The Big Eyewear Debut That Has Everyone Looking

Imagine buying a pair of glasses today and owning a piece of the company that sold it — that’s the moment for Lenskart Solutions. As India’s biggest eyewear retailer heads for its IPO in late 2025, the buzz around its Lenskart IPO GMP Today (grey-market premium) is telling a story of expectations, emotions, and a market ready to stare into the future.

What Is “Lenskart IPO GMP Today” Telling Us?

When we talk about Lenskart IPO GMP today, we mean how much the unlisted shares are trading above the official issue price in the grey market. For this IPO:

• The company fixed the price band at ₹382-402 per share. 
• On the morning of opening, the GMP was reported around ₹48 over the band, suggesting about a 12% listing gain. 
• A few days earlier, it had surged to over ₹100, implying nearly a 27% uplift, before dropping.

So yes — Lenskart IPO GMP today is active, but somewhat cooled from its peak.

Why the Surge in GMP? Real-World Insights

There are real drivers behind the excitement:

• Lenskart reported a net profit of ₹297 crore in FY25 on revenue of ₹6,652 crore, a strong turnaround from a loss the year before. 
• The company is valued at around ₹70,000 crore via this IPO, which draws attention. 
• GMP spikes reflect investor optimism. For instance, a grey-market premium of ₹111 hinted at a listing price around ₹513. 

However — just as essential — the drop in GMP also signals caution creeping in.

The Caution Flags You Shouldn’t Ignore

It’s not all sunshine and lenses:

• The valuation appears stretched: P/E multiples of 230x have been cited. 
• Heavy reliance on imports: Lenskart sources 42% of its purchases from China in FY25.
• According to The Financial Express, GMP isn’t guaranteed listing gain: It’s speculative and subject to change. 

So while GMP tells one story, real investment outcomes may diverge.

Should You Apply? My Take

If I were talking to a friend: yes, this IPO is intriguing, but it’s not a sure bet.

• If you’re long‐term oriented and believe in the brand, growth of eyewear in India, and Lenskart’s omnichannel push, then this could be worth a look.
• But if you’re chasing a quick flip based solely on GMP, the cooling premium warns of lower chances of dramatic listing gains.

For me: I’d subscribe cautiously, not fill my portfolio with this alone. If it lists up 10-15% and you’re comfortable holding for the next 2-3 years, fine. But betting purely on “GMP magic” feels risky.

2025 Trend Check: Why This IPO Matters

2025 is shaping up as a big year for Indian IPOs. Lenskart’s listing taps into several key trends:

• Consumer brands with offline + online presence are catching investor attention.
• Health/eyewear demand is rising in India as vision issues become more prominent and the penetration of organised retail increases.
• GREY market premiums (GMPs) are becoming highly visible indicators of market sentiment ahead of listings.

In that sense, Lenskart IPO GMP today is more than just a number — it’s a reflection of how markets view Indian consumer growth right now.

Conclusion

I’ll be honest: I have a soft spot for this IPO. There’s something satisfying in buying into a home-grown brand you might personally walk into (I do, when I buy glasses). But I also feel a little nervous — the excitement around the GMP reminds me of the “hype” before many listings where reality didn’t match expectation. If I were you, I’d treat this as a smart speculative play, not a sure win. I’ll watch the listing, and if it delivers moderate gains and I believe in the long term, I’ll hang on. But I won’t rely on it to skyrocket overnight.

Here’s hoping your decision sees clarity — and maybe a nice listing gain.
Good luck!
