The Initial Public Offering, or IPO, of financial services provider Paytm has recently concluded and the share allotment process is already done. Paytm IPO, organised by its parent company One97 Communications, received a brisk response from investors. The Paytm IPO was subscribed 1.89 as of its final day of bidding, accroding to data from stock exchange. However, on Tuesday, November 16, Paytm shares had dried up in the grey market, days ahead of its listing on Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE). This was not a good sign for the company, which has floated India’s biggest public offer of Rs 18,300 crore.
One97 communications, the parent company of Paytm, has received bids for 9.14 crore shares against 4.83 crore shares offered for sale. This has been largely done on support from qualified institutional buyers, who have oversubscribed the IPO since its opening day. QIBs subscribed 2.79 times the portion reserved for them, while retail buyers bid 1.66 times the part set aside for them. Non-institutional buyers have booked 24 per cent of the shares kept aside for them.
