Ess Dee Aluminium Sells 5% To Morgan Stanley For Rs 81 Crore
It has been a remarkable journey for Ess Dee Aluminium, an aluminium foil-based packaging company for pharma businesses, from Rs 1 lakh turnover in 1991 to Rs 1,600 crore valuation in 2007. The company has just raised Rs 81 crore by diluting 5 per cent stake to Morgan Stanley. This was a company which analysts urged investors to avoid when it came up with an IPO in December last year.
Ess Dee Aluminium on Wednesday informed Bombay Stock Exchange that it would issue 1.41 million equity shares of Rs 10 face value on a preferential basis to Morgan Stanley at Rs 575 a share. That makes the deal worth Rs 81.07 crore or $18 million, valuing the company at $360 million. Interestingly, in March 2007, foreign fund Fidelity had picked up 5.21 per cent stake in the company for about Rs 40 crore, at just half of the current valuation.
It also has other biggies as investors - ICICI and Marc Faber who hold around 3.5 per cent and 4 per cent equity, respectively, besides Volrado Venture Partners (6.06 per cent) and Deutsche Securities Mauritius Ltd (2.11 per cent). Morgan Stanley's investment in Ess Dee comes at a time when it was also reportedly in talks to buy out the Vedanta Resources unit India Foils.
The story of Ess Dee, set up by Sudip Dutta (he apparently bought the sick unit from his employers), has its beginnings from a small scale unit in Jogeshwari in Mumbai with 12 employees in 1991. It started with manufacturing pouches and sachets and had its first year sales of just Rs 1 lakh. In 1994, they were appointed as one of the distributors for Indian Aluminium Company Ltd (INDAL). But the breakthrough came in 1994, when it acquired a sick aluminium foil printing unit in Goregaon on a rental basis, after which it entered the pharmaceutical packaging and printing market. It hasn't looked back ever since.

The Board of state-run lender IFCI will consider a proposal on 6 July to invite preliminary bids for selling at least 26% stake to a strategic investor.Along with annual results, the board would take up the issue of inviting expression of interests (EoI) from strategic investors.

According to the plan, strategic investors will have to make bids within a month of the memorandum of information being made public. Following this, IFCI will shortlist some investors. These investors will be allowed to do a detailed due diligence and submit a fresh bid indicating the price they are willing to pay for the 26% stake.
Based on the second round of bids, the IFCI board will decide on the new stakeholder.
As a precusor to stake sale, IFCI had in May passed an enabling resolution to increase foreign holding in the company up to 74% of its share capital.
Foreign investors Morgan Stanley (2.5%), Goldman Sachs (3.3%), Citigroup (2.5%) and Deutsche Securities (4.61%) already have equity interest in IFCI.Eleven financial institutions, domestic and overseas, hold 34.8% in the company as on 31 March, which includes 8.4% and 5.01% held by LIC and IDBI respectively.
