Shadowfax IPO allotment done, 2.7x subscribed

Shadowfax Technologies Ltd has completed the allotment for its IPO, which attracted strong investor interest. The company’s public offering, valued at ₹1,907 crore, saw an overall subscription of 2.7 times, driven mainly by Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs), alongside notable retail participation. The IPO was open for bidding from January 20 to 22, 2026, and allotment was finalised on January 23.

Investors can check their allotment status through the registrar KFin Technologies or via the BSE and NSE websites. Those who did not receive an allocation will have their applications refunded in the coming days.

Shadowfax shares are scheduled to list on the Bombay Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange on January 28, 2026. Grey market trends—a popular, though unofficial, indicator—suggest that shares could debut at or slightly below the issue price, reflecting cautious sentiment among investors.

The IPO price band was set at ₹118–₹124 per share, with retail investors required to buy a minimum lot of around ₹14,000. The company intends to use the funds to expand its logistics network, strengthen technology infrastructure, and support growth initiatives in its delivery business.

With the allotment completed and refunds underway for non-allocated applications, attention now turns to January 28, when trading begins. The subscription pattern highlighted strong institutional demand, with QIBs oversubscribing their portion, while the retail segment also showed solid participation.

Analysts note that the initial listing performance will be closely watched, as it will indicate investor confidence in Shadowfax’s expansion plans and operational model.
