Italian Edibles IPO lists at discount, then hits upper circuit
Italian Edibles IPO had a weak listing on 12th February 2024, listing at a discount of -19.12%. After a weak opening, the stock closed the day at the 5% upper circuit over the listing price. For the day, the stock closed above the IPO listing price but was still well below the IPO price due to the discount listing on 12th February 2024. What also stood out about the stock was the bounce after listing and that was in spite of a weak listing and additionally weakness in the stock markets too. In fact, on the day, the Nifty had shown a sharp correction by -166 point and the Sensex was lower by -523 points. In the last few days, the Nifty has been volatile but has managed to hold the 21,500 mark during the week although it must be said that the geopolitical risk is piling up for now.
There are several challenges that the market is facing at this juncture. Firstly, the geopolitical risk is rising with the situation in the Middle East and West Asia worsening and its impact on global trade. Secondly, valuations are a concern and the rising VIX is making the markets a lot more vulnerable at this juncture. Thirdly, the latest quarter was one of the weakest quarters in terms of sales and profit growth and there was visible pressure in terms of weak rural demand and pressure on operating margins. All these contributed to the weakness in the market and Monday was just an example of the pressure in the market.
Subscription and price performance of Italian Edibles IPO on listing day
Let us now turn to the subscription story of Italian Edibles IPO. With robust subscription of 120.62X for the retail portion, and 177.37X for the HNI / NII portion; the overall subscription was extremely healthy at 154.43X. The IPO was a fixed price IPO issue with the IPO price set at ₹68 per share. However, despite the strong subscription, the stock listed at a substantial discount to the issue price and that can be attributed to the pricing and also to the fact that the market was under a lot of stress on Monday.
However, subsequently, despite the stock opening weak and 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 some recovery in the stock amidst the volatile market sentiments. The subscription normally impacts in 2 ways. Firstly, it impacts the listing price and then it also impacts the post-listing performance of the stock on listing day. On 12th February 2024, the stock listed at a steep discount to the issue price, but did show some resilience to bounce back to hit the upper circuit. However, being a fixed price issue, there was no question of impacting the price discovery process.

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. Italian Edibles Ltd had a market cap of ₹85.34 crore and the issue size was ₹26.66 crore. Therefore, the Market cap contribution ratio of the IPO works out to 3.20 times; which is significantly at par with the median. 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.
