While retail investors showed healthy interest, non-institutional investor (NII) demand remained muted, limiting momentum in the final stretch of bidding. The issue, priced at \u20b9110 per share under a fixed-price structure, is scheduled to list on the BSE SME platform on February 25, 2026.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"767\" data-end=\"956\">With grey market premium (GMP) cooling to zero on the final day of subscription, near-term listing expectations appear restrained, reflecting a cautious tone rather than speculative frenzy.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"963\" data-end=\"981\">IPO Snapshot<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"983\" data-end=\"1399\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.niftytrader.in\/ipo\/yashhtej-industries-india-ipo\">Yashhtej Industries (India) IPO<\/a> is a fixed-price issue aggregating \u20b988.88 crore, entirely comprising a fresh issue of shares. Unlike book-built issues where pricing is discovered through investor bidding, fixed-price offerings provide clarity upfront but typically attract measured participation. The issue is priced at \u20b9110 per share, with a lot size of 1,200 shares, making the minimum retail investment \u20b92,64,000.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1401\" data-end=\"1679\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.niftytrader.in\/ipo\">IPO<\/a> is being managed by <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Erudore Capital Private Limited<\/span><\/span>, while the registrar to the issue is <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">MAS Services Ltd.<\/span><\/span>. The shares are set to be listed on the BSE SME platform, where liquidity conditions often differ significantly from mainboard exchanges.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1681\" data-end=\"1842\">Given the SME nature of the issue, investors should factor in potential volatility and lower post-listing trading volumes compared to larger capitalisation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.niftytrader.in\/ipo\">IPOs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1069\" data-end=\"1099\">IPO Key Details at a Glance<\/h2>\n<ul data-start=\"1101\" data-end=\"1546\">\n<li data-start=\"1101\" data-end=\"1141\">\n<p data-start=\"1103\" data-end=\"1141\">IPO Open Date: February 18, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1142\" data-end=\"1183\">\n<p data-start=\"1144\" data-end=\"1183\">IPO Close Date: February 20, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1184\" data-end=\"1237\">\n<p data-start=\"1186\" data-end=\"1237\">Allotment Date (Tentative): February 23, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1238\" data-end=\"1289\">\n<p data-start=\"1240\" data-end=\"1289\">Listing Date (Tentative): February 25, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1290\" data-end=\"1325\">\n<p data-start=\"1292\" data-end=\"1325\">Issue Type: Fixed Price IPO<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1326\" data-end=\"1359\">\n<p data-start=\"1328\" data-end=\"1359\">Listing Platform: BSE SME<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1360\" data-end=\"1417\">\n<p data-start=\"1362\" data-end=\"1417\">Total Issue Size: 80,79,600 shares (\u20b988.88 crore)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1418\" data-end=\"1478\">\n<p data-start=\"1420\" data-end=\"1478\">Market Maker Reservation: 4,04,400 shares (\u20b94 crore)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1479\" data-end=\"1546\">\n<p data-start=\"1481\" data-end=\"1546\">Net Offered to Public: 76,75,200 shares (\u20b984 crore approx.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 data-start=\"1849\" data-end=\"1876\">Subscription Dynamics<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1878\" data-end=\"2238\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.niftytrader.in\/ipo\">IPO<\/a> closed with an overall subscription of 1.28 times, reflecting modest aggregate demand. Retail investors subscribed 2.18 times their allotted quota, indicating meaningful interest in the issue at current pricing levels. However, NII participation remained weak at just 0.38 times subscription, signaling limited conviction among higher-ticket investors.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2240\" data-end=\"2572\">In SME IPOs, strong HNI\/NII demand often drives aggressive listing premiums due to leverage participation and speculative flows. The relatively low NII interest here suggests that the issue may not witness sharp post-listing volatility driven by leveraged positioning. Instead, price discovery could be gradual and liquidity-driven.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2574\" data-end=\"2706\">The demand profile indicates retail support but lacks institutional conviction, placing the IPO in a balanced but non-euphoric zone.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2389\" data-end=\"2438\">Subscription Status: IPO Subscribed 1.28 Times<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2440\" data-end=\"2520\">As of February 20, 2026 (Day 3), the IPO has been subscribed 1.28 times overall.<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"2522\" data-end=\"2663\">\n<li data-start=\"2522\" data-end=\"2570\">\n<p data-start=\"2524\" data-end=\"2570\">Retail Category: 2.18 times subscription<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2571\" data-end=\"2616\">\n<p data-start=\"2573\" data-end=\"2616\">NII Category: 0.38 times subscription<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2617\" data-end=\"2663\">\n<p data-start=\"2619\" data-end=\"2663\">Market Maker Portion: Fully subscribed<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 data-start=\"2713\" data-end=\"2750\">Grey Market Premium (GMP) Trend<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2752\" data-end=\"3041\">The grey market premium for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.niftytrader.in\/ipo\/yashhtej-industries-india-ipo\">Yashhtej Industries<\/a> initially saw momentum, touching \u20b923 earlier in the subscription period, which implied potential listing gains of nearly 20%. However, the GMP steadily declined over subsequent sessions and ultimately fell to \u20b90 by the close of subscription.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3043\" data-end=\"3310\">This cooling trend typically reflects diminishing speculative appetite or lack of strong demand build-up. A flat GMP suggests that informal market participants are not pricing in a premium at listing, increasing the probability of a neutral or near-issue-price debut.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3312\" data-end=\"3501\">While GMP is not an official indicator and should not be treated as a guaranteed predictor of listing performance, its sharp reversal from \u20b923 to \u20b90 does signal fading near-term enthusiasm.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3020\" data-end=\"3060\">The day-wise GMP trend shows volatility:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"3062\" data-end=\"3123\">\n<li data-start=\"3062\" data-end=\"3082\">\n<p data-start=\"3064\" data-end=\"3082\">February 18: \u20b923<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"3083\" data-end=\"3103\">\n<p data-start=\"3085\" data-end=\"3103\">February 19: \u20b915<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"3104\" data-end=\"3123\">\n<p data-start=\"3106\" data-end=\"3123\">February 20: \u20b90<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 data-start=\"3508\" data-end=\"3530\">Company Overview<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"3532\" data-end=\"3853\">Incorporated in 2018, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.niftytrader.in\/ipo\/yashhtej-industries-india-ipo\">Yashhtej Industries (India) Limited<\/a> operates in the agro-processing segment, primarily engaged in the extraction and processing of soybean crude oil through solvent extraction. It also manufactures Soybean De-Oiled Cake (DOC), a protein-rich by-product widely used in animal feed and export markets.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3855\" data-end=\"4127\">The company operates predominantly in a B2B business model, supplying crude oil to refiners rather than participating directly in consumer-facing activities. This structure ties revenues closely to commodity cycles and processing spreads rather than branded pricing power.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4129\" data-end=\"4419\">Additionally, the company has diversified into solar power generation, adding a renewable energy dimension to its operations. While this segment may enhance long-term energy cost efficiency, its current revenue contribution remains relatively limited compared to core processing operations.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"4426\" data-end=\"4464\">Key Considerations for Investors<\/h2>\n<h3 data-start=\"4466\" data-end=\"4503\">1\ufe0f\u20e3 Commodity Price Sensitivity<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"4504\" data-end=\"4760\">Margins in the soybean processing business are influenced by fluctuations in soybean prices, global supply-demand dynamics, and export demand for DOC. Investors should monitor commodity cycles, as volatility in raw material prices can impact profitability.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"4762\" data-end=\"4798\">2\ufe0f\u20e3 SME Liquidity &amp; Volatility<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"4799\" data-end=\"5039\">SME listings often experience sharp price swings in initial sessions due to limited free float and thinner trading volumes. While this can create short-term opportunities, it also increases downside risk in case of weak post-listing demand.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"5041\" data-end=\"5086\">3\ufe0f\u20e3 Capital Deployment from Fresh Issue<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"5087\" data-end=\"5303\">As the IPO consists entirely of fresh capital, monitoring how effectively the company deploys funds for capacity expansion, working capital, or debt reduction will be crucial in evaluating medium-term value creation.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"5310\" data-end=\"5340\">IPO Timeline &amp; Allotment<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"5342\" data-end=\"5599\">The IPO opened on February 18, 2026 and closed on February 20, 2026. Allotment is expected to be finalized on February 23, with refunds and credit of shares scheduled for February 24. Listing on the BSE SME platform is tentatively set for February 25, 2026.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5601\" data-end=\"5764\">Investors can check allotment status on the registrar\u2019s website by entering their PAN, application number, or demat account details once the allotment is declared.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"4363\" data-end=\"4378\">IPO Timeline<\/h3>\n<ul data-start=\"4380\" data-end=\"4617\">\n<li data-start=\"4380\" data-end=\"4412\">\n<p data-start=\"4382\" data-end=\"4412\">IPO Opens: February 18, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4413\" data-end=\"4446\">\n<p data-start=\"4415\" data-end=\"4446\">IPO Closes: February 20, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4447\" data-end=\"4492\">\n<p data-start=\"4449\" data-end=\"4492\">Allotment Finalization: February 23, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4493\" data-end=\"4533\">\n<p data-start=\"4495\" data-end=\"4533\">Refund Initiation: February 24, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4534\" data-end=\"4581\">\n<p data-start=\"4536\" data-end=\"4581\">Shares Credited to Demat: February 24, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4582\" data-end=\"4617\">\n<p data-start=\"4584\" data-end=\"4617\">Listing Date: February 25, 2026<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-start=\"5477\" data-end=\"5513\">Merchant Bankers and Market Maker<\/h3>\n<ul data-start=\"5515\" data-end=\"5670\">\n<li data-start=\"5515\" data-end=\"5581\">\n<p data-start=\"5517\" data-end=\"5581\">Book Running Lead Manager: Erudore Capital Private Limited<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"5582\" data-end=\"5617\">\n<p data-start=\"5584\" data-end=\"5617\">Registrar: MAS Services Ltd<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"5618\" data-end=\"5670\">\n<p data-start=\"5620\" data-end=\"5670\">Market Maker: Prabhat Financial Services Ltd<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-start=\"4624\" data-end=\"4656\">How to Check Allotment Status<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"4658\" data-end=\"4741\">Investors can check IPO allotment status through the registrar MAS Services Ltd by:<\/p>\n<ol data-start=\"4743\" data-end=\"4978\">\n<li data-start=\"4743\" data-end=\"4805\">\n<p data-start=\"4746\" data-end=\"4805\">Visiting the official IPO allotment page of MAS Services.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4806\" data-end=\"4874\">\n<p data-start=\"4809\" data-end=\"4874\">Selecting \u201cYashhtej Industries (India)\u201d from the dropdown list.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4875\" data-end=\"4930\">\n<p data-start=\"4878\" data-end=\"4930\">Entering PAN, Application Number, or DP Client ID.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"4931\" data-end=\"4978\">\n<p data-start=\"4934\" data-end=\"4978\">Clicking \u201cSearch\u201d to view allotment details.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 data-start=\"5771\" data-end=\"5788\">Bottom Line<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"5790\" data-end=\"6004\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.niftytrader.in\/ipo\/yashhtej-industries-india-ipo\">Yashhtej Industries\u2019 IPO<\/a> reflects moderate demand, supported by retail investors but lacking strong NII participation.
