"There is significant scope for new mining capacities and considerable opportunities for future discoveries of sub-surface deposits of metals in India. India’s mineral production of most of the important minerals is also showing positive growth during 2021.

Aayush Agrawal, senior analyst, Swastika Investmart Ltd
Aayush Agrawal, senior analyst, Swastika Investmart Ltd, said the company has posted stable growth in revenue in the last three years. " The revenue has grown from Rs 643 crore to Rs 856.68 crore over the period of FY19 to FY21. During the same period, profit grew from Rs 32.67 crore to Rs 136.4 crore," said the analyst.  
The Kolkata-based Tega Industries IPO is purely an offer of sale of 1,36,69,478 equity shares, hence no amount will be used for the company's growth, highlighted the analyst. "The company has a sufficient cash balance where the PE fund is exiting. The IPO is arriving at a PE of 22x to its EPS of Rs 20.48 for FY21. The valuation of the company seems to be attractively priced for the investors. Thus, we assign a "SUBSCRIBE" rating for listing gain and long term," he added.

ICICI Direct Research

ICICI Direct Research also assigned subscribe rating for this IPO. " Tega’s strong market position, innovative products, and higher entry barriers likely to help maintain its margins while consistent growth with high repeat business (~74%) would augur well in the long run," it noted in its report.
