“On the upper price band, the issue is valued at a P/E of 163.2x based on FY23 earnings. Though the valuations are rich, we believe that the nature of the platform business (high pass-through of revenues) and large industry opportunity size would be the key factors to drive sustained and high earnings growth in future. We, therefore, recommend a “Subscribe" rating for the issue," BP Equities said.
