Augmont Enterprises made a strong stock market debut, listing at ₹961 on NSE, a 22% premium over its IPO price. The stock saw follow-up buying and crossed the ₹1,000 mark, delivering nearly 28% gains for investors at the day’s peak. Pawan Nahar, Business Today, explains why the listing was below the roughly 35% premium indicated by the grey market. Recent weakness in gold prices weighed on sentiment around the precious-metals platform. Despite the strong debut, brokerage firms remain positive on Augmont for the long term, citing rising demand for precious metals in India. Investors now face the key question: hold the stock or book listing gains?
