Remember that the two most important factors in assessing your chances of getting allotment is the overall quota allocation in the IPO and extent of oversubscription in the IPO. Normally, higher the oversubscription in the IPO, the lower are your chances of getting an allotment. Let us first look at the overall quota allocation and then at the extent of oversubscription that the IPO of Arvind and Company Shipping Agencies Ltd received.
Why the IPO quotas matter to the basis of allotment?
Your chances of allotment depend on the number of shares allotted to the quota. Typically, it is the retail and HNI quota that is of relevance here. The table below captures the individual quotas allocate for retail investors and for HNI / NII investors.
Investor Category | Shares Offered |
Anchor Investor Shares Offered | Nil Shares |
Market Maker Shares Offered | 1,68,000 (5.13%) |
Other Shares Offered | 15,54,000 (47.44%) |
Retail Shares Offered | 15,54,000 (47.44%) |
Total Shares Offered | 32,76,000 (100.00%) |
It is a relatively small sized issue with a limited quota of shares available for retail and for the HNI / NII investors. Hence, it would be dependent on how much the issue gets subscribed. But, prima facie, the quota allocated is quite low, so the investors will start of on the chance of allocation with a disadvantage.
What do the subscriptions mean for basis of allotment?
The response to the IPO of Arvind and Company Shipping Agencies Ltd was very strong as the overall issue was subscribed 385.03X at the close of bidding on 16th October 2023. That is impressively higher than the median subscription that the NSE SME IPOs have been getting in general. Out of the overall bids received, the retail segment saw 21.27 times subscription and the non-retail HNI / NII portion saw 95.16 times subscription. The QIB portion was subscribed 42.74 times. The table below captures the overall allocation of shares with the oversubscription details as of the close of the IPO on 16th October 2023.
Investor Category |
Subscription (times) |
Shares Offered |
Shares bid for |
Total Amount (₹ in crore) |
Market Maker | 1 | 1,68,000 | 1,68,000 | 0.76 |
HNI / NIIs | 436.05 | 15,54,000 | 67,76,19,000 | 3,049.29 |
Retail Investors | 321.97 | 15,54,000 | 50,03,40,000 | 2,251.53 |
Total | 385.03 | 31,08,000 | 1,19,66,79,000 | 5,385.06 |
Total Applications: | 166,780 (321.97 times) |
The subscription to the IPO is extremely robust and that sharply reduces the chances of your getting the allotment in the IPO. However, you would have for the basis of allotment to be finalized before checking the status.
