How to Check IPO Allotment Status

After submitting your IPO application, the anticipation of whether or not you have been allotted shares begins. IPO allotment status provides investors clarity on their investment—whether to prepare for listing day or anticipate a refund. Checking this status is simple if you know where and how to look. This guide provides a comprehensive breakdown of the platforms and steps to verify IPO allotment online using details like PAN, Application Number, or DP ID.

IPO allotment status refers to the confirmation of whether shares have been allocated to your application in a public offering. Once the IPO subscription closes, the registrar verifies applications, eliminates duplicates, and allots shares based on SEBI guidelines.

Registrars such as KFintech or Link Intime are appointed by issuing companies to manage this process. The allotment status is usually published within a week after the IPO subscription closes.

The IPO allotment process usually concludes within 6 working days post IPO closure (T+6). Here’s a breakdown:

• T+1 to T+3: Application verification and validation
  

• T+4 to T+5: Finalisation of allotment by registrar
  

• T+6: Allotment status published online
  

You can start checking the allotment status on the registrar’s website, BSE or NSE around this time.

To check your IPO allotment status online, you should keep the following information ready:

• PAN (Permanent Account Number)
  

• Application Number (from broker/ASBA (Application Supported by Blocked Amount) confirmation)
  

• DP ID/Client ID (from Demat account)
  

• IPO name or Symbol
  

Here’s what needs to be done after checking your allotment status:

If Shares Are Allotted

• Check your Demat account for share credit (usually T+6 to T+7)
  

• Prepare for listing (check listing date and price)
  

If Shares Are Not Allotted

• Refund or release of blocked funds via ASBA/UPI happens automatically
  

• Funds usually reflect in 3-4 working days

Here’s how to troubleshoot certain common errors:

Site not loading or down

• Registrar websites may be slow during peak IPO seasons. Stay patient and try again after some time.
  

Entered correct details but still shows “No Records Found”

• Cross-verify IPO symbol and ID formats. Allotment may not yet be published.
  

Didn’t receive a refund

• Check ASBA status via your bank. UPI mandates auto-release funds back to the bank.

Verifying your IPO allotment status is an essential step in your equity investment cycle. Whether through BSE, NSE, or registrar portals, the process is transparent and typically user-friendly. Keeping track ensures timely action on Demat credit or refund and prepares you for listing day dynamics.
