Money is the basis of any economic activity. Companies also need capital to finance their activities. A company has these options to raise money – own capital, borrowing – either from some third party or bank, issuance of bonds, and issuance of shares<\/a>. The most common and preferred way is to issue shares. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, a company can offer 10 lakh shares of Rs 10 each to the general public and raise Rs 1 cr, if subscribed fully. Of course, the promise to pay a dividend<\/a> is there. The issuance of shares can be done in a variety of methods. Like private placement, public issue, or initial public offer<\/a> (IPO<\/a>), follow on public offer (FPO), offer for sale<\/a>, and so on. This article focuses on the IPO and FPO processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
