In simple words, the P/E ratio of this IPO (11.88x), compared with the industry’s average P/E of 51.55x, has an undervaluation (on a P/E ratio basis only). Hence the price of the Share seems fully priced for the investors when considered based on the average P/E ratio of the industry.

IPO’s Weaknesses
-
The unfavourable market change presents the main risk for the company economically due to the changes in interest rates and possible recession.
-
It is necessary to have enough cash for the operations of the business. A lack of liquidity may lead to a disruption in the business or more expensive borrowing.
-
A company is affected by the possibility of customers not paying their dues, which may result in a negative impact on revenue and paying credit.
-
The statutory and regulatory consents need to be complied with for the operation of the business. The company’s ability to function effectively can be hampered by a failure to timely obtain or renew required licenses.
