The Issuer has a strong brand value of being associated with Nirma Group. Nuvoco has diversified product offerings and is the largest cement manufacturer in East India and the fifth largest cement manufacturer in India in terms of capacity. If we look at the sector outlook, the cement sector would have strong demand as Government increases its infra spending. But it’s bound to happen only in the long term.
The financial performance of the Issuer is weak, it has losses after tax and the topline is volatile. Even after repayment of debt with IPO proceeds, debt to equity would be at higher levels. Hence considering all the above factors, one can avoid this IPO.
