Multibagger Alert: 3 stocks listed last month have risen up to 400%

According to media reports, 40 Indian companies raised ₹59,412 crore through IPOs in CY2022, which is less than half of the ₹1,18,723 crore raised by 63 corporates in 2021. However, the overall performance of the new entrants was largely positive.

Last year, the Indian equity markets experienced extreme volatility as a result of mounting recession fears, high commodity prices, and interest rate hikes. Despite the wild swings in the markets, some new entrants have managed to generate multi-bagger returns.

Notably, three stocks that got listed in December last year have delivered exceptional returns in the range of 175–400 percent to date.

PNGS Gargi Fashion Jewellery stood at the top of the leaderboard. The stock, which went public on December 20, 2022, enjoyed a great debut, opening at an almost 90 percent premium of ₹57 compared to the issue price of ₹30 per share. Later, it ended the first day with a 99.5 percent gain at ₹59.9.

The stock has experienced a one-way spike since its listing, and it is now up by 398.8 percent at ₹149.65 apiece. The IPO received a tremendous response from investors, as it was subscribed 230 times.

The company is engaged in the retail business of costume and fashion jewellery under the brand name "Gargi by P. N. Gadgil & Sons," launched in 2021 under the "artificial jewelry" segment.

It offers a wide range of products from the costume and fashion jewellery segment for special occasions such as weddings and festivals to daily-wear jewellery for all ages, genders and across various price points.

Droneacharya Aerial Innovations is next on the list. The stock made a strong entry on December 23, 2022, on the BSE SME index. On its debut day, the stock soared 98.3 percent, going from its IPO price of ₹54 to ₹107.21.

Since its listing, the stock has reached the upper circuit limit each day to date. Even in Wednesday's trade, the stock remained locked at 5 percent upper circuit at ₹231.80 apiece. At current levels, the stock is trading 329.3 percent above its issue price.

The company provides a high-end ecosystem of drone solutions for multi-sensor drone surveys, data processing of drone data using robust high-configuration workstations, drone pilot training, and specialised GIS training.

The IPO of the Gujarat-based company received a healthy response from investors, as it was subscribed 347 times. At the current market price of ₹120.55, the stock is trading 167.9 percent above its issue price.
