Bharti Hexacom share price outlook
Speaking on Bharti Hexacom share price, Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP — Research at Mehta Equities said, “Despite 100% OFS, Bharti Hexacom listed above street estimates. Healthy listing is justified after receiving a solid response on the last day of its issue biding wherein QIB (48.57x) and NII (10.51x) investors looked more aggressive to grab midcap telecommunication growth story followed by muted retail investors interest who bided only 2.81 times to the allotted quota. Overall it got oversubscribed by 29.87x.”
The Mehta Equities expert said that the long-term term investors got a great opportunity to hold mid-cap telecommunications solutions providers and to play long-term India’s telecom structural ARPU growth story. Furthermore, Bharti Hexacom’s anchor book showcases top global investors such as Capital Group, Fidelity, Blackrock, and ADIA participating ahead of the opening of the IPO which gives all other investors more comforts to block money for the long term.
