The Company has so far supplied more than 100,000 transformers to companies like Siemens, NTPC, State Electricity Boards,CESC, Hydel Power plants, GRIDCO, Ordinance factories etc.

The Company’s equity capital has increased from Rs.10.8 crores with 5.4 crore shares of Rs.2 FV to Rs. 17.1 crores with 8.55 crore shares, as the company has merged with Marson Transformers Limited with Marson Ltd. and allotted 3.15 crore shares to the promoters of Marson Transformers ltd.This has increased promoters stake in the company to 46.8% from just 16% a year back.

Market capitalization is just about Rs. 20 crores. The Company has its manufacturing units in almost 4 lakh sq ft area in proximity to port and is the largest manufacturer in Eastern region. It also has its own Transformer Oil Plant , Copper wire and Strip plant. Replacement cost of such a strategically located plant will not be less than Rs. 100 crores.With unsecured loans of about Rs. 10 crores the share at CMP of Rs. 2 appears to be undervalued, and can prove to be a multibagger.

Latest quarter EPS stands at Rs. 1.37 for Re.1 FV share. FDC is buying back its share at a price not exceeding Rs.40 from the market. This will help support its share price in these uncertain times. After the completion of buyback its equity will reduce to Rs.17 crores from the present Rs.19 crores, thus increasing the EPS from Rs. 1.37 to 1.5. At CMP of Rs. 30 the share is available at P/E of just about 5.
