Technically speaking, any adult who is competent to enter into a legal contract is eligible to apply in the IPO of a company. Of course, it is essential that you have a PAN card issued by the Income Tax department and you also have a valid demat account.Remember, having a trading account is not necessary in case of IPOs, a demat account alone is sufficient. However, if you want to sell the shares on listing then trading account will be required. That is why brokers will advise you to open a trading account along with demat account when you apply for an IPO for the first time. An important point to be remembered here! When you apply for an IPO, it is not an offer but an invitation to offer. Only when the IPO issuer offers you shares, it amounts to an offer.

One can squeeze only so much from a small piece of land.There is, how- ever, a field in which grown-ups let their fantasies fly—in trading. A former employee told me that he planned to support himself trading a $6,000 account. When I tried to show him the futility of his plan, he quickly changed the topic. He was a bright analyst, but refused to see that his “intensive farming” plan was suicidal. In his desperate effort to succeed, he’d have to take on large positions—and the slightest wiggle of the market will quickly put him out of business. A successful trader is a realist. He knows his abilities and limitations. He sees what’s happening in the markets and knows how to react. He analyzes the markets without cutting corners, observes himself, and makes realistic plans.
