The investment strategies are mostly long-term and are based on an analysis of investment fundamentals. As of the date of filing this offer document, it had just 8 employees on its payroll. 

ISSUE DETAILS:
The company is coming out with a Rights Issue (RI) of 349591421 equity share of Re. 1 each at par value to mobilize Rs. 34.96 cr. The RI is opening for subscription on May 15, 2024, and will close on May 24, 2024. The company is offering RI in the ratio of 50 for 19 shares to its eligible stakeholders as of the record date of May 04, 2024. The full amount is to be paid on application for the number of shares applied. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE and MSEI. The company is spending Rs. 1.50 cr. for this RI process, and from the net proceeds, it will utilize Rs. 3.50 cr. for purchase of corporate offices in Mumbai and Kolkata, Rs. 6.00 cr. for investment in Salcete Brewing Ltd., Rs. 17.00 cr. for purchase of tradable and strategic, securities and stock, and Rs. 6.96 cr. for general corporate purposes.

The issue is self-managed by the company itself and Purva Sharegistry (I) Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. 

Post-RI, company's current paid-up capital of Rs. 13.28 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 48.24 cr. Based on the RI pricing, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 48.24 cr. There is garble in The Issue table where the company is showing pre and post RI same paid-up capital.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
On the financial performance front, for the last two fiscals, the company has posted a total income of Rs. 0.83 cr. / Rs. 0.24 cr. (FY22), and Rs. 0.73 cr. / Rs. 0.27 cr. (FY23). For 9M of FY24 ended on December 31, 2023, it earned a net profit of Rs. 0.21cr. on a total income of Rs. 0.67 cr. Thus while company's top line is just around Rs. 0.90 cr. it is asking for a funding of Rs. 34.96 cr. with at par RI. 

DIVIDEND POLICY:
The company has not declared any dividends for the reported periods of the offer document. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy post listings of RI shares based on its financial performance and future prospects. 

SCRIP PERFORMANCE: BASED ON BSE WEBSITE DATA: SCRIP CODE: 535730 (FV Re. 1).
The scrip last closed on cum-right basis at Rs. 1.43 on May 02, 2024, and opened on an ex-right basis at Rs. 1.17 on May 03, 2024. Since then, it has marked a high/low of Rs. 1.34 / Rs. 1.17. The scrip last closed at Rs. 1.30 as of May 14, 2024. For the last 52 weeks' it has posted a high/low of Rs. 1.63 / Rs. 0.74.  The counter is currently under GSM: Stage 0 / ASM LT: Stage 1.

The promoters' holding has been constant at 0.45% for the last three quarters ended with March 31, 2024. The counter is well managed above the par value to tempt investors. 


Conclusion / Investment Strategy

Though the RI is at par value, company’s financial performance remained on a minuscule level for the reported periods with inconsistency. Post-RI its equity will be nearly three and half fold which may face servicing issue. This is a “High Risk/No Return” bet. There is no harm in skipping this issue.

Reviewer recommends Avoid to the issue.
