Balkrishna Paper Mills' Board, at its meeting on April 10, 2026, approved entering the real estate development and allied activities business as a new line, citing strategic diversification and better use of existing land assets. The Board also approved raising Inter Corporate Deposits (ICDs) from two group companies — S P Finance and Trading Ltd and Sanchna Trading and Finance Ltd — of up to Rs.25 Crore each for FY2026-27 and another Rs.25 Crore each for FY2027-28, totalling up to Rs.100 Crore at an interest rate of up to 12%. These ICDs are unsecured, one-year tenure, and will be used for working capital, debt repayment, and the new real estate business. The company disclosed that it has incurred losses in the preceding three years and has a negative net worth, making the ICDs qualify as material related party transactions that require shareholder approval.
This signals a strategic pivot from the core paper business into real estate, but the disclosure of three years of losses and negative net worth is a red flag for shareholders. Borrowings from related parties at up to 12% could raise governance concerns, and shareholder approval will be needed before the funds flow. The stock may see mixed reaction given the diversification opportunity weighed against the weak financial position.
