Avalon Technologies IPO: How to check the Allotment Status

Avalon Technologies IPO worth Rs. 865 crore, consisted of a fresh issue of shares and an offer for sale (OFS). While the fresh issue amount was to the tune of Rs. 320 crore, the offer for sale (OFS) was to the tune of Rs. 545 crore. While the fresh issue results in fresh funds coming into the company, it also is equity and EPS dilutive. On the other hand, the offer for sale is just a transfer of ownership so it does not dilute the EPS or the equity capital.

The IPO of Avalon Technologies was overall subscribed 2.34 times, with the maximum subscription coming from the QIB segment, which got subscribed 3.77 times. While the HNI / NII segment got subscribed about 0.43 times, the retail portion got subscribed 0.88 times. Most of the QIB subscriptions came in on the last day of the IPO, which is the norm. The price band for the IPO was Rs. 415 to Rs. 436, and looking at the response, it looks fairly likely that the price discovery would eventually happen close to the upper end of the price band.
