Review By Dilip Davda on September 29, 2021
• CWD stands for Connected Wireless Devices.
• On a standalone basis, it has poor financial data.
• The issue is priced very aggressively against its scale of operations.
• There is no harm in skipping this highly-priced issue.
PREFACE:
Though the company's IPO announcement was done three days before, its offer documents (despite being filed on September 25, 2021) were not traceable on any web till this morning (i.e. till 10.30 am of September 29, 2021. Finally, it was uploaded by the designated exchange after 11.00 hrs of 29.09.21. This indicates the behaviour of the concerned parties to it. What's more, till the time of writing this review (i.e. around 14.10 hrs of 29.09.21) company's website cwdin.com did not create an "Investors" page, so what kind of service one can expect from this company.
