Public offers of shares are made by Indian corporates from
time to time. Many such issues represent opportunities for
good long term investments.
 

Investors should, however, be selective and invest only in
companies that have good credentials. Most public issues
come with a portion reserved for NRIs on repatriation basis.
As the issuing company would have obtained a general
RBI permission for the issue, NRIs need not have
individual RBI permission for subscribing to public offers.
In most cases, a depository account is necessary for being
able to apply to public offers. If you wish to be kept
informed of public share offers, you may ask Barjeel-Geojit
to include you in their mailing list.
