Chance of allotment
Retail3.39× subscribed
~1 in 3.4
Minimum 1 lot · 107 shares · ₹14,873 blocked

Retail is 3.39× subscribed. Allotment is a lottery on a single lot, so roughly 1 in 3.4 applications gets one lot. Bidding for extra lots does not improve these odds.

HNI / NII15.69× subscribed
~1 in 15.7
Minimum 14 lots · 1,498 shares · ₹2,08,222 blocked

HNI is 15.69× subscribed. This category is allotted proportionately, so a bid receives roughly 1/15.7 of the shares applied for, subject to the minimum-lot draw.

Derived from SEBI's allotment mechanics and the subscription figures beside it. Retail allotment is a lottery on a single lot, so applying for more lots does not improve your chance of getting something.

Risks worth reading

Ranked by our severity assessment, not by the order the prospectus prints them

mediumOur revenue and profits are largely dependent on the value and composition of our AUM, and any adverse change in our AUM may impact our revenue and profit.

mediumA decrease in our AUM may cause a decline in our fees and therefore our revenue from operations, and consequently, our profit.

mediumNon-compliance with RBI’s observations made during any inspection could expose us to penalties and restrictions.

Litigation

Except as stated below, there are no outstanding criminal proceedings, actions by regulatory or statutory authorities, claims relating to direct and indirect taxes, or other pending litigations involving the Company, Subsidiaries, Directors, or Promoters (excluding State Bank of India). There are no disciplinary actions including penalties imposed by SEBI or stock exchanges against Promoters in the last five Fiscals preceding this Red Herring Prospectus.

Common questions

How many times is the Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited IPO subscribed?

Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited is subscribed 20.10× overall (QIB 52.65×, NII 15.69×, retail 3.39×). Subscription keeps changing until the issue closes; the final basis of allotment is published by the registrar, MUFG Intime India Pvt Ltd.

What is the minimum investment in the Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited IPO?

One lot is 107 shares, so a retail application at the ₹139 cut-off price blocks ₹14,873. Retail applications are capped at ₹2,00,000; above that you bid in the HNI category, where allotment is proportionate rather than by lottery.

What are the chances of allotment in the Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited IPO?

The retail portion is subscribed 3.39×, so allotment is by lottery and the odds of receiving at least one lot are roughly 1 in 3. Applying for more lots does not improve the chance of getting something — every retail applicant competes for the same single minimum lot.

When is the Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited IPO allotment date?

Allotment is scheduled for 2026-09-15, with listing on 2026-09-17. These dates are the issuer's tentative timetable — a date passing is not confirmation that the step completed. Allotment status is published by the registrar, MUFG Intime India Pvt Ltd.

Disclaimer. Figures are compiled from the issuer's offer document and exchange-published bidding data. Subscription changes until the issue closes, and the final basis of allotment is published by the registrar. Grey-market premium is unofficial and is not a forecast. Nothing here is investment advice or a recommendation — read the offer document and consult a SEBI-registered adviser before applying.
