This kind of expectation and speculation is what makes IPOs exciting. Known name companies ka IPOs aur exciting hote hai. Ek newly well-known name, jiska product concept bhi advanced hai… jab unka IPO aa jata hai, investors toh nariyal phodne ke liye tayaar rehte hai. It is a matter of great excitement. The Paytm IPO falls in the third category. The IPO has made headlines and investors are thrilled. Google searches for Paytm IPO have multiplied 10 times around 13 June onwards when the news of the IPO first emerged. Toh chalo, let's wrap our heads around what might be the noisiest IPO of the year. #1 IPO amount: The Paytm IPO is expected to be for a huge 3 billion dollars, which amounts to Rs 21,000 to Rs 22,000 crore. Iss mein se, 1.6 billion dollars - which is about Rs 12,000 crore - is to be new stock, while the rest will be an offer for sale by existing shareholders. Yeh ab tak finalize nahi hua hai lekin Paytm ne apne shareholders ko intimate kiya hai ki July 12 pe extraordinary shareholders meeting rahega jisme yeh point discuss hoga. #2 Why is the Paytm IPO such a big deal? Is Mein chaar baatein hain, chaliye ek ek karke dekhte hain. Pehli baat: This is one of the largest IPO ever on the Indian stock market.

Dusri baat: Being a new and popular concept and being seen as the "future" goes a long way in creating a buzz around anything. The concept of digital wallet payments picked up tremendously amidst covid and logically, investors see it as becoming even more popular in an increasingly digital world. Third reason for it being such a big deal: E- wallet walon mein se Paytm is among the top brass. Paytm ka market share 12% hai aur unke aage hai sirf PhonePE aur Google Pay. Fourth: Brands that are known to the aam aadmi typically witness a larger buzz around their IPO. Paytm toh abh "household name" ban gaya hain. Sab koi Paytm use harte hai, nahi toh kam se kam they have heard the word/name Paytm. #3 When is the Paytm IPO slated for and how should investors gear up? Paytm IPO shayad November mein aaega although abhi kuch finalise nahi hua hai. Shareholders extraordinary meeting ke baad hi, Paytm apna Red Herring Prospectus iske baad file kar lenge. The Red Herring Prospectus is filed with SEBI - the Securities Exchange board of India, the regulator - and then they must wait until SEBI gives them the nod to go ahead with the IPO. Tayaar rehne ke liye investors should study Paytm's Red Herring Prospectus and it's past financials in order to evaluate its track record. #4 Who will be handling the Paytm IPO Abhi filhal secret sources se hi information bahar aa raha hai about this headline-hogging IPO.
