Dear Sir,

After consecutive 2 bad days in this week, today SENSEX has recovered 250 points. It has been a roller costar ride for all the investors in Global share markets. Markets are falling down. In this market fundamentally strong companies are also hit badly in recent Global turmoil. As per current scenario this is the best time to invest in share markets.

There are some companies that have outstanding records and are performing very well. One such company called Gujarat NRE Coke, a cocking coal and Met coal producing company. The company has always posted excellent results. In this Sep Q2 Total Income has shown a jump of 4.86 times from Rs.102.07 crores to Rs.496.05 crores, resulting in a surge of 8.19 times in the Net Profit, from Rs.12.55 crores to Rs.102.75 crores. We suggest you buy Gujarat NRE coke on every decline.

The primary activity of the company is manufacturing low ash metallurgical coke (LAMC). It is the largest non-captive manufacturer of low ash metallurgical coke in India. Coke is the basic raw material for production of Steel.

Gujarat NRE Coke, the country's largest independent producer of met coke, posted results that not only stood out amidst the current pall of gloom, but also refurbished the company's image as an achiever, a perennial performer. In the current half year, the company has continued with its dream run and has posted substantially improved figures on all counts - Total Income has gone up by 3.48 times from Rs.250.96 crores in the six months ended 30.09.07 to Rs.873.69 crores in 30.09.08, while the Net Profit after Tax has moved up from Rs.55.37 crores to Rs.197.15 crores, posting a jump of 3.56 times.


On a quarterly basis, the results are even more impressive: quarter on quarter, the Total Income has shown a jump of 4.86 times from Rs.102.07 crores to Rs.496.05 crores, resulting in a surge of 8.19 times in the Net Profit, from Rs.12.55 crores to Rs.102.75 crores.

The company's mining operations in Australia are doing extremely well with one million tons of premium hard coking coal expected to be shipped to India in the current fiscal. It is also developing its mines in Australia to further increase its production to seven million tons within the next four years. Gujarat NRE Coke is also in the process of setting up co-generation facilities in all its plants which will provide the company with 60 MW of free power.

The demand for cooking coal will keep on rising in future. Gujarat NRE has three coke making units in India - Khambhalia and Bhachau in Gujarat and at Dharwad in Karnataka - which produce close to one million tones of met coke.

Being the biggest player in Coke production Gujarat NRE coke proved to be the best performing company. The stock is trading at attractive levels. In this falling market we suggest you to buy this stock on every decline.
