The review found 4 points to read closely and 17 worth checking.
Read closely
- Trading with related parties
- Finance and compliance heads are new or have turned over
- Operating losses and operating cash outflow
- Supplier concentration
How the capital was built
- The last priced issue of shares was on 26 Jun 2026: 16,22,063 shares to non-promoter investors at ₹369 each (2 allottees, none stated as linked to the promoters), 0.5% of the pre-issue capital, at 1.6 times the price of the previous issue 2 months earlier; it came 3 months before this prospectus.
- From the first priced issue (20 Sept 2018, ₹9.93 in today's shares) to the last, the price per share rose 37 times over 8 years.
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.
