My Thoughts:

Fineotex looks like a multibagger company and good from an investing point of view. The company’s CEO Surendrakumar Tibrewala is the largest shareholder. According to me, I think this is a good sign when insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. But I have very little knowledge regarding this.

One of my doubts is- Debtors’ days are going up. I believe this might be because its major clients are textile manufacturers, which are larger players than the company is. As a result, the company is usually in a weaker negotiating position over its customers. Therefore, the company seems to be facing challenges in collecting the money from its customers in time.

It is a request to you all to put all your thoughts and knowledge about this company.

This is my very first post here, I hope all mistakes can be ignored.

And, I would also like to know any of your suggestions.
