What to watch
- QIB subscription reaching or failing to reach full subscription by close.
- Final overall subscription materially above the reported 0.24x-0.28x early reading.
- Any IPO price-band, allocation, or bidding-period update that resolves the reported subscription-data discrepancy.
- Anchor-book quality and concentration among long-only domestic or global institutions.
- Post-listing unit-sales growth, gross-margin trajectory, cash burn, and market-share movement in electric scooters.
- Track final-day QIB, HNI/NII, and employee-category subscription rather than retail demand alone.
- Compare final subscription mix and implied valuation with Ola Electric and other Indian EV/auto listings.
- Assess use-of-proceeds execution, including manufacturing capacity, R&D, debt reduction, and retail/service-network expansion.
- Monitor grey-market premium and anchor-investor participation as directional, non-fundamental indicators of listing expectations.
