Hi,

Found this article very informative. I have a question regarding oversubscription of IPOs. If an IPO gets subscribed say 10 times over, does this mean that I will not be alloted any shares for this IPO ? Is there any way of calculating whether one gets shares alloted depending upon the number of time an IPO gets subscribed ??

thanks !

Dear Bullish India,
Your methodology is excellent and has a very clear reasoning behind it. I would like to ask u a question. I had applied for Kouton IPO however the cheque bounced back as the money got transferred into the account after the cheque was dishonoured. In such a case what should I do.

@Anup – Thanks for your kind words. You are right. If the majority of the investors start following this method SEBI will have to step in. Even in the case of IT People FPO, the same thing happened. Lots of investors gave stop payment and market grapevine has it that from a subscription of 0.97 at IPO closing day, the subscription fell below 0.90 (cut off) because many people gave stop payment. Hence the IT People FPO had to be withdrawn.

@kumar – I can’t remember any IPO where the institutional investor category has been oversubscribed by more than 5 times and people made losses by selling on the listing date.

Two points are important here
1) Institutional investor category should be oversubscribed by more than 5 times atleast (higher the better)
2) This applies only for people looking for listing gains. (Should sell of at market open on the date of listing of the IPO)

Fundamental analysis is more for making long term investment decisions. Supply / Demand and market sentiments at the time of listing have much more impact in determining the IPO listing gains rather than fundamental strenghts / weakness of the company going public.

My 2 cents
Cheers

Reg tip 1

you say ,apply if institutional category is oversubscribed ,it does not work always , there are some cases ,where people made loss …akruthi nirman is one such ipo …..
why ,even some real estate cos too
so ,you cannot generalise like that .
they will try to fool all here
moreover not all FIIS are genuine ,promoters too route such investments via subaccounts

so ,better rely on fundamentals only .dont look at the FII or HNI subscription .it will mislead sometimes ………

cheers

@ Bullish,

Excellent tips.I added it to my favourite webpages.

Me and some friends had been doing this practice of stopping payment for ipo’s which get oversubscribed by more than 60 times after our broker recommended it to us. I guess if too many people start doing it, SEBI will do something about it.Meanwhile lets make hay while the sun shines Anyways i appreciate your willingness to give out this information to people. Hats off to you.
