In our IPO Analysis, we had said, “Current IPO boom and promoter’s long standing in the market may lead to some listing gain. However, market cycles significantly fluctuate financial performance of asset and wealth management companies, which have already witnessed stagnation in valuation multiples due to high competition. Besides, company’s size is small, does not make it a portfolio pick. On undemanding valuation, one may apply, strictly for listing gains.”
