Macpower CNC Machines: Manufacturing a Strong Growth? (22-09-2024)
Very informative thread. Happened to look at Crisil report on BFW and ICRA report Ace Designers. BFW and Jyoti have significant revenue from Defense, exports and VMC, HMC.
Macpower has just started entering those segments. Macpower sells in very crowded entry level machines. But management has delivered in last 10 years and has met expectations. But valuation of some of these microcaps is something I haven’t seen earlier. Lot of optimism and interest on some of these. The sense I get from general reading about sector is that there is lot of visibility on sectoral growth.

Thanks!

This is great. Did you create this manually? Or did you use some kind of tool to automate this?
RIL: Is the ‘Reliance” on ‘Jio’ Justified? (22-09-2024)
OFS rather than demerger is my biggest worry as well. The more I think about it, it makes sense for MA to come up with IPO (via OFS). Because that way he can keep control of Retail and Jio. In case of demerger, he would own only 33% of the companies.

Inflation of bills by hospitals / Over charging is an industry wide problem. However, company is upto the task and they are extremely vigilant about these malpractices. Company also keeps educating its customers about the treatment options available in various areas / cities / towns and try and divert customers away from hospitals that have a tendency to over-charge
Company also invests a lot a wellness awareness and preventive checkups – for its customers to keep them healthier which helps in the long run – obviously
General Insurers council of India ( representing the General Insurance industry ) has started making efforts to bring various Insurers on board and negotiate better deals with Hospitals. The whole thing is in nascent stages. Likely to fructify in medium term

Company’s retail business grew by 15.5 pc – that comprises of 7.5 pc volume growth and 8 pc value growth ( price hikes )
The management believes they have a deep customer connect and trust. This should help them cross-sell other protection plans like Life Insurance, Term Insurance etc. They are open to acquiring a composite Insurance license. Have also appointed BCG to study and identify potential profit pools for the company
Company’s loss ratio is higher by 2.2 pc vs Q1 FY 24. This has been an industry wide phenomenon in Q1. The fever + Infections season did start a little early in Q1. Hence the company expects it to end also a little earlier in Q2 – bringing down the loss ratio in Q2 ( let’s see if that happens !!! )
10 pc of company’s GWP in Q1 has come from porting-in. ( ie porting customers from other companies to their company ). Company is keen to go aggressively towards in-porting – in areas where they feel that loss ratios are expected to be within manageable limits
Company plans to take a price hike ( of about 10-15 pc )on 30 pc of its product portfolio in current FY. On the total portfolio level, this should work out to be a hike of around 4-5 pc

Wonderla Holidays (22-09-2024)
Good. The reason they may not be going to tier II & III towns is a priority issue. I guess, First they want to cover major towns where people with higher disposable income are present. Land & water availability can also be an issue.
Fratelli Vineyards Ltd – A successful business transition in play? (22-09-2024)
@HarshVijay– The company probably did not have clarity about their objectives. As a matter of oversight or other reasons, the web sight of tinna trade is still lacking updation. Their claims may seem lofty having read the discussion in this thread vis-a-vis the claims in the website which says in corporate profile page:
