Arabian Petroleum IPO Review (May apply)

[Dilip Davda]  The company is operating in a highly competitive and fragmented market. It has posted steady growth in its top lines for the reported periods and over 10% PAT margins for the last two fiscals. Based on FY23 earnings, the issue appears fully priced. The company could have opted for a market lot of 1600 shares which could have helped them in a somewhat higher number of shareholders post IPO. A lot of 1600 could have been an investor-friendly gesture. Well-informed investors may park moderate funds for the medium to long term. Read detail review…
