Should You Subscribe?
Both Reliance Securities and Canara Bank Securities recommend subscribing to the issue. Reliance Securities highlighted Vikran Engineering’s strong execution track record, alignment with government infrastructure push, and asset-light business model that enhances efficiency and scalability.
Canara Bank noted rapid growth in order execution, and experienced promoters. However, it flagged risks such as stretched working capital cycles and a recent ban from railway electrification projects by the Railways’ vigilance wing, which could weigh on order flows.
Objects of the IPO
The company plans to utilise the proceeds mainly for funding working capital requirements (Rs 541 crore) and for general corporate purposes.
