What are the advantages and disadvantages to applying for NII quota?
Pros | Cons |
NIIs may apply for more than Rs 2. lakhs in an IPO. | Retail investors are not eligible to receive the price discount for NIIs. |
NIIs do not need to register with SEBI. | When compared to RII (35%), the reserved allocation (15%) is lower. This reduces the chance of allocation in cases of oversubscription. |
NIIs may withdraw from an IPO prior to the date of allotment. |
15% is the reserved allocation for NIIs, which is the lowest of the three investor categories in an IPO. QIB holds 50%, while RIIs hold 35%. In an oversubscribed IPO, there are lower chances of allocation. Trusts, corporate bodies, and many other institutions also fall under the NII category. It is a highly competitive pool for allotment.
