Performance of IPOs in 2021 and 2022
Twenty-two companies have collectively raised Rs. 44,000 crores through IPOs this year. 63 IPOs came in 2021, raising over Rs. 1.19 lac crores. Head of Research at Geojit Financial Services, Vinod Nair, said that the secondary market's volatility has resulted in weak IPOs in 2022 and the future does not look promising for the time being. However, the investors' response to the IPOs was decent, as they had the opportunity to invest in attractive companies at reasonable prices. He also said retail investors were looking to get listing gain. Nair said IPOs looked attractive to institutional investors as high-quality businesses brought diversification in schemes.
