Investing in stocks inevitably means buying into some companies that perform poorly. But the long term shareholders of BSEL Infrastructure Realty Limited (NSE:BSELINFRA) have had an unfortunate run in the last three years. So they might be feeling emotional about the 64% share price collapse, in that time. And the ride hasn't got any smoother in recent times over the last year, with the price 64% lower in that time. Shareholders have had an even rougher run lately, with the share price down 26% in the last 90 days. This could be related to the recent financial results - you can catch up on the most recent data by reading our company report.

We don't think BSEL Infrastructure Realty's revenue of ₹51,188,000 is enough to establish significant demand. You have to wonder why venture capitalists aren't funding it. So it seems that the investors focused more on what could be, than paying attention to the current revenues (or lack thereof). Investors will be hoping that BSEL Infrastructure Realty can make progress and gain better traction for the business, before it runs low on cash.
We think companies that have neither significant revenues nor profits are pretty high risk. You should be aware that there is always a chance that this sort of company will need to issue more shares to raise money to continue pursuing its business plan. While some companies like this go on to deliver on their plan, making good money for shareholders, many end in painful losses and eventual de-listing. Some BSEL Infrastructure Realty investors have already had a taste of the bitterness stocks like this can leave in the mouth.
Our data indicates that BSEL Infrastructure Realty had ₹3,941,839,484 more in total liabilities than it had cash, when it last reported in June 2019. That makes it extremely high risk, in our view. But with the share price diving 29% per year, over 3 years, it's probably fair to say that some shareholders no longer believe the company will succeed.
