It is still very big puzzle for me what price it actually deserves, though it is very prominent food sector overall, but there are much more value buys already available example if we take ITC itself, it is value bet with multiple segments also with western snack business as one vertical.. Also, if bikaji so successful in equity markets, why the siblings will spare this for long, companies like Haldiram, Bikano, Bikaneer etc etc etc. will queue up in the market in coming months or years., In south at least, this brand or packaged ethnic snacks consumption is very very less, almost everybody prefer to walk into a conventional street corner sweet shop and get some snack which is freshly made instead of something with preservatives and nitrogen gas puffy packed.. no difference with even financial state of people in this, middle class buy from small shops, riches buy from organized big sweet shops, thats it.. Technically this segment is too general and anyone can enter (local companies) easily, Until my recent abroad trips, I never know there is a Bikano company, and until IPO, same with Bikaji... But in South, everyone knows Haldiram, exists from many years in markets. These are only based on my personal experience / keen observations around me, not for discouraging the Bikaji investors / any investing decision. Disclr: I sold 4 retail lots on listing day, Happy to be proven wrong here and wishing long term investors to mint more money in coming days.
Very poor listing. Subscription figure and demand was great in all categories compared to Medanta.
Medanta rocking and Bikaji sinking. 80x QIB demand also remain failed to generate 10% listing gain. Surprising to close below listing price.
Stay away

@Sinewave, just don't go only by the numbers. Issue Size: Bikaji - 881 cr vs Medanta - 2200 cr Medanta issue is 2.5 times bigger than Bikaji. If we see actual equivalent figures with factor of 2.5 then Bikaji (QIB-80; NII-7; Retail-4.7) vs Medanta (QIB-72; NII-10; Retail-2.2) Medanta demand was equally good as Bikaji. Only difference is Bikaji issue price was greedy at 120 PE ratio leaving not enough on the table for listing gains. Irrespective of listing gains, both Bikaji and Medanta are good long term bets.
Today Deepak Agarwal MD has given interview to Zee business and said cagr will be 20% for next 1-3 years and margins will also be double digit and today delivery percentage is Aprox 50%. I have not sold shares allotted in ipo.
Just an humble opinion from a learner. It's always wise to accept market's decision. Should exit whenever one gets verdict on listing day. Going against it will always lead to regret. Better to utilise opportunity when given one (exit). Market is due for correction and it's not wise to hold an Ok listing IPO. Just a small lesson learnt in few IPOs.

@AmateurInvestor, well all I can say is that you should have held the shares. Though I had to sell today due to shortage of funds.. otherwise I would have kept them for long.
tepid listing as expected sold half and rest hold for the target of 350 or more.

Closing can be lower than listing. Better to exit early.

In my view, expected listing range is around 340 to 345 approx... Whoever allotted, try to hold your shares and don't run for selling in preopen or after listing, try booking partial profits only instead of complete sell.... QIB subscription 80 times should definitely create good demand...FMGC sector normally carries high PE so shouldn't be much worry here of high PE....hold for some months for 380-400 targets....or book partial profit above 350 in short term...
@lokes bhai mere pas 800 shares hai bikaji k... aaj intraday mei 345 - 350 touch kar sakta hai kya ? please suggest .

sold my 500 shares today from my 1 BHNI application as it reached near first target of 380....holding remaining 200 only now....will sell them above 400.... good movement in last 2 days.... der aaye durust aaye :)
@Lokes... good shot... Why don't you try to keep some free share for long?? I think this approach can unlock the reward at full potential if we forget for long, where risk is less / zero since free shares, just opinion... though it will work only for fundamentally good companies, need to be very selective in this approach.

@aspirant, there is nothing like free share. If you leave some shares it means that you have invested your profit money in the stock. So, if you say you are confident about business and growth then why to sell some stocks. And if we feel it's risky, then why to risk your money in such stocks.

@ipogainer: you are right, nothing like free its my profit money only... @aspirant: yes you are right regarding hold for longer but as you said its good for fundamentally strong companies... Here my target was 380-400 only in short term as mentioned which is achieved so i am selling... Sold 50 more at 402 rs on Friday...now 150 left, will sell them too soon... I am taking actions as per my targets, capital management, company profile and future prospects everything...
