Chanakya Subscription Barometer
Chanakya Subscription Barometer is your daily, data-driven pulse check on how India’s IPO market is truly behaving beneath the surface. We do not just report subscription numbers — we decode investor psychology, QIB timing behaviour, HNI leverage patterns, retail momentum, and emerging grey-market signals. Each analysis blends hard data with Chanakya’s three-decade expertise to reveal whether an IPO is institutionally backed, operator-supported, or retail-driven hype.
This proprietary Barometer helps serious investors understand real demand, real sentiment, and real listing expectations — beyond the headline numbers.

🧠 Chanakya Master Insight (Why This Barometer Matters)
-
RII-led IPOs → Sentiment-driven, GMP sensitive
-
NII-led IPOs → Leverage-driven, listing volatility higher
-
QIB-led IPOs → Allocation confidence, but listing depends on GMP
-
Balanced books → Most stable post-listing behaviour
Chanakya Take:
Headline oversubscription hides the real story.
The source of money matters more than the quantity of money.
