Here are the steps that you need to follow to check allotment status.

https://www.bseindia.com/investors/appli_check.aspx 

Once you reach the page, here are the steps to follow.
    • Under Issue Type – Select Equity Option
    • Under Issue Name – Select Nova AgriTech Ltd from the drop down box
    • Enter the Application Number exactly as in the acknowledgement slip
    • Enter the PAN (10-digit alphanumeric) number
    • Once this is done, you need to click on the Captcha to verify that you are not a robot
    • Finally click on the Search Button

In the past, while checking the allotment status on the BSE website, it was necessary to input the PAN number and the application Number. However, now BSE has modified the requirements and it is sufficient if you enter any one of these parameters. You can either input the application number or you can input your PAN.

Once the data is inputted and the captcha verification is done, the allotment status will be displayed on the screen in front of you informing about the number of shares of Nova AgriTech Ltd allotted into your demat account. It is suggested that you take a screenshot of this output page and store for future reference. You can verify the demat credit by the close of 30th January 2024.

https://www.bigshareonline.com/ipo_Allotment.html

There are three things to remember. Firstly, you can just click on the hyper link given above and directly go to the allotment checking page. The second option, in case you are not able to click on the link, is to copy the link and paste in your web browser. Thirdly, there also a way to access this page via the home page of Bigshare Services Private Ltd by clicking on the IPO Allotment Status link displayed prominently on the home page. It all works the same.

Here you are given the choice to select 3 servers viz. Server 1, Server 2, and Server 3. There is nothing to be confused, as these are just server backups in case one of the servers is experiencing too much traffic. You can select any of these 3 servers and in case you are finding problems accessing one of the servers, then try the other one. There is no difference, which server you select.

This dropdown will only show the active IPOs, so once the allotment status is finalized, you can select Nova AgriTech Ltd from the dropdown box. The allotment status will be finalized on 29th January 2024, so in this case, you can access the details on the registrar website either late on 29th January 2024 or by middle of 30th January 2024. Once the company is selected from the dropdown box, you have 3 methods to check the allotment status for the IPO.    

• Firstly, you can access with Application Number / CAF Number. Enter the Application / CAF number and then click on Search Button. Enter the application exactly it is given in the acknowledgement slip.

• Secondly, you can search by Beneficiary ID of your demat account. From the dropdown box, you must first select the depository name where the account is held i.e. NSDL or CDSL. In the case of NSDL, enter the DP id and Client id in separate boxes as provided. In case of CDSL, just enter the CDSL client number. Remember that the NSDL string is alphanumeric while the CDSL string is numeric. After that you can click the Search Button in both cases.

 • Thirdly, you can also search by Income Tax PAN number. Once you select PAN from the dropdown menu, enter your 10-digit PAN number, which is an alphanumeric code. The PAN number will be available on your PAN card or on top of your income tax returns filed. Once you enter the PAN, click on the Search Button.

The IPO status with number of shares of Nova AgriTech Ltd allotted will be displayed on the screen. You can save a screenshot of the screen for future reference. Once again, you can verify the demat credit by the close of 30th January 2024. The stock of Nova AgriTech Ltd will appear in the demat account under the ISIN Number (INE02H701025).

Subscription Status for the Nova AgriTech IPO

One of the key determinants of your allotment is the extent of subscription for various categories. Here is the final subscription status of the Nova AgriTech Ltd IPO as at close on 25th January 2024, at 18.00 hours.

Category Subscription Status
Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIB) 79.31 Times
S (HNI) ₹2 lakhs to ₹10 lakhs 227.20
B (HNI) Above ₹10 lakhs 222.52
Non Institutional Investors (NII) 224.08 Times
Retail Individuals 77.12 Times
Employees Not Applicable
Overall Subscription 109.38 times

The issue was open for QIBs (qualified institutional buyers), retail investors and for the HNI / NIIs. There was a broad quota designed for each of the segments viz. the QIBs, the retail and the HNI NII. The table below captures the allocation reservation done for each of the categories.

Category of Investors Allocation of shares under IPO
Employee Reservation Nil shares reserved for employees
Anchor Allocation 1,05,22,220 shares (30.00%)
QIB Shares Offered 70,15,139 shares (20.00%)
NII (HNI) Shares Offered 52,61,354 shares (15.00%)
Retail Shares Offered 1,22,76,492 shares (35.00%)
Total Shares Offered 3,50,75,205 shares (100.00%)

The response to the IPO of Nova AgriTech Ltd was strong overall, and it was also quite strong for the retail portion and the HNI portions. The retail subscription of 77.12 times gives a rather modest opportunity of allotment in the IPO. However, the investors can still be hopeful since the SEBI norms on retail IPO allotment focuses on trying to allot the basic lot size to as many unique investors as possible. The same can be checked using the allotment checking modus operandi explained above. You just need to wait for the basis of allotment to be finalized.

Next steps after the closure of the Nova AgriTech IPO

With the IPO closed for subscription at the end of January 25th, 2024, the next piece of action shifts to the finalization of the basis of allotment and later to the listing of the IPO. The basis of allotment will be finalized on 29th January 2024 and the refunds will be initiated on 30th January 2024. In addition, the demat credits are also expected to happen on 30th January 2024 and the stock is scheduled to list on 31st January 2024 on the NSE and the BSE simultaneously. This is the mainboard IPO segment for listing the regular stocks on the NSE and the BSE, in contrast to the SME segment. The demat credits to the demat account to the extent of allotment will happen by the close of 30th January 2024 under ISIN Number (INE02H701025).
