Shares of Groww’s parent company, Billionbrains Garage Ventures Ltd, made a commendable market debut, listing at Rs 114 on the BSE (14 % above the issue price of Rs 100) and Rs 112 on the NSE (12 % above). Despite the strong listing, analysts suggest that investors who were allotted shares should hold on rather than immediately book profits.
Key reasons for the “hold” recommendation include Groww’s robust growth potential in India’s digital broking and retail-investing ecosystem, its large active user base and scalable cost structure. However, analysts also advise that new investors or those seeking quick gains should exercise caution: the valuation is on the higher side (around 33-34 times FY25 earnings), and near-term risks remain — such as regulatory headwinds in the brokerage business and margin pressure.
For allotment holders, the consensus view is to hold for at least medium term given the structural story; for non-allotment investors considering entry, monitor for any meaningful dip post-listing.
In short: Groww’s listing has validated strong investor interest, but given the premium pricing and evolving business risks, holding the stock seems a more prudent path than booking immediate profits.
