Recent GMP and subscription status on Day 2
At the end of Day 2 (August 24, 2026), the Augmont Enterprises IPO was oversubscribed 15.21 times overall. The Non-Institutional Investors (NII) quota was subscribed an impressive 35.36 times, while the employee quota was subscribed 9.22 times.
Retail Individual Investors (RIIs) also showed massive interest, oversubscribing their segment by 14.08 times. Even the Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs), who traditionally place bids on the last day, have already subscribed their share by 2.22 times.
In the unofficial grey market, the premium has skyrocketed in response to the massive subscription figures. The Grey Market Premium (GMP) currently stands at ₹372 per share. At the upper price band of ₹788, it indicates the listing price is likely to be around ₹1,160, giving potential allottees a healthy listing gain of 47.21%.
What is next?
Market analysts have attributed the bidding frenzy on Day 2 to Augmont's unique position as an integrated tech-driven bullion platform and its revenue scale. Augmont's platform-based approach enables it to process a massive volume of jewels with relatively low overheads, translating into robust ROE metrics compared to traditional brick-and-mortar jewellers.
The market is expecting a massive capital infusion from the Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) segment as the IPO moves towards its last day of bidding on August 25, 2026. The high grey market premium is likely to be supported by a strong push from the institutions on the final day and pave the way for a stellar listing on August 31, 2026.
