Should You Invest?
On whether one should apply for the public issue or not, Choice Broking report says, “The IPO is coming with strong growth prospect and valuation comfort for investors. Considering the lower wine penetration in the domestic market and expanding demographic factors like rising per capita income and expanding target population, we believe the domestic wine market is on the cusp of exponential growth. Sula being the largest producer & seller of wine is well placed to capture the future growth opportunities in the Indian wine market. Thus we assign a “SUBSCRIBE” rating for the issue.”
A note from the brokerage firm Swastika said, “This Issue of Sula Vineyard is coming at a P/E valuation of 54.67 which is lower than its peers, however, the issue is a complete offer for sale and low promoter holding is also a concern thus we recommend subscribe rating to this IPO only for high-risk Investors”.
Sharekhan by BNP Paribas sees limited scope for listing gains for now and advises the investors to “look at the stock in case of weakness post its listing”.
