P N Gadgil Jewellers IPO Review
Anand Rathi Research
The sixth generation of the jeweller family is in charge of Pune-based P N Gadgil Jewellers Ltd, which is the second-biggest jewellery merchant in Maharashtra, according to the brokerage. The business offers loyalty programs and customer-focused rewards like any other traditional player. Due to the growing proportion of organized players, the retail gold jewelry market in India, which is the world’s second-largest consumer, is predicted to expand at a 16% CAGR between FY 23 and FY 28. Additionally, the firm intends to use the funds to finance the opening of 12 new stores in Maharashtra by the fiscal year 2026, as part of its aspirations to further expand its network of stores.
According to valuation analysis, the company’s indicated market cap at the highest price range is around ₹65,130 million, or 42.2 times the PE for FY24. The brokerage believes that this matter might be taken into consideration for the company’s long-term growth, given its consistent and increasing earnings and return ratios. As a result, the brokerage rates this IPO as “SUBSCRIBE” for LONG TERM.
