People can bid for the shares until 26 August 2026.
Each share is priced between ₹938 and ₹988.
Investors must apply for at least one group of 15 shares.
The company hopes to raise ₹1,757 crore through new shares and shares sold by existing holders.
In the grey market, the shares are reportedly trading ₹411 above the top IPO price.
This suggests a possible strong listing, but grey-market prices are not guaranteed.
One analyst has recommended applying for the IPO for the long term.
