In simple words if anyone applies in an IPO using their bank account but the Demat account is of another person (family/friends/relative) then the process is called 3rd party IPO application.
To subscribe to an IPO via UPI, UPI ID and Demat account must belong to the same person; third-party payment is not acceptable. Thus, it is only allowed when you are applying to an IPO via ASBA net banking process.
There are some banks such as SBI, Axis, and RBL that allow third-party IPO application via ASBA facility. Suppose, if a person invests in an IPO using his/her own bank account but the Demat account belongs to a different person, say B, it's called Third party ASBA application. However, leading Indian banks like ICICI, HDFC, etc. does not allow third-party payment for IPO application.
Note: Banks no more accept 3rd-party ASBA IPO application through ASBA with effect from 1st May 2022.
As per new guidelines also 3rd party ASBA is not allowed, but still, we have seen some examples where investors are getting allotment in 3rd part applications.
