Listed on the NSE in May 2024, Awfis shares debuted at Rs 435, reflecting a 13.58% premium on its issue price of Rs 383. The stock is currently trading at Rs 732, signaling strong investor confidence.

This incident underscores the company’s commitment to upholding compliance standards as it continues to scale its market presence.
