Oasis Tradelink Ltd IPO Review (Avoid)

Review By on June 19, 2014

 

Oasis Tradelink Ltd (OTL) is in the business of trading and marketing of branded and packaged edible oils and entered into the manufacturing and production by leasing a packaging/production unit in Kadi in north Gujarat. Over the last couple of years, the company has achieved growth in sales, owing to acquiring marketing and sales rights of MARUTI Brand oil in Gujarat. The company sources its products from multinational suppliers, and packages them under various popular brands. Over the years, the company has built up a credible sales-force to market its products in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. OTL manufactures and markets Refined Cottonseed Oil, Pure Groundnut Oil, Refined Groundnut Oil, Refined Sunflower Oil, Refined Corn Oil, Pure Mustard Oil and Refined Soybean Oil. 

 

To meet its working capital requirement and brand building and other expenses, the company is coming out with an IPO of 2000000 equity share of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs. 30 per share to mobilize Rs. 6 crore. Issue opens for subscription on 23.06.14 and will close on 30.06.14. Minimum application is to be made for 4000 shares and in multiple thereof, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE SME platform. Issue is lead managed by Guiness Corporate Advisors Pvt Ltd and Sharepro Services (India) Pvt Ltd is the registrar to the issue. 

 

For last two fiscals it has posted turnover and net profit of Rs. 43.39 crore and Rs. 0.16 crore (2011-12) and Rs. 73.58 crore and Rs. 0.13 crore (2012-13). For first nine months ended 31.12.13 it has reported turnover of Rs. 91.54 crore with a net profit of Rs. 0.14 crore. Its equity of Rs. 1 crore has grown to Rs. 5.30 crore during this period with fresh issue mostly at par and bonus in the ratio of 7 for 20 in August 2013. Post issue its equity will be Rs. 7.30 crore. If we attribute current earnings on expanded equity then the issue price is at a P/E of 26 plus making it a costly bet. 

On merchant banker’s front, this is 13th SME mandate with very odd performances for past offers.

Issue opens for subscription on 23.06.14 and will close on 30.06.14.


Conclusion / Investment Strategy

 

Not Worth. It has entry barrier as well.

Reviewer recommends Avoid to the issue.
