A notable indicator of market sentiment is the grey market premium (GMP).

Shree Tirupati Balajee Agro Trading Company Limited, established in October 2001, operates in the manufacturing and distribution of flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs), woven sacks, and other industrial packaging products. The company's focus on supplying crucial packaging solutions to both the domestic and overseas markets demonstrates a stable and potentially growing industry presence.
The company's financial performance in the fiscal year 2023-24 further reinforces its attractiveness. Shree Tirupati Balajee Agro Trading Company Ltd achieved a 16% increase in revenue and a remarkable 74% jump in profit after tax (PAT).
