VIMAL OIL AND FOODS - UPDATES

I have received lot of queries regarding the open offer made by the existing promoters of Vimal oil and foods @ Rs.51/-. As per the prevailing law, promoters can hike their stake through creeping acquisition method upto 5% in each financial year .But in this case they have  pumped an amount more than  Rs.30 Cr by subscribing 60 lac equity shares at a price of Rs.50.16/- through preferential issue . This is  way above the limit of 15%(upto open offer not applicable).Hence as per the rule ,it is a mandatory open offer. Since the market price is above open offer price ,chances are low to get shares in this offer till market price ruling above the open offer price . This means ,open offer @ Rs.51/- is not a reason to come down the share price to this level in any way.On the other side ,this development is really a positive one.Promoters are bringing huge money to the company itself is a sign of their confidence .This amount is expected to partly used for reducing debt  and balance for further business development ,which is positive for the company in the long run
