Abhay Doshi, Founder, UnlistedArena.com, dealing in Pre-IPO & Unlisted Shares, told News18.com that “Delhivery is the largest and fastest-growing fully-integrated logistic services player in India by revenue as of FY21 covering 17,488 pin codes. Digital native business models like E-commerce, Social commerce are major drivers of growth for the express parcel delivery segment where Delhivery holds almost 22 per cent market share. The revenue growth has been robust with 49 per cent CAGR from FY19-21. However, losses have raised in a similar fashion. The offer is priced at almost 5.5x Mcap-to-Revenue based on post fresh issue and annualized metrics of 9MFY22. The valuations seems to be in-line with peers but the company being loss-making makes the issue look expensive. Dicey market sentiments and concern of investors towards loss-making start-ups may dampen the interest.”
