INTERESTING FACTS-
Liberal dividend policy
In May 14, the supply of natural gas from RIL,GAIL to Deepak’s Fertilizers was stopped resulting in a huge blow for the company via cost over runs.
As a result the financial performance of the company in the past 6 qts has been poor. Net margins have fallen from 6-8% to 2%.
However when the gas supply resumes( as Delhi High court has directed the govt to do so in Jul and Oct this year), it will be a huge trigger for the company resulting in huge gains in EPS
Agressive promoter group buying in the company post the stock price correction (in Jan-Mar qtr, increasing the stake by 4.5% to 50%)
By all indications, gas supply should be restored next year and hence the earnings may explode.
Thus it can end up becoming a huge turnaround opportunity
