The Initial Public Offering (IPO) allotment process for Taksar Pikhuwa Khola Hydropower Limited officially concluded today, May 20, 2026. Handled by the designated issue manager, the share distribution was finalized through a lottery system due to a high volume of oversubscription from retail investors.
This public issue marks another step forward for Nepal’s energy sector as more local infrastructure projects turn to the public capital markets for growth funding.
Allotment Breakdown: The Key Numbers
The enthusiasm for primary market issues in Nepal remains strong, as reflected in the final application statistics for this hydropower company:
Successful Applicants: A total of 251,545 lucky investors were allotted shares through the computerized lottery.
Allotment Size: Each successful applicant received a flat 10 units of common stock.
Oversubscription Impact: Because the total number of valid applicants far exceeded the available share pool, more than a million applicants were left unallotted during this round.
The Mechanics of the Lottery System
In Nepal’s capital market, regulations set by the Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) mandate a minimum allotment of 10 units per successful applicant. When an IPO is heavily oversubscribed, the system automatically transitions into a lottery where every valid applicant has an equal chance of being selected.
For Taksar Pikhuwa Khola Hydropower, this process ensures a wide and highly democratized distribution of retail ownership across the country.
