More about Palm Plantation & Government Support
Palm Oil Import
India imported around 133.52 lakh tonnes of edible oils costing around ₹ 80,000 crore. Out of all the imported edible oils, the share of palm oil is about 56%, followed by soybean oil at 27%. 74 lakh tonnes of palm oil imported. India Crude Palm Oil production 2.72 lakh tonnes as per 2021 stats
What is Palm Oil
Palm oil is derived from the fleshy mesocarp of the fruit, which contains about 45-55% of oil. Palm kernel oil, obtained from the kernel of oil palm, is the source of lauric oils. With quality planting material, irrigation and proper management, oil palm has the potential to produce 20-25 MT fresh fruit bunches (FFBs) per ha after attaining the age of 8- 9 years. In comparative terms the yield of palm oil is 5 times the yield of edible oil obtainable from traditional oilseeds
Government support to palm oil plantation
The government of India has continuously been making efforts to increase the area production of oil palm. For increased the availability of edible oils in the country and to reduce the import burden, various interventions since 1991-92 through schemes such as the Technology Mission on Oilseed & Pulses (TMOP), Integrated Scheme on Oilseeds, Pulses, Oil Palm and Maize (ISOPOM), Oil Palm Area Expansion (OPAE), National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil Palm (NMOOP) and the National Food Security Mission (NFSM)–Oilseeds & Oil Palm were under implementation in 13 States viz; Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Chhattisgarh, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Gujarat, Karnataka, Odisha, Mizoram, Nagaland, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur with the funding pattern of 60:40 in case of general States and 90:10 in case of North-Eastern States and hill States.
IF they are able to execute the plantation business they wil go on to become the largest palm oil business in the country. They are targeting 7.5 lakh tonne of plam oil production in the next 30 years, lets extrapolate that to 2.5 lakh tone in next 10 years.
Indias current total Palm Oil production is 2.72 lakh tonne only. Promoter has 80% of shareholding and i think they will offload and bring it down to 75/70. they recently met with some of the big names from Indian mutual fund and pms industry.

I am invested and I will be slowly accumulating this stock. The liquidity in this stock is low and hence it may be volatile in price movement.
The biggest risk to the business is not being able to execute the plantation business. otherwise its a simple oil trading business (commodity play but essential commodity)
Growth drivers are the foods, and nutraceuticals business in the future, and that growth has not been factored into the price yet.
Waiting for the 2022 Annual Report to the get more detailed understanding on the company
