IPOVista score

Balance sheet is the open question

63% of the scoring model was backed by disclosed data for Manilam Industries, giving medium confidence. Weights for anything missing were redistributed rather than scored as zero.

How this score is built
PillarScoreWeight

Below the line: market sentiment. Capped at 8 of 100 points so a hot grey market can tilt a score but never carry one.

Read this before the number

  • Leveraged balance sheet

    Debt-to-equity of 1.8× leaves limited headroom if demand softens or rates rise.

  • SME platform listing

    SME issues trade in larger lot sizes with thinner volumes than mainboard listings, which makes exiting a position harder.

The IPOVista Score is a transparent summary of disclosed fundamentals and issue terms. It is research, not investment advice, and it cannot predict listing performance.

The company

What the business actually does

Founded 2013 · Kolkata, West Bengal · 152 employees

Manilam Industries India manufactures decorative laminates — surfacing sheets 0.7 mm to 1 mm thick used on furniture, cabinetry and wall panelling — at a single plant covering 20,650 sq m at Manda, Bhojipura, in Bareilly district, Uttar Pradesh. It sells under the "Manilam" brand through 67 distributors and 358 dealers as of 30 September 2025, and runs a service depot in Bangalore. Collections include Artistica, Vogue, Dwar and Magnificent, spanning over 1,000 designs and 100 textures. Alongside laminates it manufactures small volumes of plywood and veneer and trades bought-in plywood, veneer, chemicals and lamination papers, serving industrial and commercial buyers. The registered office is in Kolkata; 152 permanent staff were on roll at 31 December 2025, with no contract labour.

Revenue is overwhelmingly manufactured laminates: ₹116.68 Cr of ₹140.03 Cr in FY25, or 83.33% of operating revenue, against 10.22% from traded goods. The RHP puts gross margin on manufacturing at 15-30% and on trading at 6-11%, so mix moves profit more than topline does: FY25 revenue sat below FY23's ₹148.10 Cr while EBITDA nearly doubled to ₹17.75 Cr as material consumed fell from ₹116.62 Cr to ₹96.14 Cr. The binding constraints are utilisation and debt: laminate sheet capacity use slid from 84.74% in FY23 to 73.31% in FY25, the industrial laminates line ran at 0.27%, and ₹62.44 Cr of FY25 borrowings cost ₹6.66 Cr in finance charges.

Hover or focus a segment to see who it is. The two bars are the same company, measured before and after the offer.

Percentages are of paid-up equity, and the “after” column assumes the offer is fully subscribed, which is how the offer document states it. This record does not disclose a pre- and post-issue share count, so the part of the company actually changing hands is not split out — everyone who is not a promoter is shown together.

What an allotment is worth now, before costs

Work it out

What this means for one application

Three calculations, each stating the assumption it rests on.

What one application costs

Shares are applied for in whole lots at the cut-off price. The full amount is blocked in your bank account under ASBA, not debited, until allotment.

Lots
2 lots, 4000 shares, ₹2,76,000 blocked
Shares applied for
4,000
At cut-off price
₹69.00
Amount blocked
₹2,76,000

One lot is 2000 shares at ₹1,38,000. This issue requires a minimum of 2 lots, so the smallest application is ₹2,76,000. That is how the SME board is built rather than a quirk of this issue: the minimum application is set above the ₹2,00,000 that caps a retail bid on the mainboard — two lots rather than one. The smallest bid here still sits in the individual investors’ category, the one the subscription figures call retail, and when that category is oversubscribed the minimum application is allotted by draw of lots — so the odds beside this apply directly.

Odds of getting an allotment

When the retail category is oversubscribed, SEBI requires a lottery for the minimum lot. Every application has the same chance, whatever its size.

Applicants per share available
5.9× the retail quota

This is an estimate of a lottery, not a prediction. Actual odds depend on the final basis of allotment, how many applications were at the minimum lot, and rejections for technical reasons. Applying from multiple distinct PANs is the only legitimate way to hold more tickets in that lottery.

This issue has listed, so there is a real number instead of a prediction. The grey-market premium is shown beside it for comparison.

Our read

Easy to misread

Grounded only in figures disclosed in the prospectus. This is analysis, not a recommendation.

Easy to miss in the prospectus

  • FY25 PAT of Rs 7.47 Cr includes Rs 2.14 Cr of other income, of which Rs 1.73 Cr is "liabilities no longer required written back" and Rs 0.37 Cr an FX gain — non-recurring items that account for roughly half the Rs 4.33 Cr jump in PAT over FY24. The EBITDA line above is unaffected: the RHP computes EBITDA before other income (verified against PBT plus finance cost plus depreciation for all three years).
  • A bonus issue on 5 July 2025 took share count from 24,50,000 to 1,71,50,000 before the IPO, so per-share figures are not comparable across this series — the RHP's own NAV per share falls from Rs 147.27 at FY25 to Rs 25.12 at 30 September 2025 on that basis alone, with no change in net worth direction.
  • Revenue is not a growth series: FY25 (Rs 140.03 Cr) is still below FY23 (Rs 148.10 Cr). The profit expansion comes from material cost falling from Rs 116.62 Cr to Rs 96.14 Cr and a shift from manufactured to traded plywood, not from volume.
  • The financials above are the restated CONSOLIDATED statements. The RHP also carries a standalone set with slightly lower profit (FY25 PAT Rs 7.38 Cr vs Rs 7.47 Cr); borrowings are identical on both bases.

How these figures were checked

Reconciled to Manilam Industries's own prospectus and to exchange disclosures, then cross-checked against 4 other independently published compilations of the same filing. Where a stated ratio disagreed with the line items it should come from, the disagreement was settled against the prospectus itself.

The prospectus is the authoritative document. Check anything that matters against it before you act.
