Should you buy, sell or hold CMR Green shares?
Shiavni Nyati, Head of Wealth at Swastika Investmart, said that while the impressive listing highlights positive market sentiment, investors should remember that the IPO was an Offer for Sale (OFS) only, meaning the company did not receive any fresh capital and existing shareholders reduced their stakes through the issue. Following such a sharp listing gain, some profit booking and short-term volatility are likely. Investors who received allotment may consider booking partial profits while continuing to hold the remaining shares for the medium to long term, given the company’s exposure to the growing recycled metals industry. New investors should avoid chasing the stock at elevated levels and wait for a correction or consolidation before considering fresh entries. Overall, caution is warranted after the strong debut. Investors may maintain a stop loss at a cost of Rs 192 to protect gains, as a sustained move below this level could indicate weakening momentum, she added.
