After applying for an IPO, the amount gets blocked for use from your account. Therefore, the money is still showing in your balance but is blocked for use.
If LIC IPO is oversubscribed, the shares will be distributed proportionately among investors so that each investor gets a minimum of one lot. This is done on a lottery basis, so there cannot be a guarantee that you will get the shares. It is possible that few investors do not get any shares at all, in case of oversubscription.
If you don’t get the allotment in LIC IPO, the amount will be unblocked, and you will be able to use the amount in your bank account.
LIC IPO shares will get listed on BSE and NSE on May 17, 2021. (tentative)
