Tata Capital IPO: Expert’s take 

Tata Capital seeks to reduce its credit cost ratio below 1% by strengthening risk management and credit underwriting, supported by digital tools and analytics. By maintaining a diversified loan portfolio across products, customers, and geographies, and increasing the share of secured lending, the company minimises concentration risks, said Anand Rathi Research in an IPO note.

“At the upper price band company is valued at P/E of 32.3x, P/B of 3.5x to its FY25 earnings and market cap of Rs 1,38,382.7 crore post issue of equity shares. We believe that the IPO is fully priced and recommend a ‘Subscribe-Long Term’ rating to the IPO,” said the broker.
