The Nomura India Investment Fund Mother Fund’s stake acquisition in Vishal Mega Mart is valued at Rs 324.96 crore, ET Retail reported. On December 18, Vishal Mega Mart listed on the exchanges at a price of Rs 104 on the National Stock Exchange and Rs 110 on the Bombay Stock Exchange. 

“Considering improving market sentiment and all other parameters, the company can list with a decent gain in the range of 20% to 25% from its issue price,” said Mehta Equities’ research analyst and senior vice president of research Prashanth Tapse, ET Markets reported. “Long term investors should consider holding the company for the long term, despite potential short term volatility and market risk. Non-allotted investors should consider accumulating shares if there are dips post listing due to profit booking attempts.” 

Vishal Mega Mart retails both ethnic and western wear for men, women, and children as well as accessories and lifestyle goods, according to its Facebook page. The business mainly caters to shoppers in non-metro locations looking for value products and aims to open stores in areas where it feels the market is under-penetrated.
