In an interview with CNBC-TV18, SP Tulsian of sptulsian.com talks to investors about two of his multibagger picks - IL&FS Engineering and Hindustan Dorr Oliver.

Subsequent to that acquisition, the open offer came in at Rs 195. Everything is now in place. You have the investors with IL&FS holding 32% stake by that overseas investors from the Middle East.
The institutional holding is quite high leaving the public float at just 10%. As the one-time settlement happened, re-schedule of loans happened and the net debt in the books of the company on a consolidated basis is left at about Rs 850 crore. Their core business has been doing quite well with a topline of Rs 1,000 crore and the profitability has to improve.
