By Sudarshan Bhandari

  • Karamtara Engineering opens its Rs.875 crore IPO on September 9, 2026, with a price band of Rs.241 to Rs.254 per share, closing September 11.
  • The company is India’s largest integrated maker of solar mounting structures, growing revenue at a 33% CAGR over FY24 to FY26, though supplier and customer concentration are both rising.
  • At close to 32 times FY26 earnings at the top of the band, issue prices at premium to most listed peers, making capacity ramp-up and cost control the key monitorables.

Gokaldas Exports: Riding the Wave of Changing Global Sourcing Economics

By Sudarshan Bhandari

  • Gokaldas Exports has transformed from a domestic manufacturer into a multi-region exporter, almost doubling consolidated revenues from INR 2,222 crore (FY23) to INR 3,988 crore (FY26).
  • Through key acquisitions (like Atraco in East Africa), the company now operates across both India and Africa, offering global buyers flexible trade regimes, distinct labor costs, and diversified sourcing options.
  • Global buyers are moving beyond traditional-categories into high-volume segments like denim, bottoms, and shirts historically dominated by Bangladesh while exports to Europe are rising alongside zero-duty access under UK FTA.

Primer: Dhoot Transmission (DHOOTTRA IN) – Sep 2026

By αSK Primers

  • Dhoot Transmission Limited (Ticker: DHOOTTRA IN) is a Tier-1 automotive electrical and electronics manufacturer, commanding an entrenched ~41% market share in India’s two-wheeler (2W) and three-wheeler (3W) wiring harness industry and an industry-leading ~70% share in electric 2W/3W wiring architectures.
  • Top-line expansion has been robust, with revenues compounding at a 27.2% CAGR from INR 27,977.26M in FY2024 to INR 45,249.55M in FY2026, driven by vehicle electrification, premiumization, and expanding content per vehicle, though EBITDA margins contracted from 18.57% to 15.99% over the same period.
  • Trading at a trailing P/E of 76.4x and P/B of 12.5x, the stock commands a substantial valuation premium relative to direct peers like Motherson Sumi Wiring India (38.6x P/E), leaving limited margin of safety amid persistent negative Free Cash Flow to Equity (INR -675.56M in FY2026) resulting from heavy growth capex.

Jubilant Ingrevia- Transformation with Some Caveats

By Nitin Mangal

  • Jubilant Ingrevia (JUBLINGR IN) ’s Business Mix is improving with Specialty Chemicals driving 75% of EBITDA; however, capital efficiency remains subdued as asset turnover and ROCE have yet to recover.
