Number of Collection counters
I think we have sufficient collection counters allocated for the IPO of Mero Microfinance Bittiya Sanstha Ltd. We have designated some collections counter only for cheques and some for both cash & cheque. We are confident that this would speed up the submission process eliminating long queues.
Availability of application forms
We have dispatched 1.5 lakhs application forms for this particular IPO. We will be printing more forms after we survey the disbursement of forms on the first day. We have no intention to create an artificial shortage of forms. We will also limit the number of forms an individual can buy to limit mass application by an individual or organization which is also in accordance with SEBON's policy.
Predicted Final Collection
It is too early too predict the final collection amount for this IPO. The maximum limit set for an applicant is Rs 10 lakh. We are expecting 1 lakh applicants in this issue as all the forms disbursed are not submitted. Oversubscribing should not be an issue but it is hard to predict the final collection as people react differently to every public issue.
Allotment Timeframe
The allotment time frame will depend on the number of applications we will receive for the IPO. Looking at the present context, I think we will do allotment by the legal minimum set by the law.
