Out of 20,501,793 shares on offer, anchors picked up 9,225,807 shares, demonstrating strong market confidence. The anchor allocation details were reported to the stock exchanges on December 10, 2024, just ahead of the IPO opening on December 11, 2024.

The book-built issue of ₹572.00 crores comprises a fresh issue of 20,501,793 shares aggregating to ₹572.00 crores. The price band is set at ₹265 to ₹279 per share, with a face value of ₹2 per share. This includes a share premium of ₹277 per share at the upper end of the price band.

The anchor allocation process, which took place on December 10, 2024, saw strong participation from institutional investors. The entire anchor allocation was made at the upper end of the price band, ₹279 per share, indicating robust demand and confidence in the company's prospects.

After the anchor allocation, the overall allocation of the IPO looks as follows:

Category Shares Offered Allocation (%)
Anchor Investor 9,225,807 45%
Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIB) 6,150,538 30%
Non-Institutional Investors (NII) 3,075,269 15%
Retail 2,050,179 10%
Total 20,501,793 100%

 

Notably, the 9,225,807 shares allocated to anchor investors were reduced from the original Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIB) quota. The QIB quota has been adjusted to ensure that the overall allocation to QIBs, including the anchor portion, remains within regulatory limits.

The lock-in period for anchor investors is an important aspect of the allocation. For Mobikwik IPO, the lock-in details are as follows:

  • Lock-in Period (50% Shares): January 15, 2025.
  • Lock-in Period (Remaining Shares): March 16, 2025.

 

This lock-in period ensures that anchor investors maintain their investments for a specified duration, stabilizing the stock price after listing.
