A mixed but reasonable offering — 4 positive against 1 negative signals

- Strong revenue growthRevenue compounding at 31.3% across the reported years
- Profit growth outpaces salesPAT up 155.6% a year against revenue at 31.3% — check whether that is operating leverage or a one-off before extrapolating it

Demand and your odds
How the book filled, and what that means for an application
28,60,413 applications received — how many people bid, as opposed to how much money did. Exchange figures as of 13 Aug 2026.
Retail is 8.86× subscribed. Allotment is a lottery on a single lot, so roughly 1 in 8.9 applications gets one lot. Bidding for extra lots does not improve these odds.
HNI is 36.75× subscribed. This category is allotted proportionately, so a bid receives roughly 1/36.8 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.

Lot size alone does not answer "how much do I need" — an S-HNI minimum is several lots, not one.
Anchors are institutional money placed a day before bidding opens, against a lock-in. Those two dates are when that stock can first be sold — a supply event worth knowing if you still hold.
