Should You Subscribe to the Sambhv Steel Tubes IPO? Geojit Financial Services – Subscribe At the upper price band of Rs 82, SSTL is valued at a P/E ratio of 44.5x (FY25E annualised), which appears reasonably priced relative to peers. SSTL is strategically positioned to benefit from India's infrastructure push, driven by schemes such as the Jal Jeevan Mission and Amrit Bharat Scheme. As a backward-integrated player with consistent financial growth, strategic sourcing efficiency, and expansion plans, the company is well-placed for long-term value creation—supporting a Subscribe recommendation for investors. BP Wealth – Subscribe BP Wealth highlights Sambhv's cost-efficient, single-location integrated facility and growing market share. Ventura Securities also recommends Subscribe, citing the company's robust distributor-dealer network across 15 states and one union territory, and its expansion into stainless steel products, which could improve margins in the future. Sambhv's product portfolio includes black pipes, hollow sections, CRFH pipes, Corten steel pipes, GP pipes, GI pipes, and more. Since commencing operations in 2018, the company has achieved vertical integration—manufacturing sponge iron, blooms, slabs, and coils in-house. This structure offers protection against input cost fluctuations and ensures supply chain reliability.
