WHAT AILS OUR PRIMARY MARKET - GREED?

Stock markets on Friday closed at record high. If the secondary market is buoyant, primary market should witness flurry of IPOs. However the scenario is different. So far in 2014, the market has seen only 4 IPOs.  

In 2010 the market witnessed  71 companies getting listed through an IPO. In 2011 it was down to 40. And in 2012 there were only 12 primary issues. 2013 was still worse. Only 5 companies got their shares listed.

The law of economics tells us that if the price is right, there would be demand for practically any scrip. It appears that the greed of the issuers got the better of their discretion and judgment. The lead managers to the issues also need to take the blame for poor professional judgment and advice whereby they could not persuade the issuers to price their issues realistically, leaving some thing for the investors too. Some issues get over subscription due to high premia in the grey market, which disappears, once the issue closes. The uninformed investors become victims of such market manipulations. Together, the issuers and the merchant bankers are responsible for the pathetic condition of primary market.
