Brokerage firm Anand Rathi has ‘subscribe’ rating for MTAR Technologies IPO. In a research report Anand Rathi said, “At the upper end of the IPO price band, it is offered at 45.32 times its trailing twelve months earnings, with a market cap of Rs 1,769 crore. The company operates in an industry with high entry barrier especially given the steep learning curve, investment in advanced manufacturing facilities, precision requirements and past track record.”
Considering the company’s expertise in providing wide range of precision engineering products with complex manufacturing capability, high entry barrier, strong balance sheet and management; we give this IPO a “Subscribe” rating.
