Italian Edibles IPO Review (Avoid)

[Dilip Davda]  The company is in the business of confectioneries and other food items. It posted inconsistency in its top line and a surprising boost in bottom lines from FY23 onwards. Based on annualized super earnings for FY24, the issue appears fully priced. Recent performance appears to have been cooked up. The company is operating in a highly competitive and fragmented segment. There is no harm in skipping this issue. Read detail review…
