Aditya Infotech IPO GMP
The grey market premium (GMP) for the IPO was hovering around Rs 40–45 at the time of opening, indicating mild listing gains. However, the final response will hinge on institutional investor demand and broader market conditions.
Business Overview and Financials
Aditya Infotech is a leading value-added distributor (VAD) in India for electronic security equipment. The company partners with global brands like Dahua, Seagate, TP-Link, Panasonic, and others, distributing across 650+ cities with over 15,000 channel partners.
Its portfolio includes video surveillance products, access control systems, and networking solutions—catering to government, corporates, and SMEs.
Between FY22 and FY24, the company’s revenue grew at a CAGR of 24%, from Rs 2,090 crore to Rs 3,212 crore. PAT grew from Rs 102 crore in FY22 to Rs 210 crore in FY24.EBITDA margins improved slightly from 9.6% to 10.7% over the same period. However, analysts note that the business remains working capital intensive and exposed to global supply chain risks.
Valuation and Recommendation
At the upper price band of Rs 675, Aditya Infotech is valued at a P/E of 36.2x on FY24 earnings, which is at a premium to industry peers like Redington and Ingram Micro. The IPO aims to raise funds primarily for working capital needs (Rs 600 crore), with the rest for general corporate purposes.
Brokerage firm Bajaj Broking has rated the IPO as “Subscribe with Caution”. While acknowledging the company’s strong brand partnerships, consistent growth, and deep distribution network, the note flags its high valuation and moderate return ratios (RoE 22%, RoCE 20%) as concerns.
