Enviro Infra Engineers IPO Listing: Enviro Infra Engineers on Friday made a stellar stock market debut, with the shares listing at the stock exchanges at 48.64 per cent premium. The shares were listed at Rs 220 apiece on the NSE, which is 48.64 per cent higher as against the issue price of 148 apiece.
On the BSE, Enviro Infra Engineers’ shares were listed at an initial price of Rs 218, which is a premium of 47.29 per cent over the issue price.
Shivani Nyati, head of wealth at Swastika Investmart, said, “Enviro Infra Engineers made a strong debut on the stock market, listing at Rs 220, a remarkable 48.65% premium over its issue price of Rs 148. This outstanding performance was driven by the company’s strong fundamentals, strong investor interest (89.9 times subscribed), and the positive sentiment surrounding the water and wastewater treatment sector.”
The company’s focus on sustainable infrastructure and its strong track record in executing projects have contributed to this impressive listing. However, investors should remain cautious and monitor the company’s performance closely, considering factors such as project execution risks, regulatory changes, and competition in the sector, she added.
“While the initial listing is promising, long-term success will depend on Enviro Infra’s ability to capitalize on its growth opportunities and deliver strong financial performance. But as of now investors may hold their position by keeping a stoploss ar around 200,” Nyati said.
Prashanth Tapse, senior vice-president (research) of Mehta Equities Ltd, said, “Enviro Infra listing was above our expectations, this shows the demand for the theme based sector water and wastewater management companies have a bright future. The healthy listing gain is justified on the back of reasonable IPO valuation along with sector wise focus and increasing relevance of water & wastewater infrastructure treatment by the govt as well as industries and 2.5x order book visibility.”
Considering all the parameters and improving market sentiments, allotted conservative investors can think of booking profits due to the ongoing market volatility scenario. While risk takers should consider the company to “hold it for long term” despite knowing short-term volatility. For non-allotted investors, we advise to accumulate if we get dips post listing, he added.
