Similarly, Sharma, the Bollywood actress, invested ₹50 lakh in the company, purchasing 66,667 shares at the same unit price. At the upper price band, Kohli stands to gain ₹5.25 crore, while Sharma’s profit is estimated at ₹1.31 crore, culminating in a combined profit of ₹6.56 crore for the power couple.
The upcoming ₹2,615 crore IPO of Go Digit is scheduled to open for subscription on May 15 and close on May 17, with a price band ranging from ₹258 to ₹272 per share. The issue comprises a fresh issue of shares worth ₹1,125 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of 54,766,392 shares. The IPO allocation reserves 75% for QIBs, 15% for non-institutional investors, and 10% for retail investors.
Go Digit shares are currently commanding a grey market premium of ₹50, indicating investor optimism and a potential listing price of ₹322, which is 18.39% higher than the IPO price of ₹272.
