• Decreasing NPA, major gold portfolio are plus while Net losses in last few years, recent Kerala flood are key risks.
• GMP (Grey Market Premium) is around 80 Rs as of 15th Nov. But the GMP is doubtful whether manipulative or real in this case.
• Considering all factors, my personal view is ‘neutral’ for listing gain, I recommend you to watch QIB & NII subscription response till 1 pm (last day) & based on figures take the decision on market response/sentiment.
