ABOUT COMPANY:

Incorporated in 2009 as KV Impex, it initially operated as an importer and trader of toys.

Our distribution capabilities ensure that our products are accessible to a broad consumer base, including Tier II and Tier III cities. As of October 31, 2025, it had 50 employees on its payroll, and additional 25 contract workers in various departments.
ISSUE DETAILS/CAPITAL HISTORY:
The company is coming out with its maiden book building route IPO of 1680000 equity shares to mobilize Rs. 40.15 cr. at the upper cap. It has announced a price band of Rs. 227 – Rs. 239 per share of Rs. 10 each. The IPO opens for subscription on December 08, 2025, and will close on December 10, 2025. The minimum application to be made is for 1200 shares and in multiple of 600 shares thereon, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE SME. The issue constitutes 26.75% of post-IPO paid-up equity capital of the company. From the net proceeds of the issue, the company will utilize Rs. 11.70 cr. for repayment/prepayment of certain borrowings, Rs. 20.92 cr. working capital, and the rest for general corporate purpose.
The IPO is solely lead managed by GYR Capital Advisors Pvt. Ltd., while Purva Sharegistry India Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. Giriraj Stock Broking Pvt. Ltd., is the market maker.
The company has issued/converted entire initial equity shares at par value. The average cost of acquisition of shares by the promoters is Rs. 10.00 per share.
Post-IPO, company’s current paid-up equity capital of Rs. 4.60 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 6.28 cr. Based on the upper price band of the IPO, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 150.09 cr.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
On the financial performance front, for the last two fiscals, the company has posted a total revenue/net profit/ – (loss), of Rs. NIL cr. / Rs. – (0.11) cr. (FY24), Rs. 62.87 cr. / Rs. 3.28 cr. (FY25 – up to January 31, 2025), and Rs. 22.73 cr. / Rs. 1.31 cr. (FY2 – from February 01, 2025 to March 31, 2025). For H1- FY26 ended on September 30, 2025, it earned a net profit of Rs. 4.06 cr. on a total revenue of Rs. 80.90 cr. Rising trade receivables raises alarm.
As a proprietorship concern, it has posted a turnover and net profits of Rs. 73.98 cr. / Rs. 2.01 cr. (FY23), Rs. 81.84 cr. / Rs. 3.19 cr. (FY24), and for FY25 – up to January 31, 2025, it posted a net profit of Rs. 1.05 cr. on a total turnover of Rs. 77.70 cr. Thus, it has dicey financial data.
For the last three fiscals, the company has reported an average EPS of Rs. NA, and an average RoNW of NA. The issue is priced at a P/BV of 8.37 based on its NAV of Rs. 28.57 as of September 30, 2025, but its post-IPO NAV data is missing from the offer documents.
If we attribute its FY26 super annualized earnings on post-IPO expanded equity base, then the asking price is at a P/E of 18.51, and based on its FY25 earnings, the P/E stands at 32.69. Thus, the issue appears greedily priced.
The company has posted PAT margins of NA% (FY24), 5.23% (FY25 – up to January 31, 2025), 5.76% (FY25 – from February 01, 2025 to March 31, 2025), 5.02% (H1-FY26), and RoCE Margins of – (1.56) %, 15.89%, 5.69%, 15.30%, respectively for the referred periods.
DIVIDEND POLICY:
The company has not declared any dividends for the reported periods of the offer document. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy, based on its financial performances and future prospects.
COMPARISON WITH LISTED PEERS:
As per the offer document, the company has shown OK Play as its listed peer. It is currently trading at a P/E of NA (as of December 05, 2025, 2025). However, they are not truly comparable on an apple-to-apple basis.
MERCHANT BANKER’S TRACK RECORDS:
This is the 52nd mandate from GYR Capital in the last five fiscals (including the ongoing one). Out of the last 11 listings, 1 opened at par, and the rest with premium ranging from 5.26% to 90.00% on the date of listing. The Lead Manager has a poor track record.
Conclusion / Investment Strategy
KVTIL is engaged in the business of contract manufacturing of various types of toys. It is operating in a highly competitive and fragmented segment. Its financial records are dicey with inconsistency. Based on its recent financial data, the issue appears greedily priced. Small paid-up equity capital post-IPO indicates longer gestation period. There is no harm in skipping this pricey and dicey bet.
