Jio IPO or Reliance shares? What's better deal for future money gains if you've ₹14000 to invest — Experts suggest

So, one should have both shares in one's portfolio. However, in the case of the availability of a limited amount, I would suggest a long-term investor to go for the Reliance Industries shares, instead of applying for the Jio IPO and waiting for the allocation of shares.”Advising the long-term investor with ₹14,000 in hand for investing in Reliance Industries shares, Avinash Gorakshkar, Founder of Avinash Mentor Research, said, “The market is expecting the benefit of value unlocking for RIL, as it holds around one-third stake in Reliance Jio Platforms.

So, this rally in the RIL shares can be attributed to the Jio Platforms IPO subscription opening.”Gorakshkar said that even after value unlock from RIL, the balance sheets of these two companies would be connected due to RIL's strong two-thirds shareholding in Jio Platforms. Good financial performance would continue to be reflected in RIL's balance sheet.Jio IPO to fuel Reliance sharesExpecting this value unlock rally to continue further, Avinash Gorakshkar said, “The market is estimating around ₹350 to ₹500 per share rise in RIL shares due to the value unlock.

However, much will depend upon the kind of listing Jio Platforms IPO receives.”“Reliance Industries' share price today is ₹1209, and it is expected to touch ₹1,550 to ₹1,700 by the end of this financial year. So, my suggestion for the investor is to go for the definite one and buy Reliance Industries shares, because in this choice, the investor won't have to wait for the share allocation,” said SEBI-registered market expert Anuj Gupta.“One may say that an investor should go for the IPO option, and in case he or she fails to get Jio shares through the allotment process, then this open market option for the RIL shares can be exercised.

But, in this scenario, the investor may have to buy RIL shares at a higher rate as RIL shares are rising on the strong response to the Jio IPO,” Gupta added.What if the investor has a short-term view?However, stock market experts maintained that RIL shares are preferable for only those investors who have a long-term view. For a short-term investor having just ₹14,000 in hand, the Jio IPO should be his or her obvious choice as the Jio IPO listing may take place around ₹1350 to ₹1400.Speaking on the Jio IPO listing price prediction, Avinash Gorakshkar said, “The market is expecting Jio Platforms IPO listing price in the range of ₹1350 to ₹1400, depending upon the market mood.”So, an investor with ₹14,000 in hand and a short-term view should go for the Jio IPO, as it may increase their money by up to 25% in just one week.Jio Platforms IPO GMP todayAs the grey market premium (GMP) is one of the major indicators of an IPO's listing price, it is important to see what Jio Platforms' GMP reflects today.According to market observers, Jio Platforms' IPO GMP today is ₹280, ₹20 higher than yesterday's ₹260.
