Shares of three companies made mixed debuts on September 23. Hero Motors opened at a discount on the NSE and BSE after its Rs 1,000 crore IPO was subscribed 6.66 times. SS Retail listed at a 47.17% premium on the NSE, opening at Rs 624 against an issue price of Rs 424, and at Rs 639.10 on the BSE, a 50.73% premium.

Jindal Supreme listed at Rs 120 on the NSE, a 29% premium over the issue price of Rs 93, and at Rs 121.90 on the BSE, a 31% premium. The company's Rs 125 crore IPO was subscribed 181.07 times. The IPO comprised a fresh issue of 1.07 crore shares worth nearly Rs 100 crore and an offer for sale of 26.86 lakh shares worth about Rs 25 crore. Proceeds will repay debt and for general corporate purposes.
Coverage across all outlets is uniform straight reporting, with no partisan framing. NDTV Profit led with listing prices and subscription ratios for all three IPOs, while The Hindu Business Line and Free Press Journal focused on Jindal Supreme's debut, detailing the IPO structure and use of proceeds. The reports avoid commentary on valuation or investor sentiment beyond noting the strong subscription. The balanced reading is that the mixed debuts reflect divergent investor demand, with oversubscription levels varying from 6.66 times to 181 times. The next move is how the stocks trade in the coming sessions after the initial price discovery.
