HDB Financial Services’ ₹12,500 crore IPO, the largest Indian listing of 2025 so far, officially closed last week after receiving a strong response across all investor categories. Allotment status was finalized on June 30, and investors are now checking if their applications have secured a slice of this high-profile offering ahead of the July 2 market debut.
Strong Demand Confirms Market Confidence in HDB
The ₹12,500 crore offering, which equates to approximately $1.5 billion, was fully subscribed on the second day of bidding. That momentum came as a clear vote of confidence in HDB Financial’s fundamentals and in India’s capital market, which is showing strong signs of recovery after months of cautious sentiment.
Here’s how the IPO performed:
- Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) led the charge, oversubscribing their quota by a wide margin
- Non-Institutional Investors (NIIs) and retail investors also showed healthy participation
- The issue saw a total subscription of 16.7 times, marking one of the most successful NBFC IPOs in recent memory
HDB IPO Allotment Status: How to Know If You Got Shares
As of July 1, the allotment status is available for applicants to check through:
- The BSE India website
- The registrar’s portal (MUFG Intime)
- Demat account updates from respective brokers
Refunds for unallocated shares are also being processed, and credited shares should reflect in investors’ accounts by end of day today.
Strong Debut Expected as GMP Stays Elevated
The grey market premium still between ₹65 and ₹70. That suggests the stock could open about 8% to 9% higher than its issue price, assuming sentiment stays intact. Grey market signals aren’t always precise predictors of opening performance, but they offer a snapshot of investor sentiment.
What Happens Next: Key Milestones
Today, July 1, marks the final stage of allotment logistics, with refunds being processed and shares credited into investors’ Demat accounts. Tomorrow, July 2, HDB Financial Services will make its official market debut on the NSE and BSE, marking what could be one of the year’s most closely watched listings.
Listing Day Outlook: Optimism Meets Caution
That said, much of this optimism is already priced in. If broader markets stay firm, a listing above ₹800 could materialize. But any surprise volatility or weak institutional sentiment may keep gains capped.
Bottom Line
With the HDB IPO allotment status now settled, attention shifts to tomorrow’s listing and with it, expectations for one of the year’s most anticipated debuts. Regardless of where the first trade lands, this IPO has already revived confidence in India’s primary markets. Investors are watching, and so is the rest of the Street.
