BCL Industries Ltd

- For FY 25, BCL Industries plans a capex of about INR 140 crores mainly for a 75 KLPD biodiesel plant and a new paddy straw-based power plant. - Out of this, approximately INR 90 crores is expected to be raised through debt, while the rest will come from internal accruals. - The company is also phasing out its edible oil business, which will reduce working capital by INR 90 crores, somewhat offsetting new debt. - There was no mention of any equity fundraising in the call. - Debt retirement is targeted by 2030, but could happen sooner if profitability remains strong and capex is low. - The company aims to maintain interest subvention benefits (from NABARD) and prefers to manage debt optimally for cost reasons. In summary, near-term fundraising will involve raising around INR 90 crores debt primarily to fund biodiesel and power plant expansions; no equity raise indicated.
