Zee Business Managing Editor Anil Singhvi has recommended to apply for long-term. 

He said strong brand leader, asset light model makes it a good long-term candidate. "Besides, it also boasts of strong financial, margin and cash flow," he said.  

Speaking of negatives, the Market Guru said at the upper price band of Rs 866, Vedant Fashions IPO appears little expensive. "Currently, promoters holding in the company stands at 85%, which has to be reduced by at least 10%," he said.
