LG Electronics’ IPO saga is laying bare real-world frictions for Indian retail investors in 2025. The chatter centers on multi-broker bets, confirmation hiccups, and how to play listing-day moves. A thread points to oversubscription and a heavy retail quota shaping expectations, with mentions that retail allotment shares can swing sentiment after listing [1].
Broker-allotment quirks - A user reports getting an allotment for Zerodha but not for Upstox—and wonders whether multiple applications muddle the outcome [2]. - Discussions also orbit the PAN-based rule that single-pan, single-application logic tends to prevail, though real-world outcomes vary across cases [2].
Bidding confirmations - Investors applying via Kotak Mahindra Bank ASBA say they didn’t receive bidding confirmations via SMS or email, raising questions about how and when status updates show up [3].
Listing-day bets - On the Tata Capital IPO listing, folks debate what’s most likely: partial exits by those with 1 lot, averaging down, or fresh buying as the price moves [4]. - For LG, strategies range from selling on listing to holding for longer-term gains—with common notes like “Initial profits up to 30% then dip” shaping thinking [5]. - In Tata Capital chatter, allotment results are shared (e.g., 46 shares allotted in some cases), with investors planning their next moves around listing-day GMP and post-listing dip expectations [6].
Retail investors will keep weighing hold-versus-sell decisions as IPOs like LG Electronics and Tata Capital unfold in 2025.
