ABSTRACT


This essay critically examines the regulatory and legal dimensions of India’s ongoing IPO surge in light of the SEBI (ICDR) Amendments, 2025. It explores how the revised framework seeks to enhance market transparency, streamline compliance, and safeguard investor interests amid a rapidly expanding capital market. Key changes, ranging from promoter lock-in rules and financial disclosure norms to ESOP treatment and compliance officer qualifications, are analysed for their practical implications on issuers and investors. The essay further evaluates the interplay between the ICDR Regulations, the Companies Act, 2013, and the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, positioning the amendments as part of SEBI’s broader effort to modernise India’s capital markets while maintaining regulatory rigour and market integrity.
