IPO

An Initial Public Offer (IPO) is a means of raising money from the public by a company for the first time in the market to fund its projects. In return, the company offers the shares to the investors in the company. IPO is also known as public offering or flotation. These offers are often issued by smaller, medium size, startup and large-scale companies seeking the investment capital to expand and publicly trade.

In the IPO, Lead managers generally decide the price of the issue. In a financial book building process, the syndicate members decide the indicative price range and the investors decide the price of the issue through a tender method.

In such public offers, an exclusive draft prospectus including information on finances of the company, promoters, background, tentative issue price etc, to be filed by the Lead Managers with the Securities & Exchange Board of India (SEBI) provide issue details. The final draft of an IPO prospectus has to be printed only after obtaining the clearance from SEBI and the Registrar of Companies (ROC).
