According to data available (until 11:40am) with the National Stock Exchange, the initial share sale received bids for 2,16,17,852 shares, while the fintech company offered 1,18,71,696 shares.

The issue was subscribed 7.69 times by Retail Individual Investors, and the Non-Institutional Investors portion received a subscription of 1.55 times.

One Mobikwik Systems raised ₹257 crore from anchor investors on the eve of the IPO, the company said. Investors can subscribe to the IPO till Friday.

The public issue is entirely a fresh issuance of equity shares with no offer-for-sale (OFS) component, while the price band has been fixed at ₹265-279 per share.

The Gurugram-based firm will use the proceeds for organic growth in its financial services business, expanding its payment services, research and development in artificial intelligence; machine learning, technology, and capital expenditure on payment devices.

Mobikwik, its flagship application, gives consumers access to various payment options and financial products in digital credit, investments, and insurance.

Also, this the second attempt by One Mobikwik Systems for the public issue following the earlier one in July 2021. However, in November of the year, it shelved its plans and withdrew its draft papers due to unfavourable market conditions.

For the current IPO, the company, founded by Bipin Preet Singh and Upasana Taku, refiled the draft papers in January.
