A unique opportunity to earn handsome returns from a green initiative

A unique Business Strategy

SAPCL has devised an innovative business strategy to earn good returns for its shareholders through investment in green initiatives. The strategy hings on the large and growing demand for raw materials in a variety of industries like paper, pharmaceuticals and food products, which can be met only through large-scale plantation. By identifying develop-able waste lands and turning them into sources of raw materials for various industries, SAPCL gives its shareholders an opportunity to profit from the agri-business sector, make long term investment in real estate, and connect with nature in a meaningful and sustainable way.

A Clear Proposal

In its drive to generate revenue from waste land in a demarcated area, SAPCL can accept, tendering of waste land by its shareholders for cultivation/ use by SAPCL. As SAPCL is a Producer Company, any individuals meeting the criteria of membership can join the family of existing shareholders, through purchase of agriculture land followed by subscription to Company's shares. The minimums unit of land (in a designated, demarcated area) to be bought by an investor is 2 acres. Along with subscription to share of SAPCL, @520 shares per acre of land, the investor has to hand over possession of the land and cultivation right thereon to SAPCL as per the Articles of the company. SAPCL share with face value of Rs. 10 per share will be offered at premium prevailing at the time of purchase. Lands purchase by the shareholder have to be delivered to SAPCL for the purpose of integrated cultivation and sale of agri- produce required by industries and large horticulture buyers. Using its agriculture/ horticulture know how and proven marketing acumen, SAPCL will work to get maximum returns from every inch of land.

A combination of benefits

SAPCL's business strategy provides a combination of benefits to its shareholders: capital appreciation from a precious assets (land) + dividend yields from a growing industry segment (agri- business)+ satisfaction of participating in a green venture (conversion of wasteland onto natural assets). Net profits derived from integrated agri- business operations on shareholders' land are eligible for distribution as dividend amongst all shareholders, on the basis of their contribution (per acre of land delivered to the company). Capital appreciation from land can be accumulated and reaped by shareholders after a lock - in period of 15 years. In case of an emergency, a shareholder can exit after 5 year, subject to compliance of conditions in the Articles of the company.

A Distinct Advantage

SAPCL's shareholders get the clear advantage of participating in a business venture promoted and managed by professionals with rich expertise in agriculture, financial planning, project management and marketing. With sound understanding of the regulatory framework, SAPLC's promoters have created a company structure that is tax- efficient and meets all legal compliance's. All land purchased are with clear and marketable title. All cultivation efforts done on purchased lands are over 320 acres of agriculture land in Gaganbawada, Kolhapur district, Maharashtra. Intensive tree- plantation has been done on this land, with tie - up for sale of mature trees to a leading paper manufacturing company in the country. Returns from this venture are expected to give dividend yield to SAPCL shareholders from FY 2015-2016.
