The Rs 30,213 crore issue is India&#8217;s largest, with a price band of Rs 1,065 to Rs 1,119 and a lot of 12 shares. Allotment is expected on 26 Oct and listing on 28 Oct on NSE and BSE.<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#F0F9FF;border-left:4px solid #2E7D32;border-radius:6px;padding:14px 18px;margin:18px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0;color:#1F4E79;font-size:14px;\"><strong>Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:8px 0 0;\">Jio Platforms IPO is subscribed above 7 times on the final day, with the qualified institutional buyer (QIB) portion at about 14.4 times at midday and the non-institutional portion at about 9.4 times. Retail was at about 2.1 times, so the broad demand comes mainly from institutions. The grey market premium was reported at about Rs 240 to Rs 250, which would mean a listing near 21% to 22% above the upper band if it holds. GMP is unofficial and the final subscription figures come from the exchanges after the 5 PM close.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Jio Platforms IPO is the biggest public issue India has seen, larger than the Rs 27,870 crore Hyundai Motor India issue of 2024. It is a fresh issue of 27 crore shares with no offer for sale, so all the money goes to the company and not to selling shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>This article on Jio Platforms IPO covers the final-day subscription, the GMP, the anchor book, the dates, valuation, financials and risks. It is educational and not a recommendation to apply or avoid.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><strong><a

Strong demand from anchor investors shows institutional interest, but anchor bids and final-day bids are different things.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"About_Jio_Platforms\"><\/span><strong>About Jio Platforms<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Jio Platforms is a Reliance Industries subsidiary that runs the Jio mobile network, home broadband and digital services, with about 533.3 million customers. Managing Director Akash Ambani describes it as a technology company and says AI and cloud services are being added on top of the connectivity business.<\/p>\n<p>At the upper band the company is valued at about $108 billion, or roughly Rs 10.30 lakh crore of market value. A telecom and digital group of this size is a new kind of listing for Indian retail investors, and the Jio Platforms IPO will change index weights once it lists.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jio_Platforms_IPO_Financials_and_Valuation\"><\/span><strong>Jio Platforms IPO Financials and Valuation<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table style=\"border-collapse:collapse;width:100%;\">\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;background:#0A0E1A;color:#FFFFFF;\">Jio Platforms IPO: financial point<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;background:#0A0E1A;color:#FFFFFF;\">Figure<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">FY26 revenue<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">Rs 1,49,759.10 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">FY26 net profit<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">Rs 30,052.70 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">Q1 FY27 revenue (June 2026)<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">Rs 40,197.90 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">Q1 FY27 net profit<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">Rs 7,764.10 crore<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">P\/E at the upper band<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">About 33 to 34 times (source figure and my calculation)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">FY26 net profit margin<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:8px;border:1px solid #DDDDDD;\">About 20.1% (my calculation)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>A profit margin near 20% for a telecom company is high, and it reflects scale and tariff gains.

The sources I checked did not state the use of proceeds, so read the red herring prospectus for that.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Brokerages_Say_About_the_Jio_Platforms_IPO\"><\/span><strong>What Brokerages Say About the Jio Platforms IPO<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Most brokerage notes have been positive, pointing to market leadership, rising average revenue per user, tariff hikes, 5G and broadband growth and strong cash flows.
