According to a report in Moneycontrol, here is what grey market trends suggest:
Abhay Doshi, Co-Founder of Unlisted Arena
The COVID-19 outbreak impacted the company severely and the focus should now be on the performance post-reopening of the economy. The issue looked richly priced, however, due to a smaller allocation to retail applicants in IPO, it may generate huge fancy on the listing.
Owing to the decent subscription, a magnificent listing is expected. In my view, the issue should list somewhere above Rs 1,100, a premium of about 50-55 percent.
Gaurav Garg, Head of Research at CapitalVia Global Research
We expect the listing at Rs 1,170, which gives a gain of around 70 percent. He pointed out that the company has not been profitable since FY19 but has had healthy operating cash flows. In FY21, the company posted a loss of Rs 3.54 crore as against a profit of Rs 52.63 crore in previous year, on a revenue of Rs 250.66 crore, down from Rs 392 crore.
Manoj Dalmia, Founder and Director at Proficient Equities
Go Fashion stock could list in the range of Rs 900-1,190 on bourses. One can expect a premium of 50-60 percent over the issue price depending on market conditions, he said.
Prashanth Tapse, Vice-President (Research) at Mehta Equities
Looking at the strong HNI and QIB subscription demand for the largest women’s bottom-wear brands in India, we can expect a strong listing gain with a 65-70 percent premium on the upper end of the IPO price of Rs 690.
