About Emmvee Photovoltaic IPO:

Emmvee Photovoltaic launched its IPO earlier this month to raise Rs 2,900 crore from the primary market through a fresh issue of shares worth Rs 2,143.9 crore and an offer for sale of Rs 756.1 crore by promoters Manjunatha Donthi Venkatarathnaiah and Shubha Manjunatha. The price band has been set at Rs 206-217 per share.

Investors could bid for a minimum of 69 shares, requiring an investment of Rs 14,973 at the upper price band, and in multiples thereafter.

Here's what analysts say:

Angel One had noted the company’s strong financial performance. It valued the issue at 20x FY26 annualised earnings and about 41x FY25 earnings, noting that the valuation is at a marginal discount to larger peers. Emmvee’s growth prospects justify a 'Subscribe' rating for long-term investors, it said. However, the brokerage cautioned that customer concentration (top 10 clients contributing nearly 94 percent of revenue) and dependence on imported raw materials remain key risks.

Anand Rathi valued Emmvee Photovoltaic Power as India’s second-largest pure-play integrated solar PV module and cell manufacturer, known for reliable products and advanced technology. It highlighted the company’s early lead in adopting high-efficiency TOPCon cells, integrated operations supporting productivity and sustainability, and strong client relationships that underpin a growing order book. At the upper price band, the issue is valued at a P/E of 40.7x on FY25 earnings, with a post-issue market cap of Rs 15,024 crore. The brokerage recommended a “Subscribe - Long Term” rating.

HDFC Securities cited Emmvee's position as India’s second-largest pure-play integrated manufacturer of solar photovoltaic modules and cells, with current installed capacities of 7.8 GW (modules) and 2.94 GW (cells). The brokerage noted that the company’s early adoption of high-efficiency tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) technology, partnership with Germany’s Fraunhofer ISE for R&D, and rapid scale-up from 0.5 GW in 2022 to current levels give it a technological edge. It also pointed to a substantial order book of 5.36 GW as of June 2025 and plans to expand total capacity to 16.3 GW by FY28, positioning it well to capture domestic and export opportunities amid India’s renewable energy transition.
