Old Monk Brand Mohan Meakin is looking for re-list on MSEI - 15.01.2020

Mohan Meakin, the maker of the popular brand of rum "Old Monk", has submitted its papers with the Metropolitan Stock Exchange (MSE) to re-list on the exchanges. "In the next two to three months, the procedures towards re-listing will be  complete." The 163-year-old company looks to return to the capital markets 16 years after it had de-listed its equity shares from the Delhi and Calcutta stock exchanges. <div class="hide-moblie mid-arti-ad"> <div id="Moneycontrol_Mobile_WAP/MC_WAP_News/MC_WAP_News_Internal_OutStream"> The firm, which is the oldest liquor brewing company in India, had a paid-up capital of Rs 4.25 crore, reserve and reserves and surpluses of Rs 27.01 crore at the time of de-listing in 2003. In FY 2019, the company's net profit stood at Rs 33 crore and total debt was at Rs 11 crore as compared to about Rs 30 crore in the previous year. The company's net worth in FY 19 was at Rs 92 crore, higher than Rs 58 crore seen in the previous year. The company's "Old Monk" brand has seen a loyal customer base, and although the liquor business was impacted by a ban from a few state governments in the last few years, the consumption of liquor has increased significantly. In FY19, the alcohol segment grew 46 percent. Old Monk contributes nearly 80 percent of the total sales for Mohan Meakin and in FY19 the contribution from Old Monk itself would be approximately Rs 758.3 crore. <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Source: Moneycontrol.</strong></span> </div> </div>

Unlisted Companies may have to give Quarterly or Half-Yearly Results - 05.01.2020

As per the news published in livemint, the Govt. is planning to introduce a provision in the Company's Act 2013 to make unlisted companies give their financial results on a quarterly or Half-yearly basis, similar to listed companies, in place of yearly disclosure. Unlisted companies mostly provide annual financial data in the month of Oct or Nov. This means, the annual results ending in March, becomes available to investors via Ministry of Corporate Affairs, after 6 Months. <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>UnlistedZone Take:</strong></span> <strong>1</strong>. All companies should not fall into this provision, as it will increase unnecessary compliance costs of filling &amp; auditing of financials data, etc, especially for smaller companies. So, turnover or PAT based criterion must be adopted to select which company has to comply with this provision and should not be applied to all in unison. <strong>2</strong>. This is a good step considering, today, we get to know about the financials of the companies once in a year. So, if this provision comes into the picture, then we can gauze company performance on a 3-Months or 6-Months basis, which will give more insight into the business of the company. <strong>3</strong>. Good for unlisted shares investors as they will come in par with listed companies shareholders, in terms of frequency of disclosures.

As per report, Swiggy and Zomato, make a loss of Rs.20-30 per order they serve. However, once these companies acquired substantial footfalls, getting good profits growth would not be an issue.</span> <span style="font-size: 12pt;">PE/Venture investors are now cautioned with the painful experience of Softbank with recent "We Work", the largest co-Office and Workstation sharing company in the world, where they lost close to $4 Billion dollars due to the fear of expensive valuation and no sign of profitability in near future and have given clear instructions to all companies where they have done investment to focus on profitability to avoid such incidents in the future.</span> The next 5-10 years will be challenging for these unicorns to make their mark in this world. Till now all are making a good fortune with huge investment flowing in. From here on, they need to work really hard and make the company profitable so that they can bring IPO and give investors a good return on their investments.
