Company Background:
Hamps Bio specializes in ethical marketing and distribution across a diverse range of pharmaceutical formulations and FMCG products, such as freeze-dried and frozen fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers. Their brand is well-recognized in both the pharmaceutical and FMCG segments. The company’s financials have shown a consistent upward trajectory, with a revenue of ₹436.42 Lakh for the period ending October 31, 2024. Over the past few years, Hamps Bio’s profitability has steadily increased, with profit after tax (PAT) touching ₹34.08 Lakh for FY24.

However, potential investors must weigh the risks associated with smaller IPOs, especially those listed on the BSE SME platform.
Objective of the IPO:
The proceeds from the IPO will be utilized for purchasing plant and machinery for the FMCG division (₹359.00 Lakh), enhancing brand visibility (₹50.00 Lakh), and general corporate purposes (₹151.87 Lakh). These funds will support the company’s growth strategies, enabling it to scale operations and enhance its presence in the market.
Investment Consideration:
While the Hamps Bio IPO offers an exciting opportunity, investors should evaluate the financial performance, IPO pricing, and market conditions before applying. The strong demand indicated by the subscription figures and GMP trends make it an attractive option for those seeking listing gains. However, since this is a fixed-price issue, the potential for price movement post-listing is a critical factor to consider.
