IPO frenzy: 14 new public issues and 12 listings scheduled for this week

As July—the first half of which had set a six-year record of being the busiest IPO month mopping up over ₹36,000 crore—winds down, companies are hitting the Dalal Street like there is no tomorrow—the next seven days will see as many as 14 companies joining the IPO frenzy, raising more than ₹7,300 crore, including ₹7,008 crore by five mainboard IPOs.

That's almost three issues a day, as the market week is only five days. The five-day week beginning July 28 is also set to be among the busiest one for the IPO market in a long time, in terms of listing as well with a dozen companies scheduled for market debut.
