IRM Energy IPO is entirely a fresh issue of shares and has a face value of ₹10 per share. The price band for the book building IPO has been set in the range of ₹480 to ₹505 per share with the final price to be discovered in this band through the process of book building. The entire IPO is a fresh issue and there is no offer for sale (OFS) component in the issue. In the case of IRM Energy IPO, the fresh issue portion entails the issue of 1,08,00,000 shares (1.08 crore shares), which at the upper price band of ₹505 per share will translate into fresh issue size of ₹545.40 crore. In the absence of an OFS the fresh issue will also be the total size of the issue. Hence the overall IPO will also entail the issue of 1,08,00,000 shares (1.08 crore shares), which at the upper price band of ₹505 per share will amount to a total IPO issue size of ₹545.40 crore.
Day-wise story of IPO response
While the QIB portion and the HNI / NII portion picked up traction on the last day, the overall journey was quite slow in the first 2 days of the IPO with most of the action visible on the last day of the IPO only. Interestingly, even the QIB portion got fully subscribed this time around on the first day itself, which normally does not happen. Of course, the retail portion and the HNI / NII portion also got subscribed on the first day of the IPO itself, although most of the traction across segments was visible only on the last day of the IPO i.e., 20th October 2023. As a result, even the overall IPO got fully subscribed on the first day of the IPO itself, although even here the real traction was visible on the last day only. The table below captures the day-wise progress in IPO subscription.

On 17th October 2023, IRM Energy Ltd completed the bidding for its anchor allocation. There was a robust response as the anchor investors participated through the process of book building. A total of 31,75,200 shares were allotted to the anchor investors.

The QIB portion (net of anchor allocation as explained above) had a quota of 21.17 lakh shares of which it has got bids for 946.76 lakh shares at the close of Day-3, implying a subscription ratio of 44.73X for QIBs at the close of Day-3. QIB bids typically get bunched on the last day and while the heavy demand for the anchor placement had given an indication of the institutional appetite for the IRM Energy Ltd IPO subscription overall, the actual demand did turn out to be quite robust for the IPO.
Subscription status of HNI / NII Portion
The HNI portion got subscribed 48.34X (getting applications for 767.51 lakh shares against the quota of 15.88 lakh shares). That is a relatively strong response at the close of Day-3 largely because this segment normally sees the maximum response bunched on the last day.

Apart from the QIB portion, even HNIs saw good traction on the last day.
Now the NII/HNI portion is reported in two parts viz. bids below ₹10 lakhs (S-HNI) and bids above ₹10 lakhs (B-HNI).

If you break up the HNI portion, the above ₹10 lakh bid category got subscribed 52.29X while the below ₹10 lakh bid category (S-HNIs) got subscribed 40.46X. This is just for information and is already part of the overall HNI bids explained in the previous paragraph.
Subscription status of Retail Individuals
