Fundamental Analysis Of Maharashtra Seamless Ltd.
General Introduction:
Maharashtra Seamless Ltd. (MSL), incorporated on May 10, 1988, was established to address the significant demand-supply gap in India’s seamless pipe market, which was primarily met through imports. The company set up its first plant in 1991 at Nagothane, Maharashtra, utilizing CPE technology from Mannesmann Demag Hutten Technik GmbH, Germany. The plant, with an initial investment of Rs. 69 crores, was commissioned in February 1992, producing 150,000 TPA of Carbon & Alloy Steel Seamless Pipes. The plant’s quality has been recognized by Indian Boiler Regulation (IBR) and the American Petroleum Institute (API).
MSL later expanded its production capacity using PLUG MILL technology, enabling the manufacture of large seamless pipes up to 20 inches in diameter, increasing total capacity to 350,000 TPA. The company also ventured into the ERW pipe category in 2000, establishing a plant in Raigad, Maharashtra, with a capacity of 200,000 TPA. MSL further enhanced its capabilities by commissioning a coated line pipe facility in 2006 and acquiring a seamless plant from Romania, which was relocated to Maharashtra in 2012.
Additionally, MSL diversified into renewable energy, commissioning a 7 MW wind power project in 2001 and expanding its solar power capacity to 33 MW by 2017.

FAQs
What is Intrinsic Value?
Ans: When someone invests in an asset, he does so in order to earn money from the business. The investor gets paid over a period of time as long as he is invested in the asset. Now intrinsic value is the present value of all such future cash flows generated by the asset. So logically one should not invest in any asset if the ask price is more than the intrinsic value of the asset.
How is Intrinsic Value of a company calculated?
Ans: For calculating the intrinsic value of a company all its future cash flows are extrapolated based on the past performance of the company, assumptions about the future growth of the company and its terminal value. Once all these are calculated these are brought to the present date based on appropriate discounting rate. The sum of all these gives the intrinsic value of the company. It may be more or less than the market capitalization of the company. If it is more than the market capitalization of the company then the company is said to be undervalued and is a good bet as a long-term investment and vice versa.
How is Intrinsic Value of a share calculated?
Ans: Once intrinsic value of a company is calculated as explained above, it is divided by the total number of outstanding shares of the company. This gives the intrinsic value of a share.
What is Discounted Cash Flow?
Ans: When we have cash flows that are spread over a period of time then Discounted Cash Flow method is used to calculate present value of all such cash flows. The present value depends on the discounting rate used. Usually 30 year Government bond yield rate(risk free rate of return) is used as the discounting rate.
