KKR’s top buy (Cameron Green, ₹25.2cr) is a clear outlier and also the longest bidding war, signalling aggressive top-end allocation. CSK’s leading purchase (Prashant Veer, ₹14.2cr) shows strong willingness to pay for a scarce role. DC’s top buy (Auqib Nabi, ₹8.4cr) is the main mid-tier spike. RR and RCB sit in the ₹7cr band (Bishnoi/Iyer), suggesting targeted upgrades rather than purse-dominant strategy. LSG, MI, GT and SRH remain comparatively conservative to this point.
