After heightened activity in 2024, there has been a slowdown in new listings, with no main-board IPOs hitting the market in the past three weeks due to a correction in the secondary market.
This slowdown in market is reflected in IPO activities, as only five companies went public in January and four in February, compared to 16 listings in December 2024. This shift follows a remarkable 2024 in which 91 maiden public issues collectively raised ₹1.6 lakh crore, driven by robust retail participation, a resilient economy, and booming private capital expenditure.
