The company is poised for significant growth, according to DRChoksey FinServ Private Limited, which holds a neutral outlook on the IPO. DRChoksey highlights Sanathan’s strategic capacity expansion, particularly a new Punjab facility doubling polyester yarn production by FY25, as key growth drivers. The firm also points to a shift towards value-added products and increasing international sales as factors boosting profitability.
While DRChoksey considers Sanathan’s valuation fair, with a P/E ratio of 20 and EV/EBITDA of 13, investors are advised to consult with financial advisors before making investment decisions.
