In its second effort to make a Dalal Street debut, Sai Silk (Kalamandir) aimed to raise a total of Rs 1,201 crore from its primary offering.

The qualified institutional bidders' (QIBs) allocation was booked 12.17 times, while the portion for non-institutional investors was subscribed 2.54 times.

Grey market premium (GMP) of Sai Silk (Kalamandir) has remained dull for the entire bidding process.
