Investment management & financial innovations, 2017

This study attempts to provide new evidence on the first day IPO market performance using a set of 235 IPOs newly listed between April 1, 1997 and March 31, 2008 on the Indian Stock Exchange. The study examines how a change in the institutional arrangements that govern the pricing of IPOs, from the traditional fixed price approach to the building of a book, affects the level of underpricing. It also extends the literature on underpricing by comparing underpricing under the two pricing methods. The study adds new evidence to the existing literature on IPOs in a significant manner. Firstly, in consistence with the ‘hot issue markets’ theory (Ibbotson and Jaffe, 1975; Ritter, 1984), it highlights that on the main board of the Indian Exchange, IPO underpricing increased in 2007. The empirical findings indicate a significantly mean positive underpricing (14.45 %); nonetheless, 60% of IPOs in the sample are initially overpriced. Secondly, in contrast with Giudici and Paleari (1999), the s...

A Study on Comparison of Indian IPOs (2004:2008) Under pricing Based on Issue Size, Ownership Structure, Sector, Activity Time Period and Year of Issuance

Paripex Indian Journal of Research, 2013

Many studies have documented that Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) of equity are substantially underpriced. This paper provides evidence on comparison of under pricing in India with the help of the whole population of firms that went public between 2004 and 2008. Since the Indian economy was liberalized in the early ‘90s, India has seen a tremendous growth of its capital markets with close to 5,000 Initial Public Offerings (IPOs), second only to the United States of America. It is found that a significant number of companies earn large positive returns on the first day of listing. It is reported that on an average the Indian IPOs are underpriced to the tune of 32.30 per cent on the listing day. It has been found that the positive initial return persists for 72.92 per cent of the total IPOs. Descriptive Statistics like Mean, Median and Standard deviation and interferential test like Kruskal Wallis and Mann Whitney U test have been used for comparison of IPOs based on their IPOs issue size, based on their sector, based on type of ownership, based on type of activity period and based on year of issuance. Evidence is found that, underperformance is not influenced by offer size, sector, ownership and timing of issue. Whereas, under performance is influenced by Year of issuance.

Introduction: In 1999, investment banks were allowed to use a version of book building as a mechanism for bringing IPOs to the Indian capital market. Book building refers to the process of generating, capturing, and recording investor demand for shares during an IPO in order to support efficient price discovery. A second method, in which the company itself fixes the price, is known as the fixed-price method. The literature on IPO underpricing is extensive. However, few studies examine the effect of book building on underpricing. Comparing book built with fixed price IPOs, they found that underpricing is more in book built issues in all countries. Recent researches on IPOs have focused on difference in pricing mechanism across countries. Objectives: The paper attempts to analyze that whatever there is any significant difference in the magnitude of level of underpricing of ipos that priced through book build with those that are priced through the fixed price option. Research Methodology: A total of 619 IPOs were listed in Indian capital market from 2000-2011. At Bombay stock exchange a total of 550 IPOs were listed from 2000-2011. The sample for the study consists of these 550 IPOs, IPOs were priced through book built & Fixed price option. Out of 550 IPOs 405 (73.13%) through Book build and 145 (26.87) were issued through fixed price option. In the study offer price and 1 st day closing price is used to calculate underpricing. And Mean is used to magnitude the level of underpricing. Findings: As far as magnitude of underpricing is concerned, the book-build and fixed price option gave different results. We found significant difference in level of magnitude of underpricing in IPOs that priced through book build with those that are priced through the fixed price option.
