I have a slightly positive view on the company and intend to apply in Kataria Industries IPO subject to availability of funds. Promoter family has two listed companies DP Abhushan & DP wires.
Interactive Financial Services Ltd the IPOs led manager has an average track record. They managed IPs like Winny Immigration and Education Services Ltd, DCG Cables & Wires Limited, Teerth Gopicon Limited, Kalahridhaan Trendz Limited etc. in the past.
GMP as reported on social media has been Rs. 60.
SME IPOs are quite volatile and new retail investors need to exercise considerable caution in my view.
