Excellent...mazaa aa raha hain. I hope Chota Ambani comes up with his IPOs now and it would be interesting to see what's in store for him.

Kotak would be the most affected but it would be an oppurtunity to invest in the stock.

i dont think it would affect him - somehow he and his operator friends will ensure its goes up on listing(not to mention the huge oversubscription due
to the "reliance" brand name).

One point of view in many books(even in Lynch's) talks about the waxing and waning of IPO interest as a very good indicator of the kind of market that we are in. Just like how unbeleivable valuations are lapped up without any question being asked and huge over subscriptions seen during bull phases, when IPOs start getting cancelled and price bands lowered, we must take note of it - that is a very clear sign of how bearish the mood is, and things can probably only get worse from here on, before it gets better.
