I dont like the tone of your question and hence would refrain from answering you.

You need a few lessons in the use of proper language esp when you are asking someone questions. It seems you are asking questions trying to prove a point rather than trying to get something out of the question.

If u find richdreamz's calculations misleading then u can do some effort of your own and put up your own calculations and we can take it up from there.

I know you have got a bee in your bonnet about HFCs but I wouldnt be bothered with that.

@srnarayan, @richdreamz

True....if the acquisitions doesn't materialise in coming few months, the acquisitions done after that will need to be right and perfectly right otherwise a very bad example will be set by the management for the investor community which will be very detrimental for company's long term fund raising prospects.....if management is comfortable of its company's valuations, then no rationale management with zero debt will dilute equity without concrete proposals and no concrete proposals can take more than six months to seal......In today's dynamic world, time lost is opportunity lost and so a slight right decision taken late could be as good as wrong when you have already slipped to 10th position from 5th position....I am sure Mr. Arora is aware of this fact and so if he is taking more time then we might see a very good game changer acquisition....let's keep our fingers crossed.

Rgds.

Conclusion: Came out highly impressed with management.Entry into UK market +ve for RTE. Newer products with McDonalds, KFC, FAASOS shows traction in QSR. I liked their response on dividends where they said as long as we are able to deploy capital generating significantly higher returns than cost of capital the dividend payouts will be limited. Post that period they will increase significantly.

Discl: Holding from lower levels.

Latest Board Meeting held on 5th October in which the Board has provided following two in-principle approvals:
