NEW DELHI: Even though the management of Macrotech Developers sounded confident that its IPO will create “a huge amount of value” for investors, grey market premium for the unlisted shares has dried up just ahead of Wednesday’s opening of the issue. Dealers active in the unofficial market for unlisted stocks, or grey market, said the premium enjoyed by the stock has come down to Rs 2-4, as investors’ risk appetite declined sharply in the past few weeks following the re-emergence of Covid infections. “A week back the stock was commanding a premium of about Rs 25,30,” said Dinesh Gupta, Founder of Unlisted Zone, a platform that facilitates grey market trading. Grey market premium is considered a good indicator of demand for a stock and gives an idea of possible listing gain in an IPO.
