Further reduction of pledge by Ashu Farms and now at 5.53% from 8.68% (out of 10.99% holding) is reported to exchanges. This is a good news.

Nath Bio-Genes has been growing both it’s top & bottom lines by 20% over the last 3-4 years. Company’s Market Cap is still under book value. Apart from the pledging by management, can’t see any negatives here (Management has promised to remove the pledges in a recent concall). Any thoughts on this anyone?

We might have a Phil Fisher type stock at a Ben Graham price.

In recent quarter the pledge has increased inspite of decreasing

The recent quarter result have been very poor.
The high working capital with high debtor days leading to given poor valuation despite having similar OPM to market leader KSCL (20-25%) and better than other peers–JK Agri Genetics/Bombay Super Hybrid seeds-(<10%)
Now the top and bottom lines de growth seems to be discouraging.
Anyone having more deeper insights related to the company.??

Any specific reason of horroble Q4 nos.

Anyone who is tracking this company promoters added a lot some months back, can anyone simplify their cotton seed speciality.

There is an increase in contingent liabilities from about 77Cr to 97Cr. Out of this, 43Cr is income tax demand for disallowing agricultural income.

Why did management not publish any presentation after the Q1 25 result or make any
concall?

Anyone tracking this company? Valuation is quite attractive at 9 TTM P/E. Aditya Birla MF is exiting - hence selling pressure. Guidance of 15% growth seems achievable - reported good growth in other segments. Margin is the only concern to me. Views please.
