IPO Review

[Dilip Davda]
The company posted average historical trends in its financial performance till FY22 and marked a sudden boost in its bottom line for 9M FY23 – a pre-IPO year. This not only raises eyebrows but concerns over sustainability in the future. Considering historic trends, the issue is aggressively priced while it appears lucratively priced on boosted earnings. Hence well-informed investors may consider parking funds for the medium term.
