The initial public offer (IPO) of Shree Pushkar Chemicals and Fertilisers Ltd, which is engaged in manufacturing and trading of dyes intermediates, covered one-third of the distance at the end of the day 1, data compiled by stock exchanges show.

On Tuesday, 33 per cent of the issue was subscribed, led by non-institutional investors (corporates and HNIs) whose portion got oversubscribed. While retail investors bid for 11per cent of the shares reserved for them, institutional investors bid for 6 per cent of their portion of the issue.

The company had raised Rs 5 crore ($750,000) in its pre-IPO round of funding from Unifi, a domestic hedge fund registered under SEBI's AIF norms, among a few other entities.
