  • Negative Operating Cash Flows: The company incurred negative cash flows from operating activities of ₹(1,087.37) lakhs in FY 2026 due to increases in trade receivables and inventories.
  • High Trade Receivables Risk: Trade receivables grew at 224.67% compared to revenue growth of 108% in FY 2025, exposing the company to credit risk.

The IPO closed on 2026-08-19. Allotment status will be updated shortly after the basis of allotment is finalized. Investors can check the allotment status on the registrar's website or through their broker platforms. Listing dates will be announced post-allotment.

Will the heavy QIB oversubscription lead to a price revision above the current upper band of ₹151, or will the issue close at the existing cap?

How might the company's negative operating cash flows and high trade receivables impact its post-IPO liquidity and dividend potential?

Given that the top ten customers account for nearly 73% of sales, what strategies does Fascinate Textiles have to mitigate concentration risk in its client base?
