Most of the low quality IPOs that have listed in the Indian market recently, have fallen on the day of the listing itself.<\/a>Jaypee Infratech which is supposed to be a mix of a infrastructure and real estate play is down 10% on the listing day despite listing itself at the lower end of the book building band.Tarapur Transformers is already down 30% and even a high quality offering SJVN which was supposed to do well and was priced conservatively has gone down by 4-5% .<\/p>\n

Jaypee Infratech had very little interest despite hiring 9 investment banks to sell the issue <\/a>. This proves that you can hire as many salesman as you like but if your product is bad it will ultimately fall in the market . How some talking heads on CNBC\u00a0 were recommending this Company is beyond me. Jaypee Infratech belongs to the opaque real estate sector which is difficult if not impossble to value from publicly listed information.This is what I wrote some time ago in one of my articles about investing in the real estate sector in India<\/p>\n

1) I have not found a single brokerage report from the \u201csophisticated\u201d banks that give any decent way to value these companies . Most of them use NAVs which is a highly subjective number.I am 100% sure that none of the analysts would go out to the field to verify the value of the land that the company possesses.Standard metrics like P\/E,P\/B and P\/S don\u2019t seem to work here<\/p>\n

2) Most of the companies are routinely raided by the tax and excise departments. Emaar,HDIL,Orbit and the list goes on an on . Not a big wonder since most of the deals in the real estate market are rumored to be done with black money.Now a foreign fund IREO <\/a>joins the list .<\/p>\n

3) Most companies have come out with IPOs in the last 3-4 years so don\u2019t have a long operating history.Organized real estate is a recent phenomenon and most people will dispute that\u00a0 \u201corganized \u201d real estate is any better than the \u201cunorganized\u201d one. Real estate companies have such a bad service record and routinely break both the spirit and letter of the contract which is anyway loaded in favor of the companies.<\/p>\n

4) Management seems confused as well.Unitech entered wireless and other segments,DLF entered into hotels,mall,multiplexes ,townships . Now both these companies want to spin off these entities to focus on real estate. With these 2 companies supposed to be the best , i wonder at the quality of the smaller ones.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
