IPO GMP: While stock market experts often advise investors to examine a company’s financial performance, valuation, and growth prospects before applying for an initial public offering (IPO), grey market trends remain an important sentiment indicator for many primary market participants.
The latest mainboard IPO, priced at the upper end of the ₹788 per share band, has generated strong interest in the unlisted market. Based on the prevailing IPO GMP, the issue is indicating a potential listing premium of more than ₹380 per share over the upper price band, signalling robust demand ahead of its market debut.
The strong grey market premium reflects the broader trend of investors closely tracking IPO GMP and subscription data to gauge potential listing performance. However, market participants should note that GMP is unofficial, highly volatile and does not guarantee actual listing gains. Investors should continue to consider the company’s fundamentals and valuations before making an investment decision, according to experts.

Augmont Enterprises IPO review
Swastika Investmart noted that while the company generates high revenue from bullion trading volumes, its profitability remains thin, with the PAT margin below 0.4%. The brokerage also highlighted concentration and governance concerns, as the promoter group entity Riddisiddhi Bullions accounted for 27.44% of FY26 revenue. In addition, the top 10 customers accounted for 52.09% of FY26 revenue, without long-term contracts in place.
At the price band of ₹750–788, Swastika Investmart said the issue is valued at around 18.5–19.5 times FY26 earnings and 6.8–7.1 times price-to-book, which it considers relatively expensive for a trading-led business model. The brokerage believes the issue may be suitable for listing gains and medium- to long-term growth, but advised investors to remain cautious about low margins and customer concentration.
Meanwhile, GEPL Capital said that based on FY26 earnings, the issue is priced at around 21 times P/E. The brokerage highlighted the company’s healthy financial performance, expanding enterprise customer base, stronger last-mile distribution and diversification across products and geographies. Considering these factors and its valuation relative to peers, GEPL Capital has recommended a “Subscribe” rating for the issue.
