What is an IPO Calendar and How to Use It?
An IPO (Initial Public Offering) Calendar is a day-by-day schedule of companies raising capital by listing shares on the stock exchange for the first time. StockeZee's IPO Calendar groups every issue by live status: Live (open for subscription right now), Forthcoming (announced and opening soon), and Listed (recently debuted on the exchange). For each IPO you can see the price band, minimum lot size for retail investors, total issue size in crore rupees, bidding window open and close dates, the exchange (NSE, BSE, or both), whether it is a mainboard or SME issue, GMP, and the live subscription multiple. Use the calendar to shortlist IPOs worth applying for and never miss a bidding window.

Frequently Asked Questions
A Live IPO is currently open for subscription — the bidding window is active. You can apply through your bank's ASBA facility or via a SEBI-registered stockbroker's app using your UPI ID. The IPO will show an open and close date on StockeZee's IPO Calendar. Make sure to apply before 5:00 PM IST on the closing date. Funds are blocked in your bank account and only debited if you receive an allotment.
GMP (Grey Market Premium) is the unofficial premium at which an IPO's shares trade in the grey market before the official stock exchange listing. For example, if an IPO has a price band of ₹100–₹110 and the GMP is ₹50, market participants expect the shares to list around ₹160. GMP is not regulated by SEBI and is only a sentiment indicator — actual listing price may differ significantly. StockeZee tracks GMP data to give investors an early sense of listing expectations.
IPO subscription status shows how many times the total shares on offer have been applied for by investors. An IPO is 'oversubscribed' when applications exceed the available shares. For example, a 50× oversubscription means applications were received for 50 times more shares than offered. High oversubscription — especially in the QIB and NII categories — signals strong institutional demand and is often associated with better listing gains, though it also reduces allotment probability for retail investors.
A mainboard IPO is listed on the NSE Main Market or BSE Main Board and is open to all investor categories including retail, HNI, and institutional investors. Mainboard issues have stricter SEBI financial and profitability criteria. An SME IPO is listed on NSE Emerge or BSE SME platforms for smaller companies with less stringent listing requirements. SME IPOs have higher lot sizes for retail investors (typically ₹1–2 lakh minimum application) and are generally higher risk but can offer higher returns. Both types are tracked on StockeZee's IPO Calendar.
IPO allotment follows SEBI guidelines. If an IPO is oversubscribed in the retail (RII) category, a computerised lottery system is used — each applicant gets one lot or nothing. If undersubscribed, all retail applicants receive full allotment. For NII (HNI) and QIB categories, allotment is proportionate. Allotment results are published by the registrar (KFin Technologies, MUFG Intime India, Bigshare Services) typically within 6 trading days of the IPO closing date. You can check allotment status on the BSE website, NSE website, or the registrar's portal using your PAN or application number.
ASBA (Application Supported by Blocked Amount) is the mandatory mechanism for applying in IPOs in India. Instead of paying upfront, your application amount is blocked (not debited) in your bank account. Blocked funds continue to earn interest and are only debited when shares are allotted. If you don't receive an allotment, the block is released immediately after allotment results. ASBA applications can be submitted through your bank's net banking, stockbroker's trading app, or mobile banking app. The UPI-based application is the fastest method and works for retail applications up to ₹5 lakh.
IPO lot size is the minimum number of shares you must apply for in one application. Retail investors must apply in multiples of one lot. To calculate your application amount: multiply the lot size by the upper end of the price band. For example, if the lot size is 60 shares and the upper price band is ₹150, the minimum application amount is ₹9,000. SEBI mandates that the minimum retail IPO application value falls between ₹10,000 and ₹15,000. For SME IPOs, lot sizes are larger and minimum application amounts can range from ₹1 lakh to ₹2 lakh. You can find the lot size and price band for every IPO on StockeZee's calendar.
You can check your IPO allotment status through three methods: 1) BSE Website — go to bseindia.com, select Investors → IPO → Basis of Allotment, then enter your PAN or application number. 2) NSE Website — similar process at nseindia.com under the IPO section. 3) Registrar Website — each IPO has a designated registrar (KFin Technologies, MUFG Intime India, Bigshare Services). Visit the registrar's portal and enter your PAN, application number, or DP client ID. Allotment results are typically announced within 6 working days of the IPO closing.
The IPO listing date is when the company's shares are officially listed and start trading on the stock exchange for the first time. For mainboard IPOs, listing typically happens within 6 trading days after the issue closing date (T+6). On listing day, you can sell your allotted shares at the market price. If the listing price is above the issue price it is called a listing gain; if below, a listing loss. Listing day is often volatile due to high speculative interest. StockeZee's IPO Calendar shows the expected listing date for every recently closed IPO.
Evaluating which IPO to apply for depends on: 1) Company fundamentals — check revenue growth, profit margins, debt levels, and ROE. 2) Valuation — compare the IPO's P/E ratio with listed peers in the same industry. 3) IPO objectives — money raised for expansion is better than promoter offloading (OFS). 4) GMP (Grey Market Premium) — positive GMP indicates market optimism but is not guaranteed. 5) Subscription demand — high QIB oversubscription signals institutional confidence. 6) Industry outlook — IPOs in growing sectors like defence, renewables, and infrastructure tend to attract premium valuations. Always read the IPO prospectus (DRHP) available on SEBI's website before applying.
Yes. StockeZee's IPO Calendar includes both mainboard and SME IPOs across the NSE and BSE. You can filter by segment to view only SME issues (listed on NSE Emerge or BSE SME) or only mainboard issues. SME IPOs have higher lot sizes, higher minimum application amounts, and are generally more suitable for high-risk-tolerant investors. All SME IPOs are clearly tagged in the calendar.
