- Grey-market premium widens or turns negative.
- Broader equity-market volatility rises, reducing appetite for high-growth IPOs.
- Track daily category-wise bidding, especially QIB and non-institutional investor participation in the final session.
- Monitor grey-market premium and changes in secondary-market valuations of logistics, e-commerce, and new-age technology peers.
- Assess whether anchor-investor participation and analyst commentary validate the IPO valuation versus growth and profitability expectations.
- Watch for post-listing use-of-proceeds updates tied to network expansion, warehousing, technology investment, and acquisitions.
