NCDEX’s New Platform: A Breakdown

The National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange (NCDEX) has received permission from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) to start a new platform specifically for mutual funds. This is a big step because it’s designed to help NCDEX later add services for stocks and stock options. Think of it as a test run for future offerings.

• NCDEX gained Sebi’s approval for a mutual fund platform.
• This platform will prepare NCDEX for offering equity products.
• ICICI Pru AMC IPO saw strong investor interest and subscription.
• Institutional investors heavily subscribed – around 3x.
• Corona Remedies’ shares jumped 34% on its successful debut.
• Wakefit Innovations shares declined significantly on its listing day.

ICICI Prudential AMC’s initial public offering (IPO) was incredibly popular, with investors subscribing to it almost twice as many times as the company planned. This shows strong confidence in the company’s future growth and performance.

Corona Remedies, a pharmaceutical company, had an outstanding debut, with its shares increasing by 34% after it started trading. This happened because its initial public offering (IPO) was massively oversubscribed – a 144x oversubscription.

However, Wakefit Innovations, a mattress company, experienced a drop in its stock price after it started trading. The stock price fell by as much as 9.23% during the first day of trading.
