India’s capital markets are poised for a significant year ahead. 2026 is expected to witness a strong pipeline of Initial Public Offerings (IPOs), with projected fundraising of approximately ₹1.77 lakh crore across sectors.

Planning To Get Listed? A Major Decision
Going public is the ambition of many growing companies. It corroborates past achievements and propels future growth by access to a more widely distributed capital. SME Exchanges provide the right launch pad for companies with strong business models and high growth potential. However, going public is a paradigm shift for a private company as it would be required to appreciate the need to meet initial and sustained expectations of external investors and; appreciate the need to have a team, organization structure and internal processes which bring about investor credibility and capability to efficiently manage the capital market processes and increased level of scrutiny, reporting, compliances and regulatory obligations.
It is therefore critical that before considering a public listing, you have realistic awareness of your current level of preparedness and what needs to be done to become a successfully listed company.
