In the grey market, the IPO was trading at par. Stock market experts noted that the shares of Zinka Logistics Solution were trading at neither premium nor discount in the grey market, reported Livemint.

This indicated that investors didn’t have enough confidence in the company’s listing and weak global cues impacted the sentiments in the market.

A grey market is an unofficial market that runs parallel to the stock market. It allows investors and traders an avenue to place their bids or trades before an issue makes its official debut on the stock exchanges. The grey market premium (GMP) is an indicator of investors' sentiments towards a listing.

A premium in the grey market means the investors expect the issue to make a strong debut in the stock market, while a discount indicates a muted opening expected from the maiden listing.

The company is the operator of BlackBuck, which is one of the largest digital platform for truck operators in the country.
