​1. The Hydropower Wave

​Hydropower continues to dominate the NEPSE. Key names to watch:

  • ​Samyukta Urja Limited: Approved for 4.16 million units.
  • ​Kabeli Hydropower: Set to issue 4.12 million units.
  • ​Electro Power Company: A massive issue of 8.12 million units managed by NIMB Ace Capital.
  • ​Solu Hydropower: This is one of the "big ones" with a total issue of 100 million units (including locals).

​2. Hotel & Tourism Sector

​With tourism rebounding, hotel IPOs are becoming "hot" stocks:

  • ​Hotel Park Land Limited: 1.5 million units.
  • ​Hotel Ichchha Limited: 3.5 million units.
  • ​Varnabas Museum Hotel: Recently increased their issue size to 36% of their capital—watch this for a premium feel.

​3. Manufacturing & Real Sector

​These are often more stable than hydro and are highly sought after:

  • ​Hulas Iron Industries: A massive 9.75 million units coming to the market.
  • ​Asian Batteries Limited: 1.3 million units.
  • ​SY Panel Nepal: Approved for 13 million units.

Viral Strategy: How to Increase Your Allotment Chance?

​Since most IPOs in Nepal are oversubscribed by 10–20 times, getting an allotment is mostly luck. However, follow these "Viral Tips":

  1. ​Apply via Multiple Family Accounts: The "10 Kitta" rule means you have a better chance if you apply from 5 family members' accounts rather than putting all your money into one.
  2. ​Watch the Credit Rating: Always check the ICRA Nepal or Care Ratings Nepal score. A rating of [ICRANP-IR] BBB or higher usually indicates a safer company.
  3. ​Don't ignore the "Locals" Quota: If you are from the project-affected area (especially for Hydros), your chances of getting hundreds of units are much higher.

​Top 3 IPOs to Watch in 2026

  1. ​Palpa Cements: Because it’s a "Real Sector" company, it might offer better long-term dividends compared to small hydro projects.
  2. ​Shreenagar Agritech: Agriculture-based IPOs are rare in NEPSE. This could be a "multi-bagger" due to its unique sector positioning.
  3. ​Salapa Bikas Bank: For those waiting for a banking sector entry, this development bank IPO will be highly competitive.
