Aditya Infotech's Rs 1,300 crore Initial Public Offering (IPO) opened for subscription today, July 29. On the opening day of bidding, the IPO saw an overall subscription of 78%, driven by robust interest from retail investors, whose portion was subscribed 2.81 times. The company has set a price band of Rs 640 to Rs 675 per share. The IPO is a purely fresh issue, consisting of 1.93 crore equity shares. In the grey market, the IPO is commanding a premium that suggests a potential listing gain of around 38.5%.

The retail investor portion saw strong interest, being subscribed 2.81 times, while the Non-Institutional Investor (NII) category was subscribed 1.5 times. However, no bids have been recorded yet from Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs).
The IPO, which opened on July 29, will close on July 31. It is tentatively scheduled to be listed on August 5, 2025, on both the BSE and NSE.
The grey market premium (GMP) for the IPO is approximately Rs 260 over the issue price of Rs 675, indicating that shares are trading unofficially at around Rs 935 ahead of listing. This reflects an estimated listing premium of about 38.5%, suggesting strong investor sentiment and expectations of a solid debut on the stock exchanges. The GMP serves as an informal indicator of market demand before the shares are officially listed.

ADVERTISEMENT Between FY22 and FY24, the company's revenue grew at a CAGR of 24%, from Rs 2,090 crore to Rs 3,212 crore. PAT grew from Rs 102 crore in FY22 to Rs 210 crore in FY24.EBITDA margins improved slightly from 9.6% to 10.7% over the same period. However, analysts note that the business remains working capital intensive and exposed to global supply chain risks.
ADVERTISEMENT At the upper price band of Rs 675, Aditya Infotech is valued at a P/E of 36.2x on FY24 earnings, which is at a premium to industry peers like Redington and Ingram Micro. The IPO aims to raise funds primarily for working capital needs (Rs 600 crore), with the rest for general corporate purposes.
Brokerage firm Bajaj Broking has rated the IPO as 'Subscribe with Caution'. While acknowledging the company's strong brand partnerships, consistent growth, and deep distribution network, the note flags its high valuation and moderate return ratios (RoE 22%, RoCE 20%) as concerns.

I managed to cut Rs 6,000 restaurant food bill by 42% by using this food app and credit card discount; Here's how I cracked the deal

Several food apps, including Zomato and Dine-out, are offering dine-in discounts at restaurants, with some discounts reaching up to 50% . The coolest thing about these offers is that they apply to both popular family restaurants and cozy little cafes. Taking advantage of one of these deals, this correspondent along with six friends, visited a premium family restaurant called The Tandoori Village located in the DLF Mall of India, Noida Film City. We booked a table for seven through the Zomato app. By using the full offer benefits, we enjoyed lunch and managed to save 42% on our total bill ever after covering the optional service charge and convenience fees. We paid Rs 3423. The dishes and drinks we ordered, totaling Rs 5,994, were: Particulars Quantity Price Mineral Water 2 Rs 220 Dahi ke Kebab 1 Rs 545 Tandoori Bharwa Aloo 1 Rs 545 Dal Makhani 1 Rs 495 Subz Miloni 1 Rs 545 Rara Murg 1 Rs 645 Butter Roti 4 Rs 320 Lachcha Paratha 3 Rs 345 Stuffed Paratha 1 Rs 185 Kulfi 2 Rs 690 Roasted/Fried Papad 2 Rs 110 Paneer Hyderabadi 1 Rs 545 Total including Rs 519 service charge and Rs 285.46 GST - Rs 5994 Here's the deal using which we saved 42% on our total food bill of Rs 5994 Here's a step-by-step walk-through on how we nailed the deal: Step 1: Initially, this correspondent searched for restaurant dine-in deals on the Zomato app in Delhi-NCR. Once a suitable restaurant was found, we reserved a table for seven and paid a cover charge of Rs 175. This cover charge was deducted from the final bill at the restaurant, so it's not really an extra fee. As can be seen from the screenshot below, the Zomato app indicated that if we settled the final bill through their platform, they would offer a flat 35% discount. We reached the restaurant and settled down at our table with a stunning view of the outside. Zomato Source: Zomato app Step 2: We placed our usual order for food and beverages. The total came to Rs 5,994, which included a service charge of Rs 519 and Rs 285.46 for Goods and Services Tax (GST). We told the restaurant's manager that we would like to pay via the food aggregator's App. Step 3: We entered the bill of Rs 5,994 and hit the 'Proceed to cart' button. A new mobile page popped up, showing our final bill as Rs 3,721.1. We applied for a HSBC credit card discount of up to 12%. This brought the bill down by Rs 446.53. So, the total came to Rs 3274.57. However, Zomato applied a convenience fee of Rs 149, which raised our final bill to Rs 3,423.57. In total, we ended up paying Rs 3423.57 for a restaurant bill of Rs 5,994. In percentage terms it comes to Rs 5994-3423.57/5994*100= Rs 2570.43/5994*100= 42.883%The final bill included a service charge of Rs 519 and Rs 285.46 in GST Zomato Source: Zomato app Similar deals in other restaurants on Zomato and Dine-out by Swiggy These restaurant deals are offered by the food aggregators at their discretion and are subject to change as per their policy. Some restaurant discounts might be available only during specified hours like off-peak hours. So do re-check the deal before dining out at the restaurants. Also remember that the discounts can be restaurant-specific even if it's a national restaurant deals were available on July 28, 2025, and were checked by this correspondent.
