IPO price band
Speaking about price band, Dr. Ravi Singh, market expert, said,”Tata group carries a strong reputation of trust and legacy. The Tata Tech company is a leading player in the automotive ER&D services globally. If we compare with its peer’s valuation, Tata technologies IPO may open at higher price but to keep enough space for the investors, the IPO may open around the price band of Rs. 280 – 320″.
Vaibhav Kaushik, research analyst, GCL Broking, said,”Since the company has proposed 405,668,530 shares for listing on the Indian stock exchanges, the IPO price of Tata Technologies would be around ₹295. So, in case of a neck-and-neck race in valuations, the IPO price of Tata Technologies can be expected around ₹295″.
“Sometimes, companies offer their shares at a discount of 10-15 points to make them more attractive to investors. In this case, Tata Technologies’ IPO price could be between ₹265 and ₹270 per share. However, when expectations of response are high, companies also try to maximise their returns and therefore offer their shares at valuations that are the same percentage points higher. In this case, Tata Technologies’ IPO price is likely to be ₹315 to ₹320 per share”, he added.
