Last day! Hexagon Nutrition IPO ends; subscription tops 16x, GMP at 14%


Hexagon Nutrition IPO subscription, Day 3: Hexagon Nutrition continued to attract strong investor interest for its initial public offering (IPO), which closes for public subscription on Tuesday, June 9. The ₹138.87-crore maiden share sale of the research-oriented pure-play nutrition company was subscribed 16.09 times, led by robust demand from non-institutional investors (NIIs), who subscribed 40.98 times their reserved quota. 


Retail investors followed, subscribing 14.38 times their allotted portion. Qualified institutional buyers (QIBs), however, showed relatively muted interest, with the category subscribed only 0.41 times, or 41 per cent, of the shares reserved for them. 

Investor sentiment towards the issue has also been supported by activity in the grey market. According to sources tracking the unofficial market, the company’s unlisted shares were trading at ₹51.5 apiece, indicating a grey market premium (GMP) of ₹6.5, or 14.44 per cent, over the upper end of the IPO price band of ₹45 per share.

Hexagon Nutrition IPO details


Through its maiden share sale, Hexagon Nutrition aims to raise ₹138.87 crore via an entirely offer-for-sale (OFS). The issue comprises the sale of up to 30.9 million equity shares by promoters Arun Purushottam Kelkar, Subhash Purushottam Kelkar, Aditya Kelkar, and Nutan Subhash Kelkar. 


The company has fixed the price band at ₹42–₹45 per share, with a lot size of 333 shares. Investors can bid for a minimum of 333 shares and in multiples thereof. At the upper end of the price band, retail investors are required to invest at least ₹14,985 for one lot, while the maximum permissible retail application of 13 lots (4,329 shares) would entail an investment of ₹1,94,805.

Brokerages have expressed mixed views on the issue. Swastika Investmart has recommended the IPO for investors with a long-term investment horizon of two to three years, while advising those seeking listing gains to avoid the issue. 
Equivision, on the other hand, has suggested that investors may consider subscribing. It said that, given the company’s diversified nutrition portfolio, established manufacturing footprint, and industry positioning, the issue appears reasonably priced relative to listed peers. READ MORE

Cemindia Projects: Outlook

 


Government-led investments in roads, railways, metros, airports, ports, irrigation, and urban infrastructure have provided strong order visibility across sectors. The record capital expenditure allocation in the Union Budget 2026–27 further reinforces the long-term pipeline of projects, ensuring continued momentum in core infrastructure development, Cemindia Projects said in its FY26 annual report.

 


During FY26, Cemindia Projects secured new contracts totalling ₹14,821 crore across key sectors, including maritime structures, metro rail, airports, data centre, etc.

 


The broader infrastructure environment in India remains supportive. The country’s strategy reflects a calibrated shift toward scale, integration, and asset quality, with sustained public capital expenditure serving as a strong growth catalyst. Coordinated investments across roads, railways, ports and digital infrastructure are improving logistics efficiency and reducing transit times. 

 


The institutionalisation of integrated planning under the PM GatiShakti National Master Plan, alongside reforms in infrastructure financing and asset monetisation, has strengthened execution frameworks and encouraged private sector participation, the company said.

 


Enhanced transport connectivity is improving market access and enabling greater participation in global value chains. At the same time, infrastructure development is expanding to include digital public infrastructure and clean energy systems, supporting productivity and sustainability. Sustaining investment momentum and aligning infrastructure development with priorities such as decarbonisation and digitalisation will be critical to advancing India’s long-term development vision under Viksit Bharat@2047, Cemindia Projects said.

 


Looking ahead, Cemindia Projects is poised to enter its next phase of strategic growth while strengthening its position as a trusted partner in India’s infrastructure transformation journey, the company said.

Stocks to buy: Analyst at Kotak Sec bets on CarTrade Tech, Gravita India

Stocks to buy: Analyst at Kotak Sec bets on CarTrade Tech, Gravita India



Stocks to Buy Today: Recommendations by Shrikant Chouhan, Kotak Securities


CarTrade Tech – Buy


CMP – ₹2,070


Fair value – ₹2,300


Resistance – ₹2,120-₹2,220


Support – ₹2,010-₹1,880 

CarTrade Tech is a leading digital platform operating across automotive classifieds, vehicle auctions, and online marketplaces through well-established brands such as CarWale, CarTrade, BikeWale, Shriram Automall (SAMIL), and OLX India. The company has built a strong ecosystem connecting vehicle buyers, sellers, dealers, OEMs, financial institutions, and other stakeholders. While concerns around potential disruption from AI-driven search and commerce platforms have weighed on the stock price, we believe CarTrade’s extensive dealer network, proprietary automotive data, and value-added services provide meaningful competitive advantages that should help mitigate the impact of emerging technologies. 

 


A key driver of our positive outlook is OLX India, which remains the only marketplace of scale in India’s second-hand goods buy-and-sell market. Since its acquisition by CarTrade in 2023, OLX has maintained a stable monthly active user (MAU) base of 30–32 million, supported entirely by organic traffic. The platform benefits from strong network effects and limited direct competition, making it a unique digital asset within CarTrade’s portfolio. While historical GMV data is unavailable, annualized GMV transacted on the OLX platform was estimated at approximately US$3 billion in FY2025, and we believe this figure increased further in FY2026. 


Despite facilitating a large volume of transactions, OLX generated revenue of only ₹2.2 billion in FY2026, implying a take rate of roughly 0.7 per cent. This low monetization level presents a significant opportunity for future growth. We expect monetization to improve through initiatives such as the Elite Buyer Program, user verification services, premium listings, and other value-added offerings for buyers and sellers. Importantly, OLX has remained profitable since acquisition, reporting Ebitda of ₹67.1 crore, and PAT of ₹82 crore in FY2026. Given its asset-light operating model and 100 per cent organic traffic, we see substantial scope for margin expansion, with Ebitda margins expected to improve from 31 per cent in FY2026 to 37 per cent in FY2027 and 39 per cent in FY2028. 

While concerns over AI-led disruption have weighed on CarTrade’s core automotive classifieds business, we believe its deep dealer network, extensive automotive data assets, and value-added services should help protect its competitive position. The company is also enhancing customer and dealer engagement through AI-enabled solutions such as SuperDost. We believe OLX remains undervalued relative to other digital marketplace platforms. Accordingly, we value OLX at 35x FY2028 EV/Ebitda, resulting in an enterprise value of ₹4,800 crore for the business. This higher valuation for OLX is the key driver behind our revised fair value of ₹2,300 per share, leading us to upgrade CarTrade Tech to ‘Buy’.

Gravita India – Add


CMP – ₹1,547


Fair value – ₹1,910


Resistance – ₹1,620-₹1650


Support – ₹1,510-₹1,460

 
Gravita India is a leading recycling company engaged in the recycling of lead, aluminium, plastics, lithium-ion batteries, and waste tyres. Its flagship Lead Recycling business is complemented by Aluminium Recycling, Plastic Recycling, and Turnkey Projects segments. The company specialises in processing used batteries and various metal and plastic scraps into value-added products, supporting sustainable resource recovery and the circular economy. 


GRAV’s Q4FY26 PAT (-3.4 per cent yoy) was higher than our estimates, with better volumes partially offset by lower margins. Margins were impacted by the conflict in the Middle East, which contributes 10-15 per cent of volumes. 


GRAV has acquired Rashtriya Metal Industries (RMIL) for ₹560 crore, marking its entry into the copper segment. RMIL has a 31.2 ktpa capacity plant in Sarigram, Gujarat with revenues/Ebitda of ₹1,040/80 crore in FY2026. GRAV also plans to establish a 29.4 ktpa copper recycling plant in Mandvi, Gujarat, at a capex of ₹160 crore over the next 12 months. This would process scrap and backward integrate downstream assets of RMIL. In the next phase, GRAV may add additional 30 ktpa capacity at each of its copper plants in Gujarat. Utilisation at RMIL is 50 per cent, and should improve to 60-65 per cent, along with improvement in margins from ₹45/kg to ₹70/kg after full integration over FY2027-29. Working capital days should remain at 90 days since copper scrap is sourced largely from the West. 


Lead capacity of 80 ktpa in Mundra was commissioned in Q4FY26, with another 45 ktpa in Phagi likely to be commissioned in H1FY27 after regulatory approvals (delay of 1-2 quarters). India rubber capacity should also commence within similar timelines, with improving copper utilisations at RMIL in the 60-65 per cent range. The company expects volumes from these divisions to propel volume growth to 20-25 per cent on a yoy basis over the next 2-3 years. The Li-ion battery (LIB) pilot plant in Mundra is also operational, but the company does not expect any revenues from the segment in the near term. 


We tweak EPS by 0-1 per cent for FY2027/28E, factoring in foray in the copper segment. We are positive stock with Add rating with ₹1,910.
