Shera Energy Limited IPO may see good subscription due to good listings by SME IPOs in recent past.
I intend to apply in Shera Energy Limited IPO.
SME IPO are more volatile and I generally exit on the listing day, many times in pre open session.
Lead Manager Holani has a mixed track record with 3 out of last 6 IPOs listing with gains. The last one Insolation energy listed with good gains.
Please do your own diligence as SME IPOs are more volatile and risky than mainboard IPOs and need more funds.
