Powerica IPO: Apply Now or Post-Listing? Market Expert Anil Singhvi Weighs In The initial public offering (IPO) of Powerica Ltd entered its second day of public subscription on Wednesday, March 25, 2026. Market expert Anil Singhvi, Managing Editor at Zee Business, provided insights into the company’s business model, highlighting both its strengths and potential risks. The IPO’s share allotment is expected to be finalized on March 30, 2026, with the stock likely to list on the BSE and NSE on April 2, 2026. As of 10:50 am on the subscription day, the IPO had received limited investor interest, with bids for 2.13 lakh shares out of the total net offer, resulting in a subscription ratio of 0.01 times. Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) had not yet submitted bids for their reserved 58.56 lakh shares. Non-Institutional Investors (NIIs) had applied for 18,389 shares out of 43.92 lakh allocated, while Retail Individual Investors (RIIs) had booked 0.02 times the allotted shares, with 1.81 lakh bids out of 1.02 crore shares. Singhvi emphasized that the power sector is poised for growth, but Powerica must demonstrate stronger future expansion. He advised high-risk investors to consider applying for the IPO long-term, while low-risk investors could apply now but should set a strict stop-loss level at the IPO price of Rs 395. Alternatively, he suggested low-risk investors might wait to purchase the stock post-listing. Singhvi’s analysis of Powerica’s business profile included several key points. The company, established since 1984, has a well-established business model and partnerships with major players like Cummins, Hyundai, and GE Vernova. It maintains a strong presence in diesel generator (DG) sets and wind power solutions, positioning itself to benefit from rising demand for data center and backup power solutions.#bse #nse #anil_singhvi #zee_business #powerica_ltd
Amir Chand Jagdish Kumar IPO: Apply or Avoid? Here's What Anil Singhvi Thinks The IPO of Amir Chand Jagdish Kumar (Exports) Ltd has attracted bids for 2.32 crore shares, surpassing the net offer by 1.23 times as of 10:30 am. Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) have subscribed to 0.58 times the allocated shares, with 45.98 lakh shares bid out of 79.59 lakh reserved. Retail Individual Investors (RIIs) have booked 0.39 times the allotted shares, with 29.53 lakh shares bid out of 76.61 lakh. Market expert Anil Singhvi, Managing Editor at Zee Business, analyzed the company’s business profile, highlighting both strengths and weaknesses. The firm owns the established rice brand Aeroplane and has 40 years of experience among its promoters. It ranks as the third-largest producer and exporter in revenue terms, with a strong historical growth track record. However, the company faces challenges such as a high debt-to-equity ratio, elevated finance costs, and a low PAT margin of 3% compared to peers. Its valuations are also considered expensive, with other listed stocks trading at lower prices. Additionally, the company is diversifying into high-competition FMCG products, and its top 10 clients account for 64% of total revenue. Singhvi advised investors to approach the IPO cautiously, noting the challenging market environment and the lack of a unique business model. He suggested that low-risk investors might consider buying the stock post-listing, while high-risk investors could apply now with strict stop-loss strategies to protect against potential losses if the stock trades below the IPO price of Rs 212. The Rs 440 crore IPO consists entirely of a fresh issue of 2.08 crore equity shares. At the upper price band of Rs 212 per share, the company’s market valuation is estimated at Rs 2,195.29 crore.#emkay_global #anil_singhvi #zee_business #kfin_technologies #amir_chand_jagdish_kumar
GSP Crop Science IPO: Apply or avoid? Here's what market guru Anil Singhvi suggests Market expert Anil Singhvi, Managing Editor at Zee Business, recently shared his analysis of GSP Crop Science Ltd’s initial public offering. The company, which operates in the agrochemical sector, is seeking to raise Rs 400 crore through a mix of a fresh issue and an offer for sale. Singhvi outlined both the strengths and limitations of the IPO, offering investors a balanced perspective on whether to participate. Singhvi highlighted several positive aspects of the company. The promoters, with over four decades of experience in the industry, are well-versed in managing agrochemical operations. The company’s product portfolio is described as well-diversified, covering insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators—essentially all segments of crop protection. Additionally, the firm’s focus on research and innovation is noted as a key strength in a competitive sector. However, Singhvi also pointed out several drawbacks. He noted that the company’s valuations are neither particularly attractive nor unreasonably high. While the price may seem fair compared to large, established firms, it appears average when benchmarked against peers of similar size. Furthermore, the agrochemical sector has underperformed since the pandemic, with investors struggling to achieve significant returns. Singhvi emphasized that the IPO does not present a unique or compelling opportunity in the current market environment. Considering these factors, Singhvi advised investors to approach the IPO with caution. He described the company as a small player in a weak market, where generating gains from the listing could be challenging.#gsp_crop_science #anil_singhvi #zee_business #vilasben_vrajmohan_shah #bhavesh_vrajmohan_shah
