Avoid Fatpipe Networks IPO, says Hem Securities

“The company is bringing the issue at price band of Rs 82-85 per share which will have the P/E multiple of 22-23 on post issue annualized EPS of Rs 3.69 (on higher band of Rs 85/share). During the 9MFY10 the intangible assets contribute major part of gross block of company which is a cause of concern.
