SignatureGlobal India Limited IPO: Is it Worth Applying?
SignatureGlobal India Ltd is a decade-old largest real estate company with a market share of 19% in the NCR-Delhi region.
Real estate companies have a lot of land banks and inventories as part of their normal operation. Which makes them financially burdened (debt-laden).
SignatureGlobal’s business is capital intensive and requires significant expenditure for development and is therefore heavily dependent on the availability of finance.
Yet few of the real estate companies have performed well while others have perished. Depending on how they handle debt and the number of houses sold.
The company had negative PAT (losses in the last 3 years), a negative net worth for FY 22 & FY 21. And a large debt of Rs. 1709 as of FY 2023. This goes to show a weak financial performance over the last 3 years. You need to exercise caution while applying for SignatureGlobal India IPO.
Key risks to check are –
- Negative PAT (losses) in the last 3 years
- Dependent on the performance of the real estate market in the Delhi-NCR region
- 0.53% of unsold residential units and 16.85% of commercial units were unsold
- Price increase and disruption in the supply of, construction materials, labor and equipment
- Rs. 19.92 cr of outstanding legal litigations pending against the company
You can check the allotment status 3-4 days after SignatureGlobal’s IPO is complete.
