Category of Investors | Shares Allocation |
Reservation for Employees | Not Applicable |
Anchor Allocation | 1,994,288 shares (29.90%) |
QIB | 1,500,000 shares (22.49%) |
NII (HNI) | 1,000,000 shares (14.99%) |
NII >₹ 10L | 666,666 shares (9.99%) |
NII < ₹ 10L | 333,334 shares (5.00%) |

Employee | 75,564 shares (1.13%) |
Total Shares | 6,669,852 shares (100.00%) |
Notably, the 1,994,288 shares allocated to the anchor investors on 16th August 2024 were reduced from the original QIB quota, and only the residual amount will be available to QIBs in the IPO. This change has been reflected in the table above, with the QIB IPO portion reduced to the extent of the anchor allocation. Consequently, the QIB quota has decreased from its original allocation before the anchor allocation to the reduced percentage after the anchor allocation. The overall allocation to QIBs includes the anchor portion, so the allotted anchor shares have been deducted from the QIB quota for the public issue.
Finer Points of the Anchor Allocation Process
Before diving into the specifics of the anchor allotment for Interarch Building Products Limited, it's crucial to understand the process of anchor placement. Anchor placement is a key step ahead of an IPO or FPO that sets the stage for investor confidence. Unlike a pre-IPO placement, anchor allocation has a lock-in period, albeit shorter.
The standard lock-in period for anchor investors is just one month, but recent regulations mandate that a portion of the anchor allotment will remain locked in for three months. This step is designed to bolster confidence among retail investors, signalling that large, established institutions back the issue. The involvement of institutional investors like mutual funds and foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) lends significant credibility to the IPO.
Bid Date | August 16, 2024 |
Shares Offered | 1,994,288 |
Anchor Portion Size (In Cr.) | 179.49 |
Anchor lock-in period end date for 50% shares (30 Days) | September 21, 2024 |
Anchor lock-in period end date for remaining shares (90 Days) | November 20, 2024 |
Shares cannot, however, be distributed to anchor investors below the IPO price. According to the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirement) Regulations, 2018, as amended, if the Offer Price found through the book-building process is higher than the Anchor Investor Allocation Price, the Anchor investors will be required to pay the difference by the pay-in as specified in the revised CAN. This is explicitly stated in the SEBI revised regulations.
An anchor investor in an initial public offering (IPO) is typically a qualified institutional buyer (QIB), such as a sovereign fund, mutual fund, or overseas portfolio investor, who invests the IPO being made available to the general public following SEBI criteria. The IPO portion to the public (QIB portion) is lowered to that degree since the anchor portion is a component of the public issue. These anchors, the first investors, give investors trust and enhance the appeal of the IPO process. Additionally, anchor investors play a significant role in the IPO's price discovery.
