If IPO price almost always tends to go up, why do most people only buy 10 shares?

Im sorry if this might be a dumb question, as I’m pretty new in stock market. But I’ve seen most people only invest for 10 shares? Is there a reason? I mean it sounds pretty convinent, you invest more, you earn more.

  1. IPO is allocated as fixed 10 units per person. Even if you apply 100, you will receive only 10 if its alloted or 0 if not since the applied will be greater than the issued unit.

  2. 10 ota is the limit for most of the IPOs tyai bhayera ho. Kunai IPO ma chai public gareko share nai ekdam dherai bhayera chai 10 bhanda badhi parxa. Example: NIFRA ko IPO ma I guess 60 kitta thiyo.

  3. parne vayeta varinthyo ni. pardaina. 10 kitta ta balla balla aajkaal premium ma aayera pauna suru vayo. natra 2 – 3 years vayo IPO pareko. 4 jana family ko. Kahile parena la Sahas ra arko duita kawadi hydro chodera.

  4. Answer to the question: look at everyone else’s answer. Then what do you do if you really think it will go up?

    You can buy more after the IPO in the secondary market.

  5. Technically you can apply for all the shares the company has announced. But, the thing is IPOs are so oversubscribed, 15-20% of the applicants get 10 units each. The rest are returned empty handed.
