Swiggy IPO GMP Today

According to market observers, unlisted shares of Swiggy Ltd continue to trade at just Rs 1 higher in the grey market than its issue price. The Rs 1 grey market premium or 0.26 per cent GMP means the grey market is expecting a muted listing or discount listing.

The GMP is based on market sentiments and keeps changing. ‘Grey market premium’ indicates investors’ readiness to pay more than the issue price.

“On October 29, the GMP stood at Rs 25 (6.4 per cent), but it has since dropped significantly to 0.26 per cent. This decline can be attributed to the recent correction in benchmark indices and the prevailing negative market sentiment. However, Swiggy’s CFO has noted that the October volatility was factored into their pricing strategy,” said Gaurav Garg, research analyst at Lemonn Markets Desk.

Generally, pure-play companies in the market are awarded a premium. Until now, Zomato was the sole listed player in the quick commerce and food delivery space. With Swiggy’s listing, this premium may diminish, potentially leading to an overall valuation correction across the industry, Garg added.

Prashanth Tapse, senior vice-president (research) and research analyst at Mehta Equities, “Despite being the second-largest e-commerce and food delivery player, Swiggy received a sluggish response from overall investors. While on a consolidated basis, the overall subscription figures look good, but Day-3 Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIB) investors supported Swingy ipo helping it to successfully sell out, which looks similar trend to Hyundai Motors IPO.”

The majority of the investors, especially NIIs and retail, stayed back on few reason like negative cash flow business model followed by concern on high competition and an ongoing negative market mood. Considering low subscription demand from NIIs and retail investors followed by market sentiments, there is a very high possibility of flat to negative listing in the range of +or – 5-10% on its issue price, he added.

“Post listing, for allotted investors, one should not expect any kind of listing gains. Hence, only risky investors should consider the company to HOLD FOR LONG TREM despite knowing short term volatility and competitive pressures in the sector. For non-allottees, we advise to wait and watch for the price to settle and revisit the space with better discounted opportunity,” Tapse said.
