In our earlier detailed report <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/insights/kalyan-jewellers-ipo-lacks-lustre-look-beyond-the-prospectus" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="insights:44841" rel="noopener">Kalyan Jewellers (IPO): Lacks Lustre. Look Beyond the Prospectus</a>, we had highlighted concerns on the company's growth prospects. Kalyan has reported steep losses for 9 months ending December 2020 and highlighted that sales from the Middle-east fell steeply compared to India. India based jewellers had managed to report a turnaround in this period helped by a strong recovery in the December quarter. Kalyan's downsized IPO is priced almost at the average investment cost price of its private equity investor, Warburg Pincus.
