Before an initial public offering (IPO) can be opened, a company goes through the filing of numerous documents with the market regulator Sebi. One such would be a Red Hering prospectus, which is an offering document or preliminary prospectus that a company submits to Sebi to raise money by publicly offering shares on stock exchanges.

IPOs are either a new issue of shares or an offer to sell (OFS) or a combination of both. A company’s first step is to create a draft document detailing the IPO, which is then submitted to Sebi. The companies then change changes when directed by the market regulator. And once everything is in place, companies file an RHP just days before launching an IPO.
