OYO (Oravel Stays) IPO Initiation: Tripped Up

By Arun George

  • Oyo (1698548D IN) is a leading hospitality technology platform. Its DRHP aimed for a $1.2 billion raise although recent reports point to a less than $1 billion raise.
  • The fundamentals are mixed as it remains uncertain if it can deliver profits or cash generation with a return to growth (due to gradual lifting of travel restrictions).
  • Based on the information in the DRHP, we believe the negatives outweigh the positives and we would give the IPO a pass.

By Devi Subhakesan

  • FSN E-Commerce Ventures (Nykaa) (NYKAA IN) announced a steady growth across all key operating metrics in both the Beauty and Fashion verticals for the quarter ending 31st December 2021.
