How Is the Basis of Allotment Decided?

The basis of allotment follows SEBI’s standard framework and is the same across mainboard IPOs, including ESDS. In the retail category, if the issue is oversubscribed, allotment is done through a computerised lottery (draw of lots), so each successful applicant gets at least one full lot rather than a partial allocation. In the NII and QIB categories, allotment is proportionate to the shares bid for, subject to the rounding rules the registrar applies when a category is oversubscribed.

What Happens If You’re Not Allotted Shares?

If you don’t receive an allotment in the ESDS Software Solution IPO, the ASBA amount blocked in your bank account is unblocked automatically — no separate refund request is needed. This is expected around Thursday, 3 September 2026, the same day allotted shares are credited to successful applicants’ demat accounts. If you applied through a payment mode other than ASBA, the actual refund follows the same T+2 timeline.

What Will ESDS Do With the IPO Proceeds?

ESDS Software Solution’s IPO is entirely a fresh issue, so the full ₹720 crore raised goes to the company itself rather than to any selling shareholder; there is no OFS component splitting off part of the proceeds. Per the RHP, roughly ₹576 crore is earmarked for purchasing and installing cloud computing equipment and other infrastructure for the company’s data centres, with the remainder set aside for general corporate purposes.

Who Is ESDS Software Solution Limited?

ESDS Software Solution was started informally in November 2003 by Piyush Somani and a group of friends as a web-hosting support business run out of a kindergarten centre in Nashik, and was formally registered as ESDS Software Solution in 2005. After a difficult pivot around 2006 when the original client base shrank, the company moved into building and operating its own data centre infrastructure, launching its first facility in 2010 and a larger Mumbai data centre in 2016. Today ESDS operates as an AI-enabled, end-to-end IT services provider running five Tier-III data centre facilities across India, offering managed cloud hosting, data centre colocation, and cybersecurity services to clients spanning BFSI, government, and enterprise sectors. The company’s promoters are Piyush Prakashchandra Somani, Komal Piyush Somani, and the P.O. Somani Family Trust.
