I don’t think CARB would be classified as a mistake. Sure they are going thru a rough patch currently but consider this:
1. Cheapest source of CO2
2. They are also the most expensive on the sell side. To get back market share they need to reduce their prices but this company usually hates price wars
3. They have ZERO DEBT
4. Baloo bought these shares way back before BOCs offer. So he must have recouped his investment several times over.
5. They need to improve their investment income. Since this company is cash rich, it usually invests in NSE mainly and now bonds. Decisions to buy shares from what I have heard is done in-house and sometimes leads to poor buys eg NBK. They need a CIO with experience here
