IPO Market Sees 25% Average Listing Gains in Two Months

India’s IPO market has staged a strong comeback in July and August, with 18 of 22 listings delivering positive debut-day returns.

Average listing gains stood at 25%, sharply higher than the 7% recorded in Q1FY27. The rebound matters for a market that had seen a softer start to the year, because debut performance often shapes near-term investor participation and sets the tone for upcoming offerings. Analysts expect the momentum to continue, supported by strong investor sentiment, attractive valuations and a pipeline of major upcoming IPOs.
