (T+3 now, earlier T+6)

💡 Pro Tip:
Use multiple demat accounts (self, spouse, family) to increase allotment chances in oversubscribed issues.

🧾 What if You Don’t Get Allotment?
Don’t worry! You can:

Buy from listing day (at open or on dips)

Track stocks for post-IPO corrections (good entries happen 1–3 months later)

Use SME listing trends to plan swing trades

📊 Technical Strategy for IPO Traders
Gap Up Listings: Wait 5–15 mins post open → enter on pullback or breakout

F&O stocks: Use option straddle/strangle around listing day for volatility

SME IPOs: Watch for delivery volume, UC/LC hits, and media chatter

🧭 What’s Next for IPOs in 2025?
The pipeline remains very strong.

Upcoming Big IPOs:
PharmEasy (health tech)

Ola Electric (EV leader)

MobiKwik (fintech)

Navi Finserv (Sachin Bansal-backed)

Snapdeal (retail comeback)

Also, dozens of SMEs across states like Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan are planning listings in Q3–Q4 2025.

SEBI is also working to merge SME IPOs to mainboard faster, which could give early investors big rewards.

✍️ Final Thoughts
The IPO and SME buzz in 2025 is not just hype — it’s a real wealth-building opportunity for informed investors.

Yes, some IPOs are risky.
Yes, some are overhyped.
But the ones with good businesses, honest promoters, and solid demand are delivering massive returns.

This trend is part of a larger India story — where startups, manufacturers, tech firms, and SMEs are finally getting the capital and visibility they deserve
