According to stock market experts, despite slightly higher valuations, Sanstar's IPO received a strong response from the primary market investors. However, due to the rising demand for the company's products, they predicted a strong debut of Sanstar shares despite weak trends in the Indian stock market. They said the Sanstar IPO listing price can be expected to be ₹125 to ₹130 per share range.
Speaking on Sanstar's IPO listing, Amit Goel, Co-Founder and Chief Global Strategist at Pace 360, said, "We expect a listing at around ₹125 to ₹130 per share, resulting in a listing gain of around 33 percent. With rising product demand, the management is confident of improving the reported trends and its performance post expanded capacities."
Expecting a strong debut for Sanstar shares, Prashanth Tapse, Senior vice president of research at Mehta Equities, said, “Despite valuations being slightly on the expensive side, Sanstar received a healthy response on the last day of the issue from all types of investors. We believe the investor demand has come considering an opportunity to invest in one of the leading Indian manufacturers of plant-based speciality products and ingredients derived from maize.”
"We also believe there are high entry barriers in the maize-based speciality products industry, and the B2B nature of their business creates significant exit barriers for customers, ensuring a stable and loyal customer base. Considering healthy subscription demand and unique business matrix, we expect a decent room for listing gain in the range of around 22 percent to 25 percent against the issue price of ₹95 per share," said Prashanth Tapse of Mehta Equities.
According to market observers, Sanstar IPO GMP (grey market premium) today is ₹35. The grey market expects Sanstar's IPO listing price to be around ₹130 ( ₹95 + ₹35), around 35 percent higher than the issue price.
