IPO Evaluation

Generated 23 Sep 2026

Revenue Trend

Total income was ₹96.91 Cr for the period ending 31 Mar 2023, declining to ₹71.47 Cr by 30 Sep 2023, though this is a 9-month figure, not a full year, so isn't directly comparable.

Profit Trend

Profit after tax was ₹3.04 Cr for the period ending 31 Mar 2023, slightly increasing to ₹3.05 Cr by 30 Sep 2023, though this is a 9-month figure, not a full year, so isn't directly comparable.

Valuation

Esconet Technologies Limited has an implied P/E of 24.87 at the issue price, compared to peers trading at a P/E range of 26.11. This indicates that Esconet is priced at roughly 0.95 times the trailing earnings of its peers.

Grey Market Premium, Explained

The grey market premium (GMP) refers to the unofficial trading of IPO shares before they are listed on the stock exchange. A positive GMP indicates that the shares are expected to list at a higher price than the issue price, while a negative GMP suggests the opposite. Investors often look at GMP as a gauge of market sentiment regarding the IPO.

Who This IPO Suits

Investors comfortable with short-term volatility and a long-term horizon typically weigh IPOs like this against their investment goals and risk tolerance. It is important to consider the company's financial health, market position, and growth potential before making a decision.

Who May Want to Wait

Investors who prefer stable returns and are risk-averse may find IPOs like this less appealing, especially if they are concerned about market fluctuations and the uncertainties associated with new listings.

IPO Timeline, Explained

The IPO opens for subscription on 16 February 2024 and closes on 20 February 2024. Allotment of shares will be done by 21 February 2024, and the shares are expected to be listed on the stock exchange on 23 February 2024.

Listing Gains — The Risk

Listing gains refer to the profit made when shares are sold on the listing day at a higher price than the issue price. However, there are risks involved, as market conditions can change rapidly, and the stock may not perform as expected after listing. Investors should be cautious and consider the long-term potential of the company rather than focusing solely on short-term gains.
