Leading brokerage firms like Anand Rathi, Angel One, DRChoksey, Reliance Securities, SBICAP Securities, BP Wealth, Canmoney Securities, Marwadi Financial Services, and Swastika Investmart have given a “Subscribe” rating to the issue, citing company’s strong strategic presence in Mumbai’s ultra-luxury and luxury residential real estate market, consistent financial performance, and customer-centric approach. Sri Lotus Developers & Realty Ltd. reported a ~91% YoY jump in PAT and robust return ratios in FY25 (ROE: ~24.4%, ROCE: ~27.2%) alongside healthy EBITDA margins of ~52.6% and a conservative debt profile (D/E: 0.13x). Its asset-light model, timely execution track record, and integrated capabilities add to its appeal. While the IPO is seen as fully priced (P/E: ~30.6x–32.2x), brokerages find the valuation reasonable given its growth outlook, disciplined financial strategy, and exposure to high-entry-barrier redevelopment projects. Hence, they recommend a “Subscribe for long-term” rating.
