IPO Review

[Dilip Davda]
The company is innovation focused CRDMO, NCE, CRO, and CMC entity, and a global player for healthcare related products development serving over 25 world’s leading pharma companies. It marked steady growth in its top lines, but the sudden boost in bottom lines for FY24 raises eyebrows. Based on FY25 annualized earnings, the issue appears aggressively priced. Well-informed/cash surplus/risk seekers may park moderate funds for long term.
