Experts are of the opinion that it is a courageous job to invest money in small companies. Earlier people were interested in investing in small companies. Now the bigger IPO comes, the bigger the response is. Funds and FIIs have become big players of IPOs. It is courageous to bring an IPO of 60 crores in such a market. Especially the IPO bringing infra sector which is not currently in trend. No one is interested in infra. Despite this, the company has dared to bring an IPO. Lead managers also do not have as strong a lead role.

 

According to Anil Singhvi, managing editor of Zee Business, the company is good on paper. However, it is only when the company is listed or talking to the management that the company gets an idea. But, the balance sheet is visible at the moment. Much better than that. The order book is very strong. Cash flow is improving. Valuations are not very expensive. These are some good things. But, the problem is that when everything is good, then why only bring IPO of working capital. It should not be needed. Is a very small company. There is a market cap of only 237 crores. It is very difficult for a company with such a small market cap to guess what will happen to the IPO.

According to Anil Singhvi, the promoters are good, the gas and oil pipeline works. Business is good. But, it is very difficult to give your opinion on such a small company what will happen after listing. The purchase of funds will not come. So whatever has to happen has to be in the middle of retail investors. Those who will invest money in IPO keep in mind that anything can happen. If you want to invest money just by looking at the balance sheet, then you can take a chance. Only those who take more risk should invest. If you want to invest money after seeing the size of the company, then you can leave. There is a neutral view, only those who can take the risk, look at the balance sheet and invest that money. This will be your call completely.
