IPOs
What is SME IPO?
Hinglish mein padhein: SME IPO kya hota hai?
SME IPOs are issues by small and medium enterprises that list on the NSE Emerge or BSE SME platforms, with bigger lots and lighter rules.
Minimum investment is much higher than mainboard IPOs and liquidity after listing can be very thin.
SEBI has tightened SME IPO rules because of concerns over inflated financials and price manipulation — read the prospectus carefully.
