The Tempsens Instruments share price is around ₹535 on the NSE (latest available quote), about 78% above its IPO price of ₹300 but roughly 16% below its listing-day price of ₹634. The Udaipur-based maker of industrial temperature sensors, heaters and specialised cables listed after a ₹650 crore IPO that was subscribed 184 times and opened with a 111% premium, the biggest listing gain of the year so far. Since then the stock has cooled sharply and tested ₹486 earlier this month. This guide covers the latest NSE snapshot, recent sessions, the IPO and its final GMP, business model, yearly financials, valuation, peers, shareholding, key price levels and a balanced answer to the question most readers ask: should you buy Tempsens Instruments now?

Tempsens Instruments IPO: Subscription, GMP and Listing Recap

Tempsens Instruments Business Overview

Tempsens, founded in 1987, is India’s largest manufacturer of contact and non-contact temperature sensors by revenue, with about 10.5% of the overall sensor market and about 21.3% of non-contact sensors in FY26.

Segment What it sells
Temperature sensing Thermocouples, RTDs, infrared pyrometers, online thermal imagers, furnace monitoring cameras
Electrical heating Immersion, process, skid, cartridge, band, tubular and flexible heaters
Specialised cables Control and power cables, instrumentation cables, thermocouple and RTD cables, nickel-alloy conductors
Business Mix (FY26) Share of Revenue
Projects / OEM orders 67.55%
Replacement (MRO) orders 32.45%
Metal and petrochemical industries 41.13%
Customers buying across multiple segments About 60%
Overseas revenue About 28% (₹126 crore, up from ₹59 crore in FY24)
Top 10 customers 18.59%

Sensors used in steel plants, furnaces and chemical units wear out and are usually replaced every 12 to 24 months, which gives the company a repeat-revenue base on top of project orders. The company serves more than 3,800 customers.

Tempsens Instruments Yearly Financials (FY24 to FY26)

Year Revenue from Operations (₹ Cr) EBITDA Margin Net Profit (₹ Cr)
FY24 (Mar 2024) 274.81 21.98% 40.92
FY25 (Mar 2025) 378.53 25.45% 62.56
FY26 (Mar 2026) 444.88 24.83% 71.07
Growth snapshot Figure
Revenue CAGR (FY24–FY26) 27.2%
EBITDA CAGR (FY24–FY26) 36.1%
Net profit CAGR (FY24–FY26) 31.8%
Revenue growth FY25 / FY26 +37.7% / +17.5%
FY26 EBITDA ₹113.17 crore
FY26 PAT margin 15.6%
FY26 total income ₹455.86 crore
FY26 EPS (diluted) ₹8.33

Profits have grown faster than revenue over two years, but growth slowed noticeably in FY26 and margins slipped slightly as the company spent more on people, research and new business lines. The first results as a listed company, for the half year to September, are due by mid-November under market rules and will show whether growth is picking up again.

Tempsens Instruments Valuation and Key Ratios

Ratio Value
Stock P/E (TTM) About 71 (about 64 on FY26 diluted EPS of ₹8.33)
P/E at IPO price of ₹300 About 36
Price to book Approx. 7.6x
Price to sales Approx. 10x
ROE (FY26) 13.5%
ROCE (FY26) 21.6%
Debt to equity 0.15
Dividend yield 0.06%
Shares outstanding Approx. 8.38 crore

Even after the fall from ₹634, the stock trades at roughly double the P/E at which the IPO was priced. A return on equity of 13.5% does not obviously justify 7 to 8 times book value, so the price still assumes that growth will pick up again and margins will stay above 24%.

Tempsens Instruments vs Peers

There is no listed Indian company that matches all three of Tempsens’ businesses, so comparisons are partial.

Company EBITDA Margin (FY26) Comment
Tempsens Instruments 24.8% Sensors, heaters and cables; export share of about 28%
Thermo Cables About 16.7% Specialised cables
Wika India About 10.2% Pressure and temperature instruments

Tempsens earns clearly higher margins than the closest listed names, which supports a premium valuation. The flip side is that it is much smaller and more dependent on project orders from metal and petrochemical customers.

Tempsens Instruments Shareholding Pattern

Category Before IPO After IPO
Promoter and promoter group 80.51% 65.67%
Public and others 19.49% 34.33%

The promoters are Virendra Prakash Rathi, Vinay Rathi and Pratap Singh Talesara. Almost all of the ₹555 crore offer for sale (1.85 crore shares, about 22% of the company) came from selling shareholders, so most of the money raised went to them and not to the company. The fresh issue of ₹95 crore is meant for debt repayment, manufacturing expansion and general purposes.

Lock-ins matter here. Half of the anchor shares came out of lock-in in September. The rest, about 32 lakh shares or roughly 4% of the company, become free to sell in late November, which can add selling pressure around that time.

Tempsens Instruments Returns and Price Range

Comparison Approx. Return
Since IPO price of ₹300 +78%
Since listing price of ₹634 -16%
From all-time high of ₹634.85 -16%
From all-time low of ₹486 +10%

Tempsens Instruments Technicals: Key Price Levels

The stock is too new for 50-day or 200-day moving averages to be meaningful, so the levels below come from actual price action. They are reference points, not forecasts.

Level Price (₹) Why it matters
Resistance 3 634.85 Listing-day high and all-time high
Resistance 2 589.70 Mid-month high
Resistance 1 555–561 Recent breakdown zone
Current price 534.70 –
Support 1 530 Latest day low
Support 2 515 Early-month rebound close
Support 3 486 All-time low

A close below ₹486 would put the stock in uncharted territory below its post-listing range, while a recovery above ₹590 would suggest that the post-listing correction is over.

What to Watch Next

  • First half-year results as a listed company: revenue growth versus the 17.5% seen in FY26, and whether the EBITDA margin holds near 25%.
  • Order book and project timing: two-thirds of revenue comes from projects and OEM orders, so delays in customer capital spending show up quickly.
  • Anchor lock-in expiry in late November: a possible source of supply in the market.
  • Export growth: overseas sales more than doubled in two years, and the next leg depends on new regions and products.
  • Metal and petrochemical cycles: these two industries account for about 41% of revenue.
  • Debt repayment and capacity expansion: how quickly the fresh-issue money turns into higher output.

Should You Buy Tempsens Instruments Share Now?

No article can tell you what is right for your portfolio, so here is the evidence on both sides. This is not investment advice.

Points in Favour Points of Caution
Largest Indian maker of temperature sensors, with a 21% share of non-contact sensors P/E of about 64–71 is high for a business growing 17%
Revenue CAGR of 27% and profit CAGR of 32% over two years Revenue growth slowed from 38% to 17.5% in FY26
EBITDA margin near 25%, far above listed peers About two-thirds of revenue is project and OEM driven, which is lumpy
ROCE of 21.6% and low debt (D/E 0.15) ROE of 13.5% is modest for the price paid
Replacement demand (about 32% of revenue) adds recurring income Metal and petrochemical industries make up about 41% of revenue
Exports have more than doubled in two years Most of the IPO was a sale by existing shareholders, not fresh capital
Strong institutional demand at IPO (QIB demand over 300x) Remaining anchor lock-in ends in late November
Stock is already 16% off its high Shares are volatile, with 4–5% daily moves and a 52% gap between the IPO price and the high

How different investors may look at it:

Investor Type Possible View
IPO allottee with a gain Still holds a profit of about 78% over the issue price, and may decide on a target based on the ₹590 and ₹634 levels
Long-term quality investor May like the margins and market position, but may want a lower valuation or proof of growth first
Value-oriented Will find 7.6 times book value and a P/E near 70 hard to justify
Short-term trader Will watch the ₹530 and ₹486 supports, the ₹590 resistance and the November lock-in expiry

The honest summary: Tempsens is a well-run, high-margin niche manufacturer with a leading market position, but the stock is priced for strong growth that FY26 did not quite deliver. The first listed-company results will be the real test. Anyone considering it should decide their time horizon, position size and risk limit first, and speak to a SEBI-registered advisor.

Tempsens Instruments Stock Summary: Where It Stands Today

The stock is near ₹535, about 78% above its ₹300 IPO price, about 16% below its listing-day high of ₹634.85 and about 10% above its all-time low of ₹486. The business is profitable, lightly indebted and market-leading, yet growth is slowing, a large lock-in expiry is approaching and valuation is still rich.
