Frequently Asked Questions
How to calculate profit from IPO?
IPO Profit = (Listing Price - Issue Price) × Number of Shares. Example: 1 lot of 30 shares at ₹500, listed at ₹650 → profit = (650-500) × 30 = ₹4,500.
How much can I invest in an IPO?
Retail investors can apply up to ₹2,00,000. You must apply in lot multiples — minimum is 1 lot, maximum depends on lot size and price band staying within ₹2L.
What is the minimum investment for IPO?
Minimum is 1 lot × upper price band. If lot size = 30 shares at ₹500, minimum = ₹15,000. This varies per IPO.
Is IPO profit taxable in India?
Yes. Selling on listing day = STCG at 15%. Holding over 1 year = LTCG at 10% (above ₹1L exemption). Most IPO investors sell on listing day, so 15% tax applies.
