IPO Application Tracker
Every IPO application has the same handful of facts attached to it: which IPO, which demat account, the applied price, the lot size, and the resulting application amount. Tracking that accurately — especially once you're applying through more than one demat account — is the first thing an IPO application tracker needs to get right.
What Tracking an Application Actually Involves
An application moves through a small set of states from the day you submit it to the day it's resolved: Applied, then Allotment Pending while it's waiting on the registrar, and finally one of Allotted, Partially Allotted, Not Allotted, or Cancelled. Until it resolves, the applied amount is money that's blocked — not spent, but not available either. Getting a clear picture of how much capital is currently tied up like this, across every account, is exactly what a spreadsheet struggles to keep current.
Tracking Multiple Demat Accounts
Many retail investors don't apply through a single account — they use their own, plus accounts for family members, to increase their odds of allotment across a family group. That means the same IPO can have several separate applications against it, each with its own lot size and outcome. A proper application tracker needs to keep those distinct while still letting you see everything together: total capital applied, total currently blocked, and how each account is performing.
How IPO Tracker Handles This
In IPO Tracker, every application is recorded against a specific demat account, and you can apply directly from the IPO catalog — the applied price and lot size are pulled in automatically so there's nothing to re-type. Once an application resolves, it feeds straight into allotment and refund tracking, and if shares are allotted, into P&L tracking once you hold or sell them.
