How to apply for IPO using UPI - Check limit, steps and other details
Once you apply for an IPO, the application amount is blocked in your account until the allotment date.
UPI (Unified Payments Interface) is widely used to transfer money on a daily basis. Whether paying bills or sending money, UPI is very beneficial for all of us. Now, UPI can be used by traders to buy IPO. Now, the Security Exchange Board of Directors (SEBI) has made mandatory UPI for all the applications through registered stockbrokers, RTA’s (Registrar and transfer agents), and DPS (depository participants). Trades can apply for an IPO through UPI.
Once you apply for an IPO, the application amount is blocked in your account until the allotment date. If the IPO is allotted to you, the money gets deducted from your account, and the shares get transferred to your Demat account. However, if you do not get the IPO, the blocked money is released by the bank. It is advised by SEBI to have a Demat account before applying for an IPO.
