Those who buy IPOs are your large institutional investors, meaning those with "big bucks." And even those people get around 100 shares if they're lucky, so unless you're one of them, you won't be able to participate.
And they don't hold them for long, but rather take a quick 1/8 or a 1/4 point rise, and then get out. And many institutional investors simply buy every single IPO, making money on some, loosing on others.
However, it's possible for you to buy in the open market after it goes public and begins general trading. For example, I bought Starbucks when it first came out years ago and it's risen quite a bit since.

if u have an on line broker account, chk with ur broker, if he is offering on line ipo applications. ICICI offers it.
Else u will have to get the normal application, and fill it up and submit at ur nearest collection center.

Do you have at least $1,000,000.00 USD to buy one of them?
