Analysts favour Lalithaa Jewellery IPO over Horizon on valuation and earnings visibility

Analysts prefer Lalithaa Jewellery Mart’s IPO over Horizon Industrial Parks, citing its established 61-store jewellery franchise, lower valuation and earnings visibility. Key risks include gold-price-linked profits, negative operating cash flow, Tamil Nadu concentration and a ₹1,066-crore GST demand.
