What to watch
- Final subscription multiple and category split on issue close.
- QIB demand materially above or below 1x.
- Retail subscription acceleration in the final hours of bidding.
- Grey-market premium turning negative or widening before allotment.
- IPO pricing, allotment, and listing-day performance versus issue price.
- Post-listing disclosures on losses, cash burn, delivery volumes, and gross-margin trajectory.
- Monitor final-day category-wise bids, especially QIB and NII participation rather than the aggregate subscription figure.
- Track grey-market premium, unofficial price indications, and any changes in broker recommendations for listing-gain expectations.
- Watch management communication on path to profitability, market-share defense, battery costs, and dealership expansion.
- Compare the IPO valuation and demand with listed two-wheeler and EV peers; weak reception may pressure sector multiples.
- Prepare for promotional or financing actions by Ather and rivals if public-market scrutiny increases pressure to demonstrate unit economics.
