Data Source: Company RHP filed with SEBI (FY refers to Apr-Mar period)

The good news is that the sales revenues have been growing steadily year after year. However, the nature of the digital business is a long-gestation business and hence the profits have been hard to come by. That is evident in the ratios.

Valuation Metrics

At the current issue price of ₹103 per share, the valuation of the company is at a P/E ratio of 62.4X in terms of latest year EPS. However, even this is relatively complex as the latest year profits are substantially due to a write back of deferred tax credits, which has boosted profits. It remains to be seen if the company is profitable without these tax credits.

However, there are some favourable intangibles for Urban Company Ltd. Its multi-service and hyperlocal approaches have been quite popular in most key cities and towns in India, and it has almost become a household name. Its technology platform is robust and that allows the company to scale up its business rapidly and at minimal costs. As a business model it is unique and that is something investors can look at. It is a quasi-play on the digital conversion opportunity in India.
