The IPO, set to close on December 23, has already been oversubscribed approximately 25 times as of December 20, underscoring its strong market appeal.
Key Highlights of the IPO

- Grey Market Premium (GMP): Shares of Mamata Machinery are trading at a premium of ₹260 in the grey market, indicating a potential listing price of ₹503 per share, a 107% premium over the issue price.
Strong Investor Sentiment
The IPO has garnered widespread interest, with analysts pointing to the company’s solid growth trajectory in the packaging industry and attractive valuations compared to its peers. Positive brokerage reviews have further fueled the optimism, with several firms assigning a ‘Subscribe’ rating to the issue.
Mamata Machinery’s robust market position and growth prospects have been key drivers behind the strong subscription numbers.
The company specializes in high-quality packaging machinery, catering to diverse industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods. This diversified portfolio and consistent performance have made it a standout player in its sector.
GMP Indicates Robust Listing Gains
The grey market premium of ₹260 over the upper price band of ₹243 highlights the high demand for Mamata Machinery shares.
If the GMP holds, investors could see a listing price of around ₹503 per share, translating to substantial gains on the listing day, scheduled for December 27, 2024, on both BSE and NSE.
Important Considerations
While the IPO’s strong performance reflects market confidence, potential investors should note that it is entirely an OFS, meaning the company will not directly benefit from the proceeds. Nevertheless, Mamata Machinery’s strong fundamentals and growth potential remain attractive.
Conclusion
Mamata Machinery’s IPO has positioned itself as one of the most sought-after offerings of the year, with exceptional subscription figures and a promising GMP.
As the subscription period nears its close, all eyes are now on the December 27 listing, which is expected to cement the company’s status as a market favorite.
