TEIL is engaged in providing services across O&M, AMC, E&C, projects for gas. The company posted growth in its top and bottom lines for the reported periods. The company operates in a highly competitive and fragmented segment. Sustainability of its profit margins remains major concern. Small paid-up equity capital post-IPO indicates longer gestation for migration. The merchant banker has a poor track record. Investors can avoid this pricey and dicey IPO.
