Outlook & Valuation:

We believe wealth management is the new theme which will market like to bet on amid rising awareness about wealth management, thanks to technology. The penetration of this segment is very low in India therefore the opportunity is big for this industry however competition and regulatory issues are key challenges. The overall outlook for the Indian equity market looks very bullish for the next couple of years which is another big tailwind for companies that deal in the wealth management business. If we talk particularly about Anand Rathi then it has well-experienced management with a strong brand name and distribution network. The key highlight of Anand Rathi's wealth management business is that it deals with HNI clients with a capital of between 5-50cr. Margins are declining side despite its HNI customer base however future outlook looks promising. If we look at the valuations then IPO is arriving at PE of 50x to its FY21 EPS of 10.85 and 18.6x to its annualized earnings of 5MFY22. IIFL wealth is trading at a PE of 22 therefore this IPO is fully priced. On the back of a positive outlook for the industry, we have a subscribe rating for this IPO for the medium to long term view while one can also apply for moderate listing gain.
