What Is an IPO Tracker?
An IPO tracker is a tool that records everything about your IPO investments in one place: which IPOs you applied to, how much capital you put toward each one, whether you were allotted shares, and what you actually made or lost once you sold. For anyone applying to more than the occasional IPO, a spreadsheet stops being enough fairly quickly — dates, lot sizes, partial allotments, refunds, and sale charges add up across every demat account you use.
Why a Spreadsheet Falls Apart
A single IPO application already has several moving parts: the applied price, lot size, application amount, and a status that changes over time (applied → allotment pending → allotted, partially allotted, not allotted, or cancelled). Multiply that across several IPOs, several demat accounts — your own plus any family members' you apply through — and the bookkeeping compounds fast. Most people either give up tracking accurately or spend real time reconciling numbers by hand.
What IPO Tracker Actually Does
IPO Tracker replaces that spreadsheet with four connected pieces:
- Application tracking — log every application against the specific demat account it was made from, with lot size and applied price calculated automatically.
- Allotment & refund tracking — record the allotment outcome for each application; refunds and released capital are calculated from that automatically, not entered separately.
- P&L and ROI tracking — once shares are sold, realized profit is calculated after brokerage and other charges; unrealized profit updates against the current price for shares you're still holding.
- Capital tracking — see how much of your total capital is currently blocked in pending applications, invested in held shares, or actually free to apply with right now.
