Indage Vintners’ red wine is a decent offering; a pity one can’t say the same about the red on its balance sheet. Indage, India’s largest publicly listed wine company, hasn’t released its balance sheet for the year ending March 31, 2009, but media reports in September noted that Indage was collapsing under Rs. 450 crore of debt, due immediately. (A former employee who did not wish to be named estimates the debt at Rs. 500 crore.)

Indage is a very good buy at this level, look at its hidden asset and the future and growth in the wine industry. Every entrepreneur has problem at some time but the courage to come out of the problem is their challenge and definitely very soon Indage will be a blue chip to be added in everyones portfolio. I wish the management all the best and our full support by all the share holders of Indage.
