NSE IPO lot size and price band
The NSE IPO lot size is 8 shares. At the upper price band of ₹1,785, one lot costs ₹14,280: that is the minimum investment.
A retail application can be for 1 to 14 lots (up to ₹1,99,920, under the ₹2 lakh retail limit). HNI (NII) applications start at 15 lots (₹2,14,200), and big HNI above ₹10 lakh at 71 lots.
The price band is ₹1,700 to ₹1,785. The final issue price is set inside it after bidding and was ₹1,785; the amount blocked is worked out at the upper end, so a lower final price releases the difference. At the lower end one lot would cost ₹13,600.

What lot size and price band mean
The lot size is the smallest number of shares you can bid for, and bids go up in whole lots. The price band is the range within which you can bid; most IPOs end up priced at its top.
Retail applicants can bid at the cut-off price, which means accepting whatever the final price is. The amount blocked is calculated at the top of the band.
