Earlier in the same conference, it was intimated that the SEBI may pilot a pre-IPO trading platform where companies can trade with required disclosures, Pandey said.
"The IPO market is booming, but pre-listing information is often insufficient for investors," Pandey said at the FICCI Capital Market Conference 2025.
