I have gone through the thread and since I could not find any reference to decrease in promoter shareholding so I asked the question. I am here to contribute and learn. You need not throw your condecending attitude around just because you may know a bit more than me. Also dont always assume you know more than somebody else. Your reply to me is in bad taste.

Northern Arc – Long term play (29-10-2024)
In challenging external business conditions, Northern Arc has delivered an excellent set of numbers. Gross NPA’s have risen marginally from 0.47% to 0.6%. However, what is heartening to see is that the company has consciously decreased the MFI book from 23% as of March ’24 to sub 20% now.Also NIM’s are stable at 9.1% and cost of funds have declined from 9.3% to 8.9%.
With 65% of the borrowings floating in nature, the company seems well positioned to benefit from the anticipated lower interest environment in the future.
On the asset front, around 35% to 40% of the total assets are floating, linked to the internal benchmark rates subject to the interest rate sensitivity, which should give a fillip to the NIM’s going forward. At a trailing P/B of 1.2 times, it could be a strong rerating candidate going forward.

Tatva Chintan – A catalyst for growth (29-10-2024)
Helloooo! We are back again at this comp. It did pretty bad, though. It recently went into net loss, which makes it even more interesting 
I went through their Q2FY25 concall and here are the updates:
Weak Demand Environment
They are primarily dependent on 3 Global industries since most of their revenues come from export. These industries are :
- Heavy Duty Commercial Vehicle (demand for SDA is correlated to this)
China HDCV Sales (22% down), UK (9% down), EU (5% down) - Agrochemicals (PTC and PASC is correlated to this)
- Polymers (because their products find application in polymers)
All 3 of these are doing pretty bad and facing headwinds. Management expects a turnaround by Q2FY26. Management says that Q3 will be bad and from Q4 gradual pickup will be seen. but its just a guesstimate by them. Nobody knows when things will turn around. One can simply follow management’s commentary for demand revival.
I believe that when information will be clear on demand revival, many mutual funds are gonna come and buy because the triggers are placed, its just that we need the demand to come back.
I am attaching a screenshot for updates on each line of business
I am not saying its a brilliant business. IDK. All I know is that it will be a good trade. Triggers are placed , all I am waiting for is the demand to revive. And believe me, its not only me, there are many others (be it institutions or individuals) who are waiting for the same. Because the business listed at P/B – 12x. which demonstrates that it has been a very popular stock among investors. Currently its trading at P/B – 2.6x. Demand revives and people will come pouncing on this one!

Can agree with that, EPFO FAQ says
” The employees who are drawing the basic wages and dearness allowance up to Rs.15, 000/- are alone eligible to become a member. He will continue to be a member even when his pay exceeds Rs.15, 000/-. However, his contribution to the Fund will be restricted to Rs.15, 000/-. The employer is also required to pay his matching contribution up to Rs.15, 000/-. Employees drawing more than Rs.15000/- can also become a member of EPF by giving option under para 26(6) of the EPF Scheme. The option has to be submitted to the EPF office within 6 months of joining of such member.”
So simple shortcut is pay 15001 INR and voila you are exempt from PF. In line with their hiring practices of hiring freshers, response by CS is most probably correct.
But definitely a questionable practice. Raises question about their employee policy. Also seems its a Key Man Driven Organization. Key Man is both Promoter and KMP, with ownership of IP held by Key Man in a distinct and separate entity.
