IPO Review

[Dilip Davda]
The company is in the business of menswear’s that is highly competitive and fragmented segment. The company claims to have taken a niche place in selling its own brands in online/offline platforms and gaining grounds. Reduced interest cost will help it to boost bottom lines for coming years. Based on FY24 super annualized earnings, the issue appears aggressively priced. However, well-informed investors may park moderate funds for long term.
