QIB Portion
Let us first talk about the pre-IPO anchor placement. On 29th November, Star Health & Allied Insurance IPO did an anchor placement of 3,57,45,901 shares at the upper end of the price band of Rs.900 to 62 anchor investors raising Rs.3,217.13 crore.
The list of QIB investors included a number of marquee global names like Government of Singapore, Monetary Authority of Singapore, Ballie Gifford, BNP Paribas, Goldman Sachs, Janchor Partners, Universities Superannuation Fund and Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA). Domestic anchor investors included HDFC Life, Max Life, Bharat AXA Life, IIFL Opportunities Fund, Mirae MF and Edelweiss Mutual Fund; among others.
The QIB portion (net of anchor allocation as explained above) has a quota of 238.31 lakh shares of which it has got bids for 15.83 lakh shares on Day-2, implying subscription of just 0.07X for QIBs at the close of Day-2. QIB bids typically get bunched on the last day but the heavy demand for the anchor placement forebodes well for the Star Health IPO subscription overall.
HNI / NII Portion
The HNI portion got subscribed 0.02X (getting applications for 2.83 lakh shares against the quota of 119.15 lakh shares). This is a very tepid response on Day-2 but of course this segment normally sees the maximum response bunched on the last day. Bulk of the funded applications and corporate applications, come in on the last day of the IPO.
Retail Individuals
The retail portion was subscribed a more decent 0.89X at the end of Day-2, showing reasonable retail appetite. It must be noted that retail allocation is only 10% in this IPO.
