About Watrana Rentals
Watrana Rentals Ltd. rents out material handling equipment and aerial work platforms to industrial customers across India. Its fleet covers diesel, battery and gas forklifts, reach trucks, electric stackers, pallet trucks, order pickers, towing trucks and speciality attachments such as paper-roll clamps, bale clamps and side shifters. Customers rent these machines instead of buying them, which lets a factory or warehouse add capacity without a large capital outlay. The company also sells new and used equipment and the batteries that power it, so a client can rent first and buy later. As of June 30, 2026, it owned 2,646 material handling units and 33 aerial work platforms, and held a further five units and two platforms on rent from third-party suppliers. It employed 3,883 people on that date, spread across operations, procurement, stores, safety, service, finance and administration. The company was incorporated in 2019 and runs from Derawal Nagar in North West Delhi. It serves the automotive, tyre, beverage, glass, paper, logistics and warehouse sectors.

Financial highlights
The last three fiscal years as the offer document states them. Reading across a row shows whether the figure has grown, which is why the years run left to right.
| Metric (₹ crore) | Mar 2024 | Mar 2025 | Mar 2026 | Jun 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assets | 147.69 | 201.82 | 287.07 | 301.71 |
| Total Income | 130.23 | 179.66 | 211.69 | 53.62 |
| Profit After Tax | 18.05 | 24.43 | 29.16 | 7.68 |
| EBITDA | 37.98 | 51.77 | 65.01 | 18.13 |
| NET Worth | 31.96 | 56.39 | 85.55 | 93.24 |
| Reserves and Surplus | 31.95 | 46.38 | 75.54 | 83.23 |
| Total Borrowing | 93.12 | 110.54 | 164.08 | 164.72 |
Figures are in ₹ crore and reproduced from the offer document, covering Mar 2024 to Jun 2026. A dash means the document does not state that figure for that period. A fiscal year ending March is labelled by its closing month, and where the document states a figure on a different basis the label here follows the document rather than normalising it.
Key ratios
Valuation and return ratios calculated from the issuer's financials. These are the figures the issue price is usually judged against, and the offer document carries the working behind each one.
| Ratio | Value | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| Earnings per share | ₹25.49 | Profit after tax divided by the number of shares. |
| P/E at the cap price | 9.61x | Issue price divided by earnings per share. Lower is cheaper, but only against the same industry. |
| P/E after the issue | 13.03x | The same ratio recalculated on the larger post-issue share count. |
| Price to book | 2.87x | Issue price against net assets per share. |
| Net asset value per share | ₹85.47 | What the company owns, less what it owes, per share. |
| Return on equity | 41.08% | Profit earned on shareholders’ money. |
| Return on capital employed | 19.06% | Profit earned on all the capital in the business, including debt. |
| Return on net worth | 29.13% | The offer document’s own name for return on shareholders’ funds. |
| Debt to equity | 2.91x | Borrowings against shareholders’ funds. Higher means more leverage. |
| Profit margin | 13.80% | Profit after tax as a share of income. |
| Operating margin | 30.76% | Operating profit as a share of income, before interest, tax and depreciation. |
| Market capitalisation | ₹400.34 Cr | Value of the company at the issue price. |
Ratios are stated as published. A ratio that is absent here was not stated in the document, and is not the same as a ratio of zero.

Who gets what share
SEBI fixes how much of a book-built issue each investor category can be allotted. This is the split for this issue as stated in the offer document.

| Non-institutional (bids up to ₹10 lakh) | 5.01% | ₹5.70 Cr |
Percentages are reproduced as text from the offer document. A dash means the document does not state an amount for that category. Categories are labelled using the document's own terms, which differ slightly between issues.
Questions people ask
One lot is 600 shares. The price band is ₹232.00 to ₹245.00, and the block is calculated at the top of it, ₹245.00. That comes to ₹1,47,000.00 held in your bank account until the allotment is finalised. If you are not allotted, the block is released and the money never leaves your account.
Bidding runs from 19 November 2026 to 23 November 2026. Applications can be revised or withdrawn while bidding is open. Once it closes, the registrar finalises the basis of allotment the next working day and shares are credited the day after.
The most recent recorded premium is ₹22.00 per share, against ₹15.00 when recording began on 13 November 2026. The movement across those days says more than either number on its own.
Retail applications run from 1 lot to 1 lots. The retail category caps an application at ₹2,00,000, so the upper limit is whichever comes first: the lot ceiling or the value ceiling.
