Anand Rathi IPO shares to list on Tuesday; GMP indicates modest listing – price and key details inside

Brokerage firm Anand Rathi Share and Stock Brokers, whose IPO garnered healthy investor interest with subscription crossing over 20 times, is set to debut on the bourses on Tuesday, September 30.

According to market sources, the company’s shares are commanding a grey market premium (GMP) of ₹27 ahead of listing. Based on the upper band issue price of ₹414 and the current GMP, the estimated listing price comes at ₹441 per share, about 6.52% higher than the issue price.

The grey market premium reflects the expected difference between an IPO’s issue price and its anticipated listing price in the unofficial market. However, analysts caution that GMP is only an early indicator and should not be the sole factor in making investment decisions.

Harshal Dasani, Business Head at INVasset PMS, said India’s financialization theme continues to support platforms like Anand Rathi, though revenues will remain sensitive to equity market cycles. “The GMP points to a modest premium, indicating fair appetite for listing-day action,” he noted.

Unlike pure-play listing pops, Dasani added, this IPO offers a medium-term hold story, giving investors exposure to structural growth in capital markets along with reasonable near-term listing prospects.
