IPO subscription data is the times-subscribed figure published by the BSE and NSE for each investor category during the bidding window: the total shares bid divided by the shares offered in that category. A figure of 10x means investors have bid for ten times the shares on offer. The data is computed separately for qualified institutional buyers, non-institutional investors, and retail investors, so a single IPO carries three or more distinct multiples, and reading them apart is the whole skill.
