The majority of brokerages have given the IKIO Lighting IPO a ‘Subscribe’ rating for the long term because to its solid business model and reasonable prices.
According to Mehta Equities the IPO offer gives investors an opportunity to invest in one of the growing original design manufacturers (ODM), electronics manufacturing service providers (EMS) businesses, which is well-positioned to capitalise on opportunities provided by the tailwinds in the LED lighting market driven in part by governmental policies for energy saving and environment protection.
“On valuation parse at upper price band of ₹285-, the issue is asking for a market ap of ₹2203 crore. On annualised earnings and fully diluted post-IPO paid-up capital, IKIO is asking price a P/E of 32 times on the basis of proforma consolidated basis and 47 times based on consolidated restated numbers which seems the valuations are reasonably priced when compared to Industry average PE which is around about 55 times. Hence considering companies and industrial growth rationales, we recommend investors ‘Subscribe’ to IKIO Lighting IPO offer with a long term perspective. With market sentiments recovering if we get any listing gains over and above 25%, we recommend allotted investors to book profits,” said the brokerage.
