Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP — Research at Mehta Equities, confidently justifies the positive debut of Awfis Space Solutions shares, stating, “The healthy listing is a testament to the company’s success, ranking no 1 among the top 5 benchmarked players in India in the flexible workspace segment.

Awfis Space Solutions share price outlook
Advising long-term investors to hold the scrip, VLA Ambala, Co-founder of Stock Market Today, said, “While the company’s net profit is negative and total borrowing has grown by 4x between 2021 and 2023, its revenue surged by 103% and PAT rose by 18.4% between FY2022-23.”
“The company aims to provide well-suited solutions tailored to meet the needs of its diverse clientele, which spans different demographics, seat cohorts, and industry sectors. Their suite of flexible workspace solutions encompasses space solutions such as Awfis Transform and Awfis Care. Given its unique product profile and promising growth prospects, the company presents an attractive proposition. The company’s capital expenditure per seat was around Rs. 50,000 in FY22 and FY23, and the first nine months ended December 31, 2023. In comparison, the average capital expenditure per seat in 2023 by top operators in India typically ranged between Rs. 80,000 and Rs. 200,000.
“Awfis Space Solutions has demonstrated a robust Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) of 25.3% in FY23. Despite steady growth in its top line, the company has managed to reduce its losses. This positive trend indicates the company’s potential for future profitability. We therefore recommend that investors who have received allotment hold shares from a long-term perspective,” advised Shreyansh V Shah, Research Analyst at StoxBox.
