Conclusion
Investors who have invested into this IPO can consider ‘Exiting’ from their position at the closing price of $17.06 as on November 15, 2021, given:
Poor topline performance in Q3FY21: The company has recently released its third quarter earnings results, in which it has reported a topline degrowth of 6%. This was mainly because of easing of the stay-at-home initiatives.
Intense Competition: The company is operating in a highly competitive environment, where retaining a loyal consumer base and a decent market share could be challenging.
Range bound price movement: DDI shares have mostly traded in a very narrow range since its IPO. At the current price, it is hovering near its resistance level, indicating that the upside is limited.
