Here are the steps that you need to follow to check allotment status.

Input Options to check your allotment status

This dropdown will only show the active IPOs, so once the allotment status is finalized, you can select Atmastco Ltd from the dropdown box. The allotment status will be finalized on 21st February 2024, so in this case, you can access the details on the registrar website either late on 21st February 2024 or by middle of 22nd February 2024. Once the company is selected from the dropdown box, you have 3 methods to check the allotment status for the IPO. The preferred method, out of the 3 options, can be selected from the same screen by opting for the preferred radio button.

• Firstly, you can search by Beneficiary ID of your demat account. From the page you just need to first select the DP ID / Client ID option. It does not matter whether it is an NSDL account or a CDSL account. All you need to do is to write down the combination of the DP ID and the Client ID in a single string. In the case of NSDL, enter the DP id and Client id in a single string without space. In case of CDSL, just enter the CDSL client number. Remember that the NSDL string is alphanumeric while the CDSL string is a numeric string. The details of your DP and client ID are available in your online DP statement or in the statement of account. After that you can click the Search Button in either cases.

• In all the 3 cases above, please note that after inputting the details as relevant, there will be a 6-digit captcha that will appear and you must enter the captcha exactly as it is. It is fully a numeric captcha and it is meant to confirm that it is not a robotic access. In case you find that the captcha code is not too clear, 
The IPO status with number of shares of Atmastco Ltd allotted will be displayed on the screen. The screen will show the name of the first holder of the demat account, the number of allotted shares, the refund amount (if any), refund mode (cheque / ECS / ASBA) and the query number.

You can save a screenshot of the screen for future reference. Once again, you can verify the demat credit by the close of 22nd February 2024 with the following details viz. (ISIN - INE05DH01017). Remember that the most important factor in assessing your chances of getting allotment is the extent of oversubscription in the IPO. Normally, higher the oversubscription in the IPO, the lower are your chances of getting an allotment. Now, let us look at the extent of oversubscription that the IPO of Atmastco Ltd got.

Subscription response to the IPO of Atmastco Ltd

The response to the IPO of Atmastco Ltd was modest as the overall issue was subscribed 17.61X at the close of bidding on 20th February 2024, which is below the median subscription that the NSE SME IPOs have been getting in general. Out of the overall bids received, the retail segment saw 18.24 times subscription and the non-retail HNI / NII portion saw 14.92 times subscription. The table below captures the overall allocation of shares with the oversubscription details as of the close of the IPO on 20th February 2024.

The issue has been very modestly subscribed; hence your chances of allotment would proportionately increase. Investors must keep these calculations in mind while checking the allotment status once it is finalized at the registrar end. Of course, it would eventually depend on the basis of allotment as finalized by the company and approved by exchanges.

The issue is split into retail and HNI portion with a small allocation for the market maker to the IPO. The break-down of the reservation for  different categories of investors is as under.

Next steps in the IPO process

With the IPO closed for subscription at the end of 20th February, 2024, the next piece of action shifts to the finalization of the basis of allotment and later to the listing of the IPO. The basis of allotment will be finalized on 21st February, 2024 and the refunds will be initiated on 22nd February, 2024. In addition, the demat credits are also expected to happen on 22nd February, 2024 and the stock is scheduled to list on 23rd February 2024 on the NSE SME segment. This is the segment, in contrast to the mainboard, where IPOs of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are incubated. The demat credits to the demat account to the extent of allotment will happen by the close of 22nd February 2024 under ISIN Number (INE05DH01017).
