Almondz Bags ₹142 Million Advisory Mandate—What’s Behind This Windfall?

Almondz Global Securities Ltd has just landed a fresh order worth about ₹142 million, marking one of its largest advisory wins in over two years. Filed with the BSE on June 16, the merchant banker said the mandate comes from a consortium led by a leading infrastructure player for financial due diligence and project financing guidance on a new highway concession.

 

Key Highlights

 

* Mandate Value: ~₹142 million over 12 months

* Client Profile: Consortium headed by a top-tier infrastructure firm

* Scope of Work: Project structuring, debt syndication support, and financial due diligence

* Delivery Timeline: Services to be completed by June 2026

* Revenue Impact: Expected to boost Almondz’s advisory revenues by up to 20% in FY 2025–26

 

This order follows a strategic push by Almondz to deepen its project advisory arm after restructuring its board last year. The company’s leadership believes such mandates not only bring near-term fee income but also open doors to larger infrastructure and public-sector consulting gigs.

 

Market watchers note that small to mid-tier merchant bankers like Almondz have struggled to replace lost broking revenues, so a big-ticket advisory win offers both credibility and cash flow stability. The stock jumped nearly 4% in early trade following the announcement, suggesting investors welcomed evidence of Almondz’s pivot toward higher-margin services.

 

With India’s infrastructure pipeline swelling—driven by government pushes on roads, ports, and urban transit—analysts say Almondz is well positioned to vie for more multi-crore mandates in the year ahead.
