Murae Organisor Dec. 24 BSE RI review - (Avoid)

•    The company is engaged in the marketing, trading and distribution of pharma products.
•    This is the 2nd RI from the company since April 2023.
•    It has posted dismal financial performance for the reported periods. 
•    Hike in equity to the level of Rs. 185.90 cr. may pose its servicing issue. 
•    There is no promoter holding in this company.
•    Though this RI is at par value, there is no harm in skipping it. It’s a “High Risk/No Return” bet.
