The $118.7-million Bharat Coking Coal IPO drew bids worth $13 billion last week, making it one of the most heavily subscribed state-run offerings in recent years.
“The issue was priced reasonably, especially for a low-ticket IPO, offering an attractive risk-reward profile,” said Prashanth Tapse, senior vice president (research) at Mehta Equities.

India ranked as the world's second-largest primary market in 2025 after the United States, with 367 IPOs raising $21.8 billion, according to LSEG data.
