Reservation is split 35% for retail, 50% for QIB, and 15% for NII/HNI.

Vans Electroengineerings IPO: Lot Size

This is worth flagging upfront: the minimum application here is ₹2,83,200 — retail investors have both a minimum and maximum cap at 2 lots, and there is no lower entry point below this amount. That is a substantially higher ticket size than most SME IPOs, where the retail minimum is usually in the ₹1.4–2.5 lakh range.

About Vans Electroengineerings

Incorporated in February 2022, Vans Electroengineerings manufactures components used in railway electrification, metro systems, and renewable energy projects.

Its main customers are Indian Railways and railway contractors, and its products are approved by RDSO (Research Designs and Standards Organisation), with some products also holding "Approved Vendor" status from CORE (Central Organisation for Railway Electrification). The company's registered office and manufacturing facility are both in Salem, Tamil Nadu.

Financial Performance

This is a genuinely steep growth curve, though it needs context. The company was incorporated in February 2022 and posted almost no profit in FY24 (₹0.02 crore, effectively break-even). Revenue then jumped roughly 5x in FY25 and grew a further 68% in FY26, with PAT up more than 3x in FY26 alone. This kind of trajectory from a very small base is common for a young company scaling up early railway/metro contracts, but it also means there's only one full year of meaningful profitability (FY26) to judge the business on — worth reading the RHP's order book and revenue-recognition notes closely before assuming this growth rate is repeatable.

Key Valuation Metrics (FY2026)

Margins here are strong — a 31.63% EBITDA margin and 23.61% PAT margin are well above what's typical for component manufacturing. That said, ROE (83.27%) and RoNW (58.79%) are reported at noticeably different levels in the source data, and the NAV of ₹11.46 sits well below the EPS of ₹6.74 relative to typical ratios — these figures are as disclosed, but they're worth cross-checking against the final RHP's per-share calculations before relying on them for a precise valuation read, since post-IPO NAV and the exact capital base can shift these ratios meaningfully.

Peer Comparison

According to the offer document, there are no listed peer companies directly comparable to Vans Electroengineerings' specific railway electrification components business, leaving no straightforward valuation benchmark for prospective investors.
