Here are some FAQs on the IPO grey market.

So let’s take a read

What is Grey Market Premium (GMP)?

Grey Market Premium is easy to understand. It is the premium amount at which shares and applications are bought and sold before they are available on the stock exchange.

The IPO market is streaming at a high today. The NSE and BSE IPO grey market premium has a significant role in determining the subscription.

Grey Market Premiums are also attached with the words ‘Buyer’ or ‘Seller’. They tell the price either at which buyers are willing to buy shares or the price at which sellers are willing to sell their IPO shares.

Dear Friends the grey market premium is an over-the-counter or unofficial market. Here the new shares or the shares of the company bringing the IPO are bought and sold even before their listing on any of the exchanges.

The grey market assists in the price discovery of the stock.

The premium can be positive and negative depending on the demand and supply of shares. If the premium is high, more investors will apply for an IPO. On the other hand, if the premium is low or negative, fewer investors will apply for the IPO.

These are not actual shares of the IPO But something like unofficial towards the IPO.

So, let us understand this with the help of an example

Example of Grey Market Premium

Here, we will take two different situations.

• Suppose the issue price of Reliance Nippon is Rs.250. The grey market premium of Reliance Nippon is Rs.50. In the given situation, the premium is positive. Because of a positive premium, the buyers are ready to purchase the shares of Reliance Nippon at Rs. 250 + Rs. 50 = Rs. 300

• Suppose, in this situation, the grey market premium of Reliance Nippon is Rs. -20. The issue price is Rs. 250.  Since the grey market premium here is negative, it means that the sellers are ready to sell the shares at a discount of Rs. 20 i.e. Rs. 250 – Rs. 20 = Rs. 230

The fluctuation in the premium keeps on happening. Until the shares are listed for trading on the exchange, action in the grey market premium price continues. In addition, an investor can also take the delivery of shares by purchasing the shares of the IPO company on a listing day.

IPO Allotment Tips

Why do IPOs trade in the grey market before listing?

Firstly, I would like to tell you that the grey market is not an official platform where interested traders can bid and offer shares of the forthcoming IPO.

What are Kostak rates?

A kostak rate is the amount in which one pays for the IPO before the IPO is listed on the stock market.

It is a premium one gets by selling the IPO in the grey market.

It is a colloquial word for the prices of an application before the actual issue or the allotment.

The minor difference between Kostak and GMP.

• The rate at which one gets a premium by selling his/her shares which are allotted in IPO applications in the grey market is called Kostak.
• The premium which is generated in this Grey market by this trading is called GMP (Grey Market Premium). GMP is useful to estimate the opening price of the IPO while listing.

What is Subject to Sauda?

If someone buys an IPO on the subject to sauda price this means they will get the said amount In this one cannot fix their profit as it depends on the allotment. Again if one gets an allotment and he or she sells the application for around Rs.10000 and the profit goes high on listing day around Rs.15000 then one should pay Rs.5000 to the guy who bought the application.

In simpler words, it is a kind of deal in the IPO grey market in India. Unofficially, an investor can sell an IPO Application to a buyer at an agreed price (Kostak Rate) before IPO Shares are listed in the stock market. If the seller gets an allotment, he will get Rs 5000.

Who are the interested parties in the grey market?

• HNI investors– It gives them an idea regarding the appetite for the stocks
• IPO financiers– The grey market provides them with an idea regarding whether the financing in IPO is a lucrative business proposal.

Does SBI regulate the grey market?

As stated above, the Grey market is not an official platform that operates outside the ambit of the SEBI regulation.

Any trade, transaction, or bid done under the grey market is not authorized or approved by the regulator or any of the stock exchanges.

How can investors make the best of the grey market?

The grey market is an unofficial trading platform that operates outside the purviews of the SEBI regulation.

Hence all transactions are in the form of the forward transaction and are exposed to the counterparty risks and uncertainty.

At best, one can consider the grey market price as an indicator of the listing price. It is advised that do not take the (GMP) grey market too seriously, as such a grey market is subject to manipulation.

Since it is an unwritten accord between the two parties, it solely depends upon the trust between the broker and the investor.
