Retail investors have made huge profits through initial public offerings (IPOs) during the calendar year 2023. A total of 59 IPOs were listed in the market last year. They have given an average return of 26.3 per cent on the day of listing compared to their issue price. Retail investors can earn through IPO in 2024 also. The reason for this is that this year also many companies are ready to launch IPO.

According to the data of Prime Database, there are 24 companies which have received approval from SEBI to launch IPOs. These companies want to raise Rs 26 thousand crore through IPO. It is believed that considering the strong economic data, performance of previous IPOs and record rise in the markets, these companies can launch their IPO only in 2024.

Apart from this, 32 other companies have submitted draft documents with SEBI to launch IPOs. These companies want to raise Rs 35 thousand crore from the market through IPO. If they get approval from SEBI, they can also launch an IPO this year.

This optimism is driven by strong domestic and foreign investment, indicating improved growth prospects for Indian markets. The flow is expected to accelerate further once the election-related uncertainties are resolved.
