Twitter has reportedly raised the price of its shares by 25 percent ahead of its IPO debut.
The microblogging site has revealed that it will sell for 23-25 dollars-a-share compared to the previous target of 17-20 dollars.
According to the BBC, the demand for the shares has been so heavy that Twitter is ending the offer a day early.
The current share price values the seven-year old company, offering 70 million shares at the highly anticipated IPO, at up to 13.6billion dollars.
The report said that the final price of Twitter's IPO will be set to price on Wednesday, with shares making their debut on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on Thursday.
Twitter will list with the 'TWTR' symbol and chose NYSE, unlike Facebook, which had opted for Nasdaq exchange leading to a technically marred debut.
