Samvat 2080 has emerged as a blockbuster year for the Indian primary market, with 82 companies raising an impressive Rs 1.08 trillion so far. This figure is poised to increase, as several initial public offerings (IPOs) remain open for subscription before the year concludes.

Leading the charge was South Korean automaker Hyundai Motors, which made a remarkable entry into the Indian market with a Rs 27,000 crore IPO—the largest ever raised through this route.
Meanwhile, Bajaj Housing Finance Limited’s IPO garnered an overwhelming response, attracting Rs 3.2 trillion in bids for its Rs 6,560 crore offering. The IPO received nearly 9 million applications, shattering the previous record held by Tata Technologies, which also launched its IPO during the same Samvat year.
