India's primary market is set for an active week in the mainboard segment, with two public issues scheduled to open for subscription even as investor sentiment remains selective amid volatile equity markets and heightened global uncertainty. The spotlight will be on the IPOs of CMR Green Technologies and Hexagon Nutrition, which together aim to raise nearly Rs 770 crore.
The offerings come at a time when the IPO market has seen a lull for a few weeks in a tepid 2026. While several companies have secured regulatory approvals in recent weeks, many have put off their IPO plans due to market volatility.
The first issue to hit the market next week will be CMR Green Technologies. The company's IPO will open on June 3 and close on June 5. The issue is priced in the range of Rs 182-192 per share and aims to raise Rs 630.9 crore. Equirus Capital is managing the offering.
CMR Green Technologies operates in the metal recycling and circular economy segment, manufacturing recycled aluminium and zinc products for automotive and industrial applications. The company counts several leading automotive manufacturers among its customers and is positioned to benefit from increasing adoption of recycled metals and sustainability-focused manufacturing practices.
The company is expected to attract investor interest given the growing focus on resource efficiency, electric vehicles and environmental regulations that are encouraging the use of recycled materials.
The second mainboard issue scheduled for next week is Hexagon Nutrition.
The IPO will open on June 5 and close on June 9. The company has fixed a price band of Rs 42-45 per share and plans to raise Rs 138.9 crore through an offer for sale of 3.09 crore shares. Since the issue is entirely an OFS, the company will not receive any proceeds from the public offering.
Hexagon Nutrition is a research-driven nutrition company engaged in manufacturing micronutrient premixes, wellness and clinical nutrition products, therapeutic formulations and ready-to-use nutritional foods.
Founded in 1993, the company operates manufacturing facilities in Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Uzbekistan and exports products to more than 75 countries. Its products are sold through both business-to-consumer and business-to-business channels and include brands such as Pentasure, Obesigo, Pediagold and Nutrone.
The company has reported steady financial growth in recent years. Profit after tax rose to Rs 24.4 crore in FY25 from Rs 12.2 crore in FY24 and Rs 5.8 crore in FY23, while total income increased to Rs 331 crore.
At the upper end of the price band, Hexagon Nutrition is valued at around 15 times post-issue earnings.
Market participants will closely watch subscription trends in both issues as they could provide a signal on investor appetite for new listings after months of fluctuating market sentiment.
The broader market environment remains mixed. Indian equities have faced pressure this year from elevated crude oil prices, geopolitical tensions in West Asia and foreign institutional investor outflows. However, strong domestic liquidity and continued retail participation have helped support primary market activity.
Apart from the mainboard issues, the SME segment is also expected to remain active next week.
Genxai Analytics plans to raise about Rs 55 crore through its NSE SME IPO, which opens on June 5 and closes on June 9. The issue is priced at Rs 110-116 per share. Vahh Chemicals will launch a fixed-price SME issue worth Rs 13.5 crore between June 4 and June 8 on the BSE SME platform.
Merritronix will also tap the SME market with a Rs 70 crore issue opening on June 1 and closing on June 3.
While SME offerings continue to attract investor interest, listing performance has remained mixed in recent months, making subscription quality and valuation discipline increasingly important factors for investors.
