    Ghalemdi Hydro Limited Concludes 200% Right Share Issuance for Chujung Khola Project Investment


    Ghalemdi Hydro Limited (GHL) is set to conclude its issuance of right shares to shareholders at a 1:2 ratio starting from the 16th of Poush. The right shares, offered at a rate of 200%, were made available for subscription from the 10th of Mangsir and will remain open until the 16th of Poush, 2080, closing at the end of banking hours.

    In a bid to raise funds, Ghalemdi Hydro Limited aimed to generate Rs. 1.1 Arba by issuing 11,000,000 units of right shares to its existing shareholders at the 200% rate. The company’s strategic decision to offer these right shares is linked to its plan to invest a minimum of 51% of shares in the Chujung Khola hydropower project (63 M.W. PRoR) located in Sankhuwasabha and promoted by Shangrila Urja Pvt. Ltd.

    As of now, Ghalemdi Hydro Limited holds a paid-up capital of Rs. 55 Crores. Upon the successful adjustment of the proposed right shares totaling 1.10 crore units, the company’s paid-up capital is expected to rise to Rs. 1.65 Arba.

    To oversee this right share issuance, Muktinath Capital Limited has been appointed as the issue manager. The book closure date was on Kartik 03, meaning that only shareholders who maintained their holdings before that date are eligible to apply for the rights offering.

    Finance Minister Optimistic About 6% Economic Growth and Library Society’s Challenges Addressed at Annual Meeting


    Finance Minister Dr. Prakash Sharan Mahat expressed optimism about achieving a 6% economic growth rate, attributing it to the gradual recovery of the country’s economy. Speaking at the 20th annual general meeting of the Kathmandu Valley Public Library Society at Bhrikutimandap, Minister Mahat highlighted positive signs such as the increasing number of tourists, rising remittances, growing share prices, enhanced revenue, and overall economic activities.

    Minister Mahat underscored the successful resolution of budget anomalies through the implementation of a budget allocation system based on guaranteed resources in multi-year projects. He also noted a decline in bank interest rates, signaling a positive economic trend. The Finance Minister credited the improvement in the budget system for curbing the tendency to exceed budget allocations outlined in the budget Red Book.

    Dr. Narayan Khadka, the President of the Society, emphasized the significance of prioritizing libraries as hubs of knowledge, information, and national history. However, he expressed concerns about reduced government funding, the absence of a dedicated land plot for the library building, and increased rent imposed by the Social Welfare Council.

    During the event, Mahesh Agrawal and Tirtha Raj Onta were honored by the Society. The library, established in 2003, attracts more than 30,000 visitors annually and has 2,400 annual members. The Society has managed the library since 2005, amassing 37,614 donated books and acquiring 4,351 books through purchases.

    In a collaborative effort, Prof. Dr. Bhagawat Dhakal, Chief of Balmeeki Vidyapeeth, proposed allocating land to jointly construct the library building, addressing the budget constraints faced by the Vidyapeeth.
