What Should Investors Do Now?
Anubhuti Mishra, Equity Research Analyst at Swastika Investmart Ltd., said: “RR Kabel Limited, a well-established wire and cable manufacturer with a strong brand and quality products, made its stock market debut today. It listed at ₹1180 per share, 14 per cent higher than its IPO price of Rs 1035, becoming the first IPO to list under the T+3 cycle. Despite the high valuation and the fact that most of the issue was an offer for sale, the IPO was well-received by investors, with a subscription of 18.69 times. The stock witnessed a decent listing today. Now our suggestion to investors is to exit the position after booking listing gain, however, those who want to hold it should maintain a stop loss at 1065.”
Praveen Sahay – Research Analyst, Prabhudas Lilladher Pvt Ltd., said: “We initiate coverage on RR Kabel with a ‘BUY’ rating and TP of Rs1407 valuing at 35x FY25 earnings. We believe RR Kabel is a play on several opportunities in the W&C segment given 1) a strong brand with a diverse product portfolio 2) well-structured capacity expansion plans, 3) an increasing dealers /distribution network, and 4) a distribution-led export business. Although the company has grown its FMEG portfolio inorganically, yet it expects to minimize losses in coming years by transitioning towards premium markets. In FMEG, too, the company has enhanced its brand presence, positioning, and manufacturing capabilities to minimize losses. We estimate Revenue/EBITDA/PAT CAGR of 20.7%/38.8%/44.3% over FY23-26 led by 1) improving business mix 2) operating leverage & cost optimization 3) investments in brand building and 4) increasing distribution reach. Initiate ‘BUY’.”
