OUTLOOK & VALUATION

Zaggle Prepaid Ocean Services Limited is a uniquely positioned player in the fintech industry, offering a diversified suite of products and services. The company has a SaaS-based fintech platform and in- house-developed technology. Additionally, the company has diverse sources of revenue and a low-cost operation model.

However, there are some concerns about the company's financial performance. The company has a major dependency on third parties, and it has faced negative cash flow and a decline in its profitability in recent years. Additionally, the company operates in a highly competitive industry.

The IPO is coming at a P/E valuation of 66.6x, which is significantly higher than the valuations of its listed peers. The company's debt-to- equity ratio is also high.

Overall, we believe that the risks outweigh the potential rewards for this IPO. We would avoid investing in this IPO.

पिछले सप्ताह फेडरल रिजर्व की एक रिपोर्ट से स्पष्ट हुआ है कि जुलाई और अगस्त में श्रम बाजार में सुस्ती और धीमी मुद्रास्फीति के दबाव के बीच अमेरिकी आर्थिक विकास मामूली रहा है, जिससे उम्मीदों को बल मिला कि केंद्रीय बैंक ने ब्याज दरों में बढ़ोतरी या तो कर दी है, या इसके अंत के करीब है। फेड की बीइंग बुक के मुताबिक जुलाई-अगस्त में आर्थिक विकास माध्यम रहा है। टूरिस्म खर्चो में बढ़ोतरी हुई है, जबकि रिटेल स्पेंडिंग में लगातार गिरावट देखने को मिल रही है। मूल्य वृद्धि धीमी हुई है, लेकिन फेड सर्वे के अधिकतर जिलों ने संकेत दिया कि इनपुट कॉस्ट वृद्धि बिक्री मूल्य से कम धीमी है, क्योकि कम होती मांग के कारण व्यापार बढ़ी हुई लागत को बिक्री मूल्य में शामिल करने में असमर्थ है। लेकिन, कच्चे तेल की कीमतों में बढ़ोतरी से मुद्रास्फीति फिर से बढ़ने की सम्भावना है जिससे यह अनुमान है की फेड सितम्बर में होने वाली बैठक में अपना रुख हॉकिश रखेगा। हालांकि, अमेरिका के आर्थिक आंकड़े यह दर्शाते है की अर्थव्यवस्था की स्तिथि अभी बेहतर बनी हुई है और उम्मीद है की आर्थिक मंदी इस साल के लिए टल जाएगी जिससे सुरक्षित आश्रय की मांग कम हुई है। उधर, चीन की अर्थव्यवस्था में सुस्ती, इसके आर्थिक आकड़ो में देखि जा सकती है जिससे अमेरिकी डॉलर के विरुद्ध चीन की मुद्रा में गिरावट देखि जा रही जिससे एशिया की अन्य अर्थव्यवस्थाओं की मुद्रा भी गिरावट की चपेट में आ गई है। यूरोपियन यूनियन की मुद्रा यूरो में डॉलर की तुलना में गिरावट बनी हुई है जिससे छः प्रमुख मुद्राओ का मापक अमेरिकी डॉलर इंडेक्स, में तेज़ी देखने को मिल रही है और कीमती धातुओं के भाव में दबाव बना हुआ है। इस सप्ताह अमेरिका मुद्रास्फीति, रिटेल सेल्स, कंस्यूमर सेंटीमेंट और यूरोपियन सेंट्रल बैंक की मॉनेटरी पॉलिसी, कीमती धातुओं के भाव के लिए महत्वपूर्ण रहेंगी।

तकनिकी विश्लेषण :

इस सप्ताह कीमती धातुओं के भाव सीमित दायरे में रहने की सम्भावना है। एमसीएक्स अक्टूबर वायदा सोने में सपोर्ट 58000 रुपये पर है और रेजिस्टेंस 60000 रुपये पर है। दिसंबर वायदा चांदी में सपोर्ट 68000 रुपये पर है और रेजिस्टेंस 75000 रुपये पर है।

FINANCIALS (RESTATED CONSOLIDATED)

OUTLOOK & VALUATION

RR Kabel is a well-established player with strong brand recall and quality products. The company has a diverse product portfolio and an extensive domestic and global distribution network, and it is working on strategies for further enhancement as well. Other than the wire and cable industries, they are also well-positioned for growth in the FMEG segment.

Financial performance has been mixed, where there is growth in revenue and net worth but pressure on its margins with declining profits. The issue size is around 1964 crore, but most of its portion belongs to the offer for sale. Finally, the IPO is coming at a P/E valuation of around 60.5x, which is looking high-priced.

Due to the high valuation and current market sentiments, we will avoid this IPO for listing benefits. However, it could be a good pick for the long term, and investors may consider it during any post-listing correction.

COMPARISON WITH LISTED INDUSTRY PEERS (AS ON 31ST MARCH 2023)

FINANCIALS (RESTATED CONSOLIDATED)

OUTLOOK & VALUATION

Ratnaveer Precision Engineering Limited is a manufacturer of stainless steel products with a wide range of products and multiple designs. The company has a backward-integrated business model, which gives it control over the supply chain, and a research and development (R&D) setup for new product development. It has also reported strong financial performance in the last three years.

However, the steel industry is subject to market volatility and economic conditions. Additionally, it is a highly competitive industry. The major concern for investors here is the high debt-to-equity ratio and low-margin business. However, the IPO is coming at a fair price-to-earnings (P/E) valuation of 13.49x.

Thus, after considering all the factors, we suggest applying for this IPO for listing gain.

सोने की कीमतें तीन सप्ताह के उच्चतम स्तर के करीब पहुंच गई है, क्योंकि अमेरिका से कमजोर आर्थिक आकड़ो से अटकलें लगाईं जा रही है कि फेडरल रिजर्व के पास ब्याज दरें बढ़ाने के लिए बहुत कम गुंजाइश है। पिछले सप्ताह सोने में मजबूत बढ़त देखी गई क्योंकि कमजोर अमेरिकी जीडीपी और रोजगार आंकड़ो ने डॉलर और ट्रेजरी यील्ड को कम कर दिया। चीनी आर्थिक मंदी की बढ़ती आशंकाओं के बीच सोने की सुरक्षित निवेश मांग में भी वृद्धि देखी गई, क्योंकि एशिया की सबसे बड़ी अर्थव्यवस्था चीन के आंकड़े मंदी की और संकेत कर रहे है। चीन के आंकड़ों से पता चला है कि मैन्युफैक्चरिंग सेक्टर अगस्त में लगातार पांचवें महीने सिकुड़ गया है, जबकि नॉन-मैन्युफैक्चरिंग विकास भी धीमा हो गया है। आर्थिक आकड़ो ने चीन में निरंतर आर्थिक कमजोरी की ओर इशारा किया है, जबकि चीन ने अर्थव्यवस्था को समर्थन देने के लिए और अधिक प्रोत्साहन उपाय करना जारी रखा है। फोकस अब चीन के अधिक प्रोत्साहन उपायों पर है, खबरों से स्पष्ट होता है कि पीपुल्स बैंक ऑफ चाइना तरलता को बढ़ावा देने के लिए मॉर्गेज और युआन जमा दरों को और कम करने की योजना बना रहा है, और फॉरेक्स रिज़र्व रेक्विरेमेंट रेश्यो को पिछले सप्ताह कम कर दिया है। अमेरिकी डॉलर, जो सोने के विपरीत दिशा में चलता है, पिछले सप्ताह 1 प्रतिशत तक लुढ़क गया और बेंचमार्क अमेरिकी बांड यील्ड उच्च स्तरों से पीछे हट गई है जिससे सोने और चांदी की चमक बढ़ती दिखाई दी है। पिछले सप्ताह एमसीएक्स में ऑक्टूबर वायदा सोना और दिसंबर वायदा चांदी में 1.5 प्रतिशत बढ़ोतरी दर्ज की गई है। अमेरिका ब्याज दरें अधिक होने के बावजूद कोर पीसीई प्राइस इंडेक्स के आंकड़े स्थिर रहे जबकि पर्सनल स्पेंडिंग में बढ़ोतरी दर्ज की गई है। लेकिन ऊंची दरों के बीच अगर वैश्विक आर्थिक हालात बिगड़ते हैं तो इस साल भी सोने में कुछ मजबूती देखने को मिल सकती है। हाल के अमेरिकी जीडीपी आंकड़ों से पता चला है कि साल की पहली छमाही में आर्थिक मंदी का असर नहीं होने के बावजूद, दुनिया की सबसे बड़ी अर्थव्यवस्था अभी ठंडी पड़ी हुई है। त्यौहार सीजन के पहले कीमती धातुओं में घरेलु मांग बढ़ने के आसार है, और भारत में अलनीनो प्रभाव के चलते 122 साल में अब तक सबसे कम बारिश हुई है जिससे फ़ूड इन्फ्लेशन बढ़ने की सम्भावना भी है, जो कीमती धातुओं के भाव को सपोर्ट कर सकता है।

तकनिकी विश्लेषण

इस सप्ताह कीमती धातुओं के भाव में तेज़ी बनी रहने की सम्भावना है। एमसीएक्स अक्टूबर वायदा सोने में सपोर्ट 58800 रुपये पर है और रेजिस्टेंस 60500 रुपये पर है। दिसंबर वायदा चांदी में सपोर्ट 74000 रुपये पर है और रेजिस्टेंस 78000 रुपये पर है।
