Robust listing for IBL Finance Ltd, then upper circuit
IBL Finance IPO had a strong listing on 16th January 2024, listing at a premium of 9.80%. After a strong opening, the stock closed the day at the 5% upper circuit over the listing price. For the day, the stock closed comfortably above the IPO issue price and the IPO listing price at the close of trading on 16th January 2024. What also stood out about the stock was the bumper listing despite the absence of market support. In fact, on the day, the Nifty had shown a sharp correction by -65 point and the Sensex was lower by -199 points. In the last few days, the Nifty has been volatile but has managed to hold the 22,000 mark during the week and that is what matters to the market. However, markets did show some signs of weakness today as traders rushed to book profits. Markets corrected after a string of positive trading days as there were some concerns setting in at higher levels of the market. Investors are generally turning slightly cautious after the big rally in the markets, especially the frenetic rally over the last quarter of 2024.
Subscription and price performance of IBL Finance Ltd on listing day
Let us now turn to the subscription story of IBL Finance Ltd. With modest subscription of 24.03X for the retail portion, and 9.94X for the HNI / NII portion; the overall subscription was relatively modest at 17.00X. The IPO was a fixed price IPO issue with the IPO price already fixed at ₹51 per share. Being a fixed price issue and getting such modest subscription numbers, the stock was expected to list at a modest premium on the day with the ability to hold on at higher levels during the day. The stock listed at a strong premium of 9.80% on the NSE SME segment.
However, subsequently, despite the stock seeing some volatility in the early parts of the day, it went on to close at the upper circuit of 5% over the listing price. This was reflective of strength in the stock amidst the volatile market sentiments. The subscription normally impacts the price discovery in book building issues and the listing price. However, being a fixed price issue, price discovery was not relevant in this case. The modest subscription had a positive impact on the ability of the stock in 2 ways. Firstly, it ensured that the stock price listing was at a modest to robust premium to the issue price. Secondly, despite the pressure on the overall market from weakness in the Nifty and the Sensex, the stock managed to close at the 5% upper circuit for the day, which is a sign of inherent strength in the stock.

The SME IPO of IBL Finance Ltd was a fixed price IPO and priced at ₹51 per share. On 16th January 2024, the stock of IBL Finance Ltd listed on the NSE at a price of ₹56 per share, a premium of 9.80% over the IPO issue price of ₹51. However, despite a volatile day post listing on 16th January 2024, the stock of IBL Finance Ltd closed exactly at the upper circuit price of ₹58.80 per share. The stock had an upper circuit limit of ₹58.80 for the day and a lower circuit limit of ₹53.20 per share for the day. In the midst of the volatility in trading during the day, the stock hit the upper circuit but stayed put at the upper circuit price for the better part of the day.
However, the stock never went below the listing price of the day, which was also the low price of the day at ₹56 per share. The stock was, obviously, quite far away from the lower circuit price of the day. The stock showed a smart bounce from lower levels as it spent better part of the day locked in upper circuit only. The closing price reflects a strong day of trading, because it closed at the upper circuit and never went below the listing price, and it remained well above the lower circuit limit for the day. Also, the upper circuit comes on top of a 9.80% premium listing of the stock, which is all the more appreciable, considering that the Nifty and the Sensex had actively been negative on the day of listing of IBL Finance Ltd. Overall, the closing price of the stock of IBL Finance Ltd was a full 15.29% above the issue price on the first day of the stock listing on the NSE SME segment.
Listed in the ST segment for trade in T2T
Being an SME IPO on the NSE, the stock of IBL Finance Ltd was subjected to 5% circuit filter on listing day and was also in the ST (trade to trade) segment. That means, only delivery trades are permitted on the stock. Like the upper circuit price, even the lower circuit price on listing day is calculated on the listing price and not on the IPO price. The opening price of the day was exactly at the low price of the day, meaning the stock never really dipped below the listing price and spent most part of the day at the upper circuit, locked in. During the day, the stock hit the upper circuit but stayed well above the lower circuit but the close was exactly at the upper circuit price. In fact, the stock never went below the listing price and stayed well above the lower circuit price of the day. On the NSE, the stock of IBL Finance Ltd has been admitted to trade in the ST category. The ST category is specifically for the SME Emerge segment of the NSE with compulsory trade to trade settlement. On such stocks, netting of positions is not permitted and every trade has to be settled by delivery only.

On Day-1 of listing i.e., on 16th January 2024, IBL Finance Ltd touched a high of ₹58.80 per share on the NSE and a low of ₹56 per share. The high price of the day was exactly the upper circuit limit price of the stock while the stock low price of the day was exactly at the listing price of the day. Between these two extreme prices, the stock was relatively less volatile and eventually closed at the upper circuit price of the day. In fact, the stock can be said to have enjoyed a strong listing and despite the Nifty correcting by 65 points and the Sensex correcting by 199 points during the day, the stock of IBL Finance Ltd closed at 5% upper circuit on top of a premium listing on the NSE.
During the trading day, the stock never really went below the listing price of ₹56 per share, which was the low price of the day and stayed well clear of the lower circuit price of ₹53.20 per share.

Robust volumes for IBL Finance Ltd on listing day
Let us now turn to the volumes of the stock on the NSE. On Day-1 of listing, the IBL Finance Ltd stock traded a total of 21.30 lakh shares on NSE SME segment amounting to trading value (turnover) of ₹1,233.06 lakhs on the first day. The order book during the day showed a lot of buying with the buy orders consistently exceeding the sell orders at any point of time. That also led the stock to close with pending buy orders at the end of the trading session, although the price was hardly volatile during the day. It must be noted here that IBL Finance Ltd is in the trade to trade (T2T) segment so only delivery trades are possible on the stock. Hence the entire volume for the day purely represents the delivery volumes.
At the close of Day-1 of listing, IBL Finance Ltd had a market capitalization of ₹145.42 crore with free-float market cap of ₹53.97 crore. It has a total of 247.31 lakh shares as the issued capital of the company with a face value of ₹10 per share. As stated earlier, since the trading is on the T2T segment, the entire volume of 21.30 lakh shares during the day is accounted by delivery trades only, barring some market trade exceptions in the market. The stock trades on the NSE SME segment under the trading code (IBLFL) and will be available in the demat account under ISIN code (INE0O7401018).
IPO size to Market cap contribution ratio
One way to assess the significance of the IPO on the market cap of the segment is the ratio of market overall to the IPO size. IBL Finance Ltd had a market cap of ₹145.42 crore and the issue size was ₹33.41 crore. Therefore, the Market cap contribution ratio of the IPO works out to 4.35 times. Remember, this is not the ratio of the market cap to original book value, but the ratio of the market cap created to the size of the IPO. That shows the significance of the IPO to the overall market cap accretion of the stock exchange.
