Cox and King’s IPO – Review and Analysis

Cox and King’s IPO is opening for subscription on November 18th, 2009 and will close on November 20th, 2009. Cox and Kings is a global tour operator, deriving majority of its revenues from the leisure segment. The company has a strong presence in the emerging and developed markets, and offers travel, forex and visa services. The price band for the IPO is 316-330/ Rs. per share.

Should you subscribe?

  • Cox and King have shown tremendous performance in the past.
  • Business holds high growth potential in the near future with the events like common wealth games
  • In the price range of close to 330 the stock would be close to 15 times its FY09 EPS

I would be subscribing to this IPO.

What next?

  1. I an sorry Shabbir but I have a different opinion on this. I would stay away from the subscription offer and would enter in the stock once it gets stabilized as the other IPOs are doing today… We have seen the stories like Adani Power and NHPC which have got a deep beating… :) Lets see if my decision pays off :)

  2. Lets see. I have already done the investment and so I would anyway be tracking it.

  3. Hi Shabbir,

    I have also invested 1 Lac in Cox and Kings IPO looking at analyst recommendations. I am surprised that retail category subscribed by less than 1 time. How much did you apply? After looking at the oversubscription what do you think will be the listing?

  4. Its not about the over-subscription numbers that you should look at because they can evaporate very easily.

    Thinksoft IPO was not subscribed for some reasons but is at double the price.

  5. I have too applied for the same but a modest 140 share application. Lets see how many i get.

    Regards.

  6. Well…this is to update i got 100% allotment of shares aginst my application of 140 shares.

    Lets hope for the best.

    Regards.
