    Highly reputed promoters reasonable valuations and strong order book visibility makes this ipo a must apply. Group company KP Energy ltd has given very good returns in a very short period of time.

    Liquidity and leverage Position on the balance sheet as on FY18

    1. Current Ratio= 1.60( Reasonable)

    2. Debt/Networth= 0.64( Comfortable)

    Conclusion: The company has reasonable ratios.

    EPS and P/E Calculations(Pre-Issue) based on FY18 Financials

    1. PAT (FY18)= 11.40 Cr
    2. No. Of Shares = 1.2944 Cr
    3. EPS= 8.80
    4. P/E= 9.09

    EPS and P/E Calculations(Post-Issue) based on FY18 Financials

    1. PAT (FY18)= 11.40 Cr
    2. No. Of Shares = 1.8067 Cr
    3. EPS= 6.30
    4. P/E= 12.69

    Conclusion: The company has a reasonable valuation.

    New to IPOs, but why is YoY PAT down from 1140.00 lakhs to 387 lakhs between March and September 2018? PE appears good at 13. RoNW is choppy and dropped from a whopping 55% in Mar 16 to 15% in Mar 18.

      First of all, it is not YoY. The company has a PAT of 11.40 Cr in FY18 and a PAT of 3.87 Cr in first Six months of FY19.

      The RONW has gone down from 55% in FY16 to 20% IN FY18 due to heavy equity dilution. The Equity of 3.5 CR in FY16 has gone to 12.94 Cr in FY18.

    Please avoid this

    The company has pledged more than 17% shares even before the ipo with the banks. Pledge is not a problem but history suggest previous issue waa solar with same business is down.
    No point to apply in this company which has pledged shares and solar sector. Infact even WAA solar is looking much better with the correction. fundamentals says not to apply.
    better buy deccan healthcare from secondary market or other good sme sector like shreeoswal seeds,dhruv consultancy which are ruling at discount.

      Please read the prospectus carefully – I have read it now and note the following issues:

      (1) Pledge: The pledge is with SBI which has given approval for creating lock-in by removal of pledge and then re-pledged: The company is servicing debt regularly as there is no default or delay mentioned for the debt

      (2) WAA Solar: On studying the prospectus, one can realise it is not comparable to WAA Solar – While WAA is having only few IPP assets and one PPA with a DISCOM, KPI has 15 MW up & running with reputed parties & at a rate of ~ Rs. 6.58 per unit – Also, WAA does not do CPP but KPI is doing CPP very well – If one will examine carefully, only thing common is solar sector!!
