Allotment Timeline:
T Day (Transaction Day):
Investors place bids during the OFS bidding window, which typically operates during market hours (9:15 AM to 3:30 PM IST). T+1 Day (Next Working Day):
The company or the selling shareholder, along with the stock exchange, finalizes the allocation based on bids. Shares are credited to the Demat account of successful bidders. For unsuccessful bids or partial allotment, the unutilized funds are unblocked or refunded. T+2 Day (Rare Cases):
If the process involves additional reconciliation or if there’s a delay, shares may be credited by T+2 working days.
Note:
Retail and Non-Retail Investors:
The first day of the OFS is typically reserved for non-retail investors, while retail investors participate on the second day. If you bid as a retail investor, the shares are allotted after the second day.
