Should you subscribe to the Pace Digitek IPO?

Choice Equity Broking - Subscribe 

According to analysts at Choice, Pace Digitek has evolved from a pure equipment manufacturer to a turnkey solutions player with strengths in backward integration, diversified verticals, government-backed projects (solarisation, rural electrification, KAVACH), and expansion into African markets. With India’s renewable energy push and rising demand for energy storage solutions, PDL is strategically placed to benefit from long-term industry growth.
 
"At the upper end of its price band, the company is valued at a P/E of 16.9x (FY25 EPS of Rs. 12.9) and EV/Sales of 1.6x, which is at a discount to peers. A robust order book ensures steady revenue visibility, while its integrated business model drives cost efficiency and quality control," the brokerage said in a note.
 
Choice Equity Broking has assigned a 'Subscribe' rating to the issue, citing strong sector tailwinds in renewable energy and geographic diversification. 

SBI Securities - Neutral 

SBI Securities, in its note, said while comparing with its close peers, the valuation appears to be reasonable; however, high working capital requirement and customer concentration remain key monitorables.
 
"At the upper price band of ₹219, the IPO is valued at a P/E multiple of 16.9x based on FY25 EPS on post-issue capital. Historically, PDL has recorded a CAGR of 120 per cent/313 per cent/311 per cent in Revenue/Ebitda/PAT at ₹2,439 crore/ ₹482 crore/ ₹279 crore respectively during the FY23-25 period," the brokerage said.
 
SBI Securities maintains a 'Neutral' view on Pace Digitek, adding that it would like to monitor the performance of the company vis-à-vis its major peers post listing.
