BLS Polymers IPO: 3.96x on Day 1, QIBs Lead at 7.52x
BLS Polymers is the standout of the day. The ₹255 crore issue — a pure fresh issue of 1.70 crore shares — opened today and was subscribed 3.96 times by 12:03 PM, according to NSE data. Qualified institutional buyers led the charge at 7.52 times, non-institutional investors at 3 times and retail investors at 2.34 times.
- Price band: ₹142–150 per share; lot size 100 shares (minimum investment ₹15,000)
- Issue dates: 27–29 October 2026
- Use of proceeds: Expansion of the Goa manufacturing facility, working capital and general corporate purposes
- GMP (unofficial): Around ₹33–40, implying roughly 22–27% over the upper band
- Listing: Tentatively 3 November 2026 on BSE and NSE
The company makes specialised polymer compounds. The Day 1 institutional response is the strongest among the five open issues and sets up a closely watched close on 29 October.
EAAA India Alternatives: Still Slow at 0.13x on Day 2
EAAA India Alternatives, the Edelweiss group's alternative asset management arm, remains the slowest mainboard issue. On Day 2 it was subscribed only about 0.13 times by late morning, barely up from 0.11–0.12 times on Day 1. Retail participation stayed weak at around 0.06 times, with QIBs at 0.08 times and NIIs at 0.35 times.
- Issue size: ₹1,200 crore, entirely an offer for sale of 72.07 lakh shares by Edelweiss Securities & Investments
- Price band: ₹1,585–1,665; lot size 9 shares (minimum investment ₹14,985)
- Closes: 28 October 2026; allotment expected 29 October; listing tentatively 2 November
- GMP (unofficial): Tracker-dependent — around ₹15 on some trackers (under 1%) and up to ₹121 on others; treat with caution
Because the issue is a pure OFS, the company receives no proceeds; the entire amount goes to the selling shareholder. With one day left, the issue needs a sharp pickup on the final day to get fully subscribed.
SFC Environmental Technologies: Quiet 0.02x Start on Day 1
SFC Environmental Technologies opened today with a very quiet start — about 0.02 times subscribed by 10:36 AM, with retail at 0.04 times, HNIs at 0.01 times and no QIB bids yet. Early Day 1 numbers for large issues are often slow, and the picture typically changes as the window progresses.
- Issue size: ₹667.53 crore; price band ₹313–330; lot size 45 shares (minimum investment ₹14,850)
- Issue dates: 27–29 October 2026; listing tentatively 3 November
- GMP (unofficial): Around ₹20–32, implying roughly 6–10% over the upper band
Wiscon Industries: Day 1 Underway, No Numbers Yet
Wiscon Industries, the ₹110 crore BSE SME issue, also opened today. No subscription data had been reported by midday. The issue is priced at ₹194–204 per share with a 600-share lot, closes on 29 October and is tentatively scheduled to list on 3 November. Its grey market premium is reported at ₹0 (unofficial).
Core4 Engineers Closes Today at ~0.76x
Core4 Engineers, the BSE SME issue priced at ₹88–93, closes for bidding today. It was subscribed about 0.76 times, with NIIs at 2.41 times but retail at just 0.49 times and no QIB bids. If it closes undersubscribed, the issue may still proceed subject to the underwriting and regulatory provisions for SME issues, but allotment and listing dates (tentatively 28 and 30 October) should be confirmed by the exchange and registrar.
Jio Platforms Allotment Finalised; Lists Tomorrow, 28 October
The week's headline event is set. The basis of allotment for Jio Platforms was finalised on Tuesday, 27 October, after the ₹30,213 crore issue closed at 22.19 times subscription. Shares are being credited to allottees' demat accounts today, with refunds for unsuccessful applicants processed the same day.
- Listing: Wednesday, 28 October 2026, at 10 AM on BSE and NSE
- Issue price: ₹1,119 per share (upper end of the ₹1,065–1,119 band)
- GMP (unofficial): Around ₹244–250, implying roughly 22% over the issue price and an indicative listing near ₹1,363–1,369

Paras Healthcare, which closed alongside Jio, also lists tomorrow, 28 October. Its grey market premium is reported at around ₹11 (unofficial), implying a near-flat debut.
