Upcoming IPOs in India (2021)

In the last five months of 2021, several IPOs have been successfully listed. These include Lodha Developers, Barbeque Nation, Kalyan Jewellers, and IRFC. If you missed them, make sure you go through this list of upcoming IPOsS for the rest of the year. 

As of now, the dates and the issue size are tentative for most companies, but this piece will give you a fair idea of what’s going to be happening in the Indian IPO market for the rest of 2021. The process of applying to SEBI for listing an IPO requires submitting the draft red herring prospectus (DRHP), and most companies discussed below have already done that or are in the process of doing so. 

Certain reports suggest about 30 companies will be raising over Rs 30,000 crores from the market. So, the latter half of 2021 can prove to be an exciting time for investors.

Conclusion

Now that you have a fair idea of the upcoming IPOs in India in 2021 with the company backgrounds and IPO issue size, you can plan your next moves accordingly. It’s important to take a deeper look into the pros and cons of each company’s IPO and the foundations of the firm before you go ahead and make an investment. You also need to consider which of your investments among the various companies will align with your financial goals. 

A few things to keep in mind when investing in the upcoming IPOs is to know how the company will utilise the proceeds. If the company plans to use the proceeds entirely for debt repayment, then you may want to reconsider. At least a part of the proceeds should be used for general corporate affairs. You should also take a look at the company’s valuation, and you can compare it with the valuation of other companies in that industry to know where it stands. Another thing to keep in mind is the promoters of a company may not also guarantee the success of its IPO.
