Angel One is neutral on the public issue. Angel One research report on eMudhra IPO says: “eMudhra is well established as a licensed CA with a strong network of channel partners, a diverse customer base and it will use a portion of the IPO proceeds to grow in overseas markets and to leverage its data. However, the size of the operation is relatively modest and the digital security and paperless transformation market is very competitive At the high end of the price band, the annualized post-issue FY22 P/E is 49.0x, which considers the positives in our view, so we recommend a neutral assessment of the matter.”
