In the current year, the mood of the stock market has been up and down in the current year. From January to March, there was a significant decline in the stock market. But since April, the stock market has seen a boom with very good recovery. This is also the reason that by July 2025, 26 Mainboard IPOs have come in Indian stock exchanges, which present a mixed but promising picture of the primary market.
Out of these 26 IPOs, about 18 (about 70 percent) are trading above their issue price. Knowing deeply, 12 of them have registered a profit in double digit, which confirms that investors are fundamentally strong and good -priced offering.
Connecting the strength of the initial trend, open at about 20 IPO premiums, which indicate continuous demand on the day of listing despite wider market caution. Overall, the 2025 IPO batch may be small, but for intelligent investors, it is proving to be rich in opportunity and returns.
These two IPOs performed the best
Among those who perform the best, quality power electrical equipment has emerged as the most notable. Despite being listed at 9 per cent discount on its issue price of Rs 425 on February 24, the stock has gained a huge increase of 75 per cent, which is currently trading at Rs 737.
With an issue size of Rs 858 crore, the company has become a major property manufacturer for the IPO subscribers. There is another IPO that has given rough returns to investors, its name is Quadrant Future Tech Limited. This IPO was listed on January 14, 2025 with an issue size of Rs 290 crore.
Stock made a brilliant start with 53 per cent premium and is now trading up about 63 per cent above its issue price, making it the second best performing IPO of the year. Other IPOs who have given more than 20 percent returns from their respective issue price are quite long. The list consists of Skoda Tubes, Ellenbary Industrial Gases, Prostaram Info Systems, Sambhav Steel Tubes, Hexavier Technologies, Standard Glass Lining Technology and Globe Civil Projects.
This IPO is underperformer
However, not all are able to impress IPO. Some have seen a sharp decline after listing. Stocks such as Erisinfra Solutions, Capital Infra Trust and Indo Farm Equipment have fallen more than 20 per cent of their respective issue price. The case of Indo Farm Equipment is particularly notable – it was listed with an early premium of about 30 per cent, but it failed to maintain speed, resulting in a lot of damage to investors who maintained their allocation.
The biggest IPO of the year
Despite the relatively small amount of listing, some big-cap IPO dominated the fund-raising chart. At the forefront of the pack is HDB Financial Services Limited, which became public on July 2, 2025, which raised Rs 12,500 crore – which was the largest IPO of the year. The stock has been listed at Rs 841 with 14 per cent premium and has since climbed up to Rs 865, which gives 17 per cent profit from Rs 740. Another major offer was of hexaware technology, which raised Rs 8,759 crore. The stock started with 8 per cent premium and is currently trading at Rs 867, which shows its issue price of Rs 708 to 23 per cent returns.
Less IPO in 2024 match
By the way, less IPOs have been seen in the year 2025 in the year 2024. A living example of this is the size of the IPO. In the year 2024, IPO worth Rs 1.60 lakh crore came. Whereas in 2025 so far, companies have raised Rs 45,375 crore through IPO. This rapid decline is the increasing cautiousness among companies, which is probably affected by comprehensive economic uncertainty, unstable market conditions and strict investor investigation.
