Glenmark Life Sciences—IPO How to Check Allotment Application Status

Glenmark Life Sciences, an India-based firm that manufactures Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API), is moving forward with its IPO allotment. Glenmark Life Sciences is expected to list publicly for trading on both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. (NSE).

The IPO for Glenmark Life Sciences opened for subscription on July 27 and has been subscribed at 44.17 times its IPO. Those bidding on the IPO shares can check their status by checking at the BSE website or the KFintech website, which is the official registrar of the IPO.

Since Glenmark is a highly oversubscribed IPO, the demand for shares exceeds the supply of available shares being offered in the IPO. Therefore, not all prospective investors will be able to get a piece of the newly public company.

The shares will be allotted to certain investors who have shown interest. To find out your Glenmark Life Sciences IPO allotment status, you will need to go to either the BSE website or the KFintech site and check your application.

Originally, the Glenmark IPO price band was fixed at Rs 695–720 per share. According to the Indian Express, there were bids of over 66.33 crores received against the total issue size of 1.50 crore.

Some shares are allotted only to QIBs (qualified institutional buyers), and those were subscribed 36.97 times. Non-institutional investors were even more oversubscribed at 122.54 times the offering. Individual retail investors were subscribed 14.63 times, according to data from the NSE.

The Glenmark IPO allotment was expected to be completed on Aug. 3, but according to the registrar’s website, it's set for Aug. 4.

Those who have applied for the Glenmark Life Sciences IPO allotment can check their status on the Kfintech website. You need your application number, client ID, or PAN to see your personal status in the IPO allotment.
