N2  - This study investigates the determinants of going public decision of the Indian firms juxtaposing two related research issues: What ex-ante characterstics of going public Indain firms differentiate them from those Indian firms that continue to remain private? What ex-post consequences of IPOs on firm characterstics influence their going public decision? The analysis suggests that Indian firms go public to finance their growth, diversify owners' risk, rebalance their capital structure and bring down their borrowing rates
