Why Invest in the Current SME IPO?
During FY25, approximately 243 SMEs were listed on the BSE SME and NSE Emerge platforms. Investor interest in SME IPOs is rising for the following reasons:
Portfolio Diversification
Investing in current SME IPOs allows you to diversify your portfolio across different industries and sectors. Strong SME performance can balance risks during downturns in other investments.
Profit Generation
SME IPO shares are purchased in the primary market. Once listed in the secondary market, prices may appreciate. Selling at listing gains can help generate profits.
Easy Investments
SME IPOs typically have lower analyst coverage and participation from large institutions. This allows retail investors to analyse and invest confidently with relatively lower competition.

Use your PAN, Demat account number, or IPO application number to check subscription status on the NSE, BSE, or IPO registrar’s website.
