1. Opening Hook
When most legacy manufacturing companies talk about “transition,” they usually mean a PowerPoint makeover. HEG, however, decided to legally split itself, rename entities, and casually build an integrated greentech platform spanning anodes, batteries, solar, BESS, hydro, and even graphene. All while graphite electrodes keep throwing off cash like it’s still a supercycle.
The Composite Scheme of Arrangement is management’s way of saying: “One valuation doesn’t fit all.” Investors now get a clean graphite play and a separately listed greentech growth engine—assuming regulators, timelines, and execution gods cooperate.
Read on, because behind the jargon-heavy slides is a serious attempt to ride India’s energy transition with balance-sheet backing, not just buzzwords.
2. At a Glance
- Demerger announced – Conglomerate discount therapy in progress.
- 1:1 share issue – Mirror shareholding, zero mental math required.
- Hydro cash flows ~₹300+ cr/year – The boring part funding the exciting part.
- Anode capacity target 60 KTPA – Betting big on non-China supply gaps.
- BESS + Solar IPP push – Firm power is the new vanilla.
- ₹9,000 cr capex plan – Confidence high, cheques bigger.
