🎭 Previously on “As the BSE Turns”…
Once upon a time (okay, 1992), a textile company called Overseas Synthetics was born. By 2019, it was basically a sleepy relic—until one Mr. Vijay N. Dhawangale stepped in and said, “Let’s not sell cloth anymore. Let’s save lives.” Enter: corporate makeover.
The company got a new name (One Global Service Provider), a new identity (healthcare!), and by 2025, a new obsession: merging with a private diagnostics player called Plus Care. Plot twist: it wasn’t just a merger—it was a reverse merger. Think of it as Plus Care jumping into a listed company’s body like it’s a Bollywood body-swap movie.
🎬 The Real Story – No Boardroom Buzzwords, Just Facts (and Fun)
💉 Who is Plus Care?
An unlisted diagnostics firm from Maharashtra with fancy NABL-accredited labs and government healthcare projects under its belt. Started in 2018, wanted to scale big, but IPOs are expensive and boring.
👔 Who is One Global?
Formerly a textile firm, now a healthcare cosplayer with a BSE listing. Perfect vehicle for a reverse merger.
💍 The Merger Proposal: A Reverse Wedding
In Feb 2023, One Global said, “We’ll marry you, Plus Care—but no cash, only shares.” They agreed to issue:
1,202 shares of One Global for every 1 share of Plus Care.
Why such a huge number? Because Plus Care had only ~10,000 shares. So they ended up issuing 1.24 crore fresh shares to the Plus Care gang.
End Result: Plus Care became the controlling shareholder of One Global. It’s like moving into someone’s house and then owning 65% of it by dinner time.
🧾 The Legal Checklist (because India loves its paperwork)
- ✅ Board nod: Both boards approved the scheme by March 2023.
- ✅ SEBI & BSE blessings: No objections. (Translation: “We saw nothing wrong, carry on.”)
- ✅ NCLT Showdown: March 2024 – Tribunal approved the plan but said “hold shareholder and creditor meetings just to be polite.”
- ✅ Meetings Held: May 9, 2024 – Creditors and shareholders gave their thumbs up on Zoom.
- ✅ Final Order: NCLT Mumbai approved the whole shaadi by April 2025.
- ✅ Share Allotment: 4 July 2025 – The shares were officially handed over. Plus Care now lives inside One Global’s body.
🧠 Why Did This Even Happen?
Official Version:
“To create a bigger, stronger healthcare platform and maximize shareholder value.”
Real Version:
- Plus Care got public market access without the IPO headache.
- One Global got a real business to justify its stock price.
- The market got a fresh narrative: Healthcare turnaround story!
📉 Stock Drama 101
- 2020: Stock was at ₹1.72 — cheaper than a samosa.
- 2025: Touched ₹407 — more expensive than your Netflix plan.
- After merger shares were issued? Fell to ~₹240. Why? Because dilution is real, folks.
👑 Who Controls the Throne Now?
- AVD Trust (linked to old promoter Vijay Dhawangale) got gifted 14.5% stake just before merger closed.
- Plus Care founders (via the newly issued shares) now own the lion’s share—over 60%.
- Together: The diagnostics mafia runs the show now.
💰 Financial Flex Time
- Deal valued Plus Care at ₹42 crore.
- Post-merger One Global market cap: ₹477 crore (mid-2025).
- One Global’s Q4 FY25 Profit: ₹11 crore. Translation: “Hey look, real money!”
Also, they gave out a dividend. Which in smallcap land is like spotting a unicorn.
🎤 Final Thoughts – Drama. Strategy. Transformation.
This isn’t just a merger. It’s a Netflix-worthy corporate glow-up. A struggling old textile firm gave a piggyback ride to a private diagnostics company, which then took over the wheel and made it a legit healthcare player. Everyone got what they wanted:
- Plus Care: Listing + control
- One Global shareholders: A real business
- SEBI & BSE: No rule-breaking detected
- Stock Market: A new midcap “healthcare” play
