Although it has shown VIP and Safari as its peer and P/E ratios on the basis of performance as on 31.3.17 is well comparable, on performance front, it is legging much behind. (See page 103 of the offer document). Considering negative earnings for Q1 and the carried forward losses, P/E and P/BV ratios are not ascertained.

On merchant banker’s front, this is the 37th mandate from its stable so far (28th in last three fiscals).
