MV Electrosystems IPO Subscription Status Day 2: Retail Demand Pushes Issue Past 7 Times

Mumbai, July 31: Investor interest in the MV Electrosystems IPO gathered pace on the second day of bidding, with the public issue receiving subscriptions of 7.16 times by 11:58 AM. Robust participation from retail investors and non-institutional investors (NIIs) helped the issue build strong momentum, while qualified institutional buyers (QIBs) were yet to fully participate.

The retail portion emerged as the biggest contributor to demand, attracting bids for nearly 25 times the shares reserved for the category. The NII segment also witnessed healthy participation, whereas institutional investors largely remained on the sidelines, a trend commonly seen until the final day of book-built IPOs.

According to exchange data, investors had submitted bids for 2,68,78,020 shares against 37,52,942 shares on offer, with close to 3.99 lakh applications received by late morning.

Demand strengthened considerably compared with the opening day.

The sharp increase was largely driven by continued buying from retail investors and strong interest from the NII category. QIB participation remained below the one-time mark but is expected to improve closer to the issue’s closing date, as institutional investors often place bids during the final session.
