Valuation and Outlook

If we attribute FY23 earnings to post-IPO fully diluted paid-up capital, then the asking price is at a P/E of around 33.69x. The issue is priced at a P/BV of 4.01 based on its NAV of Rs. 109.98 as of March 31, 2023, and at a P/BV of 3.52 based on its post-IPO NAV of Rs. 125.40 per share (at the upper cap). Thus, the issue appears fully priced.

The company has not declared any equity dividends for the reported periods. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy based on its financial performance and future prospects.

The company is a world pioneer in energy efficiency solutions and precision engineering goods. Its top line includes over 66 per cent of export revenues, indicating that it had already carved out a position in the global market for its products.

The company has reported inconsistency in its PAT margins with 8.93 per cent in FY21, 10.35 per cent in FY22, and 8.57 per cent in FY23 along with ROE of 12.01 per cent, 14.58 per cent, and 12.39 per cent, respectively. Hence, we recommend investors cautiously subscribe to the issue as there might be limited listing gains.
