What is the difference between primary market and secondary market?

[Shantanu]

Primary market is a place where one can market his/her company in public in order to collect funds(IPO). They can call people for public meetings, presentation etc. and through this, get the public to invest in their company. Secondary market is nothing but stock market where people can trade the shares of company.

Primary market is where the company directly sells its shares to the people in order to raise capital through IPO.

Secondary market is where the shares are traded between individuals (i.e) buyer and seller. In this market, Brokers will be there to execute deals between buyer and seller..

primary market is the place where the public gets opportunity to buy and sell at one place for the commodity.  seller demands for money and buyer if interested will buy.  it is between buyer and seller and contract is fullfilled.

secondary market is nothing but stock market where buyer and seller do not deal directly but do it online.  brokers may also take part in that.  whatever amount is given by buyer can expect the money to get refunded.  the forms are filled online in form of shares to trade.
