As per the Knowledge base and I quote, “ Once the bid is placed and payment mandate is approved you will not be able to Cancel/Delete the bid.“
So I placed ipo bid yesterday for cms info system and approved the amount request via UPI app and my money is blocked, then later in the day I was able to cancel my bid successfully via Dhan app but still the money is showing as blocked.
So my two points:
when the blocked money be freed again.
if I had approved the payment request via UPI, the how was I able to cancel my bid from Dhan app.
As checked, The Issue occurred when the bid was initiated successfully from your end but we received the delayed confirmation from the exchange side that the mandate is blocked, meanwhile as the option was visible the cancellation was processed.
As checked the bid is canceled successfully, Kindly contact your bank to initiate the refund. Also, Thanks for highlighting this, we will work on improving the IPO cancellation communication.
Hello, I reached out to bank for the initiation of refund for the same and the reply I received from them is stated below:

We wish to confirm that the bank has received successful response from NPCI (National Payments Corporation of India) hence the amount has been put on hold as per the standard IPO application process.

As per the steps mentioned by them, I do not see anything in GIFT section of BHIM UPI app. What am I supposed to do in this case? Please help me clarify this.
Does this means, even after you confirmed above the IPO bid is cancelled successfully, the shared might get allotted to me.
As per our discussion, I have checked the same The bid was canceled successfully, The blocked amount will be released automatically from the bank side once the refund request is initiated for all.
