CarTrade Tech Pre-IPO

CarTrade Tech aims to raise around US$300m in its India IPO. The company is backed by Warburg Pincus and Temasek.

CarTrade Tech (CTT) is an online auto portal for sale of cars and two-wheelers in India. It is a multichannel auto platform with coverage and presence across vehicle types and value-added services through its various brands, namely: CarWale, CarTrade, Shriram Automall, BikeWale, CarTrade Exchange, Adroit Auto and AutoBiz.

In 4Q21 (period ending March 21), its platforms had an average of 31.99m unique visitors per month and 814,316 vehicles were listed for auction in FY 2021.

Overall reported revenue grew by 96.9% in FY19 and was up another 22.6% in FY20. While 9M21 revenue points towards a YoY decline in revenue, its user growth has been progressively getting better throughout FY21 showing a strong rebound from COVID-19.

Although, most of the prior growth appears to have come via acquisitions. Were one to adjust for the acquisitions, the underlying growth doesn’t appear to be very strong.
