Listing Date

The listing date is the day a company's shares become available for trading on a stock exchange, marking its entry into the secondary market. It signifies the beginning of the company’s journey as a publicly traded entity. From this date, investors can buy and sell the company’s shares, and its stock starts to be actively traded. The listing date is an important milestone for both the company and its investors, as it reflects the transition from a private entity to one that is publicly traded and subject to market dynamics.
