Should you invest in Meesho IPO?:Expert says, ‘Retail investors can consider it for listing gains’ as its share prices rise in grey market

Three Initial Public Offers (IPOs) are up for grabs. These subscriptions have kick-started on Wednesday, 3 December 2025, and would wind-up on Friday. If you are also thinking of coughing up money in either of these three public issues, first lets see what do experts say: Meesho IPO: According to Prasenjit Paul, Equity Research Analyst at Paul Asset Fund Manager of 129 Wealth Fund, retail investors can apply for Meesho IPO for listing gains. But for long term investment, there remains some challenges. According to Paul, upon listing, challenges to be faced by the company would be sustainibility of profits and rich valuations. Meesho appears to be the most attractive option. It is a fast-growing ecommerce platform with significant expansion potential, especially across India’s vast Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets, where digital commerce adoption continues to rise. The company has recently turned profitable, which boosts investor sentiment; however, the sustainability of these profits, along with its rich valuation, will remain important factors to track post-listing.

According to ‘investorgain’, Meesho IPO’s size is ₹5,421.20 crore. The IPO consists of ₹4,250.00 crore fresh issue and ₹1,171.20 crore offer for sale. As of Wednesday, the shares of the company were available at grey market at a premium of ₹43.5. Considering the upper limit of price band of ₹105-₹111.00, the shares may list at a gain of over 40% at the bourses. Aequs IPO may gain from ‘Made In India’ push: Paul is of the opinion that Aequs Ltd might benefit from the ‘Made in India’ manufacturing push. Aleit, the precision component manufacturer is a loss-making company. According to him, the IPO may be more suitable for investors who are comfortable taking higher risks in anticipation of potential long-term sectoral upside. Vidya Wires IPO is not attractive but carries current: Vidya Wires is a manufacturer of copper and aluminum wires. Vidya Wires IPO is being offered at a reasonable valuation, which may offer some comfort. While Vidya Wires may not offer the kind of strong listing pop that Meesho or Aequs might generate, it could appeal to conservative investors. – Paul, Equity Research Analyst ​
