Should You Subscribe? What Analysts Say

Bajaj Broking and Anand Rathi both recommend a “Subscribe for long-term” stance.

“Aditya Infotech is a market leader in India’s growing video surveillance industry with a strong brand presence and consistent profitability,” said Bajaj Broking.

Anand Rathi highlighted valuation concerns but backed the firm’s dominance:

“At ₹675, the IPO is priced at 22.5x FY25 projected earnings. The business has a robust revenue and profit trajectory with limited domestic competition.”

However, INVasset PMS analyst Jickson Sajee offered a measured view:

“Despite the ₹200+ GMP, future valuation will depend on market execution and infrastructure demand.”
