Banks gear up for new IPO payment facility

Eleven banks participated in the mock test carried out by the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) for the new IPO payment facility recently permitted by SEBI.



The first IPO in which the facility will be used is that of 20 Microns, which opens on Monday.



This facility, called the Application Supported by Blocked Amounts (ASBA), allows banks to block IPO application money in the applicant’s bank account till the time of allotment of shares. Only that amount proportionate to the share allotment will be transferred from the account.



The markets regulator has said that ASBA will be operationalised from Monday. . This coincides with the opening of the IPO of 20 Microns, the first issue in which the ASBA process will be used by investors.



Interface tested



“BSE has successfully tested its interface with 11 banks for participation in the ASBA (Application Supported by Blocked Amounts) process,” said a BSE news release.



The 11 banks that participated in the mock test were Bank of Baroda, Corporation Bank, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, IDBI Bank, Indus Ind Bank, Kotak Bank, Punjab National Bank, State Bank of India, SBBJ and Union Bank.



The exchange is in the process of testing the interface with other banks that have evinced interest in participating in the ASBA process, BSE said. Using this interface, the banks participating in the IPO process would be able to upload the bids with respect to their customers, into the electronic book of the BSE,

Personal Finance: How to move through Stock Market tough times!

If you have lost money, then have a hard look at your holdings. It is time to be patient ULTIMATELY, you cannot really lose money in the stock market! If you have, then either you have not been in the stock market long enough or you are in the process of getting the most expensive education. In the last 15 years, I have portfolios earning about Rs 5 lakh from share dividends alone against others who started with Rs 5 lakh and today owe the broker about Rs 3 lakh. When the markets, Sensex moved from 4,000 to 7,000 points, people thought it was a bubble and many sold out by the time it reached 12,000 points. A huge majority lost the run from 9k to 16k. Seeing their folly, many entered around 17-18k levels and in two months, saw their portfolios doubling. Greed peaked, speculation peaked and the fall shattered millions of dreams. Is there someone sitting on profits today? The answer is a resounding yes! Here are examples. HDFC was quoting at Rs 300 in 1999 and touched about Rs 3,000 earl...
