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.
How might the heavy reliance on QIB subscription (22.74x) versus weak NII interest impact the stock's listing price and initial volatility?
Given the negative operating cash flows in FY 2026, will the working capital raised from the IPO be sufficient to stabilize liquidity before the new manufacturing facility generates revenue?
What is the company's strategy to mitigate the risk of losing key customers, given that the top ten clients account for nearly 73% of total sales?
