Netweb Technologies IPO – Should You Subscribe?
View of Choice Broking:-
Choice Broking expects the company’s top-line over FY23-25 is likely to grow by 37% CAGR to ₹835.4 crore in FY25. Economies of scale operation would expand the EBITDA and PAT margin by 132 bps and 162 bps, respectively, to 17.1% and 12.2% in FY25E.
“There are no comparable peers in the listed space having a business model and product offerings similar to Netweb Technologies. At the higher price band, it is demanding a P/E multiple of 59.7x (to its FY23 earning), which seems to be on the higher side. However, considering the business potential and earning growth in the medium term, we believe the demanded valuation is reasonable,” said Choice Broking.
Thus, it assigned a “Subscribe” rating for the issue.
Most analysts have given a ‘Subscribe’ rating to Netweb Technologies IPO, considering its business capabilities, revenue growth, and reasonable valuation.
