Starting today, RateGain Travel Technologies IPO will open for bidding and soon Shriram Properties, CE Info Systems (MapmyIndia) and Metro Brands will launch their issues to cumulatively raise more than Rs 3,500 crore.

IPOs or Initial Public Offer have been one of the best ways for investors to enter a new company early on. Moreover, it helps the companies to secure funding for various projects and for existing shareholders to exit the company, if they wish to. IPOs are also underwritten or guaranteed by one or more banks. It means that if an IPO is not fully subscribed, they will buy the difference from the company.
Various factors influence people to apply for an IPO. Some of the factors are:
- The number of shares that are being sold by the company
- The potential growth of a company
- The financial growth in the last few years
- The business model of the company
- The assets and liabilities
- The goals from the IPO
- The grey market premium (it is the estimated price at which the IPOs may list in the stock markets)
