Stellar Debut! Airfloa Rail Technology share price lists at ₹266 on BSE SME, up 90% from IPO price

Airfloa Rail Technology IPO Listing: Airfloa Rail Technology share price made a stellar debut in the Indian stock market today, September 18. Airfloa Rail Technology share price listed on Thursday at ₹ 266 apiece on BSE SME, a premium of 90 per cent over its issue price of ₹ 140.

Ahead of the listing, Airfloa Rail Technology IPO GMP (grey market premium) stood at ₹175 per share, which indicated a likely listing price of around ₹315 – translating to a premium of 125 per cent over the upper end of the issue price band.

However, SME exchanges, including BSE SME and NSE Emerge, have a regulatory cap in place which restricts the maximum listing-day gain to 90% above the issue price. Therefore, even as the grey market signalled a 125% premium, the stock cannot list at more than 90% its issue price.
