Tata Tech IPO: What experts are saying
Mohit Gulati, CIO & Managing Partner of ITI Growth Opportunities Fund, told Mint that the Tata Tech IPO is a significant step for the Tata Group to reduce its debt.
He also pointed out that a price per share could reasonably be around ₹280 to ₹320.
“ ₹18k to ₹20k-crore market-cap will be fair in my opinion. Euphoria can probably take it to 30-35k. Anything above that is a sure stretch,” Gulati said.

Vinit Bolinjkar, Head of Research, Ventura Securities, told Mint that companies in the Engineering Research and development (ER&D) industry are likely to exhibit superior business prospects in comparison to traditional IT firms.
He pointed out these companies have an enhanced growth potential both within India and abroad, adding that this is a result of sustained investments in new product development and process optimization.
“Tata Tech, as a progressive player in the global ER&D sector, stands poised for robust growth. We are confident that Tata Tech will meet investors’ expectations, especially considering the current buzz in the primary market this year,” added Bolinjkar.
