Shares of Priority Jewels are set to make their stock market debut today, September 4, after the IPO received a bumper response from investors during its three-day bidding period. Ahead of the listing, the grey market premium (GMP) for the Priority Jewels IPO is currently around ₹30.
Considering the IPO’s upper price band of ₹200, the stock could potentially list at around ₹230, implying a premium of 15%. The strong GMP is also supported by the company’s reasonable valuation and favourable position in the jewellery industry.
Mahesh M. Ojha, Vice President of Research & Business Development at Kantilal Chhaganlal Securities Pvt. Ltd., said that at the upper price band, the issue is valued at approximately 20.5x FY26 PE, which appears reasonable considering the company’s growth profile and favourable industry outlook, although execution remains an important monitorable.
Ojha added that existing IPO allottees may consider booking profits, particularly if the stock delivers a strong listing performance. For fresh investors, he recommends waiting for one to two quarters to assess post-listing execution, margin trajectory, capacity utilisation and the impact of new growth initiatives. Investors can then review the stock based on its operating performance and prevailing valuation before taking a fresh position.
“Key growth drivers include debt repayment through IPO proceeds, expansion into lab-grown diamonds, new product categories, and strategic partnerships targeting emerging markets. These initiatives could support revenue growth and margin improvement over the medium to long term,” Ojha added.
