Balu Forge Industries has filed Monitoring Agency Reports (by Infomerics Valuation and Rating) covering two preferential issues for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, with zero deviation from stated objects. The larger issue of Rs. 496.80 crore (45 lakh equity shares at Rs. 360 each + 93 lakh warrants at Rs. 360 each) has received Rs. 245.70 crore so far, of which Rs. 64.23 crore was deployed in Q4 FY25 towards working capital (Rs. 14.61 cr) and general corporate purposes (Rs. 49.62 cr), with the plant & machinery allocation (Rs. 189 cr) fully received but unutilized in Q4. The smaller issue of Rs. 137.70 crore (25 lakh shares + 50 lakh warrants at Rs. 183.60) saw 36.75 lakh warrants converted into equity shares, with Rs. 16 crore deployed in Q4 FY25 and Rs. 2.25 crore unutilized, parked in an Axis Bank account. Balance proceeds of Rs. 251.10 crore and Rs. 18.25 crore from the two issues are yet to be received within the 18-month allotment window.
Clean quarterly report with no deviations signals disciplined capital use, but a large chunk of unexercised warrants (over 1 crore) means future equity dilution remains pending. The lack of any plant & machinery spend in Q4 may draw investor attention given it accounts for Rs. 189 crore of the planned deployment.
