Welspun Corp spurted 6% to Rs 165 per share after the company secured multiple orders of approximately 164 kilo metric tonnes (KMT).
Welspun Corp on Tuesday announced that the company has received multiple orders of approximately 164 KMT valuing close to Rs 17.3 bn.
These orders include, reinstatement of an offshore sour pipes supply contract (270 km / 87 KMT) in Australia for the Barossa Offshore Development project.
Welspun Corp received this order last year, and intimated the bourses on 11 March 2020.
However, the same was subsequently deferred by the customer due to delay in Final Investment Decision (FID) as announced on 27 March 2020.
After the recent FID of the project, Welspun stated that the customer has given a go-ahead to Welspun for the execution of the contract.
The majority of the orders mentioned above will be executed from Welspun's facilities in India.
In its regulatory filing, Welspun said,
With these orders, the company's order book stands at 525 KMT valued at approximately Rs 48 bn, after considering execution up to May 2021.
Two days back, Welspun Corp said that American Petroleum Institute (API), USA has granted license to manufacture SAWH pipes as per API specification 5L and to apply API monogram on the pipes from its Jamunia, Raisen, Madhya Pradesh facility with effect from 26 May 2021.
The facility is also certified for its quality management system as per API Specification Q1 compliance.
This would help the company to cater to critical needs of the Indian oil & gas market by supplying coated API pipes as this facility also has a modern 3LPE/DFBE/FBE coating facility attached to the pipe mill.
They intend to facilitate oil & gas pipeline network development and reach the remote corners of the country towards east, north east and south India from this modern set up.
JSW Steel entered into an agreement to acquire the high-grade steel plates and coil business of Welspun group for Rs 8.5 bn.
According to a leading financial daily, JSW Steel announced that a further amount of Rs 5 bn has been paid to Welspun Corp on 8 June 2021 towards consideration for acquisition of its PCMD division.
Further, the company also paid Rs 1.5 bn to Welspun Corp on 8 June 2021 for purchase of a parcel of land pertaining to PCMD business.
An amount of Rs 2.3 bn has already been received by the company as on 30 April 2021.
For the year ending March 2020 Welspun Corp declared an equity dividend of 210% amounting to Rs 10.5 per share.
At the current share price of Rs 165 apiece this results in a dividend yield of 6.6%.
