Keystone Realtors IPO Review – Should you Subscribe?

After going through all these points, you might be wondering whether Keystone Realtors IPO is good for investment or not?

Keystone Realtors Services are one of the prominent real estate developers in India with primary focus on the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.

Company has stable revenues, however these are declined in recent Qtr. Its margins are on declining mode. If we consider Q1 FY23 revenues and check P/E, the issue price is overpriced.

I would personally like avoid such IPOs as of now.
