TBO Tek IPO review
BP Equities has given a ‘subscribe’ rating to the TBO Tek IPO, citing several reasons. From a valuation perspective, while the initial P/E ratio of 65x may appear elevated, it aligns with industry standards for digital e-commerce platform businesses. However, the extrapolated FY24E EPS indicates a more reasonable P/E ratio of 45x. The company’s ability to maintain high growth and profitability, coupled with its fine-tuned business model, instils confidence in its long-term prospects. As TBO Tek continues to monetize its digital platform and capitalize on emerging opportunities, the company is poised to emerge as a formidable player in the digital commerce landscape. This comprehensive analysis forms the basis of the ‘subscribe’ rating for the issue.
Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP Research at Mehta Equities, has advised investors to apply for the TBO Tek IPO. He noted that at the upper band of ₹920/-, the issue is asking for a Market Cap of Rs.9990/- Cr. Based on annualized FY 2024 earnings and fully diluted post-IPO paid-up capital, the company is asking a PE of 48.6x which seems reasonable by looking at industry growth. With innovative platform, strategic approach to data utilization and commitment to fostering a collaborative ecosystem solidifying their position in the dynamic travel and tourism industry with significant growth potential. Hence, considering all the parameter, he recommends investors to “SUBSCRIBE” the issue for listing gain only. This recommendation is in line with the ‘subscribe’ rating given by other financial institutions.
Reinforcing the positive outlook, Arihant Capital, Canara Bank Securities, Indsaec Securities, Marwadi Shares and Finance, Nirmal Bang, Ventura Securities, and Sushil finace have all given a ‘subscribe’ tag to the book build issue. This unanimous recommendation from multiple financial firms should provide potential investors with a sense of confidence in the IPO’s potential.
