The IPO of the food cycle operator opened on Tuesday, November 9 and will close today - staying open for financiers for three days.

The company repaired a rate band of Rs 1,120 - Rs 1,180 per share for the IPO.

The IPO of over 17.5 million shares is completely an offer for sale (OFS) by the promoters and investors of the company.

The IPO proceeds, apart from concern expenditures, will go to shareholders who are selling their stakes.On Thursday, retail individual investors revealed optimal interest as the portion reserved for them is subscribed by 7.39 times up until now - the greatest amongst the 3 groups of investors.

Since fiscal 2019-20, Sapphire Foods India is YUM brand's largest franchise operator in the Indian subcontinent in terms of income At the greater end of the rate band, Sapphire Foods IPO is priced at a mcap/sales ratio of 7.4 times on a post-issue totally watered down basis (based on FY21 sales).

This is lower compared to its listed peers Jubilant Foodworks (12.1 times), Burger King (10.27 times) and Devyani International (15.71 times).

Nevertheless, as Jubilant Foodworks has remarkable success and return ratios, it is expected to command a premium valuation.Given lower profitability, sensible assessments, and poorer return ratios as compared to its peers, we remain 'Neutral' on the long-term prospects of the issue.Given a fancy for IPOs in the continuous season, the business might still see strong subscription numbers.

Investors looking for listing gains can subscribe to the problem, SEBI-registered financial investment advisor INDmoney said in a report.
