Mainboard IPO Dashboard

A Mainboard IPO is when a company lists its shares for the first time on NSE or BSE's main platform. It is regulated by SEBI and requires the company to meet higher eligibility criteria compared to SME IPOs, including minimum post-issue paid-up capital of ₹10 crore and a track record of profitability.

Mainboard IPOs are for larger companies with stricter SEBI requirements, listed on NSE/BSE mainboards. SME IPOs are for smaller companies listed on NSE Emerge or BSE SME platforms with relaxed norms and lower minimum application sizes.

The minimum investment in a Mainboard IPO is 1 lot. Lot sizes vary per IPO but SEBI mandates that the minimum application value be between ₹10,000 and ₹15,000 for retail investors.

GMP or Grey Market Premium is the unofficial premium at which IPO shares trade before official listing. It gives an indicative sense of market sentiment but is not regulated by SEBI and should not be used as the sole basis for investment decisions.

After an IPO closes, allotment status can be checked on the BSE website, NSE website, or through the IPO registrar (such as Kfintech or Link Intime) using your PAN number or application number.

You can apply through your broker's app or net banking using the ASBA (Application Supported by Blocked Amount) process. Enter your UPI ID, and approve the mandate on your UPI app. Funds are blocked, not debited, until allotment.
