The upcoming week on Dalal Street is gearing up to deliver a flurry of activity in the primary market, with four fresh IPOs opening for subscription and as many as eleven companies making their stock market debut. For retail and institutional investors tracking India’s IPO calendar, this is a window packed with opportunities across diverse industries including jewellery retail, agro-based manufacturing, publishing, and real estate.
Among the highlights is the highly anticipated BlueStone Jewellery and Lifestyle IPO, opening on Monday, August 11, and closing on Wednesday, August 13. The Bengaluru-based brand, well known for its premium and contemporary jewellery offerings, is aiming to raise over Rs 1,540 crore. This includes a fresh issue worth Rs 820 crore and an offer-for-sale of Rs 720.65 crore. Priced between Rs 492 and Rs 517 per share with a minimum lot size of 29 shares, this IPO is expected to attract significant attention from both retail and high-net-worth investors. Axis Capital, Kotak Mahindra Capital Company, and IIFL Capital Services are managing the issue, with the listing slated for August 19.
Following closely is Regaal Resources, a company specialising in maize-based starch and speciality starch products. This Rs 306 crore IPO will be open from August 12 to August 14, with a price range of Rs 96 to Rs 102 per share and a lot size of 144 shares. The issue will include Rs 210 crore worth of fresh equity and Rs 96 crore through an offer-for-sale. Lead managers Pantomath Capital Advisors and Sumedha Fiscal Services are overseeing the process, with a listing expected on August 20.
The SME segment is also set to draw investor interest with two IPOs. Icodex Publishing Solutions will open its offer from August 11 to August 13, looking to raise Rs 42.03 crore with a price band of Rs 98 to Rs 102. Funds will be used to acquire office space, hardware, and for working capital. The company will list on the BSE SME platform on August 19. Mahendra Realtors and Infrastructure will follow, opening its Rs 49.45 crore IPO from August 12 to August 14, with a price range of Rs 75 to Rs 85 per share. The listing on the NSE SME platform is planned for August 20, with proceeds aimed at meeting working capital requirements and other corporate expenses.
Alongside these new offerings, the market will witness a series of high-profile listings. In the mainboard space, Highway Infrastructure is set to debut on August 12, followed by JSW Cement and All Time Plastics on August 14. The SME segment will see Essex Marine and BLT Logistics list on August 11, joined by Aaradhya Disposal Industries, Jyoti Global Plast, Parth Engineering Electricals, and Bhadore Industries on the same day. Later in the week, Sawaliya Foods Products and Connplex Cinemas will make their entry on August 14.
For investors, next week presents a wide range of opportunities to diversify portfolios, but careful assessment of valuations, business models, and long-term growth potential will be key. With market volatility remaining a factor, selective participation and focus on strong fundamentals will be crucial in making profitable decisions.
