HOW TO APPLY
How IPO applications actually work, market by market
Each market has its own channels: UPI and ASBA in India, receiving banks and investor numbers in the Gulf, broker allocations in the US, prospectus-named intermediaries in Europe. These guides explain who can apply, what you need and when, with the sources we checked.
Residence decides, not location
Your legal residence and nationality determine which routes apply. Browsing a market, your language or your currency never change that.
Channels, not just brokers
Receiving banks, exchange portals and registrars are first-class application channels in many markets. We list them all.
Sources and check dates
Every guide names the regulation or exchange document it rests on and the date we last checked it, with a scheduled review.
