How to find upcoming IPOs and never miss one
Most IPOs are open for only three working days, and SME IPOs can be small and easy to miss. A little planning means every family member applies in time.
Where IPOs are announced
Companies file a draft prospectus (DRHP) with SEBI months ahead. Once approved, the dates and the RHP are announced, usually about a week before opening, and the price band a few days before. NSE and BSE list upcoming issues on their websites, and broker apps show them in their IPO section.
IPO Khata's lists
IPO Khata's upcoming IPOs, current IPOs and IPO calendar pages show every mainboard and SME IPO with its dates, price band, lot size and GMP, and there are pages for IPOs closing today and tomorrow. Each month also has its own IPO list.
Getting the family ready
Before a popular IPO opens, check that each person's demat account is active, their UPI app works, and their bank account has enough balance for the bid. Approving mandates early avoids the last-day rush, when UPI delays are most common.
Keeping track
Record each application in IPO Khata as you place it. It shows what's blocked for each person, checks allotments and emails the results.
