Tips for Investors
- High demand: The IPO was oversubscribed, especially by HNIs (49.75 times) and QIBs (44.21 times). Retail investors have about a 1 in 18 chance of buying the shares, thanks to the 24.75 times subscription.
- Potential gains: GMPs indicate a 7% to 17% upside at the time of listing, but grey market figures are not definitive, so be cautious.
- Growth potential: Complex’s expansion plans and mix of income sources (ticketing, food, advertising) make it attractive for long-term investors. But some are concerned whether this big increase in profit in 2025 will last.
- Risks: Always do your own research and talk to a financial advisor. The stock market can be risky, and the IPO price looks high based on recent earnings.
- Listing and trading: You can sell the shares on August 14, 2025, when trading begins on NSE SME. Keep an eye on the market to decide when to trade.
Expert Opinion
Market expert Dilip Davda says Complex has grown a lot, but the big jump in its profits in 2025 may not be sustained. The IPO price seems reasonable, but only investors with extra money should consider it, and they should be cautious about short-term gains. See the Red Herring Prospectus (RHP) for more details.
Conclusion
The Complex Cinemas IPO has generated a lot of excitement in the cinema business with its high demand and growth potential. Investors can now check their allotment status and gear up for listing on August 14, 2025. While there is potential for listing gains, be cautious, do your homework and consult a financial advisor before making a decision.
