CAMS share listing gains may fall to 20% as volatility hits grey market premium

The volatility in market has cast a shadow over the listing of Computer Age Management Services (CAMS) stock on October 1. Grey market premium of CAMS share has reduced to Rs 300 from the earlier Rs 500 after Sensex and Nifty ended in the red during a volatile last week. In a six-day losing streak, investors lost Rs 11.32 lakh crore wealth till March 24.

On a weekly basis, Sensex crashed 1,457.16 points or 3.83 per cent, while Nifty tumbled 454.70 points or 4.04 per cent. The sudden crash in investor sentiment has pared likely listing gains of CAMS IPO.

The IPO which had a price band of Rs 1,229-1,230 may make its market debut at Rs 1,550 on BSE and NSE.

Jaikishan Parmar - senior Equity Research Analyst at Angel Broking said, "It is an asset-light business model. Hence, at end of the year, investor can expect a healthy dividend, and there is a possibility that dividends per share might increase every year. Considering strong revenue visibility, healthy financials, and generous dividend payout policy, investors can expect more than 20% listing gains."
