SEBI’s New Rule: Mutual Funds Must Say Goodbye to Pre-IPO Deals The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has recently stepped in to bring a meaningful change in the way mutual funds invest in the IPO space. From now on, mutual funds can no longer chase the lucrative pre-IPO placements—those early bird shares offered before a company officially goes public. Why does this matter? Pre-IPO investments often come with a catch: if the IPO gets delayed or canceled, mutual funds could be stuck holding unlisted shares that are illiquid and hard to value. That’s a big risk for fund investors who expect transparency and the ability to redeem their investments at any time. SEBI’s new directive ensures mutual funds stick to investing in the anchor investor portion or the public issue, keeping these investments liquid and properly valued. This move aligns with the regulator’s mandate to protect retail investors and maintain trust in mutual fund products.
