An investment of Rs 1 lakh in this stock last year would have turned to Rs 5 lakh today!

Genesys International Corporation Ltd, a provider of advanced mapping, survey and geospatial services, has given its investors multibagger returns in the last 1 year.

Why was the funding raised?

Owing to the new geospatial policy launched by PM Modi, the company set up a state-of-the-art 3D mapping platform. The proceeds from the funding shall be used for the development of its mapping capability and to bolster its Content as a Service platform.

The company intends to use the proceeds from the funding to target sectors such as utilities, big tech, smart cities, and digital & e-commerce.

While the shares of Genesys International have given multibagger returns in the last one year, the majority of this leap was concentrated in the last 6 months. The stock was re-rated when ace investor Ashish Kacholia bought shares of Genesys International in the December quarter. Moreover, the demand for geospatial services is on the rise, and there are not many players in this space, giving Genesys International an edge.
