Another article, slightly dated, in ConstructionWeek India on DBL date 4th Nov2015........
"......At a time when Make in India campaign is being much talked about, Suryavanshi believes that it can be a success in the long term only when Indian companies will focus on innovation and sustainability. He is keen that Indian companies take a cue from global counterparts and focus on safety too. For him, an issue that causes delay and arbitration but hardly gets enough mention is issuance of inaccurate Detailed Project Reports (DPR) before tendering — a consequence of being designed by incompetent consultants. “The bidding process is archaic and should be overhauled. The government shouldn’t build public infrastructure using lowest bidder criteria alone. It should look at those who can build best quality infrastructure using a points system that evaluates track record of the company, history of timely completion, plant & equipment capabilities, availability of skilled labour, etc.†Secondly, he adds, the government should make all the necessary clearances available for the developer at the start of the project. Also qualification criteria should be tweaked for players with expertise in one infrastructure asset class (eg, bridges) to be able to bid for another asset class (eg, canals) even if they do not have prior experience in that specific asset class...."

SINCE i have made profit in previous IPO i will apply like i did in Parag milk
Any One got information regarding, RBL(RATNAKAR BANK LTD) IPO, much awaited by these Forum also. In 13-June-16 Promoters Interview, they have informed media within two months IPO, but till date no such information in any media or website, but Advertisements in Business Channel is there.
That''s a shrewd observation. They are surprisingly big & have clearly invested a lot in backward integration. Currently they are benefiting from low RM prices but this backward integration in sand manufacturing, stone griding etc will help if RM prices were to rise.
You’re neither right nor wrong because other people agree with you. You’re right because your facts are right and your reasoning is right—and that’s the only thing that makes you right. And if your facts and reasoning are right, you don’t have to worry about anybody else. Warren Buffett
Category A. Apply for IPO and Hold the Allotment for Long Term, fundamental and informed decision Category B. Apply for IPO and Sell it on listing day, book profit or loss, short term informed gamble Category C. Apply for IPO and Sell it in Grey Market, if reasonable Kostak rate is available. I would be satisfied for Rs. 400 also. Get Fixed and Secured return on your short term investment. Category D. Avoid. Dont apply. I consider this option, only If not able to sell application in Grey Market. Otherwise, no point leaving any IPO.

1) Low margin: Though EBITDA margin is high @20-21%, EBIT margin is at lower level due to higher depreciation resulting from higher fixed assets as the company owns almost all of its equipments. 2) Weak Balance Sheet: It has higher debtor days and inventory days, resulting in stretched balance sheet. 3) Leverage: Current D/E is 2.3x. It will raise Rs 400cr from fresh equity out of which Rs 200cr would be used to pare debt resulting in better D/E of 1.45x. However, the company will have to infuse Rs 600cr in its BOT projects in next 3 years, again increasing D/E. 4) Politically exposed: The promoter of the company is close to BJP government in MP. His name has also cropped-up in Vyapam case. This makes it politically exposed.
