Conclusion

Of the 4 points to read closely, 2 concern the promoters, management and their dealings (trading with related parties; finance and compliance heads are new or have turned over), 1 concerns the financial statements and 1 concerns the business, the valuation or the quality of disclosure. These could not be scored automatically and need reading: guarantees given for group entities; payments to insiders are high relative to profit; promoters have limited experience in this business. These wait for the price and the final share count: shares issued shortly before the IPO at a deep discount to the issue price; low promoter holding after the issue; issue price is a large multiple of promoters' cost. The pages to read are 84, 86, 216, 246, 299 and 321.
