Valuation
Financials (FY2023)
Investment Thesis
Satya Shyam Trading Limited (Bloomberg: SATYASHY:IN) is a Indore-based tea trader incorporated in 1984 and listed on MSEI since 2019. Revenue grew a strong 37.38% to ₹40.36 Cr in FY2023, but profitability fell 30.23% indicating cost/margin pressure in the commodity tea distribution business. The Bansal family holds ~39% as promoters, with 60% in public hands. A thin paid-up capital base of ₹3.19 Cr against ₹40+ Cr revenue is highly leveraged — typical for trading companies but leaves little margin for error.
