IPO Allotment Status — Check It in Two Minutes
Direct links and exact steps for every major registrar — MUFG Intime (formerly Link Intime), KFin Technologies and Bigshare — plus the BSE fallback that works for most issues.
When to check: the T+3 allotment clock
Since SEBI moved Indian IPOs to a T+3 listing cycle, the schedule after an issue closes is tight and predictable:
T+1 — Basis of allotment
The registrar runs the computerised lottery and finalises who gets shares, usually by the evening of the first working day after close. Status goes live on the registrar's website the same evening or early next morning.
T+2 — Credits and refunds
Allotted shares are credited to demat accounts; UPI mandates for unsuccessful applications are released. If you were allotted, the shares appear in your broker's holdings (often tagged as non-tradeable until listing).
T+3 — Listing day
The stock debuts in a special pre-open session and starts trading around 10:00 AM. Whatever you plan to do on listing day, decide it the night before — debut prices move fast in the first minutes.
Live example from our tracker: Hexagon Nutrition closed 9 June 2026 → allotment 10 June → demat credit 11 June → listing today, 12 June. For current issue dates, see the IPO Calendar.
Step-by-step: check allotment with each registrar
Every IPO appoints exactly one registrar — it is named in the prospectus and on our IPO pages (Turtlemint's registrar, for instance, is KFin Technologies). Use that registrar's checker; the others will not have your application.
MUFG Intime India (formerly Link Intime)
- Open the MUFG Intime public-issue status page: in.mpms.mufg.com → Public Issues (older bookmarks at linkintime.co.in redirect here).
- Select the company name from the dropdown — it appears only once allotment is finalised.
- Choose how to identify yourself: PAN (fastest), Application Number, or DP ID/Client ID.
- Enter the value, complete the captcha and submit. The page shows shares applied vs shares allotted.
KFin Technologies
- Open ipostatus.kfintech.com (also reachable via kfintech.com → Investor Services → IPO Status).
- Select the IPO from the dropdown list.
- Pick PAN, Application Number or DP ID/Client ID, enter the value and the captcha, and submit.
- KFin sometimes lists multiple server links (Link 1/2/3) around result time — they all serve the same data; try another if one is overloaded.
Bigshare Services
- Open ipo.bigshareonline.com — common registrar for SME issues.
- Select the company, choose PAN or Application Number, complete the captcha and search.
BSE — works as a fallback for most IPOs
- Open the BSE application-status page: bseindia.com → Investors → Status of Issue Application.
- Choose issue type "Equity", select the issue name, and enter your Application Number plus PAN.
- Submit to see your application and allotment status. NSE offers a similar facility for registered users at nseindia.com.
Registrar sites are slammed in the first hours after allotment is finalised. If the page times out, wait twenty minutes — or check the quiet way: your bank's UPI mandate (released = not allotted) or your demat holdings on T+2 (shares visible = allotted).
Why you keep seeing "not allotted" — the maths
When the retail portion of an IPO is oversubscribed, SEBI rules require allotment by lottery, and every retail applicant — whether they bid one lot or thirteen — competes for one lot in that lottery. In a 50x-subscribed retail book, roughly one application in fifty wins. Hexagon Nutrition's 53.68x overall subscription in June 2026 means most applicants walked away empty-handed, by design rather than by bad luck.
That has two practical consequences. First, never judge an application "failed" — an un-allotted application costs you nothing but a few days of blocked funds. Second, the only legitimate ways to improve your odds are structural, not tactical: more PAN-distinct applications across family members, bidding at cut-off, and avoiding technical rejections. We cover all of them in IPO Allotment Tips.
After the result
If you were allotted
- Shares hit your demat account on T+2 and become tradeable when the stock lists on T+3.
- Decide your listing-day plan in advance: book the debut pop, set a stop, or hold on the original thesis. The final GMP is a sentiment hint, not a commitment — CMR Green Technologies listed 43.44% up in June 2026, beating its ~35% GMP, while other issues have listed below theirs.
- Remember listing-gain taxation: profits on shares sold within a year are short-term capital gains.
If you were not allotted
- The UPI block releases by T+2 — confirm in your bank app, not the broker app.
- If the block persists past T+2, complain to your bank citing the mandate, then to your broker, then escalate via SEBI's SCORES portal if unresolved.
- Plan the next application: the calendar shows what opens next; Turtlemint (19–23 June) is the next mainboard window as of our data date.
Allotment status FAQs
When is IPO allotment finalised?
Under SEBI's T+3 listing timeline, the basis of allotment is normally finalised one working day after the issue closes (T+1). Demat credits and refunds follow on T+2, and the stock lists on T+3. Hexagon Nutrition in June 2026 ran exactly on this clock: closed 9 June, allotment 10 June, demat credit 11 June, listing 12 June.
What do I need to check my IPO allotment status?
Any one of three identifiers works on the registrar's page: your PAN (easiest), your application number (from the broker's confirmation or the UPI mandate), or your demat account's DP ID/Client ID. Select the IPO name from the dropdown, enter one identifier, complete the captcha and submit.
My money is still blocked but I was not allotted. What now?
UPI applications are not debited — the amount is only blocked under a mandate. If you are not allotted, the block is released by your bank, normally by T+2. If it persists beyond that, raise it first with your bank (the mandate sits with them), then with your broker, citing your application number.
Does checking allotment status early improve my chances?
No. Allotment is already decided by a computerised lottery conducted under exchange supervision before the registrar publishes the status. Checking early, late or repeatedly changes nothing — it is purely a lookup. What can move your odds before you apply is covered in IPO Allotment Tips.
