    • The memorandum as prescribed in Form 2A under sub-section (3) of section 56 of the Companies Act, 1956. It contains all the salient features of a prospectus. It accompanies the application form of public issues.
    • Add on offering
    • When a publicly traded company issues additional shares to the public.
    • Allocation
    • This is the amount of stock in an initial public offering (IPO) granted by the underwriter to an investor. For most IPOs, the allocation is significantly less than the indication of interest. The allocations are meted out based on commission volume, trading history and type of investor.
    • Aftermarket
    • All trading activity in an IPO or secondary subsequent to the new issue offering from the underwriters.
    • Aftermarket Orders
    • Underwriters look favorably on investors who buy IPOs in the days after the IPO first goes public. While underwriters cannot solicit aftermarket orders, some expect investors to purchase two or three times their IPO allocation in the aftermarket.
    • Aftermarket Performance
    • The price appreciation (or depreciation) in IPOs is measured from the offering price going forward. However, to obtain a better benchmark of IPO aftermarket performance, some investors track performance from the first day close.

    • Basis of Allocation/Basis of Allotment
    • After the closure of the issue, the bids received are aggregated under different categories i.e., firm allotment, Qualified Institutional Buyers, QIBs, Non-Institutional Buyers, NIBs, Retail, etc. The over subscription ratios are then calculated for each of the categories as against the shares reserved for each of the categories in the offer document. Within each of these categories, the bids are then segregated into different buckets based on the number of shares applied for. The over subscription ratio is then applied to the number of shares applied for and the number of shares to be allotted for applicants in each of the buckets is determined. Then, the number of successful allottees is determined. This process is followed in case of proportionate allotment. In case of allotment for QIBs, it is subject to the discretion of the post issue lead manager.
    • Bid
      • Represents the price at which someone is willing to buy your stock on a market order. Bid-Ask Spread The difference between the bid price and the ask price. Board of DirectorsThe composition of the Board of Directors is particularly critical for an IPO. Typically, a board is composed of inside and outside directors. Inside directors could be management, significant shareholders, venture capitalists, vendors and relatives. Outside directors have no underlying financial or personal relationship with the company that could create a conflict of interest and are on the board for their experience, business judgment and contacts. Outside directors may own stock, but are not large shareholders. Investors should look for a board that has a majority of outside directors. Typically, IPOs add their first outside directors at or immediately after the offering. Book A list of all indications of interest for a new issue-offering put together by the lead underwriter.
