How to Check Your IPO Allotment Status Online

 Investing in an initial public offering (IPO) can be an exciting way to get in early on a new publicly traded company. However, the process does not end once you have applied for shares in the IPO. You still need to check whether you have received an allotment of the shares you applied for. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to check IPO allotment status online:

Step 1: Find the allotment reference number

This is an important number you will need to check the status of your ipo allotment. It will be printed on your IPO application form when you applied for the shares. It may also have been sent to you via email or text message by your broker. This number is unique to your IPO application.


Step 2: Visit the registrar's website

Every IPO will have a registrar appointed to it. The registrar handles the share allotment process. Visit the registrar's website and look for the 'IPO Status' section. Popular registrars include Link Intime, Karvy Fintech, Bigshare Services, Kfin Technologies etc. Their websites can be easily found through a web search.


Step 3: Enter your details

On the IPO status page, you need to enter details like the allotment reference number, your PAN number, application number etc. The required info will be mentioned on the page. Make sure to enter the details accurately.


Step 4: Check the allotment status

After entering the required details, you will be able to see the status of your IPO application. The status can be one of the following:

  1. Application Successful - Shares allotted. It will show how many shares you have received.

  2. Pending - Application still being processed

  3. Failed/Rejected - No shares allotted

  4. Technical Rejection - Application rejected due to incomplete details

  5. Refund processed - Application unsuccessful, refund initiated

The allotment status will help you know if your IPO application was successful and shares were allotted to you. In case it failed, the reason for rejection may also be specified.


Step 5: Download the allotment letter

Once shares are allotted to you, you can download the 'Confirmation of Allocation Note'. It will mention the number of shares allotted and details of when to make the payment. Keep this letter safe as proof of your share allotment.


Checking your IPO allotment status online is easy and convenient. With the registrar's website, you can get the latest update on your IPO application within a few minutes. Knowing the status helps you decide the next steps - making payment if shares are allotted, or applying again in case your application failed. Regularly check for status updates after the IPO share allotment process begins.
