Review and Recommendation of  Uma Exports by InvestorZone is 5/10 1. Uma Exports IPO has a reasonable revenue growth in the last 3 years. However, there was a temporary fall in the revenue in 2021 due to covid-19. 2. Uma Exports is mainly into trading and marketing of agricultural produce and commodities such as sugar, spices like dry red chillies, turmeric, coriander, cumin seeds, food grains like rice, wheat, corn, sorghum and tea, pulses and agricultural feed like soyabean meal and rice bran de-oiled cake. 3. As Uma Exports is a trading company that is why OPM and NPM are very less. 4. The IPO size is very small, so chances of allotment would be tough. 5. Uma Exports IPO is priced reasonable at P/E of 18x looks reasonable priced.
