What's Next

Allotment date: 2026-09-03 Listing date: 2026-09-07 Basis of allotment will be determined based on final subscription multiples.

Will the late entry of QIBs on Day 1 signal strong institutional confidence leading to oversubscription, or does it indicate hesitation regarding the company's lack of long-term customer contracts?

How might the significant capital expenditure for the new Bavla facility impact Shanti Inorganics' debt-to-equity ratio and short-term profitability once the IPO proceeds are utilized?

Given that the top 10 customers contribute over 71% of revenue, what specific strategies will management employ to diversify its client base post-listing to mitigate concentration risk?
