The under-pricing of Initial Public Offerings (IPO) speaks to one of the inconsistencies seen in essential markets (primary market) worldwide, however, the profundity and broadness of its shift from nation to nation. In this context, the study is a posteriori analysis of the short-run performance of Indian IPOs in the National Stock Exchange (NSE). The study aims to determine the relationship between the returns of IPOs and NIFTY50 (benchmark index) using correlation and regression analysis. To determine the performance of the IPOs, whether they are outperforming or underperforming using Wealth Relative Model. As the investors look for attractive returns through primary market opportunities, therefore, historical returns of trading days 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 are taken into consideration. The study uses data of 114 Indian IPOs that were listed in the NSE during the period 2014–2018 as part of secondary data, however, a total of 71 under-priced IPOs listed in the NSE are utilized for analysis. The study concludes there is a significant under-pricing of IPOs with trading day 15th showing the highest initial returns.
