Thanks to Gooli, I now get the Silicon Valley references (compression algorithm and all). 😉Amazing narration, worth the wait.

Loved the story; it's an excellent narrative and educational piece! Do you think at some point you might write similar pieces about Direct Listings and SPACs? I think together they'd make a really good educational short story triplet!

Great one, Raju! Loved the ending. If you could provide an illustration/representation of offer price determination and greenshoe option, it will help us understand it better.

It was irritating to read Hindi names, it took away a lot from the story. And I do not mean this in a racist kind of way, it should just have been A and B for example.
