What to watch
- Retail subscription crossing 1x before the final day.

- A sustained rise or decline in the gray-market premium.
- IPO price-band valuation versus listed two-wheeler and EV peers.
- Evidence of slowing EV two-wheeler registrations, discounting or intensified competitive pricing.
- Track daily retail, QIB and NII subscription data, especially final-day acceleration.
- Watch gray-market premium trends and any changes in market sentiment toward Indian EV and new-age listings.
- Assess management commentary on use of proceeds, dealer/store rollout, charging network investment and path toward profitability.
- Monitor rival actions from Ola Electric, TVS, Bajaj and Hero MotoCorp for pricing, incentives and new model launches.
