The rise and fall of the Sandesara brothers and Sterling Biotech

The mention of Sterling Biotech paints a picture of the promoters, who lived a good life until the banks followed them. Through good political communication, the Vadodara-based company ensured that the banks were in place. Nothing seems to stop them or how it happened. As the debtors tightened their grip, unpleasant questions arose. It has been more than two years since the company last blocked. With banks leaving big hairs with loans o more than Rs.000 million, the future of the company is uncertain.


It was in early 2004 when Sterling Biotech made its first mark. He got a gelatin business from Tata Rallis for $ 47. Ticket size or low buyer doesn’t care about anyone. If there was any interest, the reason was the involvement of Tata’s group, which saw a small technical perspective since its focus had clearly changed in medicine.


Gelatin did not fit well and Sterling bought it well. Now, there was a lot of volume and in time, the company grew to become the sixth largest producer of gelatin, a product based on the skin and bones of cattle. When converted to so-called drug-producing gelatin, it opens not only the doors of pills and pills but also chicken feed and immunity.

In its face, that kind of supremacy in the world order should have strengthened their existence. It has been a long time since two of our advertising brothers – Nitin and Chetankumar Sandesara – have moved to areas not connected with Africa’s basic oil exploration. According to media reports, this is where the fleeing activists are today. The uncontrollable desire of those who see it gets a debt of more than $ 8,000 – in FY18, it was Rs 368 crore and was red for claiming more than 1,000 crore.

The alarm bells rang in June 2019 when Andhra Bank began a default payment process. The organizers tried to redo their company, which was voted on and things are no different today. With the new development, the company has stabilized bids with a reserve amount of Rs 548 crore. The first round of the process is expected to end in early September. To make matters worse so far in selling the product, banks look at at least 90 percent of their hair.
At club level, Sterling has a debt of not more than Rs 15,000 crore. Those who know the promoters remember the time when they were traders in the machine tool business. “As soon as they approached the political party, money was on the way and nothing could stop them,” said one banker. The brothers were in love with movie stars and were very prominent on social media. The honeymoon is split when lenders come to call.

In a report released last November, Care Ratings stated that “the company is not working and prices are being withdrawn immediately. Estimates also take into account the ongoing delays in credit delivery by the company. ”
Now, the likes of Aurobindo Pharma, Cadila Healthcare, UPL, ACG and Grand Celsus are said to be interested in acquiring Sterling Biotech. As the contract returns to the drawing board, potential buyers will not easily dismantle their wallets. Any price increase, think dealm makers, will surprise you.
