*Data till as on Nov 18th for 2024 - 2025

India has seen a surge in IPOs over the last two years — but do you know who actually designs, structures, and executes these public issues?
It’s not the promoters.

Who is a Merchant Banker?
A Merchant Banker is a SEBI-regulated financial institution responsible for managing IPOs, valuations, due diligence, fundraising, and capital-market transactions. They ensure that companies meet regulatory norms, structure the offer correctly, and reach the right investors with confidence. 

Merchant Banker Categories (SEBI)
Category I: Can manage IPOs, FPOs, Rights Issues, Buybacks, Takeovers, Delisting, and provide full-fledged advisory.
Category II: Can act as advisors, consultants, and co-managers (limited functions).
Category III / IV: Offer restricted services like underwriting or portfolio management.

In short, Category-I is the highest level, the one responsible for executing complete IPOs end-to-end.

Valmiki Leela Capital has received its SEBI Category-I Merchant Banker license. The firm operates from Ahmedabad and Mumbai and offers a full suite of capital-market and advisory services.
