The performance of the stock had even defied projections made by analysts who had expected Burger King to list at around 70-75 per cent premium over issue price.
"Such listing was in line with our expectation as the company issue was priced at a significant discount compared to listed peers such as Jubilant FoodWorks (Domino's Pizza) and Westlife Development (McDonald). Short term investors can book profit. We advise long term investors to stay invested in the company as there is ample scope available for the company to increase its business in India," Keshav Lahoti Associate Equity Analyst, Angel Broking Ltd said.
