NR Agarwal- A value buy with possibility of being a multi bagger

Good point @lsubs

The management claims to have factored in fluctuations in raw material prices and availability to a certail extent. Quoting from Note 41 of their anual report for FY 20:

"The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the ongoing manufacture of paper and paper boards and therefore require a continuous supply of raw materials i.e. waste paper, chemicals, coal etc. being the major input used in the manufacturing. Due to the signifcantly increased volatility of the price of waste paper and coal the Company had entered into various purchase contracts for these material for which there is an active market. The Company’s management has developed and enacted a risk management strategy regarding commodity price risk and its mitigation.

The Company partly mitigated the risk of price volatility by entering into the contract for the purchase of these material and further the Company increases prices of its products as and when appropriate to minimize the impact of increase in raw material prices."
