Investment Thesis
Alirox Abrasives Limited is one of India's oldest industrial companies with an 80-year history tracing back to The Shevaroy Bauxite Products Company. However, the extremely low share price of ₹0.1 and absence of public information strongly suggest the company is dormant or financially distressed. This is a highly speculative, near-zero value unlisted security. Investors should treat this as a deep distressed/speculative play and verify operational status through MCA and Registrar of Companies filings before any engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Alirox Abrasives
Alirox Abrasives Limited is one of India's oldest industrial companies, incorporated on 13 May 1944 — predating India's independence. Headquartered at Scindia House, New Delhi, the company is engaged in the abrasives business, manufacturing or trading coated and bonded abrasives used in industrial grinding, polishing, and surface finishing applications. Abrasives are a critical industrial material used across metalworking, automotive manufacturing, construction, and fabrication industries for surface preparation, material removal, and finishing operations. The global abrasives market is approximately $12 billion, with India being a growing market driven by automotive, engineering, and construction sectors. Alirox Abrasives was established during the British colonial period when India had limited industrial manufacturing. The company's 80+ year history makes it one of the few surviving pre-Independence industrial enterprises in India — a remarkable distinction. Based at Scindia House in New Delhi's Connaught Place area, the company has a prestigious commercial address. Financial data shows very modest current revenues (approximately Rs 7.49 million or Rs 0.75 Crore) despite a large net worth of Rs 61.03 Crore — suggesting the company may be primarily holding assets rather than active trading operations. The authorised capital of Rs 25 Crore further confirms the company's historical scale that has not been matched in recent operations. The significant gap between net worth (Rs 61 Crore) and revenues (Rs 0.75 Crore) indicates the company likely holds substantial real estate or investment assets dating from its more active operational periods.

The ₹0.1 share price raises serious questions about whether the company is actively operating or has effectively ceased meaningful business activities.
Very low share price indicates possible accumulated losses, debt distress, or inadequate capitalization to sustain manufacturing operations.
The Indian abrasives market is dominated by established players such as Grindwell Norton, Carborundum Universal, and international brands, leaving little room for a small, potentially dormant competitor.
An 80-year-old company in the abrasives sector risks technological obsolescence without continued investment in modern manufacturing processes.
Minimal public disclosures and absence of a confirmed website make independent verification of company status extremely difficult.
