Sambhv Steel Tubes stands out as one of India’s major ERW steel pipe and structural tube manufacturers, boasting significant installed capacity as of March 31, 2024. The company’s products are widely used in infrastructure, construction and the oil and gas sector. Its strong manufacturing base and established market presence position it well to capitalize on rising demand for steel tubes and pipes, driven by government infrastructure programs and increased investments in core sectors.
According to a Crisil report, domestic demand for steel pipes and tubes has grown at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5-6% from 8.8 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) in FY19 to 12.5-13.5 MTPA in FY25. This growth has been supported by government initiatives to boost urban infrastructure and investments in oil and gas. Looking ahead, the report projects domestic steel pipe demand to rise further to 18.5-20.5 MTPA by FY29, with an accelerated CAGR of 8-9% between FY25 and FY29, indicating a robust outlook for manufacturers like Sambhv Steel Tubes.
Sambhv Steel Tubes has demonstrated strong financial growth in recent years. The company’s revenue increased from ₹939 crore in FY23 to ₹1,289 crore in FY24, while profit after tax rose from ₹60.4 crore to ₹82.4 crore over the same period. This consistent performance underscores the company’s operational efficiency and ability to scale in a competitive market. The improved financials, coupled with the planned debt reduction from IPO proceeds, are expected to enhance the company’s profitability and return ratios going forward.
Nuvama Wealth Management Ltd and Motilal Oswal Investment Advisors Ltd are the book-running lead managers for the issue. The allotment of shares is expected to be finalized by June 30, with listing scheduled on both the BSE and NSE on July 2, 2025.
