We read out that it is the only company in the country to manufacture warships and submarines for the Indian Navy and also constructs cargo ships, multipurpose support vessels, dredgers and water tankers," Prashanth Tapse, AVP Research at Mehta Group told.

Most of bids so far seem to have received at higher end of price band of Rs 135-145 per share.

"On valuations parse at upper price band (Rs 145), the issue is asking for market capitalisation Rs 2,925 crore with PE (FY20) 6x compared to industry average of around 10x and P/BV below 1x versus industry average of around 1.52x, which seems to be fairly and reasonably prices with something left on the table for listing gains," Tapse said.

Considering attractive valuations and the objective of the issue which is to carry out the disinvestment of equity shares by the selling shareholder constituting 15.17 percent (offer for sale) paid up equity share capital, Tapse recommended investors to go a subscribe for listing gain.
