Ather Energy share price rebounds post poor listing, trades above IPO price. What should allottees do?
Ather Energy share price saw a recovery during Wednesday's trading session following a disappointing debut, although it continued to trade below the inITIal listing price. After a shaky start earlier in the day, Ather Energy share price rose by 7%. Ather Energy share price today opened at ₹ 289.90 apiece on the BSE, the stock touched an intraday high of ₹ 311.50, and an intraday low of ₹ 287.30 per share.
Ather Energy shares had a modest launch on the stock exchanges on Monday. On the NSE, the shares opened at ₹ 328, reflecting a 2.18% increase from the issue price of ₹ 321. Meanwhile, on the BSE, the shares began trading at ₹ 326.05 each, which is a rise of 1.57% compared to the issue price.
On its first day of trading, Ather Energy shares closed at ₹ 300 on the NSE, representing a 6.54% decrease from the IPO price of ₹ 321, and at ₹ 302.50 on the BSE, which is a 5.76% decline.
Arun Kejriwal, the founder of Kejriwal Research and Investment Services, expressed that the Ather Energy IPO listing was underwhelming, particularly considering the excitement exhibited by retail investors. This reflects the general sentiment surrounding Ather Energy. Consequently, if investors possess shares from the IPO, it is recommended to establish a stop loss in the range of ₹ 293-295. Assess whether to continue holding the investment or to sell and wait for the company's results for the March quarter.
Further, Mohit Gulati, the CIO and managing partner of ITI Growth Opportunities Fund explained that Ather Energy's muted listing highlights the sector's challenges and the need for patience from investors.
While its premium positioning and steady revenue growth are positives, near-term volatility is expected as the company invests heavily in capacity and market expansion. Ola's dominance and market cap strength will continue to cast a shadow on Ather's valuation until Ather can decisively break out with its own growth and profitability story, added Gulati.
Ather Energy IPO included a fresh issuance of equity shares worth ₹ 2,626 crore, along with an offer-for-sale (OFS) of 1.1 crore equity shares from promoters and other stakeholders. The OFS featured existing investors like National Investment and Infrastructure Fund II, Internet Fund III Pte. Ltd., IITM Incubation Cell, IITMS Rural Technology and Business Incubator, as well as promoters Tarun Sanjay Mehta and Swapnil Babanlal Jain, who will be selling their shares.
Of the total funds raised through the IPO, Ather intended to use ₹ 927.2 crore to build an electric two-wheeler manufacturing plant in Maharashtra, ₹ 40 crore to repay debts, ₹ 750 crore for investments in research and development, and ₹ 300 crore for marketing initiatives. These funds are planned to be utilised during the fiscal years 2026 to 2028.
Axis Capital Limited, HSBC Securities & Capital Markets Pvt Ltd, JM Financial Limited, and Nomura Financial Advisory and Securities (India) Pvt Ltd are acting as the book running lead managers for Ather Energy's IPO. Link Intime India Private Ltd is serving as the registrar for this offering.

Stocks to buy or sell: Dharmesh Shah of ICICI Sec suggests buying ABB India, Godrej Properties shares tomorrow
Stock market news: Equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty 50 fell by nearly 1% on Friday, influenced by weak global markets and a surge in Brent crude oil prices following Israel's assault on Iran's capital, which dampened investor sentiment. Experiencing a decline for the second consecutive day, the 30-share BSE Sensex plummeted by 573.38 points or 0.70%, closing at 81,118.60. The Nifty 50 experienced a drop of 169.60 points or 0.68%, ending at 24,718.60. In terms of weekly performance, the BSE benchmark decreased by 1,070.39 points or 1.30%, while the Nifty 50 fell by 284.45 points or 1.13%. Investors were hesitant to engage with riskier assets due to concerns over a potential full-scale war between Israel and Iran, coupled with outflows from foreign funds. On the technical front, Dharmesh Shah, Vice President at ICICI Securities, expects Nifty 50 to hold 24,500 on a closing basis. Shah has recommended two stocks to buy for short-term. Here's what he expects from Indian stock market next week, along with his stock recommendation. Equity benchmark pared early week gains tracking subdued global cues owing to Israel's military strike on Iran. Consequently, Nifty 50 settled at 24,718, down 1.1%. Mirroring the benchmark move, Nifty midcap and small cap snapped 4 weeks winning streak, down 1.2%. Sectorally, profit booking was observed in recently rallied rate sensitives like, realty, financials and auto while IT, Pharma regained lost ground. The weekly price action formed a bear candle while sustaining above key support zone of 24,500, indicating extended breather. Brent crude oil jumped 18% during the week ($78) tracking escalated geopolitical tensions in the oil-rich Middle East. The risk-off sentiment fueled the momentum in safe heaven gold, up 3.5% at $3440. Going ahead, we expect volatility to remain elevated tracking geopolitical worries. Hence, development of geopolitical concern coupled with US Fed policy would have major bearing on the market which would dictate further course of action. Further, it is important to note that despite elevated volatility Nifty 50 managed to hold key support threshold of 24,500 and staged a rebound. Thereby, in the coming week, holding 24,500 on a closing basis would highlight strength and open the door for further pullback wherein immediate resistance is placed at 25,200. In the last four decades there have seen six major geopolitical escalations. On each occasion it formed major bottom once anxiety around the event settled down. Investing in such panic reactions with long term mind set has been rewarding as index has witnessed double digit returns in subsequent three months. In the current scenario, post the kneejerk reaction, we believe market would stabilise. Hence, we advise dips should be capitalised to build quality portfolios from medium to long term perspective. Structurally, the elongation of rallies followed by shallow correction is a perfect recipe of bull market. In current scenario, over past 21 sessions index has retraced merely 23.6% of preceding 25 sessions 16% up move. Slower pace of retracement indicating robust price structure that bodes well for next leg of up move. On the broader market front, Nifty midcap is undergoing healthy retracement after 28% rally which should be used as buying opportunity based on following observations: a) Since April low, Midcap index has not corrected >6% while on the weekly chart it has not closed below its previous week's low. In current scenario, despite ongoing volatility, midcap index has been maintaining the same rhythm. b) Further, the ratio chart of Nifty 500/Nifty 100 has been inching upward that clearly indicates relative outperformance. c) Improving market breadth as currently 55% of stock are trading above 200 days SMA compared to last month reading of 30%. Key monitorable which would provide cushion to the ongoing up move: a) Development of geopolitical concern c) Brent crude is poised at immediate hurdle of $78. Lack of follow through strength would result into consolidation in 78-66 levels d) Despite current decline, Index VIX is trading below immediate hurdle of 16 e) Further weakness in US Dollar index f) Bilateral Trade Agreement between India and US The key support threshold of 24,500 for the Nifty 50 is based on lower band of past four weeks consolidation coincided with 50% retracement of recent rally (23,935-25,222) and Friday's panic low is placed at 24,473. Dharmesh Shah of ICICI Securities recommends buying ABB India, and Godrej Properties shares this week. 1. Buy ABB India shares in the range of ₹ 5,950-6,130. He has ABB India share price target of ₹ 6,860 with a stop loss of ₹ 5,648. 2. Buy Godrej Properties shares in the range of ₹ 2,350-2,470. He has Godrej Properties share price target of ₹ 2,748 with a stop loss of ₹ 2,218.
