Shyam Metalics and Energy has reported 6.56 per cent CAGR in its revenues from fiscal 2018 to 2020. “Owing to rising metal prices, the metal stocks are enjoying a sharp edge in the market. If the issue is priced reasonably it should garner a strong response from investors,” Abhay Doshi, Founder, UnlistedArena.com, dealing in Pre-IPO & Unlisted Shares, told Financial Express Online.
