May 2022 was an important month for the markets in a variety of ways. It was the month when the LIC IPO actually took place. Naturally, the final size and valuations were smaller than expected. With a value of Rs 21,008 crore, LIC is still by far the biggest IPO.
The Rs 5,235 crore IPO of Delhivery Ltd. was the other significant offering. Similar to LIC, the digital logistics company's IPO had a pretty muted response. However, in post-listing terms, Delhivery stock has been able to trade above the firm's IPO price, whereas LIC continues to trade at a discount to the issue price. In actuality, there were other IPO-related stories as far as May 2022 is concerned.
There were a total of 7 initial public offerings (IPOs) in May 2022, 4 of which are profitable and 3 of which are not. The best-performing initial public offering (IPO) among those that were listed in May 2022 was Campus Activewear, which is quoting at a premium of 22% over the issue price. Delhivery Ltd., which is trading 11.09 percent above the IPO price, was the second-best performer.
Prudent Corporate Advisory, which trades at a discount of -18.94% to the issue, had the lowest performance in May 2022. Additionally, the huge LIC IPO is currently selling -13.43% below the IPO price. Evidently, neither the post-listing nor the subscriptions have been very promising.
What will happen with IPOs in July 2022?
While waiting for the LIC IPO to finish, a long list of approved upcoming IPOs are waiting in the wings. Now that the LIC IPO is officially over, attention is turning to the global macro and geopolitical environment. That is still a moving target and might obstruct the smooth flow of upcmoing IPO 2023.
The companies listed below are anticipated to go public in the months of June and July 2022, while the dates and price ranges have not yet been disclosed for each company. The final IPO decision is dependent on a number of variables. The list below is simply a preliminary list at this time.
