GMP vs Listing Accuracy Study 2026

This page analyses IPO listing outcomes in comparison with their Grey Market Premium (GMP) before listing. The objective is to examine how grey market sentiment and demand expectations translate into actual listing performance.

The study tracks key indicators such as GMP accuracy, GMP direction, expected listing price, and the variance between GMP expectations and actual listing results.

For day-to-day changes in GMP, investors can track live and upcoming issues in our GMP Today section, which is updated regularly.

And for all the IPOs of 2026, check our Latest IPOs of 2026 section which has detailed information about all the IPOs. 

 GMP is an unofficial market indicator and is not regulated by SEBI, NSE, or BSE. It should not be treated as a reliable predictor of IPO listing performance.

GMP Direction Accuracy by Segment

This section of the study records segment-wise IPO data in one place, showing the percentage of IPOs that listed in the correct GMP direction, along with the average GMP and average listing gain for both Mainboard and SME IPOs.

SegmentIPOs (GMP ≠ 0)Correct DirectionIncorrect DirectionDirectional Accuracy (%)Avg GMP (%)Avg Listing Gain (%)
Mainboard1310376.922.361.04
SME201467017.1514.51

Segment-wise accuracy is calculated only for IPOs where GMP ≠ 0. Average GMP and Listing Gain are calculated for the same set of IPOs to maintain consistency

Average GMP %: Mainboard vs SME IPOs listed by March 2026

In 2026, SME IPOs recorded a higher average GMP (17.15%) compared to Mainboard IPOs (2.36%).

Avg Listing Gain % Mainboard Vs. SME IPOs listed till March 2026

In 2026, SME IPOs recorded a higher average listing gain (14.51%) compared to Mainboard IPOs (1.04%).


Key Observations from GMP Behaviour

1. GMP Dreams vs Reality

GMP shows 11% expectation, but actual listing gains are just 6%. The market delivers almost half of what it promises

2. Mainboard vs SME Reality

Mainboard IPOs: Higher returns + better predictability SME IPOs: Lower returns + weaker accuracy Not all IPOs are worth the same risk

3. GMP = Coin Toss

Directional accuracy is just 51%, Blindly trusting GMP can be dangerous

How the GMP vs Listing Accuracy Study 2026 is Maintained

The GMP data is sourced from our GMP Today hub page. IPO-related data is taken from our Latest IPO Calendar, where all IPO details are consistently published and updated. Additional validation is done using our individual IPO review pages, which contain comprehensive information for each IPO.

GMP variance is calculated by:

GMP Variance (%)  = ((Listing Price − Expected Price) ÷ Expected Price) × 100

Overall GMP Accuracy Summary

The Overall GMP Accuracy Summary table includes all listed IPOs.

  • Average GMP (%) is calculated across all IPOs, including those where GMP was zero or neutral (NIL)
  • Average Listing Gain (%) represents the average of listing gains/losses across all IPOs

This section provides a broad market overview, not predictive accuracy.

GMP Directional Accuracy

The GMP Directional Accuracy table includes only IPOs where:

  • GMP ≠ 0 (i.e., a clear signal exists)
  • Correct Prediction: GMP direction matches actual listing direction
    • Positive GMP → Listing Gain
    • Negative GMP → Listing Loss
  • Incorrect Prediction: GMP direction does not match listing outcome

Directional Accuracy (%) = (Correct Predictions ÷ Total IPOs with GMP ≠ 0) × 100
