On Jan 25, it fell from 231 to 192 with speed & rapidity and from thereon, it is in downtrend. I think market does not like the management. I would like to buy it at 150 (50% capital).
Their contingent liability is very huge (around 900 crore) and the major portion of that is in 'Bills Discounted'. In the event, foreign customers default in payment to banks, company will have to pay to banks. These are not provisions, but just disclosures. The company is just saying that in case some of the bills are not honored, the company may have additional liabilities. The company has not made any provisions for these bills.
All companies make such disclosures in their annual reports- e.g. at the end of FY 2010, ICICI Bank had contingent liabilities worth Rs 7,27,084 crore; 14 times its networth.
Contingent liability could be because of the audit done by Income Tax of their account books. IT Department has summoned their Managing Director on tax related issue. As these Rs 900 crore are not provisions (and are non-existent), the company can't pay anything from these Rs 900 crore to IT department. The company is hardly paying any tax. For such companies, it is much easier to show fictitious profits. A company that has to pay 30% tax will think twice before over-reporting profits. Could this be the reason that mutual funds are ignoring this company?
Sundry debtors in HY11 results should not happen because the company is exporting the items to retail shop and without being really sold to end customer it is shown as real sales on the book. They might be loading foreign retailers on credit and showing it as sales in the quarterly reports, while actual sale realization would be when items go to the consumers from retailer/shop owner.
Even I am not sure about the total debt of the company. As per RHP, "debt increased from Rs. 89,213.41 lacs to Rs. 1,20,164.06 lacs in 2009-10; debt-equity ratio stood at 2.24 as on 31st March 2010".
Let's take total debt as 1201.64 crore. As per balance sheet, networth of the company is 536.66 crore. Then, debt-equity ratio is 2.239, which is same as 2.24 that is mentioned in the annual report. However, the balance sheet says that the total debt is Rs 349 crore. Even if I add all current liabilities of Rs 623 crore, I don't get Rs 1201.64 crore.
If the price of C mahendra is not being rigged by operators, then I strongly feel that all these jewellery stocks are good bets in future ( Gitanjali gems, Thangamyl jewelley, and now C Mahendra). Only Laggard is Shree Ganesh Jewllery, which inspite of such good results have been hammered down. I don't know the reason but I strongly feel that this stock will bounceback ( at least to its IPO price of Rs 260) once the markets are in green for extended period. Any other boarder comments are welcome. Note: I hold 300 shares at IPO price.

@260. Kewal: It is not at all a good idea to keep SL. Most of the times it will trigger and then share will go so high that you will think why you put SL. Also, once your shares are sold, you won't be able to average them and there will be no chance to cover your loss.
Kewal keep sl of 110 or u have to bare good amount of loss
