In 2026, more than half of the companies that went public in India are now worth more than the price they sold for.

This is better than last year, when only a little over half did.

The market is still shaky because of world politics, but investors are being careful.

Fewer foreign investors are buying shares, and local investors are paying more attention.

Experts think this means the companies are priced fairly and will keep doing well.
