According to analysts at Anand Rathi, Regaal Resources is well-positioned to capitalise on its strategic location in Kishanganj, a key maize belt accounting for 11.58 per cent of national output and its proximity to major mandis and cross-border markets. 

 

"With capacity utilisation at 99.74 per cent and an ongoing scale-up from 750 to 1,650 tonnes per day (TPD), the company demonstrates strong demand visibility and robust execution capabilities," the brokerage said in a note. 

 

The company’s 54-acre integrated facility, in-house power plant, and ESG-compliant systems strengthen its ability to operate smoothly and sustainably. Its wide range of products – including both native and modified starches - serves fast-growing industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, and personal care. With a growing presence across India, strong customer relationships, and an effective sourcing strategy, the company continues to build a solid competitive advantage. 

 

However, analysts believe that the company has a capital-intensive nature of operations, exposure to Agri cycles, and limited pricing power in a commoditised market. 

 

"On the valuation front, based on annualised FY25 earnings, the company is seeking a P/E of 21.9 times, and a post-issue market capitalisation of approximately ₹1,047.7 crore, making the issue appear fully priced," the brokerage said.

With a broad product portfolio catering to various industries, Regaal is well-positioned to capitalise on favourable industry trends.

 

"At the upper band of ₹102, the issue is valued at a P/E of 22x based on the FY25 EPS of ₹4.64. We recommend a 'Subscribe for long term' rating for this issue," the brokerage said.
