IPO of Rudra gas, also in pipeline laying segment, is showing 80% premium to its IPO price. This means that it will list on 15th Feb at close to 22PE while much bigger and consistent Likhitha Infra is available at 15PE.

If government can pull this off successfully, it could really speed up pipeline laying process throughout India.

Is anyone tracking, based on the projects in hand, what’s the annual revenue Likhitha can do in this FY?

There CCC from last two years are more than 366 days so it’s really hard to predict there sales YOY.
But if you have to take an idea I would say by looking there ORDER BOOK and how the current government is focusing on infrastructure. They will continue to grow there sales @30% for next five years.

There is immense opportunity for likhita infrastructure.

As of now, the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB) has authorized 293 Geographical Areas (GAs), which cover approximately 96% of the population in India. These areas span 617 districts across the country.

The focus on a gas-based economy is indeed a significant part of India’s energy strategy.

  1. One Nation, One Gas-Grid: The concept of a unified gas grid aims to enhance the availability and accessibility of natural gas across the nation. This integrated approach facilitates efficient distribution and utilization of gas resources.

  2. Increasing Natural Gas Share: The government has taken proactive steps to boost the share of natural gas in India’s energy mix. The goal is to raise it from the current 6.7% to 15% by 2030.

  3. Infrastructure Development: India is witnessing substantial progress in pipeline infrastructure. Approximately 16,000 kilometers of new gas pipelines are being developed across the country.

  4. Atmanirbhar Bharat: A gas-based economy contributes to self-reliance (Atmanirbhar Bharat).

  5. Rising Demand: The demand for natural gas is increasing, especially in power generation and transportation sectors.

The target of achieving a 15% share of natural gas in the energy mix by 2030 reflects the nation’s commitment to sustainable and efficient energy practices.

Hi all, please look at the screenshot. Can someone explain why or how the material cost is always decreasing y-o-y from 2020 onwards? Also the employee cost is decreasing, which I am not able to understand? Please point out as to what may be the reasons for these.

They are basically contract worker so mostly they need money to purchase equipments like HDD machine, JCB for pipeline laying work. They don’t need to purchase every year. Just maintenance cost! Plus see the bump in 2022, might have purchased new equipment.

Employee cost: That is as % of revenue which is increasing so their revenue increased on same employee base.
