MLSL is issuing RI in the ratio of 1 for 1 to eligible stakeholders as of the record date of February 13, 2023.  The issue opens for subscription on February 22, 2023, and will close on March 03, 2023.

MLSL is spending Rs.0.39 cr. for the RI process and from the net proceeds, it will utilize Rs. 13.65 cr. for working capital and Rs. 0.89 cr. for general corporate purposes. 

Saffron Capital Advisors Pvt. Ltd. is the sole lead manager and Bigshare Services Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar of the issue.

Post RI, MLSL's current paid-up equity capital of Rs. 14.93 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 29.87 cr. Based on the RI pricing, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 29.87 cr.

Thus it has marked an almost static top line for the last two fiscals and some improvement for the first nine months of FY23. 

DIVIDEND POLICY:
The company has not declared any dividends in the past. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy post listings of RI shares based on its financial performance and future prospects.

The scrip last closed on cum-right basis at Rs. 11.75 on February 10, 2023, and opened on an ex-right basis at Rs. 11.70 on February 13, 2023. Since then, it has marked a high/low of Rs. 12.40 / Rs. 11.40. The scrip last closed at Rs. 11.75 as of February 17, 2023. For the last 52 weeks, it has posted a high/low of Rs. 18.15 / Rs. 9.10. The promoters' holding has been constant at 45.07% for the last two quarters ended on December 31, 2022. The counter is well managed above the par value to lure investors.


Conclusion / Investment Strategy

MLSL’s financial track record so far is non-illusive. Its earning capacities may pose an issue for servicing the doubling equity post-RI. Well-informed/cash surplus investors may park funds in this at par offer.
