Transrail’s around 12% EBITDA margin of FY24 is higher than peers.
PE (FY25 annualized) 28x ; PE FY24 24.9x.
The company has a track record of 4 decades in providing comprehensive solutions in the power transmission and distribution sector, on a turnkey basis both in India and globally.
The company has a footprint in 58 countries such as Bangladesh, Kenya, Tanzania, Niger, Nigeria, Mali, Cameroon, Finland, Poland, Nicaragua, etc.
They have developed extensive pre-qualifications in power transmission and distribution business owing to our extensive experience in the sector which is reflected in their strong order book.
The company’s order book of Rs 10,213 cr as of Jun’24 is more than twice of its FY24 revenues which provides good revenue visibility.
On the flip side it may have some implications from Bangladesh crisis.
In Sep 2024, Transrail raised Rs. 50 cr via pre-IPO placement, at Rs. 484 per share. The IPO is priced at a discount to this price.
Transrail’s 12% EBITDA margin of FY24 is higher than Kalpataru (8%), KEC (6%), Skipper (10%) as well as Bajel (6%
I intend to apply in Transrail Lighting IPO. Government’s thrust on the revamped distribution sector scheme bodes well for the company and they have a good order book to be executed in next 2 years.
GMP as reported in media is Rs. 186 (43%)
