The allotment for Kross Limited IPO is expected to be finalized today. Investors can check their allotment status through the registrar, Kfin Technologies Limited, or the BSE website. The IPO, which was opened for subscription from September 9 to September 11, saw a healthy response from investors, being oversubscribed by 17.66 times. Specifically, the non-institutional investor (NII) segment was oversubscribed 23.40 times, while the retail portion was oversubscribed 11.26 times. The IPO price was set between ₹228 and ₹240 per share.

Given the high level of retail oversubscription, shares will be allocated to retail individual investors (RIIs) on a proportional basis. Those who do not receive an allotment can expect the refund process to start on September 13, 2024.

Shares allotted will be credited to investors' demat accounts on the same day as the refunds. The mainboard IPO is expected to be listed on the BSE and NSE platforms, with a tentative date of September 16, 2024.

The company plans to use the net proceeds from the IPO for several purposes, including funding capital expenditure for purchasing machinery and equipment, repaying or prepaying certain outstanding borrowings, funding working capital requirements, and covering general corporate purposes.
