Qualitek Labs IPO Review (Avoid)

[Dilip Davda]  The company is operating in lab testing segment that is highly competitive and fragmented. Though it posted growth in its top and bottom lines for the reported periods, the sustainability of such margins going forward is a major concern. Based on its FY24 super earnings, the issue appears aggressively priced. There is no harm in skipping this pricey bet. Read detail review…
