Shares of Aegis Vopak Terminals and The Leela Hotels (Schloss Bangalore) rebounded up to 10% on the BSE after a weak listing on Monday.
Aegis Vopak Terminals listed at Rs 220, a 6.4% discount to its IPO price of Rs 235. However, the stock quickly bounced back, hitting the 10% upper circuit at Rs 241.95.
Schloss Bangalore, which owns and operates luxury properties under the iconic "The Leela" brand, debuted at Rs 406 on the NSE and Rs 406.50 on the BSE, a discount of about 6.6% from the issue price of Rs 435. It later surged nearly 7% to reclaim the IPO price level.
Expert View
"Aegis Vopak Terminals listed at a discount due to muted investor enthusiasm despite strong institutional backing. With the retail and HNI segments under-subscribed, concerns around valuation were evident. Long-term investors may wait for further consolidation before entering, given the company’s robust expansion outlook," said Satish Chandra Aluri of Lemonn Markets Desk.
On The Leela Hotels, Aluri added, “Despite the strength of its brand and institutional interest, retail and HNI participation remained weak. The flat grey market premium had already signaled a subdued listing. Valuation concerns continue to weigh on investor sentiment.”
Aegis Vopak Terminals IPO Details
The IPO, entirely a fresh issue of 11.91 crore shares, was subscribed 2.09 times overall, driven by Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs), whose quota was subscribed 4.34 times. In contrast, the non-institutional investor (NII) and retail portions were subscribed just 0.32 and 0.70 times, respectively.
Aegis Vopak Terminals is a joint venture between Aegis Logistics and Netherlands-based Royal Vopak. The company operates LPG and liquid storage terminals at five major Indian ports—Haldia, Kochi, Mangalore, Pipavav, and Kandla—with a total capacity of 1.5 million cubic meters for liquids and 70,800 MT for LPG.
The Leela Hotels IPO Details

Backed by Brookfield-managed funds, the company owns five luxury hotels across Bengaluru, Chennai, New Delhi, Jaipur, and Udaipur. It also manages several other Leela-branded properties, with a total operational portfolio of 12 hotels and 3,382 keys, positioning it among India’s largest luxury hospitality operators.
Proceeds from the fresh issue will be used to repay borrowings at key group properties and for general corporate purposes.
