Plaza Wires sees a stellar debut. Should you hold the stock for more upside?



The shares of Plaza Wires debuted with a strong premium of 56% over the issue price. The listing was in line with expectations, given the overwhelming response to the IPO.

The offer was priced in the range of Rs 51–54 per share.

Analysts said the stock might give a decent upside even from the current levels as the wires and cables (W&C) is currently doing well.

“The market is growing leaps and bounds. Short-term investors may want to book profits, but those who are looking for the long run can hold the stock, which might repay with decent returns in the next six months,” said Avinash Gorakshakar of Profitmart Securities.

Plaza Wires, a leading manufacturer of wires and cables with a wide product range and a strong customer base, has demonstrated a strong track record of growth in the recent past.

The company’s product mix offers different types of wires and cables, and fast-moving electrical goods such as electric fans, water heaters, switches, and switchgear, Poly Vinyl Chloride insulated electrical tape, and Poly Vinyl Chloride conduit pipe and accessories.

Its competitive strengths include its product portfolio focused on various customer segments, distribution network, experienced management, and a dedicated employee base.”The company has a strong financial performance, with consistent revenue and profit growth in recent years. Investors may consider booking profit after this listing, while those who are looking for a long-term investment should maintain a stop-loss of Rs 68,” said Shivani Nyati, Head of Wealth, Swastika Investmart.

The IPO of Plaza Wires was booked nearly 161 times, making it the most oversubscribed issue of the year.
