Sunshine Pictures IPO Subscription Status Day 3 – Live Updates & Key Details

Sunshine Pictures IPO entered its third and final day of bidding on August 20, 2026. Incorporated in 2007, the company is a technology-driven content production business engaged in originating, creating, developing, producing, marketing, and distributing films, television serials, and web series, managing the entire value chain from script development and production to intellectual property creation, rights monetisation, and content distribution.

This is a ₹282.14 crore IPO, made up of a fresh issue of ₹172.80 crore and an offer for sale of ₹109.34 crore. The company plans to use up to ₹112.50 crore of the fresh issue proceeds for working capital requirements, while the OFS portion goes to existing shareholders selling part of their stake.

Category-wise Breakdown on Day 3

Figures as of 12:30 PM, August 20, 2026 (Day 3, closing day), per NSE data. The issue received bids for 23.27 crore shares against 54.86 lakh shares on offer. Numbers will keep climbing through the rest of the day as bidding wraps up this evening.

What Day 3 Numbers Indicate

NII has gone into overdrive, now at an extraordinary 97.30x, with small HNIs (106.94x) running ahead of big HNIs (92.49x). This kind of surge is classic closing-day behaviour, big-ticket HNI money, often funded through NBFC loans, tends to pile in during the last few hours once investor confidence in a strong listing builds up, and that's exactly what's playing out here.

QIB has also crossed full subscription decisively, now at 12.03x, confirming institutional investors have started placing meaningful bids as the closing hours approach. Retail, while comparatively more measured than NII, is still extremely strong at 39.28x.

With overall subscription already at 42.43x by midday, and several hours of bidding still remaining before tonight's cut-off, this issue is firmly among the most heavily sought-after mainboard IPOs of the current cycle, and the final figure is likely to climb meaningfully further.

Sunshine Pictures IPO Subscription Status – Day 3 & Final

Today marks the close of bidding. With NII already past 97x and retail past 39x by midday, expect the sharpest remaining movement to come from QIB, as institutional investors typically finalise the bulk of their bids only in the last few hours before the cut-off this evening.

Sunshine Pictures IPO - Allotment and Listing Date

Should You Apply for Sunshine Pictures IPO?

A few things worth weighing on the last day:

• It's a mix of fresh issue and offer for sale, with up to ₹112.50 crore of the fresh issue proceeds going toward working capital requirements, while the OFS portion goes to existing shareholders exiting part of their stake.
• FY26 revenue came in at ₹74.44 crore, down 28% year-on-year, though profit after tax rose 16% over the same period, alongside a healthy debt-equity ratio of 0.06.
• The company operates in a project-based content production business, key risks include customer concentration, the unpredictable performance of individual films, and uneven earnings since the financial outcome of a few major releases can materially affect a given year.
• With NII (97.30x), retail (39.28x), and QIB (12.03x) all deep into oversubscribed territory by midday on the final day, allotment across every category is very likely to be decided by lottery, with the odds of getting shares shrinking further as the day progresses.
• Given the scale of demand already visible, this has become one of the most heavily oversubscribed mainboard IPOs of the current cycle.
