In contrast, the portion reserved for Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) received bids for only 8,798 shares against 64,75,471 shares allocated for the category. This tepid QIB response is expected to improve as institutional investors typically place large bids closer to the IPO’s closing date.

The strong initial response aligns with grey market trends. Mobikwik’s unlisted shares were trading at Rs 415, reflecting a grey market premium (GMP) of Rs 136 or 48.75% above the IPO’s upper price band of Rs 279 per share.
