LIVE: Lenskart Solutions IPO GMP Slides 6%

The Lenskart Solutions IPO has captured investor attention as one of the most awaited public issues of 2025. However, the Lenskart Solutions IPO GMP (Grey Market Premium) has recently slipped by about 6%, showing cautious investor sentiment even as the IPO opens for subscription on October 31, 2025.

As per market reports, the Lenskart Solutions IPO GMP today is around ₹38–₹40, down from previous highs earlier this week.

Subscription Status and Market Sentiment

Allocation structure: 75% for Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs), 15% for Non-Institutional Investors (NIIs), and 10% for Retail Investors. Analysts expect strong institutional participation due to Lenskart’s brand strength and revenue growth.

However, the recent ~6% drop in IPO GMP signals short-term volatility amid broader market movements. Market experts advise focusing on long-term fundamentals rather than short-lived grey market fluctuations. Lenskart’s cash flows, scalable model, and brand presence support its long-term case.

Should You Subscribe?

For long-term investors, the Lenskart Solutions IPO offers exposure to India’s largest organised eyewear retailer with an expanding international footprint. The company’s tech-led approach, brand loyalty, and strategic expansion make it a potential long-term compounder.

Short-term traders should monitor subscription trends, GMP movement, and listing-day dynamics closely. The near-term GMP correction suggests caution, but investor optimism remains due to consistent financial performance and growth strategy.
