INTRODUCTION
IPO stands for Initial Public Offering and means the new offer of shares from a
company which was previously unlisted. This is done by offering those shares to
the public, which were held by the promoters or the private investors prior to the
IPO. In case when other investors or promoter held the shares the stake holding
comes down to the extent their shares are offered to the public. In other cases new
shares are issued to the public and the shares, which are with the promoters stay
with them. In both cases the share of the promoters in the total capital comes down.

WHAT IS AN IPO?
An IPO is the first sale of stock by a company to the public. IPO is a process by
which a privately held company becomes a publically traded company offering its
shares to the public for the first time. A private company, that has a handful of
shareholders, shares the ownership by going public by trading its shares. Through
the IPO, the company gets its name listed on the stock exchange.
A privately held company has fewer shareholders and its owners don’t have to
disclose much information about the company. Anybody can go out and
incorporate a company: just put in some money, file the right legal documents and
follow the reporting rules of your jurisdiction. Most small business are privately
held. But large companies can be private too. Did you know that IKEA, Domino’s
Pizza and Hallmark Cards are all privately held.
The first sale of stock by a private company to the public, IPO’s are often issued by
smaller, younger companies seeking capital to expand, but can also be done by

PRIMARY MARKET
The first time that a company’s shares are issued to the public, it is by a
process called the Initial Public Offering (IPO). In an IPO the company offloads a
certain percentage of its total shares to the public at a certain price.
Most IPO’s these days not have a fixed offer price. Instead they follow a method
called BOOK BUILDIN PROCESS, where the offer price is placed in a band or a
range with the highest and the lowest value (refer to the newspaper clipping on the
page). The public can bid for the shares at any price in the band specified. Once the
bids come in, the company evaluates all the bids and decides on an offer price in
that range. After the offer price is fixed, the company allots its shares to the people
who had applied for its shares or returns them their money.
SECONDARY MARKET
Once the offer price is fixed and the shares are issued to the people, stock
exchanges facilitate the trading of shares for the general public. Once a stock is
listed on an exchange, people can start trading in its shares. In a stock exchange the
existing shareholders sell their shares to anyone who is willing to buy them at a
price agreeable to both parties. Individuals cannot buy or sell shares in a stock
exchange directly; they have to execute their transaction through authorized
members of the stock exchange who are also called STOCK BROKERS.

DOCUMENTS REQUIRED
A company coming out with a public issue has to come out with an Offer
Document/prospectus.
An offer document is the document that contains all the information you
need about the company. It will tell you why the company is coming is out
with a public issue, its financials and how the issue will be priced.
The Draft Offer Document is the offer document in the draft stage. Any
company making a public issue is required to file the draft offer document
with the Securities and Exchange Board of India, the market regulator.
If SEBI demands any changes, they have to be made. Once the changes are
made, it is filed with the Registrar of Companies or the Stock Exchange. It
must be filed with SEBI at least 21 days before the company files with the
Stock Exchange. During this period, you can check it out on the SEBI
Website.

Basically, going public (or participating in an “Initial Public Offering”) is the
process in which a business owned by many. It involves the offering of part
ownership of the company to the public through the sale of debt or more
commonly, equity security (stock).
Going public raises cash and usually a lot of it. Being publically traded also
opens many financial doors.

INVESTOR RESEARCH:
It is imperative to properly analyze the IPO investor is planning to invest into. He
needs to do a thorough research at his end and try to figure out if the objective of
the company match his own personal objectives or not. The unpredictable nature of
IPO’s and volatility of the stock market adds greatly to the risk factor. So, it is
advisable that the investor does his homework, before investing.

IPO
Liquidity
Once shares of a company are traded on a public exchange, those shares
have a market value and retain employees by offering stock incentive
packages to those employees. Moreover, it also provides investors in the
company the option to trade their shares thus enhancing investor
confidence.
Increased prestige
Public companies often are better known and more visible than private
companies. This enables them to obtain a larger market for their goods or
services. Public companies are able to have access to larger pools of
capital as well as different types of capital.
Valuation
Public trading of a company’s share sets a value for the company that is
set by the public market and not through more subjective standards set
by a private valuator. This is helpful for a company that is looking for
17
IPO
Increased wealth
The founders of the company often have the sense of the increase wealth
as a result of the IPO. Prior to the IPO these shares now have illiquid and
had a more subjective price. These shares now have an ascertainable
price and after any lockup period these shares may be sold to the public,
subject to limitations of federal and state securities laws.
Disclosure
The SEC disclosure rules are very extensive. Once a company is a
reporting company it must provide information regarding compensation
of senior management, transaction with parties related to the company,
conflicts of interest, competitive positions, how the company intends to
develop future products, material contracts, and lawsuits. In addition,
once the offering statement is effective, a company will be required to
make financial disclosures required by the Securities and Exchange Act
of 1934. The 1934 act requires public companies to file quarterly
statements containing unaudited financial statements and audited
financial statements annually. These statements must also contain
updated information regarding nonfinancial matters similar to

Promoters
Is the company a family run business or is it professionally owned? Even
with a family run business what are the credibility and professional
qualifications of those managing the company? Do the top level
managers have enough experience (of at least 5 years) in the specific
type of business?
Industry Outlook
The products or services of the company should have a good demand and
scope for profit.
Business Plans
Check the progress made in terms of land acquisition, clearances from
various departments, purchase of machinery, letter of credits etc. a
higher initial investment from the promoters will lead to a higher faith in
the organization.
Financials
Why does the company requires the money? Is the company floating
more equity than required? What is the debt component? Keep a track on
the profits, growth and margins of the previous years. A steady growth
rate is the quality of a fundamentally sound company. Check the
assumptions the promoters are making and whether these assumptions or
expectations sound feasible.
Risk Factors

IPO GRADING
IPO grading (initial public offering grading) is a service aimed at facilitating
the assessment of equity issues offered to public. The grade assigned to any
individual issue represents a relative assessment of the ‘fundamentals’ of that
issue in relation to the other listed equity securities in India. IPO grading is
positioned as a service that provides ‘an independent assessment of
fundamentals’ to aid comparative assessment that would prove useful as an
information and investment tool for investors. Moreover such a service would
be particularly useful for assessing the offering of companies assessing the
equity markets for the first time where there is no track record of their market
performance.
Credit Rating agencies (CRAs) like ICRA, CRISIL, and Fitch Ratings who are
registered with SEBI will carry out IPO grading. SEBI does not play any role
in the assessment made by the grading agency. The grading is intended to be an
independent and unbiased opinion of that agency. IPO grading is not
mandatory but is optional and the assigned grade would be a one time
assessment done at the timeof the IPO and meant to aid investors who are
interested in investing in the IPO. The grade will not have any ongoing
validity.
25

The IPO grading is indicated on a five point scale and a higher score indicating
stronger fundamental.

SUGGETIONS
The investment in IPO can prove to risky because the investor does not
know anything about the company because it is listed first time in the market
so its performance cannot be measure.
On the other hand it can be said that the higher the risk, higher the returns
earned. So we can say that the tough risky if investment is done then it can
give higher returns as well.
Primary market is more volatile than the secondary market because all the
companies are listed for the first time in the market so nothing can be said
about its performance.
If higher risk is taken, it is always rewarded with the higher returns. So
higher the risk more the returns rewarded for it.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
WHAT IS RESEARCH METHODOLOGY?
Research may be defined as a careful investigation of enquiry specially through
search for new facts in any branch of knowledge in a professional manner. It is the
science that tells the method of doing research, it mainly consists of following
steps:
RESEARCH DESIGN
The research design in this study is Descriptive. Descriptive research studies are
those studies, which are concerned with describing the characteristics of a
particular individual, or of a group. The study’s concerned with narration of facts
and characteristics concerning individual, group or situation are all examples of
Descriptive research studies.
DATA COLLECTION
Collection of data is very important step because accuracy in data is a factor of the
method used for data collection. Thus there are two ways of collecting appropriate
data:
Primary data
Secondary data
Primary data are those, which are collected for the first time, thus
happened to be original in character. For the purpose of primary data I’ve
collected data from “Angel Brokers”, under the supervision of Mr. DEEPAK
PRAJAPATI during my internship, for the purpose of getting the
information.
CONCLUSION
Price is an important factor for any investment. What this means is that a company
listing at 10-15 times its price earning can be a good investment, but the same
company at 40-50 price times earning can be a terribly bad investment. Secondly, a
fundamentally strong company neither means too much of capital appreciation, nor
absolute safety of investment in the market.
If we look at the recent history of the IPO market, all real estate companies got
huge responses at the time of the issue, but the sector could not sustain these high
valuations. Price plays an important role in investments and the market itself
throws enough clues periodically. It is necessary to catch these in time.
The research study is found that the listing of IPO in primary market is given
higher return but is a risky instrument and short term investment. The motive of the
study is to collect the overall information about IPO. The study concluded that
investing in IPO is required a small business interested in going public must apply
to the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) for permission to sell stock to the
public.
