Clean Science and Technology’s Rs 1,546 crore initial public offering (IPO) was subscribed 93.41 times on the third and final day of the issue, according to subscription data on the exchanges. The Pune-based specialty chemicals company’s IPO is entirely an offer for sale (OFS) by existing investors and will not involve a fresh issue of shares.

Clean Science and Technology IPO opened for subscription on Wednesday, July 7, and closed today – Friday, July 9, remaining open for investors for a period of three days. The company had fixed the price band of its primary market sale at Rs 880-900 per share.

The promoters who will be offloading stake in the firm include Krishnakumar Ramnarayan Boob, Ashok Ramnarayan Boob, Parth Ashok Maheshwari, and Siddhartha Ashok Sikchi.
”At the higher end of the price band, Clean Science IPO is reasonably priced at a P/E ratio of 48.2 times FY21 EPS (fully diluted on post-issue). This is lower as compared to peers such as Fine Organics (76 times), and Vinati Organics (68 times).
The global chemicals market was valued at $ 4,738 billion in 2019 with China accounting for 40% of the market share. The global chemicals market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.2 per cent from 2019 to 2025 and will be $ 6,785 in 2025. This gives very good growth visibility for Clean Science and Technology.
Given factors such as strong growth in bottomline, healthy margins, robust return ratios, good growth visibility, diversified business, and reasonable valuations, we remain positive on the prospects of this issue,” SEBI-registered Investment Advisor Indmoney said in a report.
Domestic brokerage firm Anand Rathi maintained a ‘subscribe’ rating for the IPO.
