LIC IPO Review (Apply)

[Dilip Davda]  Ever since LIC announced its IPO plans, it became the talk of the town and more so after filing its DRHP in February 2022. Investors across the board were busy calculating its valuations considering its mammoth size of business and market share amidst competition. Now that it has filed RHP and its issue details are announced, its pricing mirroring embedded value and business growth trajectory appears reasonable. With its investor-friendly move with a discount to its pillars i.e. policyholders as well as retail investors, the issue has now turned more attractive. The government of India has again shown their investor-friendly gestures with such moves amidst troubling times like the Russia-Ukraine war, spiralling inflation, and weak global markets. Investors may consider investing in this mega insurer’s maiden mini offer for medium to long term rewards. Read detail review...

LIC IPO Questions

  1. The listing gain in an IPO share depends on many factors:

    • Demand and supply of IPO shares on the day of listing
    • IPO shares pricing
    • The market situation on the day of listing
    • The demand for IPO shares (IPO oversubscription)
    • Russia Ukraine conflict

    It is not easy to predict listing gains in LIC IPO due to its large size. We have not seen such a large IPO in India before.

     

  2. It is difficult to say at this point. The decision depends on many factors like issue price, discounts offered, and the market situation on the day of listing.

    Note that IPO share price varies a lot in the first few weeks of listing. It is considered a high-risk investment as one can make or lose big money.

     

  3. LIC IPO opens on May 4, 2022 and closes on May 9, 2022.

     

  4. The LIC IPO price is Rs 902 to Rs 949 per equity share. A discount of Rs 45 is offered to Retail Investors and Rs 60 to LIC Policyholders.

    The effective price for LIC IPO shares at the upper price band will be Rs 949 for QIB and NII, Rs 904 for retail, and Rs 889 for Policyholders.

     

  5. You could check if your LIC policy is linked to your PAN by submitting an online request. Check PAN availability status in LIC Policy. You would need the following details to check:

    • LIC Policy Number
    • Date of Birth
    • PAN Number

    If your policy is linked correctly, you will get a message like "Your PAN details are available in our records as per input provided for the policy number."

I think what you are saying is absolutely true.
After creating false trap (pulling back to 700 level), LIC again resumed it's downward journey.
Doesn't seem to have formed any base yet. God knows where it will stop.
Very surprising that big investors are unable to foresee hidden valuation which Authorities have assumed while fixing it's pricing.
Who will solve this mystery?????

Many times I mentioned that there is no institution demand and massive downfall is inevitable in this junk sandalwood.

I was going through MF holding in LIC and I found that between 12th May 2022 i.e Listing to 31st May 2022 Mutual funds have "NET SOLD" 9,88,500 qty of LIC shares in this period.
Those must be those who either participated in QIB quota or bought post listing. June MF data will clear the whole picture but till that time it will be too late to exit. Mostly probably available in 500 range.

Anchor book has benn opened to supply and see the downfall now. The game has just begun. Let's see till when SBI MF will save this suicidal share.

i agree we are all students and observers,
a bulk deal to sell LIC will be at a substantial discount.. a large open sale order will trigger a circuit algos are quite smart nowadays the only entity purchasing in bulk will be a govt entity .. in case of a lower circuit
no one will try to clutch a falling knife!

A $17 Billion loss puts LIC IPO among top Asia wealth destroyer.

Just imagine what would have happened if they would have come with their earlier price band of Rs 2000/per share.
Say thanks to Putin to initiate Ukraine's demilitarization.

The management’s communication with investors is confusing. They haven’t held an analyst call after the results. So there is no clarity on how the company is planning to grow, what is going to be its strategy.

This sandalwood is really stinky.

@ipo share ji
Today's Delivered quantity (NSE+BSE) is 34,39,719 which amounts to approx Rs 233 crores in value out of Rs 4,307 crores (total anchor portion).
Today supply is nothing in front of supply which is possible in near future.

Bulk is deal is never possible in LIC because to make bulk deal happen one has to buy shares worth Rs 2,113 crores because bulk deals means 0.5% of total value of company needs to buy/sell by an investor.
Block deal mostly happen two investors exchange shares in separate window on exchange and it mostly happen when promoter or big investor sell stake in open market with predetermined investor and price.
Bulk/block deal is not possible in LIC in near future.

Thank you 🙏

Nifty down by more than 3%, approx 500 points,
still, LIC is down by approx 5.5%
Anchor Investors' lock-in period is ended today and all of us were expecting heavy selling due to increased free float
still nothing like that (or kind of) happened
there are other stocks too, that fell more than or equal to LIC today
seems not so bad as what we were expecting

LIC IPO met with tremendous success

LIC valuation is “fair and attractive”

expressed concern over fall in share prices of Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and hoped that the insurer’s management would look into it.embedded value (EV) at the end of March will give a better picture of the insurer.

“The market has not got March EV hence it is conjecturing. Rate of future growth of insurance companies can only be assessed via EV.

“LIC would update its EV by June end,” the official said. As per the draft papers filed with Sebi, LIC’s EV was over ₹5.39 lakh crore as of September 2021.

The babu has questioned the markets logic and is now switching to IDBI disinvestment .. how will LIC rescue LIC ?? time will tell

Many scrips are getting hammered in the market sell - off. However, unlike most of them, only LIC has enjoyed so much of institutional support. Many experts here were claiming that since LIC is a flagship IPO that will determine the future of the divestment programme, the government will pull out all the stops to ensure a bumper listing. The question is that if LIC can't find any buyers despite the best efforts of GoI, what will happen when it is left to fend for itself and more supply hits the market in the later divestment rounds ?
