Should you invest in RCF Offer for Sale of 2017?
If you want to make money in short term for 5% to 20% by taking risk, you can subscribe to RCF OFS. Don’t expect this stock to be multi bagger. However this stock can provide moderate returns in medium to long term.

Can anybody tell the tentative date of allotment of shares?
Have shares been allotted to you yet? The money got deducted from my account but no allotment or refund still.
hi
has RCF OFS shares been alloted? if not, when does the money get credited back to our account.
Suresh, one quick question. Is OFS is also like IPO? Will they take any lottery as such and allot shares? Is there any maximum number of shares we can apply? When can we expect RCF allotment?
It would be almost similar process. Allotment should happen any time by now
Hi , I have applied for OFS through icicidirect.com but the price which was showing is 74.25.
Is that the price which a retail investor should buy or any other price as per your analysis it should be 70.5 approx but it was not showing in the account .
I have already applied for it and what is the price i may get if allotted and how do we change this price now as per the govt discount .
I have applied for ofs through my broker but intimated by them that I have not received it. How does I have not received and what us the price at which retail investor were allotted. Looking 4 and no one gives.
Hi Arjun, OFS was closed on Friday within 1 day. Allotment would happen this week. Not sure how your broker told that it is already completed. Pls wait this week.
Thanks Suresh. I thought OFS allotments happen in one day. Is OFS not supported by ASBA? I am asking this because money has already been debited from my account.
ICICIDIRECT.COM is not listing this IPO.
it is not an IPO, please go in "Equity section" and scroll down & click on to "Offer for Sale" & trade
when will be the refund if not alloted..
