Baja Housing Finance IPO listing price prediction: As investors eagerly await the listing of Bajaj Housing Finance shares on the stock exchanges, scheduled for Monday, September 16, 2024, the grey market premium (GMP) of the public issue continues to remain above 100 per cent due to overwhelming demand among investors. This sustained GMP also reflects the high level of interest, and enthusiasm among investors, setting the stage for a strong post-listing performance.
Bajaj Housing Finance IPO, which ended for subscription on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, received a whopping 8.9 million applications, eclipsing the previous record of 7.35 million set by Tata Technologies. The allotment of Bajaj Housing Finance IPO was finalised yesterday.
According to several sources that track grey market activities, the unlisted shares of Bajaj Housing Finance are currently trading at a premium of approximately Rs 78, representing a 111 per cent gain over the IPO issue price. This indicates robust listing sentiments for the company's shares.
The latest grey market premium is marginally higher than Friday's GMP of Rs 75. It also remains significantly higher than the Rs 64 reported on September 9, 2024, the IPO's opening day.
