Controls and focus screens
- Time window. For example the next 30 days.
- Issue type. All, Mainboard or SME.
- Status as filed. Filter by the status the issuer filed, in addition to the computed focus screens.
- Live refresh and export. The page refreshes about every ten minutes, and the selection can be exported as a CSV.
- Focus screens. Full Tape, Live Now (a subscription window is open today), Closing Soon (the window shuts within three days), Pipeline (announced, window not yet open) and Recently Listed (hit the exchange in the last 30 days).
Summary cards count live windows, issues closing soon, the pipeline split between mainboard and SME, and the average reported issue size. A note explains the key rule: a window is Live only when today sits inside its open and close dates, not merely because a status field says so.
Calendar and list views
The calendar view shows a month grid with markers for opens, closes and listings, and the selected day's events below it, or a note that there are no opens, closes or listings on that date. The list view shows each issue as a row.
| Column | What it shows | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Issue | The issue name with a mainboard or SME classification. | SME issues carry higher risk, wider circuit bands and thinner liquidity after listing. |
| Status and window | Live or Pipeline, the open and close dates and a countdown. | Tells you what is actionable today. |
| Price band | The lower and upper issue price with a bar for the band width. Fixed-price issues show a flat band. | You can bid anywhere in the band up to the cut-off. |
| Lot and minimum cheque | The minimum application lot and the rupees one lot commits at the top of the band. | The cash one application ties up: band top multiplied by lot size. |
| Issue size | The reported size in rupees crore when supplied. | A rough gauge of how large the offer is. |
| Listing | The listing date, the listing price and the latest supplied trade price. | Allotment, listing and the first session turn an application into a position with real risk. A dash means no value from the source, and prices can be delayed. |
Illustrative arithmetic: a lot of 100 shares with an upper price band of 250 commits 100 x 250 = 25,000 rupees at the top of the band.
Before you apply
- Use Live Now and Closing Soon to find issues you can still act on, then check that the cheque fits your allocation and that you can be present on the listing date.
- Confirm the final price band, lot size and dates on the exchange filing, since issuers can revise terms during the window.
- Read the offer documents for the business, use of proceeds and risks, which a calendar cannot summarise.
- Decide your plan for allotment and for the listing day, including what you will do if you are not allotted or the issue lists below the band.
Limits
IPO applications carry lock-in, allotment risk and listing-day gaps. Subscription figures describe demand at a point in time and do not guarantee allotment or listing returns, and an empty calendar simply means nothing is scheduled in the chosen window. Issue size and price bands can be revised mid-window. This guide is educational and not a recommendation for any issue. For events on listed companies, see the Event Calendar guide.
