P.S. In some IPOs where there is more than one eligible category to apply, you can make multiple applications - read more.
@ShubhS9@mohitmehra What if the reserved shares for each category is not subscribed more than 1 time(s)?
For example below Anthony Waste got subscribed only 0.28 times in Non Institutional Investors Category. Does it mean 100% allotment for everyone who subscribed under that category?
In case of under-subscription, if any, in any category, except in the QIB Portion, would be allowed to be met with spill over from any other category or combination of categories of Bidders, in consultation with the BRLMs and the Designated Stock Exchange subject to receipt of valid Bids received at or above the Offer Price.
In case if there is under-subscription, in the QIB Portion, would not be allowed to be met with spill-over from any other category or a combination of categories.
Yes, those who have bid will receive 100% allotment.
You have received a UPI-Mandate request from INDIAN RAILWAY FINAN for Rs 14375.00. Login to your UPI app and authorize the block. Application No. IRFCAZ257047142839
I could see that the IRFC Non Institutional Investors Category has been under subscribed as of today 0.24 times (19th Jan)
Is it possible to get full allotment if NII was under subscribed even tomorrow. i.e. 0.99 times
If yes, I have already applied under RII category, the amount has been blocked after successful mandate. Will they consider my application if I delete my bid and reapply in NII category? Or will it be considered as duplicate entry.
