MIDHANI is a niche and one of its kind titanium and super alloy maker and counts on who’s who of industry as its clients. It supplies to defence companies like HAL, Bharat Dynamics and BEL, to ISRO and also companies like BHEL etc.
I believe considering the mad rush of IPO’s in the last fortnight of March it would make sense to look at this company post listing in April when madness in global markets has cooled off.
