"India wants more startup IPOs. But do Indian startups really want to go public?" The Startup Policy Forum (SPF) just launched the Centre for New-age Public Companies, a first-of-its-kind initiative to help Indian startups prepare for the public markets. Their focus: Governance Profitability Financial transparency Exit-readiness The goal is clear: reverse the trend of overhyped IPOs and low investor trust post-listing. But hereā€™s the friction: Fewer than 10 Indian tech startups have IPOā€™d in the last 5 years. Most of them ā€” from Paytm to Zomato ā€” saw valuations shrink post-listing. Founders are now raising later-stage private rounds or moving offshore instead. So the question is: Is India ready for a serious startup IPO pipeline? Or are public markets still too risk-averse for innovation-led businesses? For founders ā€” this might be your signal to clean your cap table. For investors ā€” this might change how you define exits going forward. Would love to hear your views. Will this initiative bridge the gap ā€” or just widen it? #StartupIndia #IPOMarket #Build3 #FounderExits #VentureCapital #IndianStartups #Governance #Transparency #StartupPolicyForum
