EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
When a business entity needs money the general course of action that it follows is that
it goes to the bank. However, banks may not be ready to provide huge finance for a
long time especially if the returns are not fixed. The best way to raise money is
through offer of shares. The securities which the companies’ issue for the first time to
the public and other financial institutions either after incorporation or on conversion
from private to public company is called “INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING” or “IPO”.
Raising equity gives boost to economical development of the country. Raising money
through IPO is a very complex process. It requires analysis and implementation of
various commercial laws applicable to IPO-Prospectus. These laws are Companies
Act, Income Tax Act, FEMA, Securities Contract Act and SEBI Guidelines on
“Disclosure and Investor Protection”. It is also necessary to implement circulars from
time to time by SEBI. The introduction of SEBI attracted Foreign Institutional
Investors to invest money in stock market in India. It has also helped Indian
Companies to offer securities in most scientific Method to Indian and Foreign
investors Therefore to understand this complex subject; I decided to undertake Studies
by this Project Report.
