Step 2: Confirm your number by selecting ‘Yes, proceed’ or if you wish to change your number click ‘No, change no.’
Step 3: Now verify by entering the 6-digit OTP sent to your number
Step 4: We will now send details of the latest IPOs. Select the IPO which you want to pre-apply/apply to from the list
Step 5: Now, to proceed, select ‘Apply now’ and if you wish to see other IPOs select ‘View other IPO’
Step 6: You’ll now be asked to enter the price at which you want to place your bid. We recommend bidding at the cut-off price as any bids lower than the cut-off price are unlikely to get an allotment if the IPO is oversubscribed
