Tamilnad Mercantile Bank Limited IPO Outlook:
The Indian banking sector is significantly under-penetrated which provides immense opportunities for banks and other financial institutions. The banking sector enjoyed healthy deposit growth of ~10% CAGR between Fiscals 2015 and 2020. Public banks which accounted for 71% market share in credit outstanding in Fiscal 2015, is only at 59% market share as of Fiscal 2021 while the rest was captured by the private banks. TMB is one of the oldest private bank of the country. It is a professionally managed bank and does not have an identifiable promoter or promoter group. It has a strong branch network and a healthy asset quality with effective risk management. However, adverse results of ongoing legal proceedings can adversely impact the business, reputation and financials of the bank. The future strategies of the bank are strengthening its product portfolio, improving efficiency and customer experience and continuous improvement in the asset quality. At the higher end of the Price band, the IPO is priced at 10 times considering FY22 Earnings. The IPO is fairly priced comparing to its peers. However, investors can look at other fundamentally strong banks available at fair valuations. Considering its regional presence majorly in the Tamil Nadu, we recommend high risk taking investors to subscribe.
