While the IPO received a strong subscription of 63.44 times and initial market buzz was positive, the actual listing fell short of expectations, likely due to prevailing market volatility, according to Shivani Nyati, Head of Wealth at Swastika Investmart.
Nyati believes the company’s strong fundamentals and market position offer potential for long-term growth, but investors should carefully assess risks and market volatility. “Investors with a long-term view may consider holding their position, setting a stop loss at the issue price,” Nyati added.
