R K Swamy IPO GMP Today
According to market observers, unlisted shares of R K Swamy are currently trading with zero premium in the grey market as compared with its issue price. The zero grey market premium or GMP means the grey market is expecting no gains on the listing day. The GMP is based on market sentiments and keeps changing.
‘Grey market premium’ indicates investors’ readiness to pay more than the issue price.
Prashanth Tapse, senior vice-president (research) of Mehta Equities, said, “Considering optimistic market mood along with decent subscription demand from all sets of investors on the last of the ipo process we expect a flat listing to its issue price of Rs 288 apiece. R K Swamy received decent subscription demand despite knowing the seasonality and volatility in the business model.”
He added that the flat listing is justified due to cyclicality risk and the company being the leading integrated marketing services group in India, offering a single-window solution for creative, media, data analytics and market research services for over five decades in the industry.
“We believe RK Swamy would get more traction post-listing as it would be the first of its kind and a pure play for one-stop marketing solutions company getting listed with no apple-to-apple listed peers to compare. Primarily the company is serving the sector which is volatile by nature but the growth has been good in recent years hence the call for allotted investors is HOLD for long term while those investors who wish to add on listing date can wait and watch the space post listing performance before taking any action,” Tapse said.
