The issue was based on book-building method and the price band set for this issue was between Rs 470 - Rs 543 per share. The issue is an offer for sale (OFS) to provide an exit path for its private equity investors.

JDL is a debt-free company and has a negative working capital cycle. In addition, the company is reaping the early mover advantage to enter the local search space market in India, which has benefited the company in the primary market. The listing on bourses will provide it with a good branding platform too. Moreover, if the company expands its work area and increases its presence in the existing geographies, it is likely to perform in the long-run.

Thus, in the near future, JDL may face tough competition from new entrants in this sector. Although JDL is performing well at the moment, its valuations are too high and we therefore advise investors to stay away from the scrip. We had recommended that investors avoid the IPO (Volume 28 Issue No. 12) and maintain our stand on this scrip.
