Reasons not to invest in an Anisha Implex IPO

  • Profits are very thin. It earned Rs 11 Lakhs in the last financial year (FY 2012-13) on a huge turnover of Rs 32.70 Crores. These can be easily wiped out with a small increase in costs.
  • SME IPO’s are trading in low volumes. Liquidity could be an issue.

Recommendation / Investment strategy:

  • Average EPS for the last 3 years is Rs 5.57. At issue price of Rs 10, this translates to a P/E ratio of 1.8. Based on last financial year 2012-13 EPS of Rs 5.03, P/E ratio works out to be 1.99. Its competitors like Nirav Commercial P/E ratio is 158.7 and an Amrapali Industries P/E ratio is 0.9. Compared to competitors, the issue price looks ok.
  • Due to stable revenues (not much growth in last 5 years) and thin margins, which are the major factors, my suggestion to investors is to stay away from such SME IPO.
