As Abhinav Tiwari, Research Analyst at Bonanza stated in a Mint report, the firm's good financial ratios, Return on Equity (ROE) of 37% and Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) of 43%, make it a good bet. "The IPO looks well-priced at a trailing PE of about 35x, which is reasonable relative to peers. The proceeds will be utilized for capacity expansion and to fund future growth," he added.
