Fy 07 salesd would be Rs 4k crores with an EPS of between Rs 55 - Rs 60. I think that a better way to see the business would be in terms of the businessses they have been able to create insurance, real estate management, JV's with severeal partners etc. This stock has always looked pricey and that is something that all good stocks reflect unless we get in very early.

Should one also look at Liberty Shoes? Its prospects will have some linkage with that of Pantaloon and is currently available at reasonable valuations due to strike at its factory.

Yes, Liberty seems a good bet.SHoes as a category is expected to grow and the best part of their stores would be that they shall stock all brands ranging from Nike to Reebok, soa  customer need not go anywhere.

It's inconclusive but a good read on experiences of mystery shoppers at various malls across the country.

Reliance Retail entry may not hurt Pantaloon.Today relatives visiting Banangalore reported huge Sunday crowd at newly opened (have they,really)Big Bazaar.The pie is large and Pantaloon has definitely carved a slice for themselves in the "great Indian middleclass"mind.

cash flow and margins have been negative of late for pants have they taken measures to rectify this.do es the future group have that type of cash to take on reliance and the other biggies of the worldand at fii holding locked at 28% where do yu see buying coming from also if  pants wants to raise cash it can only be thru a rights issue which means equity dilution and is there a stock split rs2 in the offing

1) Pantaloon is operating cash flow negative since it was at Rs 50
2) FII limit locked - TV 18 was limit locked from Rs 180. has been a 5 bagger since so if results are on track people will buy and these are relatively smaller capitalized companies so we do not BIG money to move the stock. Our "desi" funds could do it.
3) They have already planned for raising Rs 1000 crore through stake sale. The stake sale to ICICI ventures and Kotak PE exhibits confidence as these two are the better known names in the PE market. Bala Deshpande the CEO at ICICI Ventures is known for identifying small companies and her contribution as PE just adds to the confidence.
