Goenka Diamond & Jewels Limited IPO

Goenka Diamond & Jewels Limited is entering the capital markets with an initial public offering (IPO) of 10,000,000 equity shares of face value of Rs.10 each with a price band of Rs. 135- 145 per share. The Company is looking to raise in excess Rs. 1.35 bn through this issue. The issue shall constitute 30.93% of the fully diluted post issue paid up capital of the Company.

The issue appears attractive with an annualized FY10 P/E of 6.9x compared to an average of 15.7x for its peers (Shrenuj, Asian Star, Renaissance, Rajesh Exports and Gitanjali).

It has enjoyed a superior ROE (FY09) of over 46% compared to a peers’ average of 10%-18%.

I think we should go ahead and subscribe to the issue.

Irrational Exeburance in Primary Markets (IPO)

 Primary market is back in boom after lying low for quite some time. Other than PSU FPO or IPO. Private sector IPOs are getting subscribed more than 50-100 times. QIBs and NIIs are subscribing almost more that 100 times.

Is there a strong appetite or it is a signal that a bubble formation has started and its time to exit. Only coming time will tell whats the truth.

REC FPO though just managed to subscribed has given substantial gain from Rs 203 FPO price and current price of Rs 255. Retail got full allotment on 1 lac because of low response and are sitting on a healthy profit of Rs 25000.

NMDC is also around Rs 350 and retail is going to get at Rs 285 with gaurantee of almost full allotment.

Other IPOs are getting subscribed 40-50 times and getting allotment is almost luck or you might be lucky to get 1 lot which doesn't make much profit.

I think now is the time to think which company offers good long term benefits and go for it even though the IPO/FPO might not be getting subscribed. If your conviction is correct then you can make huge amount of money.

Lets see how the coming IPOs fare. Here are few which must be watched

Profit Booking Time : Year End Coming

Stock Market rose quite a lot this year from last March to this March.
You would have made lot of money but if you were also invested in sectors which didn't perform or were laggards you would be sitting at some loss in those sectors like Telecom or recent IPOs like NHPC which are below initial offering.

To reduce tax liability this is the time to book losses in them to offset the profit made this year.

Others will start doing it or has already started and stock market also has peaked so this is the time to cut off the laggard stock from the portfolio and clean it up along with reducing the tax liability.
