The quota reserved for retail bidders was subscribed 10.76 times, whereas HNI quote fetched 3.87 times bids. The allocations for institutional bidders was subscribed a little more than two times.

Analysts were skeptical over the issue following the muted financials, negative bottomline, pricey valuations, tepid growth and high competition in the education sector.
