The Jamnagar-based brass products manufacturer is raising about Rs 45 crore through a fixed-price issue and will list on the BSE SME platform. The IPO will remain open for bidding until Thursday with shares scheduled to debut on January 20.
The absence of any GMP suggests investors are not factoring in immediate upside on listing, a contrast to some recent SME offerings that saw double-digit GMPs ahead of debut. A zero GMP typically implies expectations of a flat listing close to the issue price, though actual outcomes can vary based on subscription trends and broader market sentiment.
IPO structure and pricing
The Narmadesh Brass Industries IPO is priced at Rs 515 per share and comprises a fresh issue of about Rs 36.1 crore and an offer for sale worth roughly Rs 8.8 crore. The total issue size stands at 8.71 lakh shares.
The lot size for bidding is 240 shares. Retail investors are required to apply for a minimum of two lots, or 480 shares, translating into an investment of Rs 2,47,200.
Of the total issue, nearly 47.4% is reserved each for retail and non-institutional investors, while about 5.2% has been earmarked for the market maker, JSK Securities & Services.
