What to watch
- Overall subscription exceeding 1x before close
- Qualified institutional buyer subscription acceleration on the final bidding day
- Non-institutional investor demand above the retail-led base
- Any revision to the reported 0.24x-0.28x aggregate subscription figure
- Grey-market premium moving materially higher or turning negative
- IPO price-band revision, extension, or changes in anchor allocation
- Reconcile official exchange subscription data versus media-reported aggregate demand.
- Track final-day qualified institutional buyer, non-institutional investor and employee-category subscription separately.
- Assess whether the price band is sustained without downward revisions or heavy anchor-led support.
- Monitor grey-market premium and post-listing liquidity indicators as a read-through on listing-demand durability.
- Compare valuation and demand with recent Indian EV, mobility and consumer-technology listings.
