Glass Wall Systems IPO Draws Strong Demand, GMP Signals Gains
Glass Wall Systems is selling shares to the public through an IPO.
The IPO is priced between ₹172 and ₹182 per share.
Investors showed strong interest, with the issue subscribed more than eight times by the second day.
The grey market price suggests the shares could list at about ₹248, although this is not guaranteed.
Two brokerages recommended applying, especially because the company has reported strong growth and profits.
The company also has an order book worth ₹846 crore.
It plans to use ₹50 crore to build a glass-processing unit in Maharashtra.
Investors should still consider risks from real-estate demand and the company’s ability to execute projects.
The ₹428 crore Glass Wall Systems IPO is open from 8 to 10 September, with shares priced at ₹172–₹182 and lots of 82 shares.
The issue was subscribed 8.22 times by Day 2, led by non-institutional investors at 12.41 times and retail investors at 10.96 times.
The grey market premium stood at ₹66, implying an estimated listing price of ₹248 and a potential 36.26% gain at the upper price band.
Swastika Investmart and SBI Securities recommended subscribing, citing growth, profitability, market position and an ₹846 crore order book.
The IPO includes a ₹60 crore fresh issue and a 2.02 crore-share offer for sale; ₹50 crore of fresh proceeds will fund a glass-processing unit in Maharashtra.
