ASBA stands for "Applications Supported by Blocked Accounts". At the time of bidding, investors account is blocked to the extent of the bid amount and debited only at the time of allotment.
According to SEBI, an investor can make a maximum of five applications from one bank account per issue using ASBA.
A price band is a price range between the upper and lower price in which buyers are able to place bids. For eg: if the price band is between Rs. 345-Rs. 350, it means that investors can bid for shares at any price between Rs.345- Rs.350.
Applying on Cut-off price means the investor is ready to pay whatever price is decided by the company at the end of the book-building process.
For eg: if the price band of an IPO is between Rs.345 - Rs.350 and the investor opts to bid at the cut off price, then the application would be done at the cap price i.e. Rs.350. However, if the determined issue price is less than Rs.350, then the price difference between the issue price and the cap price would be refunded to the investor after allotment.
An investor can place a maximum of 3 bids on an issue.
