Each business decision taken by management impacts the profitability and survival of business, said Mr. Jyoti Prakash Gadia, Managing Director, Resurgent India Limited at the Seminar on Revival Strategies & Making Money from Stressed Assets organised by PHDCCI. He shared that taking orders at lower margins to justify working capital; operating with no margin for error; noncompliance; Poor planning and unable to absorb even minor shocks can lead to stress in organisations. He explained the early signs of stress including Cash flow from operations not materializing; small delays in paying creditors or statutory dues and managing non- fund limits indicate stress. He said that purchasing Stressed Assets is a way for investors and businesses to acquire valuable distressed assets at a throw away price. He explained the different ways of investing including Long term equity commitment ensuring the success of venture; Debt assignment with growth plan for sustainability and leveraging strategic potential; Structured approach to realise maximum potential and follow dynamic approach for long term success
Mr. Harak C. Banthia, Chief Financial Officer, HMEL shared experience of company going into NCLT.
