Fundraising through mainboard IPOs, SME IPOs and QIPs rose to a 20-month high in July despite geopolitical tensions and continued foreign investor outflows. Around 36 companies raised ₹52,300 crore, the highest monthly total since November 2024, when 24 companies had raised around ₹56,737 crore. So far in 2026, 167 companies have mobilised ₹1.06 lakh crore through these fundraising routes.
