IPO Lead Managers & Registrar
On the financial performance front, for the last three fiscals, the company has (on a consolidated basis) posted total income/ net profit, of Rs. 16.61 cr. / Rs. 0.84 cr. (FY23), Rs. 24.21 cr. / Rs. 2.65 cr. (FY24), Rs. 28.88 cr. / Rs. 6.55 cr. (FY25). For 9M of FY26 ended on December 31, 2025, it earned a net profit of Rs. 13.31 cr. on a total income of Rs. 64.47 cr. The sudden boost in its bottom lines from FY24, and sharp jump for FY25 and 9M-FY26 is really a surprising one. It appears to an inflated data to pave the way for fancy valuations for the IPO.
For the last two fiscals, the company has reported an average EPS of Rs. 3.28, and an average RoNW of 81.39%. The issue is priced at a P/BV of 4.99 based on its NAV of Rs. 23.26 per share as of December 31, 2025, but its post-IPO NAV data is missing from the offer documents.
If we attribute FY26 super earnings to its post-IPO fully diluted paid-up equity capital, then the asking price is at a P/E of 11.73, and based on FY25 earnings, the P/E stands at 31.78. The issue appears fully priced, based on its bumper earnings for 9M-FY26, which may not be sustained. On other parameters it is aggressively priced issue.
For the reported periods, the company has posted PAT margins of 5.09% (FY23), 11.02% (FY24), 23.16% (FY25), 16.58% (9M-FY26), and RoCE margins of 71.25%, 70.70%, 70.26%, 51.33%, respectively, for referred periods. The outperforming margins and higher debt equity ratio compared to its listed peers raises concern over its sustainability going forward.
All amounts in Indian Rupees crores
The company has not paid any dividends for the reported periods of the offer document. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy, based on its financial performance and future prospects.
Comparison with Listed Peers
As per the offer document, the company has shown AION-Tech Solutions, and Latent View Analytics, as its listed peers. They are currently trading at a P/E of NA and 33.7 (as of May 29, 2026). They are not truly comparable on an apple-to-apple basis. This compare appears as an eyewash.
Merchant Banker's Track Record
This is the 10th mandate from Choice Capital Advisors in the last four fiscals (including the ongoing one). Out of the last 9 listings, all listed with a premium ranging from 0.01% to 90.00% on the listing date.
Conclusion
GAL is engaged in providing technology-driven enterprise performance and analytics solutions. While it posted growth in its top and bottom lines for the reported periods, the quantum jump marked in bottom lines raise eyebrows. It is operating in a highly competitive and fragmented segments. Based on its recent financial data, the issue appears aggressively priced. Only well-informed/cash surplus/risk seekers may park moderate funds for medium term.
