CRISIL has come out with a research report on Nu Tek India's IPO. It has assigned a CRISIL IPO Grade 3/5 to the company's IPO. The issue consists of fresh issue of 3.5 million shares and the offer for sale of 1 million shares aims to raise Rs 1,125 million - Rs 1,350 million.
CRISIL's report on Nu Tek India's IPO:
CRISIL has assigned a CRISIL IPO Grade "3/5" to the proposed initial public offer of Nu Tek India Ltd. (NTIL). This grade indicates that the fundamentals of the issue are average relative to other listed equity securities in India. However, this grade is not an opinion on whether the issue price is appropriate in relation to the issue fundamentals. The grade is not a recommendation to buy / sell or hold the graded instrument, or a comment on the graded instrument's future market price or its suitability for a particular investor.
The grading reflects NTIL's strength in offering a complete range of services related to the roll out of wireless telecom infrastructure. NTIL has proven execution capability in the deployment of wireless telecom infrastructure in difficult terrains such as Jammu & Kashmir (J&K). The company also has the advantage of having worked on projects with relatively new technologies such as WiMax and the successful implementation of the underground network for Delhi Metro Rail. NTIL's clients include all major telecom operators, telecom equipment vendors and telecom infrastructure leasing companies. On the back of NTIL's healthy order book position and strong network roll out plans of telecom operators, we expect the company's revenue growth momentum to continue over the next couple of years. However, margins may contract slightly due to change in the revenue mix in favour of full turnkey projects.
NTIL's business direction and vision is governed by its founder promoter - Mr. Inder Sharma. The second line management of the company is relatively strong and headed by people with vast domain expertise.
Our grading is tempered by the company's unfavourable working capital position that has deteriorated over the past two years. The grading also takes into consideration the limited management bandwidth available to the company in view of the expected strong growth in existing business. The grading also reflects the inadequate corporate governance structure that could lead to a potential area of conflict.
The issue consists of fresh issue of 3.5 million shares and the offer for sale of 1 million shares aims to raise Rs 1,125 million - Rs 1,350 million.
