IPOs Next Week: The primary market witnessed some major listings in both main board and small- and medium-sized enterprise (SME) segments last month and in October's first week, which kept investors engaged with subscriptions and listings. Moving on, the second week of October sees strong market buzz - as new initial public offering (IPO) issues are closing and a bunch of companies are set to make their debut on D-Street. During the period September 30 – October 6, two mainboard IPOs Valiant Laboratories and Plaza Wires opened for listing raising an amount of ₹223.74 crore, according to market observers.
‘’The IPO market has been buzzing this fiscal year with at least two to three public offers opening every day. There were fewer mega IPOs compared to last year, as more companies raised smaller tranches of money; but also rewarded investors better,'' said Mahavir Lunawat, Managing Director, Pantomath Capital Advisors Pvt. Ltd, a mid-market investment bank.
