Mumbai: Electronics Mart India’s initial public offering investors have reason to celebrate as the company debuted on the stock market on Monday with a significant premium of more than 50% over its issue price.It was listed with 52% and 53% premiums over its issue price on the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange, respectively, exchange data showed. The price band for the shares was kept with an upper band of Rs 59 during the IPO.During the stipulated window for the public issue worth Rs 500 crore, which closed on October 7, the shares of the company received bids totalling a whopping 71.93 times.”The company’s strong listing can be attributed to strong interest from investors, reasonable valuations, and a sanguine growth outlook. The company is the 4th largest consumer durable and electronics retailer in India with a leadership position in South India, having the majority of its stores located in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh,” said Pravesh Gour, Senior Technical Analyst at Swastika Investmart.”Further, the company faces significant competition from players like Reliance Retail, Croma, etc. Therefore, we advise investors to lock in listing gains, and only aggressive investors should consider making a long-term commitment to the company. Those who applied for listing gains can maintain a stop loss of Rs 77″, added Gour.Proceeds from the fresh issue are likely to be utilized to fund the expansion of retail stores and warehouses, to fund the incremental working capital requirement; and for re-paying/pre-paying certain borrowings availed by the company.The consumer durables (which includes large consumer durables, mobile phones, and smaller appliances) retail market is estimated at Rs 3-3.2 lakh crore in FY22, said brokerage firm Choice Broking.”This market has clocked a business growth of around 12 per cent CAGR between FY17-20, mainly on the back of increasing disposable incomes, lower penetration, widened product base, competitive pricing, lowering replacement cycles and an expanding product portfolio. Going forward, the consumer durable appliance market is anticipated to grow by 10-12 percent CAGR over FY22-27 to reach a size of Rs. 4.8-5.3 lakh crore,” the brokerage said.Electronics Mart India is a major consumer durables and electronics retailer in India with a leadership position in South India. The scale of operations and long-standing relationships with leading consumer brands enable the company to procure products at competitive rates.

Ashika Stock Broking view on market: Avoid trading aggressively amid global nervousness.
Tirthankar Das, technical & derivative analyst, retail, Ashika Stock Broking Ltd: On the technical front, Nifty formed a long negative candle on the daily chart, resembling closer to a dark cloud cover which has a bearish implication and indicating of further weakness ahead. On the oscillator front, the 14-period RSI has witnessed a sell crossover and presently trading below the 60-level mark and turned flattish indicating of sluggish momentum for the short to medium term. Thus, one needs to avoid trading aggressively amid global nervousness. Considering the present situation, a bare minimum correction of 23.6% of the entire rally from 15,183 to 18,096 comes around 17415 followed by 38.2% correction at 16990. However, on the medium-term perspective price structure indicates of continuance of positive bias and our domestic Index is likely to head towards 18,300 in near term as it is the swing high of January 2022. Nifty also registered a bullish golden crossover in August (50-DEMA crossing above 200-DEMA) implying major shift of momentum from a medium-term perspective. During the day index is likely to open on a flat to negative note tracking weak global cues. However, the index is expected to rebound post initial blip as strong intraday support placed at 17400-17450. Hence, use intraday dip for creating long position for the target of 17865-17900

Angel One on Nifty: Overall sentiments are likely to remain upbeat in the near term.
Sameet Chavan, chief analyst-technical and derivatives, Angel One Ltd: The global weakness has embarked on some selling in our equity space, but the bulls of D-street were resilient to let go of the opportunity and firmly bought the dips. Technically, the positive structure has been shaken a bit as the technical swing support of 17350 got breached decisively. At the current juncture, the 21 DEMA and the recent unfilled gap around 17380-17520 are expected to act as an immediate hurdle for the index in the comparable period. While on the downside, 17150-17200 is expected to cushion any sort of fall, followed by the sacrosanct support of the unfilled gap around the psychological mark of 17000.Going forward, a close tab should be held on the global and domestic macro developments. The overall sentiments are likely to remain upbeat in the near term, wherein any minor dip could be utilized as an opportunity for the bulls to add long positions. We might also witness significant traction outside the indices in the broader market. Hence, it’s advisable to keep focusing on such potential movers, which are likely to provide better trading opportunities.

On the upside Nifty need to sustain above 17350-17390 with some authority for the bulls to strengthen their stance.
