The company has shown steady sales growth as well as well as growth in net profits in the last 3 years. However, margins are subdued at around 3%, which is the nature of the recycling business. ROE has averaged around 40% in the last 3 years. 

Valuation Metrics

At the current issue price of ₹232 per share, the valuation of the company is at a P/E ratio of 32.4X in terms of latest year EPS of ₹7.16. The good news is that the company has robust ROE and sales growth. Also, the recycling business is gradually becoming a national priority, and hence, greater government support and encouragement can be expected. 

The company has advantages like a fully integrated model, strategic locations as well as a pan-global presence. The company has also been managing its commodity price risk quite effectively via hedging mechanisms. Demand for recycling is likely to increase sharply in the coming years, and the company could be well poised to capitalize. However, this is a long-haul game, and investors must only take a long-term view on the IPO.
