India’s Historic IPO Rush: How To Choose The Right IPO Amid Retail FOMO

India’s primary market is witnessing a massive IPO rush, with six IPOs opening together in a rare event and several more lined up. The surge comes as the secondary market struggles to deliver strong returns, making IPOs increasingly attractive to retail and foreign investors. Chakri Lokapriya, Managing Director & CIO, TCG Advisory Services, explains how investors should navigate the growing choice and avoid FOMO. He highlights the impact of large upcoming IPOs such as Jio and NSE on market liquidity, while also discussing selective opportunities among smaller issues.
