Last Updated: 23rd March 2023 - 05:54 pm
Global Surfaces IPO had a strong listing on 23rd March 2023, listing at a strong premium of 17.14%, and closing the day still higher on the back of strong buying on the counter on the day of listing. One can almost say that the stock rallied sharply despite having selected the wrong day to list as the Nifty was down 75 points and the Sensex was down nearly 290 points on Thursday. While the stock did show some bouts of volatility during the day, it closed almost 23% higher than the issue price on the first day of trading on the NSE. It also closed well below the listing price. With subscription of a healthy level of 12.21X overall and QIB subscription at 8.95X, the real thrust came from the HNI / NII subscription at 33.10X.
