Tempsens Instruments IPO - Day 3 Subscription Status
As of the close of bidding on August 24, 2026, the Tempsens Instruments IPO stood at 165.72 times overall subscription, with bids for 2,51,58,45,400 shares against 1,51,81,667 shares on offer. Non-Institutional Investors led all categories at 305.50 times, followed closely by Qualified Institutional Buyers at 253.92 times, Employees at 113.53 times, and Retail Individual Investors at 55.75 times.
What Day 3 Numbers Indicate
The exceptionally strong QIB and NII response — both crossing 250 times subscription — is consistent with the final-day surge typical of mainboard IPOs, where institutional and high-net-worth investors place the bulk of their bids after gauging retail sentiment through the earlier sessions. Within the NII category, the above-₹10-lakh bracket (324.11x) outpaced the ₹2–10 lakh bracket (268.27x), pointing to particularly aggressive participation from larger applicants. Retail subscription at 55.75 times, while more modest by comparison, still reflects robust individual investor interest, with the bulk of retail bids coming in at cut-off price — a pattern consistent with strong appetite for a company that holds a leading position in India's temperature sensing and industrial heating solutions space.

Should You Apply for Tempsens Instruments IPO?
Incorporated in 1990 and headquartered in Vadodara, Gujarat, Tempsens Instruments is the largest manufacturer of contact and non-contact temperature sensors in India by revenue, and one of the largest manufacturers of electrical heaters in the country, with a strong focus on indigenisation that has created high entry barriers for competitors. The company operates across three verticals: temperature sensing solutions (thermocouples, resistance temperature detectors, infrared pyrometers), electrical heating solutions (industrial heaters and furnaces), and specialised cables (power, control, and instrumentation cables), largely on a make-to-order basis for demanding industries such as steel, petrochemicals, cement, power generation, and glass manufacturing. Revenue stood at ₹444.88 crore in FY26, with profit after tax of ₹71.07 crore, up from ₹62.56 crore in FY25, and a conservative debt-to-equity ratio of 0.15.
Investors considering the issue should weigh the company's market leadership, indigenisation-driven entry barriers, and healthy balance sheet against sector-specific risks such as customer concentration in cyclical industrial segments and dependence on capital expenditure cycles in steel, cement, and petrochemical industries. As with any IPO, the decision should be based on individual risk appetite, investment horizon, and a review of the RHP rather than subscription numbers alone.
