Sanathan Textiles IPO Review
Sanathan Textiles is a prominent global supplier of Cotton Yarns, Polyester Yarns, and Yarns for Technical Textiles. The company operates across three yarn business verticals, offering diverse yarns for various applications in different sectors.
The company’s promoters—Paresh Vrajlal Dattani, Ajay Vallabhdas Dattani, Anilkumar Vrajdas Dattani, and Dinesh Vrajdas Dattani—bring a combined experience of 44-27 years in the textile industry.
Financial Overview
For the Fiscal year 2024, Sanathan Textiles reported revenues of ₹29,798.0 Million and Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹1,338.48 Million. The pre-issue P/E ratio stands at 17.26x, and the post-issue P/E ratio is 20.24x, compared to the industry P/E ratio of 30x. These metrics indicate that the IPO is priced fairly.
With a GMP of ₹28 (8.72%), the company’s financials suggest that while the IPO is reasonably priced, it may not deliver significant listing gains. Therefore, we recommend investors to avoid the Sanathan Textiles IPO for listing gains.
Investment Opportunity
For those interested in the textile sector, the Sanathan Textiles IPO offers exposure to a well-established global supplier of various yarns. However, considering the moderate GMP and financial outlook, we recommend caution before investing for listing gains.
