Yashhtej Industries IPO Allotment Status and Key Subscription Highlights
The Yashhtej Industries IPO has entered a crucial phase as investors look up their allotment status following the close of subscription. This SME IPO opened for public subscription on 18 February 2026 and concluded on 20 February 2026 with solid overall demand. On its last day of bidding, the issue recorded total subscription of about 1.37 times, reflecting notable interest across investor categories, with retail bidders showing particularly strong participation.

Investors who applied for the IPO are able to check the allotment status online from 23 February 2026, which is the designated basis of allotment date. To find the allotment outcome, applicants can visit the registrar’s portal or the BSE SME website, and use details such as PAN, application number, or Demat account number. If shares are allotted, they will be credited to the investor’s Demat account by 24 February 2026, with refunds processed on the same day for those who do not receive an allotment. The IPO is then scheduled to list on the BSE SME on 25 February 2026.

The IPO was a fixed‑price issue priced at ₹110 per equity share, with each share carrying a face value of ₹10. The total issue size was approximately ₹88.88 crore, comprising a fresh issue raised entirely to support the company’s growth and working capital needs. Retail investors faced a minimum investment requirement of around ₹2,64,000, corresponding to a market lot of 2,400 shares. The issue did not include a Qualified Institutional Buyer (QIB) category, with 50% of shares reserved for retail investors and the remaining 50% allocated to non‑institutional investors.

In the grey market, sentiment ahead of listing has pointed to favourable expectations. Informal market data showed a grey market premium (GMP) near ₹19 per share, suggesting expectations that the shares could trade at a price around ₹129 or higher once listed. This GMP level represents a potential premium of nearly 17% over the issue price. Grey market premiums, while unofficial, can offer insight into early investor sentiment and anticipated listing performance.
Yashhtej Industries operates primarily in the agribusiness and edible oils sector. Its core business involves manufacturing and processing soybean crude oil through solvent extraction and producing Soybean De‑Oiled Cake (DOC), which is widely used in the animal feed industry due to its high protein content. The company operates a business‑to‑business (B2B) model, supplying crude oil and DOC to refineries and animal nutrition manufacturers. Additionally, the firm has expanded into solar power generation, enhancing its operational diversification and sustainability focus.
The IPO proceeds are planned to be utilised for several purposes, including capital expenditure, funding working capital requirements and general corporate purposes. These investments aim to strengthen the company’s production capabilities and support future expansion into integrated segments of the edible oils value chain.
Subscription trends revealed that the retail segment was the most active, reflecting confidence among individual investors despite the relatively high minimum investment amount required. Non‑institutional investor bids were also present, though to a lesser extent, while institutional participation was absent—as expected for an SME issue.
With allotment finalised and listing now imminent, investors will soon know whether they have secured shares in this agribusiness venture. Given its performance in the grey market and subscription metrics, many are anticipating a strong debut on the BSE SME platform when trading begins on 25 February 2026.
