The much-awaited NSE IPO will open for subscription between Sep 17 and 21, 2026. Some Demat accounts allow you to skip the line and pre-apply to IPOs.

However, you can skip the queue and apply for it before the IPO opens.

Let’s understand how you can do this.

How to Pre-Apply to NSE IPO?

Pre-applying to the NSE IPO is the option to apply to the IPO a day prior to its opening for public subscription. This helps investors to skip the queue by submitting important details such as preferred lot size, bidding price, and UPI details in advance. 

On the day of the public subscription being open, your broker automatically sends these details to the exchange. Pre-applying ensures you do not miss the application deadline and avoid the last-minute rush.

Here are the steps to follow to pre-apply to NSE IPO via broker's platform. 

• Log in to your Demat account.
• Go to the IPO section.
• Select the NSE IPO.
• Enter the number of lots and bidding prices.
• Fill in your UPI details.

• Review your application and press submit. 

  When can you Pre-Apply to the NSE IPO?

  The pre-application window can differ across brokers. On Angel One Demat, you can pre-apply to the NSE IPO days prior, that is, September 12, 2026, subject to approval of the required parameters by the exchange. 

  Conclusion

  With the NSE IPO scheduled to open for subscription from September 17 to September 21, 2026, investors can consider using the pre-apply facility to prepare their applications in advance. However, investors should note that pre-application does not guarantee IPO allotment. It is important to review the issue details, eligibility criteria, and associated investment risks and make decisions based on their individual financial objectives.
