"Despite the premium valuation, the IPO received a positive response from investors. This is likely due to the company's strong brand recognition, diversified product portfolio, and pan-India presence," said Shivani Nyati, Head of Wealth, Swastika Investmart Ltd.

"After such a strong listing, investors may book profit; however, those who have a long-term investment horizon can keep a stop loss at 750," Nyati noted. (ANI)
