The question this issue poses
In one sentence
Utkal Speciality Industries makes extrusion-coated paper rolls and sheets and paper-based disposable tableware at a single plant in the IDCO Food Processing Park at Khurda, Odisha, and employs 50 people; the record puts coated rolls and sheets at 67.9% of revenue and business-to-business sales at 94.5% of revenue in the nine months to December 2025. Revenue was Rs 46.23 Cr in FY23, Rs 44.15 Cr in FY24 and Rs 50.28 Cr in FY25, a total rise of 8.76% across those two years, while profit after tax went from Rs 2.21 Cr to Rs 3.24 Cr to Rs 6.68 Cr. The Rs 34.54 Cr issue was entirely fresh, with the offer for sale at nil, priced at Rs 62-66 with a lot of 2,000 shares, and the book finished at 1.60 times on 12 June 2026. It listed on NSE Emerge on 17 June 2026 at Rs 66, the top of the band, closed that day at Rs 62.70 and stood at Rs 46 on 23 October 2026.
IPOVista score
How this issue scores, and why
Every pillar opens to show the raw metric, the curve it was mapped through, the sub-score and its weight. Disagree with the weighting if you like — the arithmetic is all here.
IPOVista score
A trade-off in both directions
63% of the scoring model was backed by disclosed data for Utkal Speciality, giving medium confidence. Weights for anything missing were redistributed rather than scored as zero.
How this score is builtBelow 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
SME platform listing
SME issues trade in larger lot sizes with thinner volumes than mainboard listings, which makes exiting a position harder.

The company
What the business actually does
Founded 2015 · Khurda, Odisha · 50 employees
Utkal Speciality Industries makes paper-based packaging and disposable tableware at a single plant in the IDCO Food Processing Park at Khurda, Odisha. Its largest lines are intermediates rather than finished goods: extrusion-coated paper rolls and coated sheets (blanks, fans, circles) were together 67.9% of revenue in the nine months to December 2025. The rest is finished product — paper cups, glasses, plates and bowls at 15.1%, sweet, pizza and bakery boxes, lids and wraps at 8.9%, and napkins, tissues and aluminium foil at 6.8%. Most buyers are other converters and small manufacturers who take the coated stock and finish it themselves; business-to-business sales were 94.5% of revenue in that period, the balance going to end retailers. The company listed 1,562 SKUs in FY25.
Revenue comes from selling at several points along its own production chain: coated rolls and sheets to converters who finish them, and fully finished cups, boxes and napkins to manufacturers and retailers, plus small amounts of polyethylene trading and contract coating (together 2.5% of nine-month FY26 revenue). The constraint is the cost of raw paper and coating material. Raw material consumed was 91.32% of revenue from operations in FY23 and 83.26% in FY25, easing to 80.55% in the nine months to December 2025; the margin story is almost entirely that ratio. Operating EBITDA margin moved from 9.21% in FY23 to 18.96% in FY25 and 19.51% in the stub period.

- Everyone else
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.
- Shares applied for
- 4,000
- At cut-off price
- ₹66.00
- Amount blocked
- ₹2,64,000
One lot is 2000 shares at ₹1,32,000. This issue requires a minimum of 2 lots, so the smallest application is ₹2,64,000. 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.
~48%
chance of one lot, per application
- Retail subscription
- 2.10×
- Applicants per share available
- 2.1× 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.

Our read
The case for and against
Grounded only in figures disclosed in the prospectus. This is analysis, not a recommendation.
What works
- Profit after tax was Rs 2.21 Cr in FY23, Rs 3.24 Cr in FY24 and Rs 6.68 Cr in FY25, rises of 46.61% and then 106.17%. Revenue over the same years was Rs 46.23 Cr, Rs 44.15 Cr and Rs 50.28 Cr, so the FY24 profit figure was 46.61% higher on revenue 4.50% lower.
- Borrowings measured against net worth were 4.19x in FY23 (Rs 25.41 Cr against Rs 6.07 Cr), and lower in each period after it: 2.56x in FY24 (Rs 25.43 Cr against Rs 9.95 Cr), 0.80x in FY25 (Rs 17.37 Cr against Rs 21.64 Cr) and 0.63x at 31 December 2025 (Rs 17.16 Cr against Rs 27.12 Cr). The absolute borrowing figure was Rs 25.41 Cr, Rs 25.43 Cr, Rs 17.37 Cr and Rs 17.16 Cr across those four periods.
- The record puts raw material consumed at 91.32% of revenue from operations in FY23, 83.26% in FY25 and 80.55% in the nine months to December 2025, and operating EBITDA margin at 9.21%, 18.96% and 19.51% at the same three points; it gives no FY24 figure for either. EBITDA in rupee terms was Rs 4.56 Cr in FY23, Rs 6.44 Cr in FY24, Rs 10.88 Cr in FY25 and Rs 8.88 Cr in the nine months to December 2025.
- The whole Rs 34.54 Cr was a fresh issue, with the offer-for-sale component at zero, set against net worth of Rs 27.12 Cr at 31 December 2025. Promoter holding went from 100% before the issue to 73.2% after it.
What to weigh against it
- The shares listed at Rs 66, level with the Rs 66 top of the band, for a listing gain of 0%. They closed the first day at Rs 62.70, 5.00% below the listing price, and stood at Rs 46 on 23 October 2026, 30.30% below the Rs 66 issue price and 26.63% below that first-day close.
- On the final day of the book, 12 June 2026, the issue was subscribed 1.60 times overall, with the qualified institutional category at 1.12 times, retail at 2.10 times and the non-institutional category at 0.89 times, which is below one time.
- Revenue fell from Rs 46.23 Cr in FY23 to Rs 44.15 Cr in FY24, a decline of 4.50%, before reaching Rs 50.28 Cr in FY25. Over the two years from FY23 to FY25 the increase was 8.76% in total, against profit after tax that went from Rs 2.21 Cr to Rs 6.68 Cr over the same span.
- Production sits at one plant, in the IDCO Food Processing Park at Khurda, Odisha, and the company employed 50 people. The record puts coated rolls and sheets at 67.9% of revenue in the nine months to December 2025, with paper cups, glasses, plates and bowls at 15.1%, boxes, lids and wraps at 8.9%, napkins, tissues and aluminium foil at 6.8%, and polyethylene trading plus contract coating at 2.5%; business-to-business sales were 94.5% of revenue in that period.
Easy to miss in the prospectus
- Nine-month FY26 revenue, to 31 December 2025, was Rs 40.90 Cr, which is 81.3% of the FY25 full-year figure of Rs 50.28 Cr; nine-month profit after tax of Rs 5.48 Cr is 82.0% of FY25's Rs 6.68 Cr. Nine months is three-quarters of a year, so both stand above a straight pro-rata 75%. The record carries no fourth-quarter or full-year FY26 figures, so no FY26 annual comparison can be made from it.
- The record holds one subscription snapshot only, day 3 dated 12 June 2026, with no day 1 or day 2 figures, no anchor book and no category allocation split.
- The record carries no valuation block, no peer set and no post-issue share count, so no earnings multiple or market capitalisation at the Rs 62-66 band can be computed from it.
