Outlook & Valuation: At the upper end of the IPO price band, it is offered at
34.6x its FY20 EPS and 11x its FY20 book value, demanding `6,000cr market
cap, which we believe is reasonable. Given CAMS’ leadership position, huge
growth potential of MF industry, strong return ratios, asset-light business and
higher dividend payout ratio, we are positive on this IPO and rate it as
SUBSCRIBE.
