Tamilnad Mercantile Bank listing: What should investors do?
Tamilnad Mercantile Bank has debuted at Rs. 495 i.e. ~6% below its issue price. The precarious legal challenges, the lack of complete clarity on the management’s long-term performance, and less than stellar subscription numbers are some of the reasons for its negative listing. Those who applied for listing gains can maintain a stop loss of Rs. 470. Long-term investors should wait for some quarters to let the dust settle, and in the meanwhile, we suggest investors go for the existing listed banks where the management’s track record and performance during multiple credit cycles are visible. In short, large-sized banks and a few mid-sized banks are the best to ride on the upcoming credit and economic growth cycle.
