Talking about the listing, Zee Business Managing Editor Anil Singhvi on Thursday said that that Paytm stocks are likely to be listed below issue price of Rs 2,150. " Long term investors can buy if the shares fall between 8-15%," said Singhvi.

Earlier, Ant Group-backed Paytm had closed India's largest anchor round, raising Rs 8,235 crore from 100 institutional traders, together with the federal government of Singapore, BlackRock International Funds, Canada Pension Plan Funding Board and Abu Dhabi Funding Authority.

Paytm IPO comprised a fresh issue of equity shares worth Rs 8,300 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of shares worth up to Rs 10,000 crore.

The OFS, or secondary share sale, consisted of the sale of shares worth up to Rs 402.65 crore by founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma.

The company has set aside 75 per cent of the offer for QIBs, 15 per cent for non-institutional investors, and the remaining 10 per cent for retail investors.
