The full read
Comfort Securities bought its way to a 7.49% stake in Three M Paper Boards. A net 5,20,000 shares acquired in the open market between April and June pushed the holding past the 5% mandatory disclosure line. The company is a nano-cap with a ₹50 crore market cap generating over ₹300 crore in annual revenue. For a financial institution to deploy capital this way in such a small company is a clear signal. Crossing the regulatory threshold transforms a trade into a declared position. It's a bet on a company with a market cap smaller than its own quarterly revenue.
