The subscriptions were led by the retail investors followed by the HNI / NII investors and then by the QIB investors in that order. The QIB quota and the NII / HNI will typically gather most of the momentum on the last day, and that would be the case in this issue also in the case of the HNI / NII bids and the QIB bids. The NII bids pick up momentum on the last day since that is when the bulk HNI funding bids, corporate bids and the large HNI bids come in. Even the institutional bids come in on the last day in the first half. Here are the details of the category-wise subscription. The overall subscription ratio calculation excludes anchor portion and also the market making portion in the IPO.

The QIB and the HNI / NII categories see the best momentum coming only on the last and final day of the IPO, while the retail investors predominate on the first two days of the IPO. The market maker portion and anchor quota are excluded for the purpose of calculating the number of times subscription to get a realistic picture of the IPO subscription story.

Prizor Viztech IPO - Share Allocation Across Categories

The table below captures the break-up of the overall share allocation to QIBs, retail investors and to the HNI / NII investors. The anchor allotment is carved out of the QIB quota and the QIB quota is reduced accordingly. The market maker allocation is the inventory that will be used by the market maker to provide liquidity in the counter post listing, to keep the bid-ask spreads low and reduce the risks of trading in the stock. The company has appointed Rikhav Securities Ltd as the market maker and assigned a market making inventory of 1,60,000 shares to them. The market maker will use this inventory to offer buy and sell quotes to keep the counter liquid and reduce the basis risk on the stock post listing.
