Conclusion and Investment Strategy

The Indian Pharmaceuticals market was valued at USD 59 billion in 2020, contributing to around 4% of the global market. The Indian market is expected to grow at around a CAGR of 10% between 2020 and 2025 fuelled by a substantial increase in Indian API domestic consumption.

The speciality chemicals manufactured by AMI are used in the agrochemicals and fine chemicals industry. The speciality chemicals portfolio is expected to be further enhanced with the acquisition of Gujarat Pharma. The specialty chemicals manufactured by the facilities acquired as part of the Acquisition are used in sectors like cosmetics, preservatives, and agrochemicals. Ami Organics has fairly good fundamentals; the only concern is on the sustainability of the margins. As per the management, the company would be net debt-free as it plans to repay its debt with the IPO proceeds and then plans to grow organically and inorganically after the IPO.  One may consider investing for the long term in the IPO. The GMP of Ami Organics IPO surged to Rs 155 per share.
