After a brief lull in the first quarter of 2022, things got busy in India’s primary market with as many as 12 listings in April and May (here is a list of IPOs in 2022). Out of these, we had 7 positive listings while 5 IPOs debuted with losses. Nevertheless, average listing day gains in these 12 IPOs stood at 10%. Given the positive gains in these IPOs despite jittery market conditions, investors are ample reasons to look forward to upcoming IPOs in June 2022. Here is a list of IPOs expected in June 2022.
