Key Insights:
Analysis of Financials:
The following are the financials of the company as per the Red Herring Prospectus filed by the company:

The company has negative cash flows from operating and investing activities in the fiscal year 2008, 2010 and 2011 and from financing activity for fiscal year 2009. Besides, the company has been incurring losses during fiscal 2008, 2010 and 2011.
During the FY08 and FY09, the company had no income from operations due to non-commencement of the company's business till then. The company has posted profit only in the first year of having its income from operations in FY2010 and again went into the red for FY2011 with a loss of around Rs.60 Lakhs in FY11
A profit and loss statement with losses in three out four preceding years does not permit a PE multiple or such other comparison either generally or relatively with peers. However, investors may find it difficult to shell out Rs.100/- to Rs.110/- a share for a loss incurring company, planning to venture into a business which is both new for the company as well as heavily dependent on the conditions of capital markets
