(GMP taken from various IPO related Websites and Apps)
My detailed notes and views on this SME are as follows:
(Notes prepared after going through its RHP filed with NSE, Online Investors Meet, IPO Presentation and IPO notes)
🔹Shivalic Power was incorporated in 2004 and it is an ISO-certified LT and HT electric panel manufacturer.
🔹It manufactures a diversified range of electric panels such as PCC Panels, IMCC Panels, Smart Panels, MCC Panels, DG synchronization panels, Outdoor panels, HT Panels up to 33KV, VFD Panels, Power Distribution Boards, Bus Duct and LT & HT APFC Panels.
🔹Shivalic is authorised by L&T, Siemens, Schneider Electric and TDK to manufacture fully typetested panels which it serves to more than 15+ industrial Sectors in India as well as in outside India, like Nepal, Bangladesh, African countries such as Uganda, Kenya, Nigeria, Algeria
🔹Company buys most of the materials directly from industrial giants like L&T, Siemens, ABB, C&S and EPCOS
🔹Usually Shivalik is serving traditional industries like FMCG, Metal, Cement, Automobile etc. But from the last year it has diversified its business and started serving to data centre industry as well
🔹Modern facility set up in IMT Faridabad equipped to showcase immediate 3x growth
🔹Strategic Partnerships with Siemens, Schneider, L&T & Epcos
🔹Shivalic got its biggest order for LT works in the RBI Data Centre complex at Bhubaneshwar from HPE in November 2023.
🔹Company has over 500 client base from 20 different sectors. It includes Airtel, Tata Steel, JSW, Coca Cola, JK Papers, Maruti, Honda, Natco, Godrej, Cadbury, Siemens, L&T and many more
🔹Shivalic is going for expansion and planning to open new offices like Kolkata, Ahmedabad (in 2024 and Mumbai, Hyderabad, Nepal and Bangladesh (in 2025)
🔹IPO funds will be utilized as :-
(i) Capital Expenditure - Funding for procurement of new machineries and Construction of new assembly line by shedding the roof
(ii) to meet the working capital requirements of the company
(iii) to meet out the inorganic growth through unidentified acquisition for Company
(iv) General Corporate Expenses
🔹Company has been growing at 35% CAGR since last 10 years
🔹Generally companies take 30 Years to reach 100 Crore mark in Control Panel Industry whereas Shivalic has reached in 10 years only
🔹Experienced management and Skilled employee base
🔹If I attribute annualized FY 24 earnings to its post-IPO fully diluted paid-up capital, then IPO is coming at approx P/E of 24x which is reasonable if I compare it with its listed peers
🔹Track Record of its Merchant Banker, i.e. Corporate Capital Ventures (CCV) is good
🔹Last few IPOs handled by CCV are GP Eco Solutions, Creative Graphics, Trust Fintech, Oriana Power, Rocking Deals, Alpex Solar, Esconet Technologies and Accent Microcell
🔹Anchor List seems impressive
Do proper study/research before applying in SME IPOs.

Question- (2/2)
What is better: A single expensive API call heavily ratelimited or multiple less-expensive API calls? My concern is multiple calls might look like a mini ddos when multiple clients make it. Also what's the threshold to stop with HTTP Requests and switch to WS?
@ialimustufa@APIDayJaipur#PostmanStudent (1/2) Thank you for the wonderful session Sir! The examples were really great and taught me a lot. I really love the touch of humour which made the session interesting.
I have a question Sir-
