Valuation vs Peers

Is the price fair?

From the RHP "Basis for Issue Price". Price (P/E) beside quality (ROE).

Atlanta Electricals46.3x——
Powerica24.5x——
Recent heavy-electrical/transformer listings trade in a wide ~14–46x P/E band (Anawil Wire ~14.5x, Powerica ~24.5x, Atlanta Electricals ~46.3x). Kanohar's ~38.6x is toward the top — justified only if its ~99% profit growth and ~70% ROCE hold. Add the RHP 'Basis for Issue Price' table before publishing.

The Balanced View

Strengths & Risks

The part most sites skip — both sides, from the RHP.

Strengths
  • Explosive growth — revenue +45%, EBITDA +93% and profit +99% in FY26 (PAT ₹18 → ₹130 Cr in two years).
  • Elite returns on capital — ROE ~42% and ROCE ~70%, with low debt (debt/equity ~0.10).
  • Strong sector tailwind — transformers for the grid, railways and renewables; RDSO-certified, ~19,200 MVA capacity, RDSO 100 MVA niche.
  • Strong grey market — GMP firmed to ~₹215 (~34%), signalling healthy listing interest.
  • Long track record (since 1972) with marquee bankers (Nuvama, IIFL).
Risks
  • Rich valuation — ~38.6x post-issue P/E and ~12.6x book; leaves little room for any disappointment.
  • Large offer-for-sale — ~72% of the ₹1,056 Cr issue (₹756 Cr) is the promoter trust selling; only ₹300 Cr is fresh capital.
  • Cyclical demand — transformer orders ride the power-capex cycle and government/utility spending.
  • Input-cost swings (copper, steel, CRGO) and customer concentration in utilities and railways.
  • The book closed hugely oversubscribed (~91x, QIB ~215x), which can mean a small allotment and a volatile listing; the rich price makes listing gains dependent on continued sentiment.

In simple terms, Kanohar Electricals is a long-established Meerut transformer maker riding India's power-grid boom — its profits have roughly doubled two years running, it earns exceptional returns on the money it uses, it carries very little debt, and the grey market has held firm at about ₹215 (~34%), pointing to a strong listing. Demand was very strong: the issue closed subscribed about 91 times overall, with the big institutions in about 215 times and wealthy investors about 88 times. The catches: the shares are priced richly (about 39 times earnings), and most of this issue (~72%) is a promoter trust selling rather than fresh money for the company. On balance the fast growth, elite returns, hot sector and blockbuster demand made it look worth applying for — now watch the Sep 16 listing, knowing the rich price leaves little margin for error. This is IPOSignal's research view, not investment advice.
