April 22, 2026 (MLN): The initial public offering (IPO) of Wahdat has drawn strong investor interest, with the book building phase oversubscribed by five times, signaling robust demand and market confidence.

The strike price was set at Rs18 per share, marking a 50% increase from the floor price of Rs12.

A total participation of approximately Rs2,315 million was received against an issue size of around Rs446 million at the floor price, reflecting an oversubscription of 5.2x.

A total of 254 investors participated in the book building of Wahdat Poultry Farm Limited, of which 105 investors were successful.
