About the Company

Kalana Ispat, incorporated in 2012, manufactures M.S. and Alloy Steel Billets in different grades. The company focuses on both product sales and service sales. Its manufacturing plant is certified with ISO 2830:2012, and it has an annual production capacity of 38,000 metric tons.

Although the company’s revenue dropped by 11% between FY23 and FY24, its profit after tax (PAT) increased by a huge 373% in the same period.

Review

Dilip Davda from Chittorgarh.com stated that while the company showed significant profits in FY24, this sudden growth raises concerns about whether it’s sustainable. He also noted that the future of the company depends on its solar power plant project. Based on the high profits in FY24, the IPO appears to be aggressively priced, and well-informed investors may consider this IPO for long-term investment.
