Groww shares see profit booking after delivering 37% returns over listing price in two days

Stock broking firm Groww's shares saw profit booking on November 13 after delivering a whopping 37% returns over listing price in two days.

On November 13, Groww shares fell 12 percentage points from day's high to close trading 4.6% higher at Rs 137.45 apiece after rising as high as 17% on second day of their listing. At day's high, the company's market capitalisation was nearly Rs 1 lakh crore.

On November 12, shares of Billionbrains Garage Ventures, the parent of Groww, made a remarkable market debut by closing with a premium of nearly 31% against the issue price of Rs 100, including 12% premium listing.

Last week, the Initial Public Offering (IPO) of Billionbrains Garage Ventures received 17.60 times subscription on the final day of the share sale.

Billionbrains Garage Ventures garnered a little over Rs 2,984 crore from anchor investors on November 3.

The firm had fixed a price band of Rs 95-100 per share for its IPO, targeting a valuation of over Rs 61,700 crore (about $7 billion).

The IPO has a fresh issue of equity shares worth Rs 1,060 crore along with an Offer for Sale (OFS) component of 55.72 crore equity shares.

The company, which is backed by marquee investors such as Peak XV, Tiger Capital, and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, plans to use proceeds from the IPO to invest in technology development and business expansion.

Headquartered in Bengaluru, Groww filed draft papers in May with Sebi for an IPO through a confidential pre-filing route and received the markets regulator's approval in August.

Groww opted for the confidential pre-filing route, which allows it to withhold public disclosure of IPO details under the DRHP until later stages. This route is gaining traction among Indian firms aiming for flexibility in their IPO plans.

Founded in 2016, Groww emerged as India's largest stockbroker, with over 12.6 million active clients and a market share of over 26% as of June 2025.
