Choice Broking: Subscribe with Caution

“At higher price band, CWL is demanding a TTM P/E multiple of 48.8x (to its TTM earning per share of Rs. 13.3), which is at significant premium to the peer average of 38.6x. Thus the issue is overvalued. On the back of diversified product portfolio, wide distribution reach and established brands, the company has maintained a dominant position in the domestic Consumerware market. Its expansion in the glassware products, would further strengthen its position in the market. There are growth tailwinds for the sector and CWL is well placed to benefit from the same. But due to highly priced issue, we are assigning a ‘Subscribe with Caution’ rating for the issue.”

Swastika: Subscribe with a long-term view

“Cello is a well-known brand in Indian households, and it has a strong market position. The company offers a diversified product portfolio with 15841 SKUs. It has a pan-India presence with a strong distribution network. The financial performance of the company has also been consistent, and it has further plans for expansion as well. However, there are some concerns as well, like that it does not own trademarks for its key brands. Secondly, it faces significant competition from other players in the industry. Additionally, the issue is a complete offer for sale. In terms of valuation, the IPO is priced at a P/E of 47.47x, which seems fully priced. Thus, we will suggest a ‘Subscribe’ rating to high-risk investors with a long-term view.”
