The counter is well managed around and above RI pricing with thin volumes to lure investors. It is trading at a negative P/E and has accumulated losses.

Conclusion / Investment Strategy

TMSML is engaged in leasing and constructing of properties but has no stake in the textile business as appears in its name. It has been incurring losses and has a negative net worth. Currently, the counter is under GSM – Stage 4. Around 75% promoter’s holding is the only attraction. There is no harm in skipping this at par RI considering the negativity in its performances so far.

Reviewer recommends Avoid to the issue.
