Prashanth Tapse, Research Analyst at Mehta Equities, said investors looking for short-term gains may consider booking profits on listing, while those with a higher risk appetite may hold the stock for 12–18 months.

He said the company has built a strong presence in categories such as fashion, home and kitchen, and beauty and personal care, and its focus on unit economics positions it for long-term growth. "At the upper price band of Rs 111, the valuation appears reasonable relative to listed new-age technology peers," he added.

Meesho operates an asset-light e-commerce platform focused on affordable fashion, home and kitchen, beauty and lifestyle categories. The platform connects consumers, sellers, logistics partners and content creators.

Narendra Solanki, Head of Fundamental Research – Investment Services at Anand Rathi Shares and Stock Brokers, said the company’s profitability will depend on cost discipline and marketing efficiency. He advised investors who received allotments to book partial gains on listing and hold the remaining shares for the long term.
