18 newly listed stocks face anchor lock-in expiry in October 2026

Lock-in dates run from Oct. 5 to Oct. 16, 2026, covering 14 companies with 30-day expiries and four with 90-day expiries, according to a PL Research review.

An October 2026 IPO schedule will bring anchor lock-in expiries for shares in 18 companies, making those allotments eligible for trading during the month, according to LiveMint Markets citing a fortnightly review by PL Research.

The lock-in expiry window runs between October 5 and October 16, 2026, with 14 companies facing 30-day expiries and four companies facing 90-day expiries, the review said.

LiveMint Markets noted that anchor investors typically receive shares before an IPO opens to the broader public, but the shares remain locked for a set period before becoming eligible for trading.

Among the 14 companies approaching the 30-day lock-in expiry, Purple Style Labs and Manipal Payment & Identity Solutions have the highest proportion of shares becoming eligible, at around 22% of their respective total shares, the report added.
