Also the company has posted consecutive losses from last few years which doesn’t instill confidence for investment in short term, however in long term investment is advisable only when company will start posting profits. Hence we recommend “Avoid” on issue", says Hem Securities research report.

In addition to their coffee business, they operate other selected businesses that are aimed at leveraging India’s growth potential.

ICICI Direct says – “Subscribe to Café Coffee Day IPO”
ICICI Direct has released its analysis on Coffee day IPO. It indicates that “We believe CDEL, on the back of the Café Coffee Day business, would be a major beneficiary of a revival in urban discretionary consumption. At the price band of Rs 316-328, a target market cap and EV at the upper end of the price band would be Rs 6756 crore and Rs 10510 crore, respectively. Given the investment value of the IT, logistics, real estate & hospitality businesses is ~Rs 5025 crore, the coffee business is available at 4.3x EV/sales which is ~15% discount to global coffee chain Starbucks. We recommend SUBSCRIBE.
Aditya Birla Money says “Subscribe to Café Coffee Day IPO for long term”
AB Money in its research report on Coffee day IPO indicated that "At the higher price band of Rs 328, the stock is valued at ~2.0x its FY15 consolidated sales of ~ Rs 24.8bn. We have used SOTP methodology (Table on page 2) as an alternative approach to value CDEL. Our back of the envelope calculations suggest the stock is priced closer to its fair value at its upper price band and our one year forward Sept’2016 target is Rs 376/ share. Given a) CCD’s pan India presence, b) strong brand name and c) only listed paper (thereby giving it scarcity premium) in the space, we recommend “Subscribe” on CDEL IPO for long term investors".
