Step-by-Step Guide to Applying for IPOs with Rupeezy (AsthaTrade)

It has been raining IPOs. In 2021, Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) from different new-age, technology-driven, and growing sectors flooded India. The number of IPOs is expected to remain high in 2022 as well. Some of the upcoming IPOs in 2022 are from LIC, Ruchi Soya, Mobikwik, Keventer Agro, Pharmeasy, Bajaj Energy, etc.

For the uninitiated, an IPO is how a private company goes public. They do this by issuing shares to the general public. Investing in the right IPO will improve your portfolio as IPOs are usually from high-growth companies. In the long term, these companies will pay off tremendously.

Also, If you want to invest in a small company that has the prospect of growing big, the IPO price is usually the best deal. This is due to the possibility of a discounted rate from the firm. It may be tough to invest in that promising firm if you miss the IPO period since the stock price may shortly surge.

But where do you apply or place your bids for the IPOs? You can easily do that by registering for an account at Astha Trade. It will allow you to apply for all the IPOs.
