Lineage

Tega Industries may be new to investing public but, the promoters are not.  Kolkata-based investors may recall the name Marudhar Food & Credit Ltd. This 1992 boom-time-registered company was listed on the Calcutta Stock Exchange and the promoters chose to go for a voluntarily delisting in October 2014.  It seems now that the promoters had delisted Marudhar in order to maximize their return while unlocking the value of Tega. Marudhar directly holds 1.96% of Tega’s equity. It also holds 16.76% in the corporate promoter of Tega, namely Nihal Fiscal Services Private Ltd (NFSPL) which holds 55.14% in Tega. The promoters have now proposed to merge Marudhar with Tega’s holding company, NFSPL.   

Tega’s individual promoters are Madan Mohan Mohanka, Manju Mohanka, Manish Mohanka and Mehul Mohanka. The 1976-incorporated Tega commenced operations in 1978 in India with a foreign collaboration with Skega AB, Sweden. The company entered into a joint venture alliance with Hosch (G.B.) Ltd in 1991. The Mohankas acquired the entire equity stake of Skega AB in 2001.

Tega acquired Beruc Equipment, South Africa in 2006.  The company reportedly acquired Acotec S.A, Chile and Losugen Pty Ltd, Australia in 2010 and 2011. Also, in 2011 Tega received funding from Wagner Ltd, an entity affiliated to private equity firm TA Associates. In 2018 Tega Industries (SEZ) Limited was amalgamated with the company.

 

Key Management

Senior promoter, Madan Mohan Mohanka (78), who holds a bachelor’s degree in science (engineering) and a post graduate diploma in business administration from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad is the Chairman and Executive Director of the company. He has more than four decades of experience in the industry.

Main promoter’s son Mehul Mohanka (46) is the Managing Director and Group CEO of the company. He holds a bachelor’s degree in commerce and a master’s degree in business administration from the University of Pittsburgh. He has been involved in the company’s business for the last 18 years, and has led the business as Managing Director and Group CEO for the last 5 years.

Tega’s Executive Director Syed Yaver Imam holds a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering and has reportedly completed a short-term course in mineral processing. He has been associated with the company since 2005.

 

Stakeholders

Currently there are five shareholders under the Promoter Group, collectively holding 85.17% of the equity of which the corporate promoter NFSPL alone holds 55.14%. There are 31 non-promoter shareholders holding 14.83% of which 14.62% is held by Wagner alone. Post-offer for sale, the promoter group would hold 79.17% and the public will have 20.83%.

The company’s revenue from operations outside India was Rs 696 Cr, Rs 588 Cr and Rs 544 Cr in the fiscals 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, amounting to about 86% of its total revenue.

In fact, the company has a significant size of global operations which are undertaken through 13 foreign Subsidiaries and 18 global sales offices.

 

Financial Track

Valuation

Tega has fixed a price band of Rs 443-453 for Rs 10 paid up share. The upper price band discounts the company’s fiscal 2021 earnings about 19 times which is quite reasonable. As a matter of fact, Tega compares well with its industry peer AIA Engineering in Price-Earnings, Price-Book Value, Price-EBIDTA, Price-Revenue, Price-Net Block, etc.

Concern

Tega scores poorly on the corporate governance front. There have been inadvertent lapses with regard to RBI related filings for ESOPs granted between 2011 and 2015 to certain non-resident employees.  Also, the company is not able to trace some records of RoC filings, share allotments/transfers and board resolutions.
