The Jio IPO attracted bids worth Rs 70,000 crore on its first day, exceeding the bid levels recorded for the LIC and NSE issues.
Opening-day response
The scale of bidding places the Jio issue ahead of both the LIC and NSE offerings on the first day of their respective IPO processes. The figure highlights the level of investor participation reported for the offering at the start of its subscription period.
Why the figure matters
Day-one bidding is an early indicator of market interest in a public issue. With Rs 70,000 crore in bids, the Jio IPO has begun with a larger reported response than the LIC and NSE issues.
