What does IPO issue size mean?

IPO issue size refers to the overall value of shares offered to the public. It is calculated based on the number of shares offered and the price per share, covering both fresh issue and offer for sale portions.

It includes:

  • Fresh Issue – New shares issued by a company

  • Offer for Sale (OFS) – Existing shareholders (like promoters or investors) selling their shares. The company doesn't receive money from this portion.

Example: If a company offers:

  • Fresh issue: ₹400 crore

  • Offer for Sale (OFS): ₹100 crore

Total IPO issue size = ₹500 crore.
