What does this subscription data mean?

IPO subscription data tells you how much demand exists for the shares being offered, broken down by investor category. Understanding each category helps you gauge the real sentiment behind the numbers:

  • 01 QIB (Qualified Institutional Buyers) — includes mutual funds, FIIs, insurance companies, and banks. QIBs do deep due diligence before bidding. A QIB subscription above 10x is a strong institutional endorsement. Watch QIB numbers closely on the final day — they often hold back and flood in after 3 PM.
  • 02 NII / HNI (Non-Institutional Investors) — high-net-worth individuals bidding above ₹2 lakh. NII allotment is proportionate (not lottery), so higher NII subscription means smaller per-lot allotment. Big HNI (B-HNI) bids above ₹10 lakh; Small HNI (S-HNI) bids ₹2–10 lakh.
  • 03 Retail — individual investors bidding up to ₹2 lakh. When retail is below 1x, everyone who applied gets full allotment. When oversubscribed, SEBI mandates a computerised lottery — only 1 lot per successful applicant regardless of how many lots you apply for.
  • 04 Overall Subscription — a blended multiple across all categories. A total subscription above 10x is considered strong; above 50x is exceptional and usually predicts strong listing gains.
