Excellent write up and I think you are right. but sometimes it becomes difficult to exit your winners but as you said one need to be rational then emotional and also it is very difficult to sit on cash ( atleast for me ).

In bykes case the reason provided is insufficient information from the company.
One other case when suspensions happen are when the company decides to approach some other rating agency( discontinues existing one by not providing info).

• But the current loan outstanding is only 6 cr .
• Byke is not looking to raise any fresh debt( as per recent reports)

Hope to get some clarification in the coming AR.

Reviewed the annual report of PI Industries….anyone interested in understanding the agri inputs sector should spend a couple of hours going through the MD&A in 2014 and 2015 PI Annual report

- KEEFUN will be extended to other crops and strengthen PI position in cotton and horticulture
