AGI Infra Ltd (AIL)  is a flagship company of the AGI Group which is a reputed Punjab based group having its presence in the construction industry for more than 14 years. The AGI Group has delivered a number of high-rise buildings in Punjab which includes Residential flats, Hotels, Educational blocks and Auditorium for Universities, Hospitals, Hostels for Medical colleges, Commercial Complex, Police Stations, Schools, Shopping Malls, Auto showroom etc.

AIL is an integrated construction and real estate development company, primarily focusing on construction and development of commercial / residential projects, in and around Punjab. The company has successfully completed a Group Housing Project - “G. I. Apartments” comprising of 78 flats at the Phagwara District, Kapurthala in 2009. In 2011, it launched flagship Group Housing Project – “Jalandhar Heights”. As part of Jalandhar Heights Extn. Project, the company has, as of September 30, 2014, constructed about 6 lacs sq. ft. of Saleable Area, out of which about 3.40 lacs Sq. Ft. saleable area has been delivered, and have further begun construction work for 4.19 lac sq. ft. which it proposes to deliver within the next few quarters. Further, AIL proposes to develop an additional 9.72 lac sq. ft. as part of this project once it completes the above.
 
To part finance its Jalanahar Heights project and raise long term working capital and corpus fund, the company is offering 2776000 equity share of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs. 54 per share to mobilize Rs. 14.99 crore. The issue opens for subscription on 10.03.15 and will close on 13.03.15. Minimum application is to be made for 2000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Issue is solely lead managed by Aryaman Financial Services Ltd and Bigshare Services Pvt Ltd is the registrar to the issue. Post allotments, shares will be listed on BSE SME platform.

The company splitted its face value to Rs. 10 from Rs. 100 in September 2014. Before this it issued preferential equity to promoters at a price of Rs. 500 in June 2007 and then issued bonus in the ratio of 6 for 1 in April 2011. It again issued preferential equity at a price of Rs. 200 in March 2012 and then again issued bonus shares in the ratio of 2 for 5 in September 2014 to reach its current equity of Rs. 7.44 crore that will rise to Rs. 10.22 crore post this issue.

The company has posted an average EPS of Rs. 2.77 for last three fiscals. For the first half of current fiscal ended on 30.09.14, it has earned net profit of Rs 1.61 crore on a turnover of Rs. 24.27 crore. Based on this if we annualized the earnings, then the asking price is at a P/E of 17 plus on fully expanded equity post this issue.

Merchant banker has poor track record so far.


Conclusion / Investment Strategy

This SME offer is with entry barriers and the low preference for SME IPOs by the broking community at large. However, investors with surplus funds may invest at their own discretion for long term, bearing in mind that stock market investments are linked to market risks. The author has no plans to invest in this IPO.
