Suryoday Small Finance Bank share price started off the first day of trading at a 4.2 percent discount at Rs 292 on March 26 on the National Stock Exchange amid weak market conditions and muted subscription to IPO.

The stock opened at Rs 293 on the BSE, down by 3.93 percent compared to issue price of Rs 305.
The weak market conditions partly led by FII selling and rising COVID-19 infections had dented sentiment in the primary market. The benchmark Nifty50 fell more than 7 percent from its record high seen in February.
Suryoday Small Finance Bank listed on the bourses just to meet the RBI guidelines which says the small finance bank has to get listed after the completion of three years from the receiving license.
