India's Zetwerk rises over 5% in trading debut after $518 million IPO
Zetwerk stock listed at ₹159.25 on the NSE, compared with its issue price of ₹151 per share
Zetwerk Manufacturing, a firm specializing in industrial and consumer goods, witnessed a 5% rise in its shares following its successful initial public offering (IPO) in India. The IPO raised $518 million, with Zetwerk's stock trading at 147.4 rupees, valuing the company at 251.7 billion rupees during the trading debut on Friday.
Analysts highlight the company's unique hybrid platform, resilience across multiple industries, and strong order book as key factors supporting its long-term growth potential. However, Zetwerk remains loss-making and heavily dependent on third-party suppliers, according to SMC Global Securities analysts. The IPO was highly subscribed, with qualified institutional buyers bidding 3.06 times their allotted shares, while non-institutional and retail investors subscribed 1.4 and 0.73 times their portions, respectively.
Zetwerk's April-June quarter revenue from operations was ₹4,118 crore, with a loss of ₹64.129 crore. The company's IPO was led by anchor investors such as Capital Group, BlackRock, and Goldman Sachs, who raised ₹2,251 crore before the public listing.
