With 30 issuers, led by the largest-ever issue of ₹25,000 crore by SBI, companies raised about ₹60,000 crore via this mode so far this year. In whole of 2024, 95 issuers had collectively raised ₹1.37 lakh crore.

Of the total so far, more than half of ₹30,470 crore came in from 10 issuers in July alone, taking total QIP fundraising to a five-year high. This marks the strongest monthly performance since September 2020 when six companies had raised over ₹39,000 crore via QIPs.
