Let us take a look at these stocks one at a time-

The quarterly Revenue rose 9.3% YoY to Rs 10,658.6 Crores. However, the overall revenue growth of the company has been falling for quite some time now and can’t be relied upon. This merger between Vodafone and Idea did help both companies survive the Reliance-JIO wave that came. The stock’s highest price has been Rs. 123.
2. Suumaya Corporation Ltd
Suumaya Corporation was founded in 1985, and its IPO came in 2021.

Their products also include threads, yarns and fabrics.
The Debt to Equity Ratio of 0.4 is less than 1, which is in an ideal spot and hence is a positive sign. The Annual Revenue rose 183.3%, in the last year to Rs 3,364 Crores. Alongside this, the industry average was just 22.3%. Outperforming the industry average being a penny stock is a huge plus for the stock.
3. Alankit Ltd

They have PAN card centres, Fastag Services, GST Suvidha Providers and also offer distribution of cards like voter IDs, Aadhar Cards and Health Cards.

The Quarterly Revenue of Alankit Ltd rose by 242.2% to Rs 109.3 Crores, the sector average of the same was just 8.4% hence making a great difference.

Under DII, ICICI Bank holds a 10% stake in the company. In the previous year, the Revenue of the company increased by 41.7%, to Rs 4,859.6 Crores, the industry average is 23%. The volume of trading of the stock has been active in the recent past and has made the stock volatile too.
5. Future Consumer Ltd
Future Consumer is involved in sourcing, manufacturing, branding, marketing and distribution of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), Food and Processed Food Products in Urban and Rural India. Previously the company was regulated by the Reserve Bank of India as a non-deposit-taking Non-Banking Financial Company.
The company at the present has a very high debt-to-equity ratio of 3.5, and the volumes being traded are also low making it tough to exit once money is put in.
However, the company gave out good revenue growth in the previous year with a 23.5% rise when the industry average was just 20%.
6. Suzlon Energy Limited
Suzlon Energy is involved in the business of designing, developing and manufacturing of wind turbine generators (WTGs) and related components of various capacities.

The subsidiary has a capacity of over 1.2 lakh MT annually.
Being a penny stock, the PE of the stock is obviously a lot lower than the industry standard of 49.5. The company’s PE itself stands at 4.1. The mutual fund holding of the stock also increased by 0.2% in the previous year.
7. Kore Foods Limited
Kore Foods Limited is engaged in the business of food processing.

8. Pae Limited

The company has managed to increase its annual net profit by more than 300% in the previous year to reach Rs. 12.2 Crores. A very low PE of 0.6 does indicate that the company maybe on the verge of making losses, however, in the previous year the stock price of the company has risen by 24%. The company has also taken up significant debts since FY21, and the interest coverage ratio of 0.1% does not show a very good image, making an investment a little risky.
9. Oscar Global Limited
Incorporated in 1990, Oscar Global Ltd is into the production and export of Leather Garments and their accessories. The main products of the company include Leather Jackets, Leather bags, Leather Belts, Leather Coats and Leather Pants.
The one major positive of the company is its Debt to Equity ratio is nil. The company is completely debt-free, making the investment a little less risky. The return on equity of the stock was 49.2%, higher than most stocks of its category. However, the company did have a loss in the recent quarter, the annual profit, on the other hand, had a different picture, and stood at almost 3 times its previous year’s numbers.
10. Shyamkamal Investments Ltd

They also perform the business of hire-purchase, leasing and financing lease operations of all kinds, purchasing, selling, hiring or letting on hire all kinds of plant and machinery and other types of equipment. The company is almost debt free and has increased activity in the previous months. The annual profit of the company was Rs. 0.2 Crore in the previous year. However, the promoters’ holding in the company is very less at just 2.59%, which may not be a very good sign.
Conclusion
Penny Stocks are cheap no doubt, but many investors choose to stay away from them since they are comparatively riskier and the information available about them is not much. They can give good returns, but since a lot of information about these stocks is not enough for decision-making or having confidence in them, they are less trusted in by investors. Hence, before you make an investment in such stocks, make sure that you do research well on these stocks and only then make an informed decision.
