Why This IPO Stands Out
AJC Jewel’s IPO is attracting attention due to its robust anchor backing, healthy financials, and a reasonable premium in the grey market. The company’s strong presence in the gold jewellery segment and clear use of funds for expansion and debt reduction position it as a notable SME listing this week.
