For beginners, it can seem like a good idea (and an exciting prospect) to buy a company that tells a good story to investors, even if it currently lacks a track record of revenue and profit. But the reality is that when a company loses money each year, for long enough, its investors will usually take their share of those losses. Loss making companies can act like a sponge for capital - so investors should be cautious that they're not throwing good money after bad.
If this kind of company isn't your style, you like companies that generate revenue, and even earn profits, then you may well be interested in Sheetal Cool Products (NSE:SCPL). Even if this company is fairly valued by the market, investors would agree that generating consistent profits will continue to provide Sheetal Cool Products with the means to add long-term value to shareholders.
