The company had made an allotment of 2,35,05,000 shares to anchor investors at the top end of the price band of Rs 28.

From the above chart it is clearly visible that the share traded in the Rs 25-26 range since listing and crashed to the low of Rs 23.50 around 10.30 am. From there the share recovered close to the Rs 26 mark and for the remaining part of the day the share just drifted down slowly but steadily without any effort to recover lost ground. The share closed at Rs 24.90 on both exchanges with a loss of Rs 3.10 per share or 11.07%. The weighted average of the day was Rs 25.14 on the BSE an dRs 25.10 on the NSE respectively. The total traded volume was 595.91 lakh shares which was 38% of the IPO size of 15.67 cr shares which were issued. The delivery volume was 132.07 lakh shares which was a very high 22.16% of the traded volume but a mere 8.42% of the IPO size.
This low delivery as a percentage of IPO issue size indicated that the share is likely to be under pressure for quite some time.
