Chance of allotment
Retail27.95× subscribed
~1 in 28

Retail is 27.95× subscribed. Allotment is a lottery on a single lot, so roughly 1 in 28 applications gets one lot. Bidding for extra lots does not improve these odds.

HNI / NII174.19× subscribed
~1 in 174.2

HNI is 174.19× subscribed. This category is allotted proportionately, so a bid receives roughly 1/174.2 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.

Grey market premium

Unofficial dealer quotes — not published by NSE, BSE, SEBI or the company

₹139+33.2%
over the upper band · last seen 07 Sept 2026

What this number is not. Grey-market premium is an unregulated, thinly-traded quote from private dealers. It is not a forecast of the listing price, it is not verifiable, and it can be moved by the same people who benefit from it looking high. We publish it because you will look it up anyway — and we deliberately do not convert it into an expected listing gain, because that arithmetic implies a reliability the number has never earned. For what actually happened to comparable issues, see recent outcomes below.

Common questions

What is the Kusumgar Limited IPO GMP today?

The most recent grey-market premium recorded for Kusumgar Limited is ₹139 per share — about 33.2% over the ₹419 upper band. Grey-market premium is an unofficial, unregulated quote from private dealers. It is not published by NSE, BSE, SEBI or the company, and it is not a forecast of the listing price.

How many times is the Kusumgar Limited IPO subscribed?

Kusumgar Limited is subscribed 135.69× overall (QIB 299.09×, NII 174.19×, retail 27.95×). Subscription keeps changing until the issue closes; the final basis of allotment is published by the registrar.

What are the chances of allotment in the Kusumgar Limited IPO?

The retail portion is subscribed 27.95×, so allotment is by lottery and the odds of receiving at least one lot are roughly 1 in 28. Applying for more lots does not improve the chance of getting something — every retail applicant competes for the same single minimum lot.

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.
