AGS Transact Technologies Ltd IPO Review
AGS Transact Technologies IPO was earlier decided to be an OFS wherein the promoter will sell shares worth up to Rs 800 crore but later it was cut short to Rs 600 crore. Few reasons the deduction can be:
- The uncertainty in the market due to the rising Covid cases in the third wave.
- The recent correction in the prices of many IPOs has led a few firms to delay their issue or cut the issue size.
- Weak listings and subdued investor response by retail investors of many IPOs recently.
- Not so good listing of its listed peer.
- Globally the tightening of liquidity by central banks has underestimated the sentiment.
A more detailed review of the price band and valuations will be updated soon.
