Review By Dilip Davda on September 23, 2022
• LLL is in the men's beautification segment which is a highly competitive and fragmented one.
• The company has posted losses for the reported periods of the offer document.
• It also has carried forward losses.
• Based on its financial parameters, the issue is at a negative P/E.
• Simply stay away from this loss-making company's IPO.
ABOUT COMPANY:
