Urban Company, the leading tech-enabled home and beauty services platform, has finalized the allotment status for its highly anticipated Initial Public Offering (IPO). The public issue, which was open for subscription from September 10 to September 12, 2025, received an overwhelming response from investors, leading to a massive oversubscription.
The IPO, which aimed to raise ₹1,900 crore, garnered bids for over 100 times the shares on offer, making it one of the most subscribed IPOs of the year. The strong demand was seen across all investor categories:
With such a high level of oversubscription, the allotment process for retail investors was conducted on a lottery basis, significantly reducing the chances of receiving shares.
Investors who applied for the Urban Company IPO can now check their allotment status online. The status is available on the websites of the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), the National Stock Exchange (NSE), and the IPO’s official registrar, MUFG Intime India Private Limited.
The shares of Urban Company are scheduled to be listed on both the BSE and NSE on September 17, 2025. Ahead of the listing, the company’s shares have been commanding a significant premium in the grey market. The Grey Market Premium (GMP) has been hovering around ₹68, suggesting a potential listing price of approximately ₹171 per share, which is a remarkable premium over the issue price of ₹103.
While GMP is an unofficial indicator and can fluctuate based on market sentiment, it reflects a strong appetite for the company’s shares. Urban Company’s business model, which has shown a turnaround to profitability in the last fiscal year, along with its dominant position in the rapidly growing Indian home services market, is a major factor driving investor confidence.
Investors who have been allotted shares will have them credited to their Demat accounts, and refunds for un-allotted applications are also being processed. The listing day will be closely watched by market observers to see if the stock’s performance lives up to the high expectations set by the grey market.
