Anmol India IPO Recommendation

Now, let us come to the analysis part where we analyse different aspects of the business of the company including its strengths and risks.

One of the biggest strengths of the company is its ability to procure a large amount of stock at low margin money due to which the company is able to achieve big economies of scale which in turn helps it to give more discounts to the customers.

25% of the company’s sales are from retail and small-scale customers who are relatively less price sensitive due to which the company is able to thrive in bear markets as well.

The company has its presence through an app called “Anmol Coal” which is the only application for USA Coal in India due to which the visibility of the company has increased a lot and resulted in over 2000 inquiries in 2017.

The company can also relocate stock easily and its huge network of sales and distribution makes it possible for the company to always supply fresh stock to their customers.

Also, the company is able to meet urgent demands by their clients through reallocation of stocks and a huge number of orders and network and connectivity.

The company collects data consistently from suppliers in their industry due to which it can find the opportunity of buying “Distress Cargo” at discounted prices. It is a big advantage for the company.

The company also exhibits operational efficiencies in terms of zero waiting time, size of a unit order, easy arrangement of transportation, etc. The company has formed good relationships with their suppliers as well as competitors for better procurement.

The company has shown a good record of financial performance over the last few years. Profits after taxes have consistently grown and there is healthy cash on the balance sheet of the company. The highly experienced management team and skilled workforce are an added advantage for Anmol India Limited.

Now, let us discuss some of the important risk factors for the company.

The company is involved in certain legal proceedings and any adverse ruling in them may pose a risk to the overall profitability of the company.

The company’s registered office, branch office, warehouse, etc. are on lease and not owned. Any termination of the agreements may result in adverse effects to the company.

The company is exposed to risks of failure in obtaining the registration of their logo due to which the brand building efforts would not be able to bring desired results.

The insurance coverage is not sufficient to cover against some operating risks which poses a risk for the operations and profitability of the company.

The company has shown negative cash flows in the past and if it continues to be so, it may affect the future profitability of the company because cash is required for working capital requirements, expansion purposes, payment of dividends, etc.

The company is exposed to a risk of foreign exchange fluctuations.

If the company is unable to maintain optimal levels of inventory, it could affect the results and profitability of the operations. Dependence on a few suppliers, on third-party transportation providers for supply, etc. are another risks the company is exposed to.

After analysing various aspects of the company, it can be said that investors may choose to subscribe to the Anmol India IPO for long-term gains. For short-term profits, this IPO might not be able to make you happy!
