What should investors do?
Zee Business Managing Editor said the logistics solutions provider's stock is likely to list near or below upper band of the issue price at Rs 487 per share. He suggested that only long-term investors should buy if the shares list at massive discount.
Earlier, speaking about the negatives of the company, he had said despite high revenues, it is a loss-making company, and no listed similar company is trading in the green, be it Zomato or Paytm for instance. Negative cash flow and expensive valuations are the other two major factors, the market guru had said.
Santosh Meena, Head of Research, Swastika Investmart Ltd, said the company’s tepid listing can be attributed to the current market conditions and the loss-making nature of the company.
The company has a good track record of execution built on its proprietary technology and has scaled up significantly since its incorporation in 2011 to emerge as the largest fully-integrated logistics player in the country, said Meena. He was of the view that the runway of opportunity appears good given India’s long-term growth prospects and the crucial role logistics plays when it comes to commerce.
"However, the logistics industry is extremely competitive and the company is yet to turn profitable.So, new investors must wait and watch the strategy of the company post listing and should only invest once the concrete plans to turn profitable are laid down. Those who applied for listing gains can maintain a stop loss of Rs. 460," the expert added.
