C2C Advanced Systems IPO Allotment Expected Today; GMP Climbs Indicating Strong Listing

The allotment of C2C Advanced Systems IPO is expected to be finalised on Friday, November 29. The IPO allotment and listing, scheduled for November 27 and 29 respectively, were delayed after a directive from the Securities and Exchange Board of India asked C2C Advanced Systems to appoint an independent auditor and file an independent report on its financials.

Despite the SEBI action, the C2C Advanced Systems IPO closed with a massive demand which saw the SME issue getting subscribed 116.64 times on its final day of bidding.

The company had provided the IPO investors, including from the anchor portion, the option to withdraw their bids for shares before the allocation process. The application withdrawal window which concluded on Thursday, November 28 saw over 3.72 lakh applications withdrawn by investors.

Data on the National Stock Exchange as of 5 p.m. showed that 3,72,235 IPO applications have been withdrawn for 26.94 crore shares. The highest number of bid cancellations came from retail investors, followed by high net-worth individuals.

After the conclusion of the withdrawal, it is now expected that the C2C Advanced Systems IPO share allotment will be finalised today. The shares are now anticipated to be listed on the NSE SME platform, Emerge, on Tuesday, December 3.

Investors who did not withdraw their application can check the share allotment on NSE and IPO registrar websites by following the step-by-step guide provided below.
