Capex plans
Yes- EMS Limited has acquired a significant asset in the manufacturing sector, specifically a paper pulp project (Brijbihari Pulp and Paper Private Limited), with a 75% stake for around Rs. 50-60 crores.
- This acquisition is primarily for collateral purposes to support banking facilities and performance guarantees rather than operational expansion.
- Manufacturing (flex paper) is still ongoing in that property but is expected to be shut down by December, with future use focused on collateral to secure bank guarantees.
- The company is also exploring entry into the real estate sector as an EPC developer, involved in joint development projects, such as a Rs. 325 crore housing colony project with the RBI in Mumbai.
- EMS plans to invest in property assets to serve as collateral to increase banking limits and performance guarantees for project financing.
- No long-term borrowings currently; capex is mostly strategic asset acquisition to support financial structuring rather than heavy operational capex.
