Domino's fast food retail chain operator in India, Jubilant FoodWorks , has witnessed huge buying interest on the first day. The share closed at Rs 240.60, at a 65.93% premium over its issue price of Rs 145 on the NSE.

It has witnessed 73 bulk deals on the exchanges, including 50 deals on NSE and 23 on BSE.

The anchor investors, who had invested Rs 44 crore in Jubilant Foodworks' IPO, bought more shares in bulk deals on listing day.
