I think reliance is being fair to everyone as usual and allotted everyone with minimum shares
right .. everyone who applied for more than 10 lots,, i guess got 15 to 17 shares each.. now lets hope it lists (a) more than 750 - 800 rather than the rumored 600.

Subprime mortgages and credit liquidity crunch?
Each of the major investment bank appear to have burned serious money on subprime mortgages surrounded by the US. We in Australia are audible range of additional tranches of discount interest mortgages resetting to usual interest rates this year and next. Have the iBanks who bought these already written these exposures down (in the most recent reporting season) or will the write downs of these subsequent few tranches only be revealed over the subsequent year plus?Answers: The whole piece is pretty complex since the financial wizards got extremely creative in covering things together in complex things resembling CDOs and SIVs. Apparently even a lot of sophisticated investors beside finance degree didn't really understand these things exceedingly well, so I'm not going to pretend that I completely know them, but here's the sense I have...
Most of those mortgages are not held individually as be common within the past. They've be sliced and diced a million ways into complex packages with name like CDOs and SIVs. In most cases, the bank that wrote the mortgages no longer own them. (In my opinion, that be a lot of the problem . If the bank that wrote the loans had to hold on to them, they'd have be a lot more wise in who they lent money to, but since they sold them sour right away, they didn't really care give or take a few the risk.)
My understanding is that a great deal of the huge writedowns we've seen from the big bank like Citigroup are not due to individual mortgages going into foreclosure but due to the convenience of the CDOs and SIVs plummeting because no one requests them any more now that they know more in the order of what they really are. A lot of that is anticipation of how oodles subprime mortgages will eventually go into foreclosure (or hold to be substantially modified). So although there are plentiful more foreclosures ahead of us, I think most of that have already been factored within to the writedowns we've already seen. There might be a few bank that didn't really fully expose what they've lost yet and will own to write down more, but I suspect that most of them, especially the ones with spanking new CEOs (like Citi and Merrill Lynch) have probably cleared the deck. Time will tell, but I suspect that a week or so be probably the absolute best time to buy sandbank stocks, but even now is still a amazingly good time. The prices hold risen a lot surrounded by the last week so I wouldn't be too surprised to see them drop fund a little, but I ruminate that a year or two from now, they'll be substantially sophisticated.
