Every line above is arithmetic on a figure shown elsewhere on this page - no model, no opinion. It describes the quality of the offering as disclosed, and is pulled toward neutral to reflect how much the document leaves unsaid. It is not a prediction of the listing price, and it is not advice to apply.

Demand and your odds
How the book filled, and what that means for an application
1,700 applications received — how many people bid, as opposed to how much money did. Exchange figures as of 21 Aug 2026.
Retail is 3.08× subscribed. Allotment is a lottery on a single lot, so roughly 1 in 3.1 applications gets one lot. Bidding for extra lots does not improve these odds.
The HNI portion is under-subscribed at 0.24×, so applications should be allotted in full.
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.

How the issue is split between investor categories, and what each may bid.
| Category | Shares | % of issue |
|---|---|---|
| QIB | 28,800 | 1.07% |
| NII (HNI) | 12,67,200 | 46.93% |

| Retail | 12,67,200 | 46.93% |
| Market Maker | 1,36,800 | 5.07% |
Total issue 27,00,000 shares. Indented rows sit inside the category above them and are not added to it.
Lot size alone does not answer "how much do I need" — an S-HNI minimum is several lots, not one.
What the money is for

Objects with no stated amount — typically general corporate purposes — are funded from whatever remains, so the quantified figures do not sum to the whole issue.
How the issuer compares
The listed companies the offer document itself names as comparable.
| Company | EPS | P/E | NAV | RoNW |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dhanwel Hybrid Seeds Limitedthis issue | 9.56 | 10.36 | 30.70 | 31.11% |
| Bombay Super Hybrid Seeds Limited | 2.54 | 34.78 | 12.49 | 20.35% |
| Upsurge Seeds of Agriculture Limited | 7.43 | 12.18 | 61.47 | 12.06% |
Blank cells are figures the offer document does not publish. An unlisted issuer has no market price, so it has no price-based multiple until it lists — which is exactly why the comparison is against companies that already trade. The peer set is the issuer's own selection, so read it as the flattering-est comparison available rather than a neutral one.

Common questions
How many times is the Dhanwel Hybrid Seeds IPO subscribed?
Dhanwel Hybrid Seeds is subscribed 1.65× overall (QIB 1.00×, NII 0.24×, retail 3.08×). Subscription keeps changing until the issue closes; the final basis of allotment is published by the registrar, Cameo Corporate Services Ltd.
What is the minimum investment in the Dhanwel Hybrid Seeds IPO?
One lot is 1,200 shares, so a retail application at the ₹99 cut-off price blocks ₹1,18,800. 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 Dhanwel Hybrid Seeds IPO?
The retail portion is subscribed 3.08×, 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 Dhanwel Hybrid Seeds IPO allotment date?
Allotment is scheduled for 2026-08-24, with listing on 2026-08-26. 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, Cameo Corporate Services 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.
