Friends,
We believe that AGAL will report good results for Dec quarter 2009.
If this works out there are strong possibilities that the share price of AGAL may increase short to medium term.
This has happened to the share prices for other plantation companies as well. (Wata, Kota, KAGL, ETC...)
Thanks
