In the grey market, the premium for Hyundai Motor India’s unlisted shares has been on a steady decline. The company’s shares were trading at a premium of Rs 25 against the upper end of the IPO price of Rs 1,960, reflecting a grey market premium (GMP) of 1.28 per cnet. Today’s GMP is significantly lower than the Rs 147 recorded on October 9, when Hyundai Motor announced its price band, revealed the sources tracking grey market activities. IPO GMP generally reflects investor sentiment and demand, with a higher GMP indicating strong demand and potential for listing gains. That said, GMP is an unofficial and unregulated market indicator, subject to factors such as market conditions, company fundamentals, and investor enthusiasm.


Notably, Hyundai Motor India’s IPO marks the first time in two decades that a carmaker has gone public in India, following Maruti Suzuki’s listing in 2003. With this IPO, the Seoul-headquartered company will make its first stock market debut outside South Korea.

Hyundai Motor has set the IPO price band at Rs 1,865–Rs 1,960, with a lot size of seven shares. Investors can bid for a minimum of seven shares and in multiples thereof.
