Manbro Industries' board approved three investment deals worth about ₹42.4 crore in total. First, it will invest ₹25 crore to acquire a 51% stake in Shivam Pipe Industries, a partnership firm making steel pipes and tubes under the 'XTECH PIPES' brand with FY24 turnover of ₹60.2 crore, making it a subsidiary. Second, it will invest ₹7.5 crore for a 26% stake in K D Ecosystem, a vehicle scrappage firm with FY24 turnover of ₹20.98 crore, making it an associate. Third, it will acquire 99.90% of K D Infrastructures Pvt Ltd for ₹9.9 crore through fresh equity infusion, making it a subsidiary. All three are related-party transactions with promoter interest. The board also set up a new corporate office in Guwahati and moved its books of accounts there.
This is a major expansion move that transforms Manbro from a small entity into a group with subsidiaries in steel products, vehicle scrapping, and fabricated infrastructure. Shareholders should watch how the company funds the ₹42.4 crore outlay and whether these acquisitions deliver on the strong revenue growth seen at Shivam Pipe (turnover jumped from ₹3.77 cr in FY22 to ₹60.2 cr in FY24). Related-party nature of deals warrants close scrutiny.
