Issue Details / Capital History
The company is coming out with its Rights Issue (RI) of 19668019 equity shares of Rs. 10 each at par value to mobilize Rs. 19.67 cr. The RI opens for subscription on October 23, 2026, and will close on October 13, 2026. The company is offering RI in the ratio of 16 for 5 to its eligible stakeholders as of the record date of October 14, 2026. The company is asking for full payment on application for number of shares applied. Post allotment, RI shares will be listed on BSE. The company is spending Rs. 0.20 cr. for this RI process, from the net proceeds, Rs. 15.60 cr. for purchase/enhancement/product development of software and IT infrastructure, and Rs. 3.87 cr. For general corporate purposes.
The RI is solely lead managed by the company itself, and Purva Sharegistry (India) Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue.
Post-RI, company’s current paid-up equity capital of Rs. 6.15 cr. (6146256 equity shares) will stand enhanced to Rs. 25.81 cr. (25814275 shares). Based on the RI pricing, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 25.81 cr.
On the financial performance front, for the last two fiscals, the company has posted total revenue / net profit/ - (loss), of Rs. 0.19 cr. / Rs. 0.07 cr. (FY25), Rs. 0.23 cr. / Rs. – (0.13) cr. (FY26). For Q1 of FY26 ended on June 30, 2026, it earned a net profit of Rs. 0.52 cr. On a total revenue of Rs. 0.59 cr. The company posted erratic financial performance and its Q1 numbers appears as a window dressing to pave the way for RI. Though it is at par, based on its financial track record, it’s a risky bet. Its NAV stands at Rs. 4.05 against FV of Rs. 10 indicating carried forward losses.

The company has not paid any dividends for the last three years. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy, based on its financial performance and future prospects.

Conclusion
CCL is engaged in the manufacturing of thermal overload protectors. It posted erratic and minuscule performance for the reported periods. Its Q1 bumper performance appears to have been inflated to pave the way for RI. Its NAV stands at Rs. 4.05 per share indicating carried forward losses. Its equity capital jumps to over four times, that may pose its servicing issue. Though the offer is at par value, it is a high risk/low reward option, one may skip.
