for Pre-IPO,
if your PF is below 2 Cr, i will not advise it. this is more riskier due to many factors which is not under your control.
start with mainboard companies, migrate to SME once you get some handle on risk and pf grows.
what can go wrong - 1. Delay in IPO
........
1/n
2. Valuation stays same for longer period 3. Promoter dilutes more and more 4. Company doesnt meet its projected numbers 5. U cant trade or exit as no buyers 6. no price transparency 7. U pay higher tax if u sell unlisted shares 8. U pay higher price / commission to brokers
2/n
those who followed me from beginning have seen my journey. I didnt start with Pre-IPOs. I started with mainboard, with single lots in SME & slowly grown
i have seen all of these above issues and cite examples if i want to for each point.
Someone asked me what he should do option 1) keep the funds for IPO applications 2) repay the home loan.
I told him to go for OD Home loan account. I am using SBI Max Gain Home Loan which allows me to withdraw the money for IPO as and when i need it and ........
1/2
I pay interest on amount i take out. when i dont need it, i keep my surplus cash there and i dont pay interest on that much amount.
for e.g. u have taken 10 lakh home loan and u have 5 lakhs in savings. put that in OD Home loan and u will pay interest on remainig 5 L only
2/3
This is one time hassle to convert and u can ask your existing home loan bank if they have this facility. this way it can help you in emergency cash
