Abstract

Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) attract strong investor attention in the Indian stock market due to their potential for high listing gains and growth prospects. However, IPOs are also characterized by high volatility, pricing inefficiencies, and investor sentiment-driven fluctuations. This study evaluates the risk and return characteristics of IPO-based trading strategies using a six-month post-listing performance of 22 IPOs listed in India during 2024. Monthly returns and standard deviation are used as measures of return and risk. The findings reveal that although certain IPOs generate strong short-term gains, overall risk remains high and returns are inconsistent. The study concludes that IPOs are better suited for long-term investment strategies rather than speculative short-term trading.
