Upcoming IPO Market: Four New Initial Public Offerings Including KSH International
India’s primary market is gearing up for a bustling week as four new initial public offerings (IPOs) prepare to open for subscription, collectively valued at approximately Rs 830 crore. Among these, KSH International’s IPO stands out as the largest. Market watchers are keenly anticipating the listings of nearly 15 companies, including notable names like ICICI Prudential Asset Management Company, Corona Remedies, and Park Medi World, which are expected to attract significant investor interest.
Upcoming IPOs and Market Sentiment
The upcoming week will see the launch of four new IPOs, with KSH International leading the pack. This IPO is set to open on December 16 and close on December 18, with shares priced between Rs 365 and Rs 384. The total size of this offering is around Rs 710 crore. The shares will be listed on both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE). Nuvama Wealth Management is managing this significant issue, which is anticipated to influence overall market sentiment following a busy issuance calendar in December.
In addition to KSH International, ICICI Prudential AMC is generating considerable buzz. The IPO has seen a strong start, with subscriptions exceeding 50% on its opening day. In the grey market, the stock is trading at a premium of Rs 249, indicating an 11% increase over the IPO price. This positive sentiment is expected to bolster investor confidence as more companies prepare to enter the market.
Grey Market Trends and Investor Interest
Investor interest in the grey market is also noteworthy. Corona Remedies is experiencing a robust demand, with a grey market premium of approximately 30% over its issue price. Meanwhile, Nephrocare is trading at a moderate premium of 7%, and Wakefit shows a slight premium of around 5%. In the SME segment, KV Toys is particularly noteworthy, boasting a grey market premium of 63%, while other SME offerings are seeing less enthusiasm.
The grey market trends reflect the overall investor sentiment towards these new listings. As the week progresses, market participants will be closely monitoring these developments, which could significantly impact trading dynamics in the primary market.
SME IPOs and Their Launch Dates
In the SME sector, activity remains steady with several IPOs scheduled for launch. Neptune Logitek will open its Rs 46.62 crore IPO on December 15, with subscriptions closing on December 17. The shares are priced at a fixed rate of Rs 126 and will be listed on the BSE SME platform, with Galactico Corporate Advisors serving as the lead manager.

On the same day, Global Ocean Logistics India will also open its IPO, offering shares priced between Rs 74 and Rs 78. This Rs 30.41 crore issue will be listed on the BSE SME exchange and is managed by Marwadi Chandarana Intermediaries.
Market Outlook for the Week Ahead
As the week unfolds, the focus will remain on the anticipated listings of around 15 companies, making it one of the busiest weeks for IPOs this year. The performance of high-profile listings like ICICI Prudential AMC, along with other notable entrants such as Corona Remedies and Park Medi World, will be closely watched.
