What could break the thesis?
The company remains relatively healthy with INR 35 Cr long-term and INR 25 Cr short-term debt against cash reserves of INR 40-55 Cr. However, a massive INR 350-400 Cr capex plan for doubling capacity will require new debt, though management claims no equity dilution. (1 intensifying)
“planned an estimated capex of INR350 crores for doubling your capacity... No. Equity dilution is not at all coming... Majorly from the internal accruals or maybe by the debt.”
