Company has MSKA & Associates as its auditors. As on 31-03-2025, the company has a total of 7 crore shares outstanding.
Investment Rationale
Gokaldas Exports expects near-term (2-2.5 quarters) challenges as higher costs will be borne by suppliers and retailers simultaneously. Though, this additional cost is expected to be passed on to the end-customers eventually, leading to a recovery in margins in 2HFY26. The company also witnessed some impact in order book for 2QFY26 but expects it to recover post some clarity on tariffs in July (end of 90-day pause). The company believes that in a case where tariffs sustain at 10%, additional costs will be shared amongst retailer, supplier (Indian exporters) and end-consumers. Even if tariffs are reinstated to the initial levels with India at ~26%, Indian players remain well-placed given higher tariffs to be faced by other countries like Vietnam, China, Bangladesh etc. In both these situations, additional cost is expected to be passed on to the end-consumer over time. The Company plans to take a decision on BTPL merger soon. If approved, merger is expected to be completed in next year. The longer term seems favourable with a continuing shift of global sourcing away from China given higher tariffs, supplier consolidation towards efficient and well capitalized players, and supply-side instabilities in several countries. Gokaldas exports remain JM Financial's top pick in the textile space. They reiterate BUY with an unchanged target price at Rs 1,265.

Signal-free flyover proposed to ease congestion on routes connecting South Delhi with Gurgaon and Noida
Not just during the peak hours, many key stretches in South Delhi witness traffic snarls throughout the day. The Central government has finally come up with a proposal to decongest such areas — a 20-km elevated corridor to connect prominent areas in South Delhi to Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport and Gurgaon. The flyover will connect areas around AIIMS in South Delhi to Mahipalpur in Southwest Delhi. The bypass project will further be extended to the Gurgaon-Faridabad Road, said officials. The signal-free elevated corridor is estimated to cost around Rs 5,000 crore. 'At present, both Ring Road and Outer Ring Road are arterial routes, especially from Noida and Ghaziabad, for commuters travelling to Delhi airport and Gurgaon…These two stretches also provide connectivity between Noida via the DND flyway and Faridabad. Heavy traffic merges at NH-48, the Delhi-Gurgaon highway. So, traffic jams are witnessed daily,' said a senior official from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). Officials said that the corridor will start from AIIMS and connect to Nelson Mandela Marg in Vasant Kunj via Ring Road. At Nelson Mandela Marg, the Centre is planning to construct a 5-km-long tunnel, which will connect the airport and Dwarka Expressway. 'This corridor will be merged with a tunnel, and another corridor will be constructed towards Gurgaon and Faridabad Road,' said a senior NHAI official, adding, 'The elevated corridor from AIIMS to Nadira Marg, further connecting to Mehrauli-Gurgaon Road and Gurgaon-Faridabad Road, will act as a parallel corridor between Delhi and Gurgaon.' The projects, to be executed by the NHAI, were discussed in a meeting between Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, and L-G Vinai Kumar Saxena last week. . The Inner Ring road that connects Noida via Ashram, DND flyway and the Outer Ring Road from Kalindi Kunj is surrounded by upscale areas like Lajpat Nagar, Maharani Bagh, Moolchand, South Extension, Nizamuddin, Greater Kailash, Panchsheel Enclave, Pamposh Enclave, Chirag Dilli, Nehru Place, CR Park and is largely used by residents of South Delhi. The upcoming corridor will be a major relief to residents, officials said. Officials said the estimated cost of this project is Rs 5,000 crore, but it will be finalised after a feasibility study is done. 'Once the feasibility study is done, the existing flyovers, underpasses and metro lines will also be studied. Then a decision will be taken to go for a complete elevated corridor or there will be elevated plus underground…These are routine processes done during any upcoming new project,' said the official. In 2019, the Public Works Department in Delhi had submitted a proposal for the bypass project. While the PWD was the executing agency, the funding was to be done by the Centre. The AIIMS-Mahipalpur elevated corridor project, however, did not take off due to the pandemic. The project is now on track, according to officials. 'Currently, the bids for preparation of Detailed Project Report (DPR) have been invited, which are to be received by June 27,' said officials. This is one of the six other major upcoming infrastructure projects being planned by the Central government to decongest Delhi and improve connectivity between Delhi and neighbouring cities in NCR. Under these mega projects, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways also has a plan to construct an interchange at Kalindi Kunj intersection of Delhi-Noida Road and Agra Canal Road near Okhla Barrage. The 0.5 km stretch is expected to cost Rs 500 crore. Officials said that a feasibility study was conducted by PWD in Uttar Pradesh through the Central Road Research Institute (CRRI) in November 2022 to address the traffic problems faced by the daily commuters using the Kalindi Kunj metro station and those travelling between Delhi, Noida, and Faridabad. 'In its report, CRRI recommended the construction of an interchange and flyovers at the Kalindi Kunj intersection to eliminate the conflict of traffic. During the recent meeting, it has been emphasised to address severe traffic congestion at Kalindi Kunj, and it was suggested to NHAI to prepare a DPR for an interchange at Okhla Barrage, considering CRRI's report and the urgency of immediate remedial action,' said the officials.. Bids for preparing the DPR for this project have been invited and are expected to be received by June 23.

SP Group offers $3.4 billion NCDs to HNI investors amid market volatility
Mumbai: Wealth managers are offering Shapoorji Pallonji Group's latest $3.4 billion (₹28,500 crore) non-convertible debentures to high-net-worth individuals, but only to those willing to invest a minimum of ₹10 crore in the secondary market. ADVERTISEMENT A small portion of the debentures, originally placed with institutional investors at a yield of 19.75%, is being sold down to wealthy clients at yields of 18.0-18.5%, allowing distributors to pocket a spread of up to 175 basis points (1.75 percentage point). During group firm Goswami Infratech's ₹14,300 crore fundraising in 2023, the bonds saw secondary market volatility as smaller HNIs flipped their positions when market sentiment turned. At one point, the debentures originally issued at a yield of 18.75% were trading at as high as 22%, following a covenant breach and a fall in perception, even before any material credit deterioration. The latest NCD offering, being an unrated and unlisted tranche, comes with much less disclosure, information and compliance obligations compared to the previous, exchange-listed tranches."Last time, a lot of HNIs panicked and exited too quickly," said a wealth manager. "It spooked the market and distorted the credit story. This time, they have raised the bar to ₹10 crore, and they are filtering for patient capital."The group has also avoided a wide domestic HNI distribution this time. Wealth managers say the allocations to Indian individuals are a fraction of the ₹28,500 crore transaction. ADVERTISEMENT Experts have been concerned over affluent and mass-affluent segments getting into credit often without a full understanding of the risks. "Private credit is not for everyone," said Nachiket Naik, head of private credit Axis Asset Management. "Family offices come through funds that do deep diligence. But direct HNI participation, especially via digital platforms, is a different beast." Cases like BluSmart, an early-stage mobility platform that raised funds from HNIs via listed NCDs, have led to caution among investors. (You can now subscribe to our ETMarkets WhatsApp channel)
