Moneyview IPO Closes With 14.24 Times Subscription as Grey Market Signals 38% Listing Gain

The ₹1,091.68 crore initial public offering (IPO) of fintech lending company Moneyview concluded its three-day bidding window on a resounding note, achieving an overall subscription of 14.24 times on its final day. Strong participation from high-net-worth individuals and retail bidders, paired with steady institutional bidding towards the close, drove substantial demand for the digital lender's public issue.

In the unlisted market, the grey market premium (GMP) hovered around ₹13 to ₹14 per share, pointing to an estimated listing premium of approximately 38% to 41% above the upper price band of ₹34.

Issue Structure and Capital Allocation

The public issue was offered in a price band of ₹32 to ₹34 per equity share with a face value of ₹1 each. The minimum bid lot was fixed at 441 shares, requiring a minimum retail commitment of ₹14,994 at the cap price.

The book-built issue comprises:

• A fresh issue of 22.06 crore equity shares aggregating up to ₹750 crore.
• An offer for sale (OFS) of 10.05 crore equity shares worth up to ₹341.68 crore by existing selling shareholders.

Prior to the public launch, Moneyview mobilized ₹327.50 crore from marquee institutional investors through its anchor book allocation, which drew investments from leading domestic asset managers, including SBI Mutual Fund, ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, and HDFC Mutual Fund.

Net proceeds from the fresh capital raise are slated to support loan disbursals under default loss guarantee (DLG) arrangements (₹325 crore) and strengthen the capital base of its core lending subsidiary, Whizdm Finance Private Limited (₹250 crore), alongside meeting general corporate expenses.
