Your shareholding, as of record date (15th April, 2021), in Harita Seating Systems Limited (Transferor Company) and your entitlement in Minda Industries Limited (Transferee Company) as per the Scheme is given hereunder :-

The Transferee Company RPS are redeemable on the expiry of 36 (thirty six) months from the date of allotment thereof with an option with the Transferee Company to redeem them any time after the expiry of 18 (eighteen) months.

If some could help to understand, I would like to know the difference between both the options and which option would be better to opt for.

Hiā€¦Read the full thread. Respected members, who are holding from long time,How has been your experience? Currently i want to add some company from Auto segment and i came across this Uno Minda. Do you think, it can be part of consistent compounder? as if I invest in it, it will be for long period like 8-10 years. Do you think,so many subsidiaries and joint ventures , make it complex to understand and it can be used as financial shenanigans? All views are welcome.

Holding for 6 yrs from lower levels. Participated in all company re-structural events. Absolutely no question on management. Now donā€™t look at price movement much,only quarterly reviews. But in my opinion not a good time to enter,share price at 52wk high level.

Few things observed :

  1. So many subsidiaries and joint ventures and associates , making a very complex corporate structure
  2. Its actually sandwitched between two types of Sharks. From supply side, where they procure their raw materials they have to deal with big players like TATA etc. On demand side, they have to sell their products to big players like Maruti. Bajaj etc. So on both sides they cant be in a drivers seatā€¦and have to accept what these sharks decideā€¦No control over margins.

Despite these challenges in last 10 years , it has become 55 baggersā€¦If invested 10 lakhs in 2013, it would have become more than 55 lakhsā€¦Its so awesomeā€¦Many business challenges, which otherwise would have stopped any intelligent investor in investing in this company has made 55 times money. This clearly shows that sometimes ignoring the obvious problems can be so rewarding.
