Should You Buy at Listing?
InvITs are income instruments, not high-growth equity plays. With GMP at ₹1 (0%), the market is not expecting a listing pop. Investors in InvITs should evaluate the projected distribution yield (quarterly cash payouts) against fixed income alternatives. If the annualised yield (expected 8–10% for infrastructure InvITs) is attractive vs. bank FDs, holding post-listing makes sense for income investors.
