What is Grey Market?

Grey Market is the term used to describe an unregulated over-the-counter market for trading IPO applications and IPO shares before the stock is listed at a stock market. This is a way for dealers to support their customers who may want to exit before listing.

This is also a way to boost the listing price and support the issue before listing happens. There are two kinds of transactions that happen in the IPO grey market:

• Trade of IPO shares at a grey market premium
• Trade of IPO application at a Kostak.

What is Grey Market Premium?

GMP or Grey Market Premium is the premium at which equity shares from the IPO are being traded in the grey market.

This could either be a positive or negative – meaning the trading price in the grey market is either higher or lower than issue price respectively, based on demand and supply for the shares.

Typically, investors who do not want to take the risk of allocation not happening through IPO will buy shares in the gray market and hope to flip the shares on listing to make a good profit.

What is Kostak?

Kostak is the premium at which IPO application is being traded in the grey market. Applications are typically traded after the application window is closed but the allotment has not yet been finished.

It is rare for someone to trade IPO application post-allocation. This is a way for investors to increase their chance of shares being allotted as the allocation process treats each retail application equally. An example (indicative) for kostak is:

Example:

IGL Limited
Issue Price: Rs 306 Per Equity Share (Maximum Bid price)
Lot Size: 45
Grey Market Premium: Rs 220 to Rs 230
Kostak (Rs 13770): Rs 680 to Rs 720

This means IGL IPO applications of Rs 13500 are being traded in IPO Grey Market at Rs 695 to Rs 720.

Despite the fact that this IPO’s Grey Market Premium is roughly 75% of the issue price, the ‘Kostak’ is just 5% of the application value.

As can be seen the Kostak is at a much lower %age than GMP. This indicates that the grey market expects the issue to be oversubscribed and expects on an average only one lot to be allocated per application.

Kostak rate is the amount an investor gets by selling his/her IPO application in grey market. This is the amount an investor stands to gain, irrespective of allotment status.

Subject to Sauda simply reflects the amount which an investor stands to get by selling his/her application for firm allotment. The key operative word here is firm allotment. In case of no allotment to the applicant, the sauda stands cancelled.

In case of ‘Subject to Sauda’ deal, while selling IPO application in the grey market, buyer and seller agree that deal is only valid if the seller will get the allotment. If the seller doesn’t get any shares in IPO process, the deal gets avoid.
