Earlier applying for an IPO was a cumbersome process. Either one had to fill the physical form and then submit the same to the broker or filing the IPO form using the Net Bank feature of the banks.
Now a SAMCO client can apply for an IPO online using the SAMCO portal in less than a minute. Along with the SAMCO account, all one needs is one of the UPI 2.0 enabled Apps in their mobile phone.

4. Click on “Apply” to initiate your IPO Bidding Process.
5. On the next screen, you will see the bid entry window. The minimum lot size and the cut-off price would be selected by default. You can change the bid quantity in multiples of the Lot Size and enter the price between the minimum and maximum price.

Next, enter the VPA (Virtual Payment Address) / UPI ID from the given list. Please use your own personal UPI ID else the application will get rejected.

5. Now tick the Checkbox to accept the declaration and Press the Submit button to proceed with your application.
