He further added, "But recently the company came out with the rights issue and it has reduced its rate by about 60%. So, this year I expect the interest burden to come down substantially. At the same time, what has happened is that its realisation per bag, which last year stood at about Rs 152 a bag is likely to go up to about Rs 185-190 for the current year. So, I expect the company to report a profit of somewhere around Rs 80 crore or so, which would translate to an EPS of about Rs 5 for the current year. So it’s trading at about Rs 33-34, which is about 7 times the current year earnings and looks pretty good for a 50% upside."
