SME IPO BOOM : Opportunity or Hype

Selectivity beats speed, lasting wealth comes from owning the right businesses, not the most popular ones.
Key insights
- SME IPOs have surged, with several becoming multibaggers in record time.
- Behind the excitement: how many are sustainable wealth creators?
- Care PMS has seen market cycles in which hype overrides fundamentals.
- Our approach evaluates business model, governance, balance-sheet strength and scalability, beyond the listing buzz.
- Not every SME is a hidden gem, but some may become tomorrow’s leaders; success depends on disciplined research and resisting herd behaviour.
- We filter for the few opportunities that fit our long-term compounding strategy rather than chasing every one.
