GMP signals over 19% premium
As of today, the grey market premium (GMP) for Shringar House of Mangalsutra’s IPO stands at ₹32 per share. This suggests that the shares are anticipated to list above their issue price. With this GMP and the IPO’s upper price band, the estimated listing price of the shares would be ₹197, reflecting an 19.4% premium over the issue price of ₹165 per share.
The grey market premium represents the expected difference between an IPO’s issue price and its anticipated listing price in the unofficial market. However, it’s important to remember that GMP is a preliminary indicator and should not be the sole factor in making investment decisions.
