Should you invest in this IPO?

Since the company is in the business of manufacturing and selling Decorative laminates, which are always in demand so the sector in which they are operating is very good and there is constant demand in the market for such products.

Company manufactures “Quality Products” and there is no compromise on Quality(for quality they have received ISO Certification), and what i have noticed over the years is that whichever company focuses and sells quality products they are bound to grow by leaps and bounds and i see that potential in this company.

I would like to share one most important point that i noticed in the investor presentation report is that the promoters of the company are very passionate and dedicated in running the business,what i mean to say is that the way they have created a brand name for the products in the market for which they had done many advertising campaigns for promoting the brand and also the way they have scaled up the business in commendable.

And from a shareholders point of view I would like to add one more point that the companies which are operating in this particular segment has proved to be multibaggers. Now its upto you to decide whether to apply or skip the ipo.
