Thanks for this Kushal,
Very nice analysis.

Who are BIGBLOC’s main competitors?

That sounds like a well-defined strategy. Using technical charts for entry and having a clear exit point can help maintain discipline. Chart Ink screeners are a good tool for identifying potential stocks. Have you found any particular technical indicators or patterns to be more reliable for your entries?
There seems to be lot of infighting going in the family.
Anyone tracking it.

Since the Govt has already declared its intention of OFS in Mazgaon dock, the stock is likely to be under pressure until OFS is executed, since investors are likely to wait until OFS to buy in order to get a better price if possible.
And so the wide gap in valuation between its peers may continue.
But once the OFS is executed, it may try to catch up at a rapid rate l.
When would be the OFS of Mazgaon dock ,?
Now since a hint has been given, it could be any day all of a sudden depending upon market conditions.
However, there is a hitch here!
Could it be before budget or post budget ?
it is difficult to say because the Govt has decided not to take a target of “Disinvestment” ,. They would call it capital receipt and this change in nomenclature is supposed to be officially declared in budget session.
However , if the Govt may also carry out OFS before budget , they may add to capital receipts for 2024-25.
I think numbers aren’t going to remain the same, they will only improve as there was a demand slowdown due to elections.
Some KTAs from mgmt meeting
Reason for demerger of Ddev plastiks from Kkalpana Industries was to focus on compounds business considering industry tailwinds, earlier due to company structure company had lost a major contract from mitsui who wanted to setup a JV with Ddev for manufacturing compounds
cable and wires companies have been now increasingly cautious about their supply chain post covid and are shifting from imports to domestic procurement
Company does not cater to house wires and telecom wires due to unfavourable operating economics ( Current capacity is 30000 tons as compared to market demand of 8L tonnes)
Current TAM is 14-16% in value terms of the total cables and wires industry sales value
Domestic and export mix to remain the same as both markets are growing at the same pace
Shakun polymers is only in the business of semiconductor and HFFR cables and does not have the complete product portfolio such as insulations
HFFR cables currently the capacity 20000 tons in the industry as compared to total pvc market of 8-9 lakh tons, company expects the segment to grow to 150000 tons and company is targeting a 50% market share
HFFR cable acceptance is mainly led by government regulation as despite better quality, the cost of HFFR wires is 10-12% higher. Company expects over the next few years solar cables,
Capex - Initial capex is to set up a green field capacity at both the east and west coast, with around 170 crs of investment, further investment of 130 crs for HFFR and XPLE capacity , current capex per ton - Rs 30000 (i.e 30 cr per 10000 ton), 120000 is the total peak capacity at these facilities.
Decrease in trade payables is mainly due to domestic PVC sourcing which has lower trade payable days.
Engineered plastics is a difficult business to crack because generally the consumer durables companies have there own approved set of vendors or mainly import
Kkalpana and Ddev synergy - Mixed PVC compounds using the recycling ability of Kkalpana is something which the company is thinking, as in packaging there is a provision for use of mixed compounds, company is working with Prysmian for developing a mixed compound using virgin PVC compound
Our defence Shipping companies have come a long way not only to assist to become self reliant India - Atma nirbhar Bharat, but also participating in generating revenues from export market.
Currently, India has less than one percent share of the global shipbuilding market, which is largely dominated by China, South Korea, and Japan. Replacement of aging fleets is a top concern for most shipowners, specifically in Europe which is implementing some of the toughest maritime environmental regulations. The growing orders from European shipowners are however helping India as it vies for a top position in the industry.
Earlier, Mazgaon dock and Cochin shipyards, Garden reach had signed master service agreement with US Navy.
While Defence shipping companies are taking the lead in exports, others are not lagging behind…HAL, BEL, Bharat dynamics , Midhani , Solar industries , L&T , Bharat forge and many others including ancillaries.
Excellent discussion on Insurance which everyone must listen to, whether you have or don’t have health insurance. The title is a bit negative and misleading, but in reality, it’s actually a very insightful talk and an even better Q & A at the end. Will be worth your time.
