Promoters currently hold 100% of the company. After the IPO, promoter and promoter group holding is expected to reduce to 74.95%, while public shareholding will increase to 25.05%.

Manika Plastech has an established presence in rigid polymer packaging and serves multiple industries across India. Its long-standing customer relationships, diversified product portfolio and manufacturing network are among the key positives.
Financial performance has also improved, with higher revenue, EBITDA and profit in FY26 and a reduction in borrowings compared with FY25.
However, investors should consider the company's relatively modest return ratios and the risks associated with the packaging and polymer industry before applying.
The latest GMP of ₹4 suggests a much lower potential listing premium than the levels seen earlier in the IPO period. Investors should therefore not rely solely on GMP while evaluating the issue.
As per the latest supplied subscription data, the IPO was subscribed 7.61 times on September 15, 2026. Retail demand stood at 7.68 times, NII at 5.95 times and QIB ex-anchor at 0.37 times at the earlier reported stage.
