The Frenzy in Small and Medium Enterprises Listings
SME IPOs have recorded massive oversubscriptions and multi-bagger listing gains recently. However, these listings are highly illiquid and volatile. Analysts at SP RESEARCHVIA PVT. LTD. evaluate the structural risks of this segment.
Is it safe for retail investors to invest in SME IPOs?
SME IPOs carry high risk due to lower disclosure requirements compared to mainboard listings, and the minimum application lot size of ₹1 Lakh makes it harder to diversify. SEBI has cautioned against speculative manipulations.
Post-Listing Liquidity Challenges
Unlike mainboard shares that can be traded in single units, SME shares must be traded in lot sizes post-listing, which can lead to significant execution slippage and liquidity traps for retail traders.
