Mumbai: The country's second largest real estate player, Unitech, surged by 4.18 per cent on the Bombay Stock Exchange in early trade on Monday after the company began the process to raise about Rs 2,772 crore through private placement of equity.

Shares of Unitech were quoted at Rs 85.80 on BSE in early trade, a gain of 4.18 per cent over the previous close. On the National Stock Exchange, the shares rose nearly 4 per cent to Rs 85.50.

The company on Friday last week decided to raise over Rs 2,772 crore after receiving robust response from private equity players. Earlier it had planned to raise Rs 1,300 crore through QIP route.

It has received demand worth over one billion dollar for the qualified institutional placement.

Unitech, which had raised Rs 1,621 crore in the second half of April through the QIP route at Rs 38.50 per share, launched the second round at Rs 81 per share.

After the completion of the QIP, the promoters' stake in the company is likely to come down to 36 per cent. However, their stake can increase to 48 per cent after converting warrants into equity share. Promoters hold 51 per cent stake in the company at present.

unitech in 08-9 had profit from other interst and profit from sale of inv in real estate projects. these were 132%of pbt and may not be repeated. nav is 25 per share and after first qip and full dilution of warrants comes to 30 , 67 b. based on mp of 85 and 2272m shares the value is 193 b , additin of 126 b. even assuming annual pat of 12 b which is itself opento question, it will take the company 10 years to come to its net value. this assumes no dividend in the 10 year period. this fact together with none to happy real estate in the foreseeable future and unitechs profits coming from asset sale which will definitely taper off makes it a very high risk share at the present rates and it is surprising how qip ARE INTERESTED IN INVESTING. I AM SURE THEY WILL REPENT IF INVEST NOW THERE ARE OTHER NEGATIVES LIKE A/R OVER 6 MONTHS RISING FASTER AND VIRTUALLY NO PROVISION IN BOOKS. GOOD LUCK TO QIP INVESTORS.
