Bharti Hexacom, the subsidiary of Bharti Airtel, defied pre-listing predictions of a modest debut and delivered a strong performance on the stock exchanges. The company is listed at ₹762 per share, translating to a significant 33% gain over its issue price of ₹570. This impressive listing surpasses pre-listing expectations, which were tempered by concerns about the company’s financial performance and valuation.
Bharti Hexacom leverages the established brand reputation of Bharti Airtel, fostering investor confidence. The company operates in high-growth markets, particularly fixed-line telephone and broadband services, which may have attracted investors seeking long-term value.
