How did india overtake America and China?
Big countries like America and China, which were earlier leading in terms of IPOs, have now lagged behind India. In 2024, US NASDAQ listed IPOs raised $16.5 billion (about ₹ 1.35 lakh crores) and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) listed IPOs raised $15.9 billion (about ₹ 1.33 lakh crores), while india raised ₹ 19.5 billion. This figure shows that India has raised much more capital than America and China.
There are many reasons behind this success of India. First of all, the increasing venture capital funding and the number of startups in india have contributed a lot. In the last few years, many new companies have come in the indian market, and the IPOs of these companies have given india a strong position globally.
Impact of increasing venture funds in India
A major reason for the success of India's IPO market is the increasing investment of venture capital funds. Investments in venture funded IPOs have doubled since the year 2021. IPOs of companies backed by venture capital in india have reached new heights of success. Companies like Nykaa, Zomato, Paytm, Delivery, swiggy and PolicyBazaar are included in this list.
These companies have made india attractive for global investors with their IPOs. The business of these companies has grown rapidly and their popularity is also skyrocketing. Investors liked the IPOs of these companies and they got huge investments, as a result of which these companies made india the country to raise the most money.
