Overall, the IPO was subscribed 2.74 times.
Non-institutional investors showed the strongest demand.
The shares are being offered at Rs 750 to Rs 788 each.
A minimum lot has 19 shares and costs Rs 14,972 at the highest price.
The grey market suggests a possible listing price of Rs 1,098.
However, grey market prices are unofficial, so the actual listing price may be different.

Non-institutional investors led demand at 3.97 times, followed by retail investors at 2.79 times and QIBs at 1.76 times.

The price band is Rs 750-Rs 788 per share, and one 19-share lot requires Rs 14,972 at the upper band.
A 39% grey market premium implies an estimated listing price of Rs 1,098, but GMP is unofficial and may change.

Brokerage research firm commenting on Augmont Enterprises IPO valuation
“At Rs 788, Augmont is valued at ~19.5x FY26 P/E and 7.1x P/B, reflecting its strong growth and return profile. Its proprietary 14-year price discovery engine, NSE-authorised EGR partnership, rapidly expanding 49.62 million retail consumer base, and debt-free balance sheet position it as a rare, scaled and profitable gold fintech platform.”

“At the upper price band, based on annualized FY26 earnings, the issue is valued at 20.6x P/E and 18.3x FY26 EV/EBITDA, implying a post-issue market capitalisation of Rs 7200.2 crore, making the issue fully priced.”
