Should You bid?
Canara Bank Securities has expressed a cautiously optimistic stance on the Glottis IPO. In their research note, they highlight that “Glottis is strategically positioned in the logistics sector, benefiting from the growing demand for multimodal and containerized freight. Its expanding footprint in integrated logistics and value-added services enhances its investment appeal.”
However, the firm also flags concerns around the company’s heavy reliance on the renewable energy segment and rising receivables, which could pose potential risks.
As a result, they recommend the IPO for long-term investors who have a higher risk tolerance.
