Cupid Limited withdraws its decision to invest in TFCIL via Preferential Allotment.

Interesting! It is likely that Cupid’s warrant allottees pressurized the management to withdraw from this. Aditya Halwasiya is only 29 and allowed to make mistakes! Better to admit them and make a course correction than to persist for the sake of ego. But note that Cupid’s press release quotes Kuldeep Halwasiya, which is odd. Until now, Aditya has been the public face of the company - talking to the media, answering concalls etc. Now Mr. Kuldeep has stepped in to reverse his decision. I wonder if we should read more into this.
TFCI EGM to pass the resolution for preferential allotment took place just on Friday. Not sure if this is a coincidence or if Cupid’s decision to withdraw was made earlier but kept under wraps till TFCI concluded its EGM. Cupid was hitting lower circuit almost continuously since 11th March but reversed course on 20th and closed at upper circuit on Thursday and Friday (21st & 22nd).

Did the promoter foresee all this and sold out the company at 1 /10 th the valuations. Anyone who has a better explanation
Exactly, what i find very weird is how the company can post such great numbers in a matter of a couple of quarters after new management takeover? The previous management has been with the company for a long time and how could they not forsee this growth?

While I am uncertain about how the new management achieved significant progress within a brief timeframe—an area that warrants further investigation—I believe it is inappropriate to involve the previous management in this discussion. The former Managing Director, OmPrakash Garg, and his team had been considering transitioning leadership to a younger team for quite some time (if memory serves, over four years) due to his advancing age. It is conceivable that, given his life stage, his primary focus would have been on maintaining business continuity until the transition could occur seamlessly. I would not anticipate him dedicating time and resources to new initiatives aimed at future growth, especially considering that the incoming team would likely prefer a clean slate and may not wish to inherit partially completed projects. While opportunities may have existed for the previous team to pursue, their priorities may have led them to forego such endeavors. These are my observations on the matter, recognizing that my perspective may not be definitive. Therefore, I encourage conducting thorough research and analysis before forming conclusions.

Hi I’m just covering the behavioral aspect of investing ( like how some ipos get Mispriced). I know Om Garg was looking for suitors as his next generation was unwilling to take over. My question is why he sold something that he built from scratch and which took him a lifetime to build for 1/10 of the valuation .Im not even talking about the current quarter results( i haven’t gone to details but its not some improbable results). The stock rallied almost 6-7 times even before. My question is did he get shortchanged. I would be furious with myself if i had sold something that’s valuable for peanuts.
Another example I can provide is how Dr. Velumani sold thyrocare at peak valuations since his children are not interested to take over.
