I recently joined nagarro.... was on bench for almost a month as I was not getting project as per my skill set. Recently got one project as per my skillset and cleared client interview also.
But during the time, I was also looking outside for good opportunity, I have one with same package from a product based organization.
What should I do now ? If I resign , would Nagarro release me early or I will have to serve complete notice period?
Nagarro

Incredibly naive way of asking this question…
With that said - 8x EBITDA
Agree - there are soooo many variables. 8x could be a terrible SWAG or right on the money
Depends on the type of business - scalability, short term threats / alternatives, market size and your share. People dependent businesses have lower multiples, generally
OP yes exactly thats why your question is kinda dumb and completely unanswerable because you provided none of the variables as input lol
Are you the buyer or the seller?
Buyer side
Mentor
Depends on industry. Spam AI into the materials to bump that multiplier up haha.
When in doubt, AI it out!
I agree - but based on the revenue approach - you would have to do your research on the company's industry and the revenue they make and their projected worth. This is an internet search you should do yourself. I say that because you are private about what the company is and are holding back on the details needed for other assessments. But your answer is already in the question - we don't have a rule of thumb for the lack of information. Check out other ways to calculate company value based on the Hartford directions at the end of this message.
One of them should help based on the information you may have available. But 3 to 5 times EBITA should do just fine as a conservative estiment. You can write in the clause if selling or pitching that value can fluctuate based on X Y Z factors, to justify 8x EBITA - need more than swag to get people on board.
Big numbers don't attract. They scare smart buyers/investors away. And if you are here asking and not doing the work. No offense - wait before you make the pitch, something is wrong and it may hinder your sale or pitch. And if we are this tough imagine the room when you pitch - people are being tough becuase they understand you are asking us to do the work for you.
Adjustments and factors should point up. Be clear about what makes asking price go up and what will make it go down. SWOT is good for this. But don't do a normal simple SWOT. I would recommend finding a professional to do that for you. Given the information you provided, I would recomend you let someone else do it, who is not too attached to the company. You have to put it out there and defend it from being taken. Good luck.

It was really a question to see to get a better idea of what I don't know. Asking it in the most naive way possible with a lack of details would typically get responses that can help me get a better view of what I'm unaware of. I thank you for your answer, it helped immensely!
This is the Vontarious Falls guy again, using this bowl for the entire business 😂
Mmm yeh. Maybe. Just gotta hope nobody questions the multiple.
What someone is willing to pay!
Simple yet on the money
Haha
