SME IPO are more volatile and risky.
Share India Capital Services Private Limited is the lead manager to the issue as well as the market maker. Their recent issues handled by it were Dee Neer Tools, Quicktouch technologies. They had a good run on the bourses.
GMP as reported on social media has been inching up and may be more than Rs. 50.
Anchor issue; Familiar investor names in SME issues, Rajasthan Global securities pvt Ltd (79% allocation). and Saint capital fund(21% allocation) were allotted shares in the anchor issue.
Please do your own diligence as SME IPOs are more volatile and risky than mainboard IPOs and need more funds.
