Hyundai IPO decoded in simple words :Business case study
Hi everybody,
Hyundai is one of the most iconic companies to enter the Indian markets!! And it is so hard to believe that, a south korean brand which was once a difficult name to even pronounce, the same brand today is about to launch the biggest IPO in the History of India!!!
In 1996, when Hyundai entered the Indian market, Maruti was the most dominating player with a 60% market share! And amongst the middle class, maruti was almost a monopoly. But even then Hyundai came in with Santro, i10, i20 and creta and put a dent in the Indian automobile sector to an extent where today it is the second largest automarket in country with a profit of 4653 crores!!
And, if you look at the profitability, Hyundai is wayyy ahead of maruti, in Fy23, while Hyundai made a profit of 65,355 Rs per vehicle, Maruti made Rs. 40,939Rs per vehicle!! So after 28 years of getting a very strong hold of the Indian market, Hyundai plans to raise 25,000 crores with its IPO!! Sounds fantastic right?? But you know what?? There are some hidden risks that Hyundai faces which may ruin all the progress that they have made in the Indian market!! All of this is mentioned in detail in this 436 page DRHP paper that Hyundai filed with SEBI!!! So we went through all this data so that you can sit back and consume the most important bits of this 400 page document as easily as watching a movie!!!
So in this episode today, let’s dive in to understand
How did a South Korean company break into the Indian automobile market leaving the tatas and mahindra’s behind?
In Spite of being a foreign company, How did Hyundai achieve such high profitability and outpace a mammoth like Maruti in India?
And most importantly, What are the hidden risks that Hyundai faces in India that can topple its growth??
