Primary Market

Stock Market generally divided into two segments
Primary market and Secondary market.

The primary market is the market in which investors have the first opportunity to buy a newly issued security.The primary market is not a physical place, it is merely refers to a situation where the action is not among investors inter-se but is between a company and the investors.Eg. Initial Public Offer (IPO), it includes right issue.
When a company needs an extremely large capital to run its business operations it cannot fund it all by itself.Hence it needs shareholders, which can be achieved only through primary market.
