Initial Public Offering or IPO is the action by which unlisted companies mark their debut on the stock markets. This is the time when a company decides to raise money from the public through the stock exchanges. Many investors aim to buy shares of fairly valued companies during their IPOs.  

The primary source of information in such a process is the DRHP or the Draft Red Herring Prospectus – a document which the company prepares detailing its financial position, day to day operations, risks and strengths and many more things that an investor may wish to know.
