    31/748 as it was General Category. Due to some technical difficulties, I was unable to sell the excess stock. This has led to the loss. Some times it happens. We have to face the huge loss.

      48 out of 253 tendered. Based on today ‘s closing price, overall gain of about 1100/ only. Anything is better than loss/nothing.

      Buyback opens on 31/8/2023 and closes on 06/9/2023. Last date of settlement of bids is 13/9/2023.

    What is the ER for FDC?

    1. KRBL – 17.22%
    2. Piramal Enterprise – 14:28%

    Expected ER would be around 8-10% last time Actual ER was 6.51%.
    Expected AR would be around 25-35%. Last time it was 13.81%.

    Due to others buybacks i.e. PEL, KRBL and Indiamart. AR of FDC should be more than expectation

      I too expect comparatively better AR for FDC. The next may be KRBL

        ALL 3 BUYBACK WILL GIVE EXCELLENT RETURNS. WRT FDC, RESULTS WERE OUTSTANDING, WAS QUITE SURPISED WITH STEEP FALL IN SHAREPRICE. GOOD OF ALL OF US, IT HAS GIVEN GOOD ENTRY PRICE FOR BUYBACK… I ALSO THINK ER WILL BE AROUND TO 8 TO 11%

    Hello members Kindly respond Which is the best fr share buyback among the 3
    Krbl fdc piramal Best fundamentals I tried to analyse them
    And liked krbl but fdc is in pharma sector which has caught fancy What do you think Kama ji, Sumit ji, nd other members

      My order of preference is KRBL,PIRAMAL, FDC. I am afraid that the FDC may not yield good benefits as expected earlier.
