Key facts

What to watch
- QIB subscription accelerating above 1x before the final day.
- Total book crossing 1x without disproportionate retail dependence.
- A sustained rise or decline in the grey-market premium.
- Broad equity-market volatility or risk-off moves affecting new-issue demand.
- Changes in disclosed anchor-investor quality or allocation concentration.
- Monitor daily category-wise subscription, especially QIB and non-institutional investor participation in the final two bidding sessions.
- Assess grey-market premium and secondary-market conditions for indications of likely listing appetite.
- Compare implied valuation with listed logistics, e-commerce-enablement, and technology-platform peers.
- Watch for management commentary on profitability path, Amazon/customer concentration, freight volumes, and expansion spending.
