What distinguishes this issue is the sheer scale of the March 2024 bonus issue: a 30 for 1 bonus expanded the share count so much that NAV per share fell from Rs.409.12 before the bonus to Rs.13.20 immediately after, on the same underlying net worth. This is a Fresh Issue only, with no promoter or investor exit.
How Will the IPO Money Be Used?
This is a Fresh Issue only, with no Offer for Sale.

The object has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution.
Financial Performance:
Revenue, EBITDA, and Profitability
Rs. Lakhs | FY2026 | FY2025 | FY2024 |
Revenue from Operations | 12,202.99 | 11,241.79 | 9,277.86 |
Profit Before Tax | 1,914.56 | 918.12 | 522.44 |
Profit After Tax | 1,386.82 | 672.83 | 134.72 |
PAT Margin | 11.36% | 5.99% | 1.45% |
EPS, Basic and Diluted (Rs.), post bonus | 11.60 | 5.69 | 1.27 |
Return on Net Worth | 32.50% | 23.36% | 9.59% |
Revenue grew 8.55% in FY2026 to Rs.12,202.99 Lakhs, but PAT grew far faster, more than doubling to Rs.1,386.82 Lakhs from Rs.672.83 Lakhs, itself up nearly five fold from Rs.134.72 Lakhs in FY2024. PAT margin expanded sharply across all three years, from 1.45% to 11.36%, and RoNW rose from 9.59% to 32.50% over the same period, a trend of steadily improving profitability rather than one off gains.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Rs. Lakhs | FY2026 | FY2025 | FY2024 |
Total Assets | 9,626.06 | 7,608.78 | 6,024.91 |
Total Equity | 4,266.83 | 2,880.02 | 1,404.72 |
Total Borrowings | 3,324.80 | 3,347.13 | 3,259.02 |
Trade Receivables | 2,539.76 | 2,114.21 | 1,260.75 |
Net Cash from Operating Activities | 590.16 | (257.15) | (73.92) |
NAV per Share (Rs.), post bonus | 35.68 | 24.37 | 13.20 |
Operating cash flow turned positive in FY2026, Rs.590.16 Lakhs, reversing negative generation in both FY2025 and FY2024, Rs.257.15 Lakhs and Rs.73.92 Lakhs used respectively, as growing trade receivables and inventory had previously outpaced operating profit.
Total borrowings have stayed roughly flat across all three years, around Rs.3,300 Lakhs, even as revenue and equity both grew, a modest improvement in leverage. NAV per share nearly tripled from Rs.13.20 in FY2024 to Rs.35.68 in FY2026 on the post bonus share base.
How Does It Compare to Peers?
The RHP names three listed peers: Shiva Texyarn, Sangam (India) and Donear Industries, based on closing BSE prices as of September 15, 2026, and itself notes the peers are not strictly comparable in scale or turnover. Paramount Syntex's own P/E cannot be shown until the Issue Price is set.
Company | EPS (Rs.) | P/E (x) | NAV (Rs.) | RoNW (%) |
Paramount Syntex Limited | 11.60 | [TBD] | 35.68 | 32.50% |
Shiva Texyarn Limited | 7.50 | 23.35 | 111.22 | 6.74% |
Sangam (India) Limited | 17.06 | 33.15 | 214.17 | 7.96% |
Donear Industries Limited | 8.36 | 9.83 | 53.26 | 15.69% |
Paramount Syntex's RoNW of 32.50% is far higher than all three named peers, the closest of which, Donear Industries, reaches only 15.69%. The RHP's stated industry P/E range runs from 14.88 to 75.28 with an average of 45.08, figures that do not correspond exactly to the three peers shown in the accounting ratio table, so investors should treat the industry P/E figures as a separate, broader reference set rather than derived only from these three names.
Key Risks
• Nine pending tax matters totalling Rs.528.92 Lakhs are outstanding against the company as of the RHP date.
• Top 10 customers contributed 54.81% of FY2026 sales, though this has eased from 67.36% in FY2024; the company's own risk disclosure names customer and supplier concentration together as a material risk.
• Operating cash flow was negative in both FY2024 and FY2025, Rs.73.92 Lakhs and Rs.257.15 Lakhs used respectively, only turning positive in FY2026 at Rs.590.16 Lakhs; the single year of positive cash flow is not yet a proven multi year pattern.
• The company operates a single manufacturing site in Ludhiana, Punjab, across two factory units, so any disruption there directly affects the entire business, and reported capacity utilisation of 70% to 83% is already near optimal levels by the company's own description.
• The RHP's industry P/E figures, ranging from 14.88 to 75.28 with an average of 45.08, do not map cleanly onto the three named peers shown in the accounting ratio table, adding some ambiguity to how the Issue Price will ultimately be benchmarked.
• The 30 for 1 bonus issue completed in March 2024 sharply reduced NAV per share on the same underlying net worth, from Rs.409.12 to Rs.13.20, a scale of capital restructuring investors should keep in mind when reading historical per share trends.
• Raw material for recycled acrylic fibre is sourced internationally from Thailand and China alongside domestic supply, exposing the company to import, currency and cross border supply risk.
• The single quantified Net Proceeds object has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution, though it is backed by a Detailed Project Report from an external valuer.
• The company only converted from a private to a public company in July 2024, a limited track record operating under public company governance standards ahead of this listing.
• The synthetic yarn and textile industry is subject to raw material price volatility and demand cyclicality tied to broader apparel and textile end markets.
• The extracted RHP text did not identify the Book Running Lead Manager, Registrar or Bid dates; investors should confirm these directly from the final RHP or Prospectus before applying.
Positives to Note
• PAT more than doubled in FY2026 to Rs.1,386.82 Lakhs from Rs.672.83 Lakhs, itself up nearly five fold from Rs.134.72 Lakhs in FY2024, a sustained multi year improvement rather than a single good year.
• PAT margin and RoNW both expanded every year shown, from 1.45% and 9.59% in FY2024 to 11.36% and 32.50% in FY2026.
• Customer concentration eased from 67.36% of sales in FY2024 to 54.81% in FY2026, a genuine broadening of the customer base.
• The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 45001:2018 and ISO 14001:2015 certification and Good Manufacturing Practice status, credentials that support both domestic and export customer relationships.
• RoNW of 32.50% in FY2026 is well ahead of all three named listed peers, none of which exceed 16%.
• The company's recycling driven business model, converting waste acrylic fibre sourced domestically and internationally into value added yarns, gives it a sustainability positioning distinct from conventional yarn manufacturers.
