Skyways Air Services IPO Day 4 Final Subscription Status
The verified post-close Day 4 final subscription data shows demand was strongest in the NII category, which finished at 43.28 times. Retail investors subscribed their reserved portion 16.85 times, while QIB demand increased substantially on the closing day to 4.53 times.
| Investor category | Day 4 final subscription |
| Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) | 4.53x |
| Non-Institutional Investors (NIIs) | 43.28x |
| Retail Individual Investors (RIIs) | 16.85x |
| Overall | 19.01x |
The final result was therefore broad across the three main investor categories, although the subscription multiple was clearly highest among NIIs.
These figures measure the quantity of shares bid for relative to shares available in each category. They do not represent the number of unique applicants. Category allocation also affects subscription multiples, so a higher multiple should not be interpreted in isolation.
Final Day-wise Subscription Trend
Skyways Air Services IPO demand built progressively over the four-day bidding period before accelerating on the closing day.
| Bidding stage | Overall subscription | Leading category |
| Day 1 close | 1.16x | Retail, 1.65x |
| Day 2 close | 2.46x | Retail, 3.54x |
| Day 3 close | 5.08x | Retail, 6.92x |
| Day 4 Final | 19.01x | NII, 43.28x |
Overall subscription rose from 5.08 times at the Day 3 close to 19.01 times in the Day 4 final subscription, an increase of 13.93 times.
The composition also shifted. Retail had led through Day 3, but NII bidding accelerated sharply on the closing day and finished as the most subscribed category. QIB demand, which had remained below full subscription through Day 3, also moved above 1 time and ended at 4.53 times.
Skyways Air Services IPO GMP Today and Estimated Listing Price
The latest available Skyways Air Services IPO GMP reference is ₹46 per share, compared with about ₹41 on 26 August 2026.
At the upper issue price of ₹138:
Indicative price = ₹138 + ₹46 = ₹184
GMP percentage = ₹46 ÷ ₹138 × 100 = 33.3%
This produces an indicative price of approximately ₹184 per share, or 33.3% above the upper price band.
GMP trackers are not fully aligned. Another current tracker has quoted around ₹42, so the ₹46 figure should be treated as a recent reference rather than a universal grey-market price.
GMP is unofficial, unregulated, and can change quickly before listing. It is not published by SEBI, NSE, or BSE, and it does not guarantee the eventual listing price or gains.
What Stands Out in Today’s Bidding
The clearest signal is the sharp closing-day increase in formal demand. Overall subscription rose from 5.08 times after Day 3 to 19.01 times in the Day 4 final subscription, with NIIs providing the strongest category response.
QIB participation also changed materially. Institutional demand had remained below 1 time during the earlier bidding days but finished at 4.53 times, making the final demand profile broader than the interim data suggested.
Two limitations remain important. First, subscription multiples do not establish whether the IPO is fairly valued or whether the company will deliver strong long-term returns. Second, the positive GMP is an unofficial sentiment indicator and can move independently of subscription demand.
