IPO Concise Review by Paresh Gordhandas, CA & Research Analyst

PhysicsWallah Ltd., one of India’s fastest-growing edtech companies, is launching its maiden IPO at an upper price band of Rs. 109 per share (Face Value Rs. 1). The company has built a strong hybrid education model combining online platforms and physical centers to cater to competitive exams such as JEE, NEET, and UPSC, and professional upskilling in Data Science, Finance, and Tech.

In FY2025, PhysicsWallah reported Rs. 3,039 crore revenue, a 51% YoY growth, backed by 4.13 million online learners and 0.33 million offline students across 198 centers. Despite robust topline expansion, it posted a loss of Rs. 243 crore in FY25 — a sharp improvement from Rs. 1,131 crore loss in FY24, reflecting strong cost optimization and turnaround in operations.

EBITDA turned positive at Rs. 193 crore, indicating early signs of profitability. Borrowings dropped drastically to Rs. 0.33 crore from Rs. 1,687 crore a year ago, showcasing a clean balance sheet and healthy net worth of Rs. 1,945 crore.

The company enjoys one of the highest brand equities in Indian edtech, with 13.7 million YouTube subscribers and a diversified content portfolio of 3,582 books. However, sustainability of margins and offline scalability remain key watchpoints.

Chanakya View: With strong revenue visibility, brand loyalty, and a sharp financial turnaround, the IPO offers long-term growth potential, though near-term valuations hinge on sustained profitability.

IPO Concise Review by Paresh Gordhandas, CA & Research Analyst

Emmvee Photovoltaic has successfully transformed from a modest solar equipment player into a large-scale integrated renewable enterprise. The consistent rise in revenue, sharp profit expansion, and debt reduction reflect strong operational efficiency. The IPO is attractively priced relative to industry peers, considering the fast-growing solar energy market and government-backed manufacturing incentives.

Investment Verdict: Apply for strong listing and medium-term gains.
Solid fundamentals, improving balance sheet, and favorable policy tailwinds make this IPO one of the most promising renewable energy plays of FY26.
