Synopsis
ESDS Software shares continue their strong post listing rally as investors track the stock's performance, IPO response, cloud business and future growth outlook.

ESDS Software Solutions shares hit the 20% upper circuit for the second straight day on September 7, extending the sharp gains seen after its stock market debut. The shares had listed at ₹757 on the NSE on September 4, marking a 76.46% premium over the IPO issue price of ₹429.
The stock was trading at ₹1,090.05, up 20%, during morning trade on September 7. The company's market valuation stood at around ₹12,776.6 crore on the NSE as the stock continued to attract strong buying interest after its listing.
ESDS Software had a strong debut on September 4 after its IPO received heavy investor demand. The public issue was subscribed 135.88 times on the final day of bidding, while the company had raised ₹216 crore from anchor investors.
The IPO was entirely a fresh issue of equity shares worth up to ₹720 crore, with the price band fixed at ₹408 to ₹429 per share. The strong listing and subsequent gains have pushed the stock well above its issue price.
ESDS Software plans to use ₹576 crore from the IPO proceeds to purchase and install cloud computing equipment and other infrastructure for its data centres.
The remaining funds will be used for general corporate purposes. The company operates across AI enabled cloud services, managed services, data centre infrastructure and software solutions.
The company is positioned in areas such as cloud computing, data centre infrastructure, cybersecurity and digitalisation, which are seeing rising demand in India.
Shivani Nyati, Head of Wealth at Swastika Investmart, said the long term outlook remains constructive but added that the sharp listing gains could lead to some near term profit taking as the valuation has moved ahead of fundamentals.
Anchorage Capital Fund's Anchorage Capital Scheme I sold 10.03 lakh shares, representing a 0.85% stake, at ₹757.44 per share for ₹76.01 crore.
Choice Equity has initiated a buy rating on ESDS Software with a target price of ₹1,550. The stock's next moves will be watched closely after its sharp post listing rally and the rapid rise above its IPO price.
