Impact Assessment

The lock-in schedule limits early selling pressure from promoters and anchor investors, which is typical for IPO listings. The significant 3-year lock-in on a portion of promoter shares (63,999,074 shares until March 2029) provides long-term price stability signals. Short-term trading activity will be primarily driven by the freely tradable IPO public category shares. Anchor investor lock-in expiries in March and May 2026 may create minor selling pressure at those points.

Impact Justification

Routine IPO listing lock-in disclosure for Omnitech Engineering Limited; relevant to investors holding or trading shares but limited broader market impact.
