The crucial question that arises in everyone’s mind is whether to hold onto the shares or book profits. Considering the current market conditions the broader indices have slipped from their all-time high levels, investors who applied for listing gains have already earned 90% on the listing day alone and can choose to book the profit it has generated.

On the other hand, considering the high demand where there are currently only buyers available and no sellers ready to sell, investors with a higher risk appetite may choose to hold the shares for the medium to long term, which could prove beneficial.
