For the details of litigation proceedings, please refer the chapter titled “Outstanding Litigations and Material

Our Company has defaulted in making payment of interest and repayment of against cash credit facility of ₹100.00 lakhs
and term loan of ₹375.00 lakhs during the financial year ended 31 st March 2019 to Allahabad Bank. However, as of the
date of filing of this Prospectus, our Company has paid the entire aforesaid outstanding loan amount and interest due and
payable, if any, thereon to Allahabad Bank. This default was due to a miscommunication between the Allahabad Bank
and the Company regarding number of pending instalments towards the lending facilities. All dues were promptly cleared
by the Company on cognizance of this default, thereafter the Allahabad Bank issued a no dues certificate to the Company.
However, if the company defaults on any in any of the debt facility taken by the company, it may have an negative impact
on the financials position of the company.
3. Our business is dependent on our manufacturing facility, and we are subject to certain risks in our manufacturing
processes. Any unscheduled, unplanned or prolonged disruption of our manufacturing operations or shutdown
of our manufacturing facility may have a material adverse effect on our entire manufacturing operations and
consequently, our business, financial condition and our results of operations.
Our manufacturing operation is based out of facilities located at Rewari, Haryana. Our manufacturing operations and
consequently our business is dependent upon our ability to manage the manufacturing facility, which is subject to
operating risks, including those beyond our control, such as the breakdown and failure of equipment or industrial
accidents, lockdown, social unrest and natural disasters. In the event there are any disruptions at our manufacturing
facility, due to natural or man-made disasters, workforce disruptions, regulatory approval delays, fire, failure of
machinery, lack of access to assured supply of electrical power and water at reasonable costs or any significant social,
political or economic disturbances, could reduce our ability to meet the conditions of our contracts, manufacture our
products and adversely affect sales and revenues from operations in such period.
In addition to the loss as a result of such fire or industrial accident, any shutdown of our manufacturing facility could
result in us being unable to meet with our commitments, which will have an adverse effect on our business, results of
operation and financial condition. Further, any significant malfunction or breakdown of our machinery may entail
significant repair and maintenance costs and cause delays in our operations. In addition, we may be subject to
manufacturing disruptions due to contraventions of or non-compliance with the terms of various regulatory approvals
applicable to the manufacturing facility may also require us to cease or limit production until such non-compliance is
remedied to the satisfaction of relevant regulatory authorities.
29
We also cannot assure you that we will not experience work disruptions in the future resulting from any dispute with our
employees or other problems associated with our employees and the labour involved in our manufacturing facility, which
may hinder our regular operating activities and lead to disruptions in our operations, which could adversely affect our
business, prospects, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. In the event of prolonged interruptions in
the operations of our manufacturing facility, we may have to import various supplies and products or purchase them
locally in order to meet our obligations towards customers, which could affect our profitability, business and financial
condition.
4. Our business is dependent on the sale of our products to certain key customers. The loss of such customers, a
significant reduction in purchases by such customers, or a lack of commercial success of a particular component
of which we are a major supplier could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
We are dependent on certain key customers in the rail transportation sector. Our top 7 customers accounted for 97% and
96% of our revenues from sale of products on for Fiscals 2023 and 2022 respectively. As we are dependent on certain
key customers, the loss of such customers including as a result of a dispute with or disqualification by them may materially
affect our business and results of operations. The volume of sales to our customers may vary due to our customers’
attempts to manage their inventory, design changes and changes in our customers’ manufacturing strategy, which may
result in a decrease in demand or lack of commercial success of a particular product of which we are a major supplier.
Further, we do not generally have firm commitment or long-term purchase agreements with many of our key customers
and instead rely on purchase orders issued by our customers from time to time. As we are dependent on certain key
customers for a significant portion of our sales, the loss for any of the foregoing reasons of any one of our key customers,
if not replaced, may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
5. Our Registered Office is not owned by us and we partly own the land occupied by our manufacturing facility
from which we operate. The same are occupied by us on a rental basis. Disruption of our rights as lessee or
termination of the agreements with our lessor would adversely impact our operations and, consequently, our
business.
Our Registered Office premises is situated at B-144 Second Floor DDA Shed Phase-1, Okhla Industrial Area Phase-1
New Delhi, South Delhi, Delhi -110020, India and is not owned by us. It is taken on rental basis for a period of 11 months
commencing from July 01, 2023 and ending on May 31, 2024. Further, our Company has been occupying the factory
located at Rewari, Haryana on partially on rental basis through 4 rent deeds dated March 01, 2023, April 01, 2023, March
01, 2023 and July 01, 2023 for a period of 11 months each. We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue the
above arrangement on commercially acceptable / favourable terms in future. If we are required to vacate the current
premises, we would be required to make alternative arrangements for new office and other infrastructure, and we cannot
assure that the new arrangements will be on commercially acceptable / favourable terms. If we are required to relocate
our business operations during this period, we may suffer a disruption in our operations or have to pay higher charges,
which could have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
6. Availability of raw materials and fluctuation in raw material prices may have material adverse effects on our
operating profit.
The major raw materials required for our manufacturing process is steel. Due to market driven prices, we have no
influence on the prices at which we can buy these raw materials, thereby limiting our ability to pass on any increase in
raw material prices to our end customers. In addition, supply shortages or delays in deliveries of raw materials can also
result in increased costs. Raw materials are subject to supply disruptions and price volatility caused by various factors
such as the consumer demand, changes in government programs and regulatory sanctions etc. Our suppliers may be unable
to provide us with a sufficient quantity of our raw materials at a suitable price for us to meet the demand for our products.
In the event of any disruption in raw material supply in terms of requisite quantities and qualities, our production schedule
may also be adversely affected having an impact on our business operations. Such events may adversely affect our
reputation, business results of operations and reputation.
7. Our Company’s failure to maintain the quality standards of the products could adversely impact our business,
results of operations and financial condition.
The demand for our products depends on quality that we manufacture and market. Any failure of ours to maintain the
quality standards may affect our business. Although we have put in place strict quality control procedures, we cannot
assure that our products will always be able to satisfy our customer ‘s quality standards. Any negative publicity regarding
our Company, or products, including those arising from any deterioration in quality of our products or any other
unforeseen events could adversely affect our reputation, our operations and our results from operations
30
8. Our Company had not made any provision for payment of gratuity to our employees.
As per provision of Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 (Act) a scheme for the payment of gratuity to employees shall be made
upon applicability of the Act. Our company failed to determine the applicability of the act although the number of
employees of the company has crossed the threshold limit as mentioned in the Act. Since the company was not aware of
the applicability, the company failed to maintain any provisions for gratuity in any of the past financials’ years. Upon
identification of this non-compliance the same was rectified in the restated financials by taking actuarial valuation and
making appropriate provisions for gratuity. Although no complaint had been filed against our company for non-
compliance under any section of Act, and also no show cause notice in respect of the above has been received by the
Company till date. But if the company is found to be in default in complying with any of the provisions of this Payment
of Gratuity Act, 1972 or any rule or order made thereunder the employer shall be punishable with imprisonment for a
term which may extend to one year, or with fine which may extend to Twenty-Five thousand rupees, or with both. Upon
any such action the financial position of the company may be impacted.
9. Contracts entered into by our Company do not contain price escalation or variation clauses in respect of increases
in materials’ prices.
Our contracts do not contain price escalation or variation clauses that provide for reimbursement by the customer or
increases in the contract amount in the event of a variation in the prices of key materials required. Consequently, if the
prices of materials required increase during the execution period, our Company’s costs will increase, which will reduce
our profitability and may lead to cost overruns. This may occur due to a variety of reasons that may be outside our control,
including unanticipated changes in engineering design; increases in equipment costs, materials or manpower; delays
associated with the delivery of equipment and materials, unforeseen construction conditions and delays caused by local
weather. If we fail either to estimate costs accurately upon entry into a particular contract or to control costs during the
term of a contract and are unable to renegotiate the contract to obtain an escalation in a given contract price, any costs in
excess of the contract price will need to be absorbed by our Company and may affect its ability to sustain existing levels
of profitability or to obtain future contract awards. In addition, if our cost estimates are too high, our Company’s
competitive position or reputation could be adversely affected.
10. We may be unable to respond to changes in consumer demands and market trends in a timely manner.
Our success depends on our ability to identify, originate and define product and market trends, as well as to anticipate,
gauge and react to rapidly changing consumer demands in a timely manner. Our products must also appeal to a broad
range of customers whose preferences may vary. We cannot assure you that the demand for our products with end-
consumers will continue to grow or that we will be able to continue to meet rapidly changing consumer demands in the
future. If we misjudge the market or fail to anticipate a shift in consumer preferences, we may be faced with a reduction
in revenues. Any inability to respond to changes in consumer demands and market trends in a timely manner could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
11. We could become liable to customers, suffer adverse publicity and incur substantial costs as a result of defects in
our products, which in turn could adversely affect the value of our brand, and our sales could be diminished if
we are associated with negative publicity.
Any failure or defect in our products could result in a claim against us for damages, regardless of our responsibility for
such a failure or defect. Although we attempt to maintain quality standards, we cannot assure that all our products would
be of uniform quality, meet the customer standards which in turn could adversely affect the value of our brand, and our
sales could be diminished if we are associated with negative publicity. Also, our business is dependent on the trust our
customers have in the quality of our products. Any negative publicity regarding our company, brand, or products or any
other unforeseen events could affect our reputation and our results from operations.
12. Our Promoters plays a key role in our functioning and we heavily rely on their knowledge and experience in
operating our business and therefore, it is critical for our business that our promoters remain associated with us.
We benefit from our relationship with our Promoters and our success depends upon the continuing services of our
Promoter who have been responsible for the growth of our business and is closely involved in the overall strategy,
direction and management of our business. Our Promoters have been actively involved in the day-to-day operations and
management. Accordingly, our performance is heavily dependent upon the services of our Promoters. If our Promoters
are unable or unwilling to continue in his present position, we may not be able to replace them easily or at all. Our
Promoters, have over the years-built relations with various customers and other persons who are form part of our
stakeholders and are connected with us. The loss of their services could impair our ability to implement our strategy, and
our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.
31
13. We require a number of approvals, NOCs, licenses, registrations and permits in the ordinary course of our
business. Some of the approvals are required to be obtained by our Company and any failure or delay in obtaining
the same in a timely manner may adversely affect our operations.
We require several statutory and regulatory permits, licenses and approvals to operate our business. Many of these
approvals are granted for fixed periods of time and need renewal from time to time. Presently, we have applied for
updating licenses and approvals in the name of “Kalyani Cast-Tech Limited” from “Kalyani Cast-Tech Private Limited”.
Also, we are yet to receive and renew several approvals and licenses. Non-obtaining or non-renewal of the said permits
and licenses would adversely affect our Company’s operations, thereby having a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition. Further we require to keep already obtained valid key approvals such as Tax
Registrations, Shops and Establishment Act License, for running our operations in a smooth manner. Further, our
Company is unable to trace copy of its already obtained approval of Consent to Establish under the Water (Prevention &
Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 and the Air (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act, 1981.There can be no assurance that
the relevant authorities will issue any of such permits or approvals in the time-frame anticipated by us or at all. Some of
our permits, licenses and approvals are subject to several conditions and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be
able to continuously meet such conditions or be able to prove compliance with such conditions to the statutory authorities,
which may lead to the cancellation, revocation or suspension of relevant permits, licenses or approvals. Any failure by us
to apply in time, to renew, maintain or obtain the required permits, licenses or approvals, or the cancellation, suspension
or revocation of any of the permits, licenses or approvals may result in the interruption of our operations and may have a
material adverse effect on the business.
For further details, please see chapters titled “Key Industry Regulations and Policies” and “Government and Other
Statutory Approvals” at pages 114 and 180 respectively of this Prospectus.
14. We do not have firm commitment agreements with our customers. If our customers choose not to source their
requirements from us, our business and results of operations may be adversely affected.
We do not have firm commitment, long-term supply agreements with all our customers and instead rely on purchase
orders to govern the volume and other terms of our sales of products. Many of the purchase orders we receive from our
customers specify a price per unit and delivery schedule, and the quantities to be delivered are determined closer to the
date of delivery. However, such orders may be amended or cancelled prior to finalisation, and should such an amendment
or cancellation take place, it may adversely impact our production schedules and inventories. Further, where we have
contracts with customers, such contracts do not bind our customers to provide us with a specific volume of business and
can be terminated by our customers with or without cause, with little or no advance notice and without compensation.
Consequently, there is no commitment on the part of the customer to continue to place new work orders with us and as a
result, our sales from period to period may fluctuate significantly as a result of changes in our customers’ vendor
preferences and we may be unable to procure repeat orders from our customers.
Cancellation by customers or delay or reduction in their orders or instances where anticipated orders fail to materialize
can result in mismatch between our inventories of raw materials and of manufactured products, thereby increasing our
costs relating to maintaining our inventory and reduction of our margins, which may adversely affect our profitability and
liquidity. Further, we may not find any customers or purchasers for the surplus or excess capacity, in which case we would
be forced to incur a loss. Further, our inability to find customers for surplus products may result in excessive inventories
which may become obsolete and may be required to be written off in the future. Additionally, our customers have high
and stringent standards for product quality and quantity as well as delivery schedules. Any failure to meet our customers’
expectations could result in the cancellation or non-renewal of contracts or purchase orders. There are also a number of
factors, other than our performance that could cause the loss of a customer. Customers may demand price reductions, set-
off any payment obligations, require indemnification for themselves or their affiliates, or replace their existing products
with alternative products, any of which may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and future prospects.
15. The continuing effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations is highly uncertain and cannot
be predicted.
The continuing effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations is highly uncertain and cannot be
predicted. In late calendar 2019, COVID-19, commonly known as “novel coronavirus” was first reported in Wuhan,
China. Since then, the virus has progressively spread globally too many countries. The World Health Organization
declared the COVID-19 outbreak as a health emergency of international concern on January 30, 2020 and thereafter
categorised the outbreak as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. In order to contain the spread of COVID-19 virus, the
Government of India initially announced a 21-day lockdown on March 24, 2020, which, after being subject to successive
extensions, is being relaxed currently. During the duration of the lockdown, there were several restrictions in place
including travel restrictions and directive to all citizens to not move out of their respective houses unless essential. Whilst
the lockdown required private, commercial and industrial establishments to remain closed, subsequently manufacturing
32
units of essential commodities were permitted to be functional. The team members have been working from home during
lockdown and have been able to execute their responsibilities and service clients without any disruption, difficulty or
delay. Due to the rising number of infected cases of COVID-19 in the country, there is no certainty if additional restrictions
will be put back in place or if another lockdown would be re-imposed to control the spread of the pandemic. We cannot
assure you that we may not face any difficulty in our operations due to such restrictions and such a prolonged instance of
lockdown may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Further, our ability to ensure the safety of our workforce and continuity of operations while confirming with measures
implemented by the central and state governments in relation to the health and safety of our employees may result in
increased costs. In the event a member or members of our senior management team contract COVID-19, it may potentially
affect our operations. Further, in the event any of our employees contact COVID-19, we may be required to quarantine
our employees and shut down a part of or the entire operating facility as necessary. Risks arising on account of COVID-
19 can also threaten the safe operation of our facility, loss of life, injuries and impact the wellbeing of our employees.
The ultimate impact will depend on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control. These factors include the
duration, severity and scope of the pandemic, the impact of the pandemic on economic activity in India and globally, the
eventual level of infections in India, and the impact of any actions taken by governmental bodies or health organisations
(whether mandatory or advisory) to combat the spread of the virus. These risks could have an adverse effect on our
business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. To the extent that the COVID19 pandemic adversely
affects our business and operations, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this
“Risk Factors” section.
16. General economic and market conditions in India and globally could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, cash flows, results of operations and prospects.
Our business is highly dependent on economic and market conditions in India and other jurisdictions where we operate.
General economic and political conditions in India, such as macroeconomic and monetary policies, industry-specific
trends, mergers and acquisitions activity, legislation and regulations relating to the financial and securities industries,
household savings rate, investment in alternative financial instruments, upward and downward trends in the market,
business and financial sectors, volatility in security prices, perceived lack of attractiveness of the Indian capital markets,
inflation, foreign direct investment, consumer confidence, currency and interest rate fluctuations, availability of short-
term and long-term market funding sources and cost of funding, could affect our business. Global economic and political
conditions may also adversely affect the Indian economic conditions. Market conditions may change rapidly and the
Indian capital markets have experienced significant volatility in the past. The Indian economy has had sustained periods
of high inflation in the recent past. If inflation or real interest rates were to rise significantly, the trends towards increased
financial savings might slow down or reverse, our employee costs may increase and the sales of many of our products
and services may decline.
17. If we are unable to respond to the demands of our existing and new clients, or adapt to technological changes or
advances, our business and growth could be adversely affected.
Our industry is characterized by increasingly new and changing business models and rapid technological and regulatory
changes. Our clients’ needs and demands for our products evolve with these changes. Our future success will depend, in
part, on our ability to respond to our clients’ demands for new products, capabilities and technologies on a timely and
cost-effective basis. We also need to adapt to technological advancements and keep pace with changing regulatory
standards to address our clients’ increasingly sophisticated requirements. If we fail to adapt or keep pace with new
technologies in a timely manner, provide customers with better products and services and user experience, or retain and
attract skilled technology staff, it could harm our ability to compete, decrease the value of our products and services to
our clients, and adversely affect our business and future growth.
18. Any increase in interest rates would have an adverse effect on our results of operations and will expose our
Company to interest rate risks.
We are dependent upon the availability of equity, cash balances and debt financing to fund our operations and growth.
Any fluctuations in interest rates may directly impact the interest costs of such loans and, in particular, any increase in
interest rates could adversely affect our results of operations. Furthermore, our indebtedness means that a material portion
of our expected cash flow may be required to be dedicated to the payment of interest on our indebtedness, thereby reducing
the funds available to us for use in our general business operations. If interest rates increase, our interest payments will
increase and our ability to obtain additional debt and non-fund-based facilities could be adversely affected with a
concurrent adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For further details, please refer
chapter titled “Financial Indebtedness” beginning on page 173 of this Prospectus.
33
19. Major fraud, lapses of internal control or system failures could adversely impact the company’s business.
Our Company is vulnerable to risk arising from the failure of employees to adhere to approved procedures, system
controls, fraud, system failures, information system disruptions, communication systems failure and interception during
transmission through external communication channels or networks. Failure to protect fraud or breach in security may
adversely affect our Company’s operations and financial performance. Our reputation could also be adversely affected
by significant fraud committed by our employees, agents, customers or third parties.
20. We have not applied for registration of our name and logo and do not own the trademark legally as on date. We
may be unable to adequately protect our intellectual property. Furthermore, we may be subject to claims alleging
breach of third party intellectual property rights.
We have not applied for registration of our name and logo under the provisions of the Trademarks Act, 1999 and do not
own the trademark as on date. As such we do not enjoy the statutory protections accorded to a registered trademark as on
date. We are in the process of filing an application with the Trade Marks Registry, for registration of our logo and
corporate name under the provisions of the Trade Marks Act, 1999. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
register the trademark and the logo in future or that, third parties will not infringe our intellectual property, causing damage
to our business prospects, reputation and goodwill.
Further, we cannot assure you that any application for registration of our trademark in future by our Company will be
granted by the relevant authorities in a timely manner or at all. Our efforts to protect our intellectual property may not be
adequate and may lead to erosion of our business value and our operations could be adversely affected. We may not be
able to detect any unauthorized use or take appropriate and timely steps to enforce or protect our intellectual property.
21. We have had certain inaccuracy in relation to regulatory filings to be made with the RoC and our company has
made non-compliances of certain provision under applicable laws
Our Company has overlooked to comply with certain statutory provisions in the past including but not limited to the
details as mentioned in this risk factor. There are few discrepancies noticed in some of our corporate records relating to
adhering with the provisions of SS-1 and SS-2 of the Companies Act, 2013, however, upon identifying such non-
compliance, the company adhered with the provisions of SS-1 and SS-2 of Companies Act, 2013. Our Company failed to
comply with few of the provisions of Section 12(3) (a) and (c) of the Companies Act, 2013 by not mentioning Corporate
Identity Number along with telephone number, fax number, e-mail and website addresses of the company on its business
letters, and billheads. Upon identification of the said non-compliances the company has adhered to the provision
mentioned in section 12.
In addition, there are few discrepancies noticed in some of our corporate records relating to e-forms filed with the Registrar
of Companies. The discrepancies pertain to e-forms and attachments which contains certain clerical errors and inadequate
disclosures. Further, some of the attachments are not duly signed, stamped or on the letterhead of the Company. Also, our
Company has failed to file some of the e-forms within prescribed time, the same were later filed by paying additional
fees. However, upon identification of the above compliances, the Company ensured to adhered to all provisions and do
the needful within the prescribed time limit.
Valuation report pertaining to transfer of shares of the Company are not available with the Company and various transfer
of shares between our promoter/director and public shareholders have happened at a price which is lower than the Issue
price.
While no legal proceedings or regulatory action has been initiated against our Company in relation to such non-
compliance or instances of non-filings or incorrect filings or delays in filing statutory forms with the RoC as of the date
of this Prospectus, we cannot assure you that such legal proceedings or regulatory actions will not be initiated against our
Company in future and we cannot assure you that we will not be subject to penalties imposed by concerned regulatory
authorities in this respect. Therefore, if the authorities impose monetary penalties on us or take certain punitive actions
against our Company in relation to the same, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely
affected.
22. If we are not able to compete successfully against existing and new competitors, we may lose customers and
market share as well as reduce our margins.
The product segments in which we operate are mature and highly competitive in India, as a limited number of large
manufacturers compete for consumer acceptance. Competition is based upon brand perceptions, product performance and
innovation, customer service and price. In particular, this competition may affect our ability to bid competitively for
supply contracts with the Indian Railways and other government bodies which are awarded pursuant to competitive
bidding processes. In accordance with the prevailing procurement policies of the Indian Railways, a certain proportion of
34
these contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder. Some of our competitors which operate on a relatively smaller base and
any new entrants to the industry may be willing to reduce their margins in order to gain market share and may lower their
bid values for securing these contracts.
• our competitors may have substantially greater financial, marketing, research and development and other resources
and greater market share in certain segments than we do, which could provide them with greater scale and negotiating
leverage with distributors, and suppliers;
• our competitors may have lower manufacturing, sales and distribution costs, and higher profit margins, which may
enable them to offer aggressive retail discounts and other promotional incentives.
Any failure by us to compete effectively, including in terms of pricing or providing quality products, could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our ability to compete successfully will
depend, in significant part, on our ability to reduce costs by such means as leveraging global purchasing, improving
productivity, elimination of redundancies and increasing manufacturing at low-cost supply sources. If we are unable to
compete successfully, our market share may decline, which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations
and financial condition.
23. Orders placed by customers may be delayed, modified or cancelled, which may have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may encounter problems in executing the orders in relation to our products, or executing it on a timely basis.
Moreover, factors beyond our control or the control of our customers may postpone the delivery of such products or cause
its cancellation. Due to the possibility of cancellations or changes in scope and schedule of delivery of such products,
resulting from our customers’ discretion or problems we encounter in the delivery of such products or reasons outside our
control or the control of our customers, we cannot predict with certainty when, if or to what extent we may be able to
deliver the orders placed. Additionally, delays in the delivery of such products can lead to customers delaying or refusing
to pay the amount, in part or full, that we expect to be paid in respect of such products. In addition, even where a delivery
proceeds as scheduled, it is possible that the customers may default or otherwise fail to pay amounts owed.
24. Further any defaults or delays in payment by a significant portion of our customers, may have an adverse effect
on cash flows, results of operations and financial condition.
In the ordinary course of business, we extend credit to our customers. Our results of operations and profitability depend
on the credit worthiness of our customers. Certain of these customers may have weak credit histories and we cannot assure
that these counterparties will always be able to pay us in a timely fashion, or at all. Any adverse change in the financial
condition of our customers may adversely affect their ability to make payments to us. Default or delays in payments by a
significant portion of our customers may have an adverse effect on cash flows, results of operations and financial
condition. Default or delays in payments by a significant portion of our customers may have an adverse effect on cash
flows, results of operations and financial condition.
25. Our inability to manage growth could disrupt our business and reduce our profitability. We propose to expand
our business activities in coming financial years.
We expect our future growth to place significant demands on both our management and our resources. This will require
us to continuously evolve and improve our operational, financial and internal controls across the organisation. In
particular, continued expansion increases the challenges we face in:
• The timing and nature of, and expenses incurred in, our marketing efforts;
• Recruiting, training and retaining sufficient skilled technical and management personnel;
35
• Maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction;
• Developing and improving our internal administrative infrastructure, particularly our financial, operational,
communications, and other internal systems.
You should not rely on yearly comparisons of our results of operations as indicators of future performance. It is possible
that in some future periods our results of operations may be below the expectations of public, market analysts and
investors. If we are unable to manage our growth it could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and financial condition.
26. Our funding requirements and the deployment of Net Proceeds are based on management estimates and have not
been independently appraised. Further, our management will have discretion in the application of the Net
Proceeds, and there is no assurance that the Objects of the Issue will be achieved within the time frame expected
or at all.
We intend to use the Net Proceeds for the purposes described under “Objects of the Issue” on page 74. The Objects of
the Issue include funding of working Capital Requirements of our company amounting upto ₹ 2,375.00 Lakh, and general
corporate purposes amounting to ₹ 297.22 Lakh. Our funding requirements and the deployment of the Net Proceeds are
based on management estimates for which we have relied on internal assumptions and such assumptions have not been
appraised by any independent agency. The Net Proceeds may be used to repay / prepay such term and / or working capital
loans. While we believe that utilization of Net Proceeds for repayment of loans would help us to reduce our cost of debt
and enable the utilization of our internal accruals for further investment in business growth and expansion, the repayment
of loans will not result in the creation of any tangible assets for our Company. Given the nature of our business and due
to various uncertainties involved, we may be unable to utilize the Net Proceeds within the time frame or as per the schedule
of deployment that we currently estimate. In the case of increase in actual expenses or shortfall in requisite funds,
additional funds for a particular activity will be met by means available to us, including internal accruals and additional
equity and / or debt arrangements.
27. Our Company has a negative cash flow from investing activities in the period ended on June 30, 2023 and past 3
financial years and Financing Activities in the financial year ending on March 31, 2022 and 2021, details of
which are given below. Sustained negative cash flow could impact our growth and business.
Our Company had negative cash flows from our investing activities and financing activities in the previous year(s) as per
the Restated Financial Statements and the same are summarized as under:
(₹ in lakh)
Particulars June 30, 2023 March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022 March 31, 2021
Net Cash from Operating Activities 231.69 402.93 574.10 38.22
Net Cash from Investing Activities (107.87) (55.62) (187.74) (49.44)
Net Cash from Financing Activities 237.80 54.42 (259.86) (21.75)
Net Increase / (Decrease) in Cash & 361.62 401.73 126.50 (32.97)
Cash Equivalents
Cash flow of a company is a key indicator to show the extent of cash generated from operations to meet capital
expenditure, pay dividends, repay loans, and make new investments without raising finance from external resources. If
we are not able to generate sufficient cash flows in future, it may adversely affect our business and financial operations.
28. If we are unable to source business opportunities effectively, we may not achieve our financial objectives.
Our ability to achieve our financial objectives will depend on our ability to identify, evaluate and accomplish business
opportunities. To grow our business, we will need to hire, train, supervise and manage new employees and to implement
systems capable of effectively accommodating our growth. However, we cannot assure you that any such employees will
contribute to the success of our business or that we will implement such systems effectively. Our failure to source business
opportunities effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations. It is also possible that the strategies used by us in the future may be different from those presently in use. No
assurance can be given that our analyses of market and other data or the strategies we use or plans in future to use will be
successful under various market conditions.
29. Brand recognition is important to the success of our business, and our inability to build and maintain our brand
names will harm our business, financial condition and results of operation.
Brand recognition is important to the success of our business. Establishing and maintaining our brand name in the industry
or for people relying on products is critical to the success of the customer acquisition process of our business. Although,
36
we expect to allocate significant amount of resources, financial and otherwise, on establishing and maintaining our brands,
no assurance can be given that our brand names will be effective in attracting and growing user and client base for our
businesses or that such efforts will be cost-effective, which may negatively affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
30. Significant disruptions in our information technology systems or breaches of data security could adversely affect
our business and reputation.
We may also face cyber threats such as: (i) Phishing and Trojans – targeting our customers, wherein fraudsters send
unsolicited codes or mails to our customers seeking account sensitive information or to infect customer machines to search
and attempt ex-filtration of account sensitive information; (ii) Hacking – wherein attackers seek to hack into our
infrastructure with the primary intention of causing reputational damage to us by disrupting services; (iii) Data theft –
This can be internal i.e. by someone who has access to data of our Company or external wherein unconnected cyber
criminals may attempt to intrude into our network with the intention of stealing our data or information; and (iv) Advanced
persistent threat – a network attack in which an unauthorized person gains access to our network and remains undetected
for a long period of time In the event of a significant decline in the demand for our products, our business, results of
operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.
Our systems are potentially vulnerable to data security breaches, whether by our employees, or our service providers or
others that may expose sensitive data to unauthorized persons. We process and transfer data, including personal
information, financial information and other confidential data provided to us by our clients. Although we maintain systems
and procedures to prevent unauthorized access and other security breaches, it is possible that unauthorized individuals
could improperly access our systems, or improperly obtain or disclose sensitive data that we process or handle. Data
security breaches could lead to the loss of intellectual property or could lead to the public exposure of personal information
(including sensitive financial and personal information) of our clients’ investors or our employees. Any such security
breaches or compromises of technology systems could result in institution of legal proceedings against us and potential
imposition of penalties, which may have an adverse effect on our business and reputation.
31. The nature of our business exposes us to liability claims and contract disputes and our indemnities may not
adequately protect us. Any liability in excess of our reserves or indemnities could result in additional costs, which
would reduce our profits.
Time is often of the essence in our business work. In the event there are delays in our current or future products, we will
not be able to get extensions from our customers. Further, in some contracts, in case of delay due to deficiency in products
by us, clients may have the right to complete the work at our risk and cost by engaging a third party. In the event we fail
to perform under the terms of a particular contract, that could adversely affect our financial conditions and business
operations. Failure to effectively cover ourselves against any of these reasons could expose us to substantial costs and
potentially lead to material losses. In addition, if there is a customer dispute regarding our performance or workmanship,
the customer may delay or withhold payment to us.
32. Employee fraud or misconduct could harm us by impairing our ability to attract and retain clients and subject us
to significant legal liability and reputational harm.
Our business is exposed to the risk of employee misappropriation, fraud or misconduct. Our employees could make
improper use or disclose confidential information, which could result in regulatory sanctions and serious reputational or
financial harm. While we strive to monitor, detect and prevent fraud or misappropriation by our employees, through
various internal control measures, we may be unable to adequately prevent or deter such activities in all cases. Our
dependence upon automated systems to record and process transactions may further increase the risk that technical system
flaws or employee tampering or manipulation of those systems will result in losses that are difficult to detect. While we
have not been able to identify such issues in the past, there could be instances of fraud and misconduct by our employees,
which may go unnoticed for certain periods of time before corrective action is taken. In addition, we may be subject to
regulatory or other proceedings, penalties or other actions in connection with any such unauthorized transaction, fraud or
misappropriation by our agents or employees, which could adversely affect our goodwill, business prospects and future
financial performance. We may also be required to make good any monetary loss to the affected party. Even when we
identify instances of fraud and other misconduct and pursue legal recourse or file claims with our insurance carriers, we
cannot assure you that we will recover any amounts lost through such fraud or other misconduct.
33. The average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares by our Promoters is lower than the issue price.
Our Promoter’ average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares in our Company is lower than the Issue Price as decided by
the Company in consultation with the Book Running Lead Manager. For further details regarding average cost of
acquisition of Equity Shares by our Promoters in our Company and build-up of Equity Shares by our Promoters in our
Company, please refer chapter title “Capital Structure” beginning on page 63 of this Prospectus.
37
34. We have entered into related party transactions in the past and may continue to do so in the future.
Our Company has entered into various transactions with our Promoters. While we believe that all such transactions are
conducted on arm’s length basis, there can be no assurance that we could not have achieved more favourable terms had
such transactions were not entered into with related parties. Furthermore, it is likely that we will enter into related party
transactions in future. There can be no assurance that such transactions, individually or in aggregate, will not have an
adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation. For details on the transactions entered by us, please
refer to chapter “Related Party Transactions” beginning on page 155 of this Prospectus.
35. Our Promoters and promoters group will continue to retain majority control over the Company after the Issue,
which will allow them to influence the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders for approval.
Upon completion of the Issue, our Promoters and Promoters Group will own upto #69.83% of the Post-Issue Equity Share
capital of the Company. As a result, the Promoters and Promoter Group will have the ability to exercise significant
influence over all matters requiring shareholders’ approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant
corporate transactions. The Promoters and Promoter Group will also have an effective veto power with respect to any
shareholder action or approval requiring a majority vote. Such concentration of ownership may also have the effect of
delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control. For further details of Promoter’ shareholding, please refer chapter
titled “Capital Structure” beginning on Page No. 63 of this Prospectus.
#Subject to finalization of the Basis of Allotment
As on the date of filing of the Prospectus, our Company is still in the process of compiling information with respect to
Total Outstanding Due to MSME Creditor. Further, details pertaining to amounts due towards our creditors are not
available on the website of our Company. Our inability to accurately forecast the total number of MSME Creditor and
total amount due to them could adversely affect our business operations and cash flows and also affect our ability to
continue to manage and expand our business.
37. We are dependent on a number of Key Managerial Personnel and our senior management, and the loss of, or
our inability to attract or retain such persons could adversely affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
Our performance depends largely on the efforts, expertise and abilities of our Key Managerial Personnel, senior
management, and our operational personnel who possess significant experience in the industry in which we operate. We
believe that the inputs and experience of our KMP and senior management, in particular, and other key personnel are
valuable for the development of our business, operations and the strategic directions taken by our Company. We cannot
assure you that these individuals or any other member of our senior management team will not leave us or join a
competitor or that we will be able to retain such personnel or find adequate replacements in a timely manner, or at all.
We may require a long period of time to hire and train replacement personnel when qualified personnel terminate their
employment with our Company. Moreover, we may be required to substantially increase the number of our qualified
personnel in connection with any future growth plans, and we may face difficulty in doing so due to the intense
competition in the technology industry for such personnel. We may also be required to increase our levels of employee
compensation more rapidly than in the past in order to remain competitive in retaining.
Further, the COVID -19 pandemic has dynamically altered the approach on workplace hygiene and safety and continuity
of operations while confirming with measures implemented by the central and state governments in relation to the health
and safety of our employees may result in increased costs. In the event a member or members of our senior management
team contract COVID-19, it may potentially affect our operations. Further, in the event any of our employees’ contract
COVID-19, we may be required to quarantine our employees and shut down a part of or the entire operating facility as
necessary. Risks arising on account of COVID-19 can also threaten the safe operation of our facility, loss of life, injuries
and impact the well-being of our employees.
38. Our operating expenses include overheads that may remain fixed in the medium term. In case there is any decline
in our operating performance, we may be unable to reduce such expenses.
Our operating expenses include various fixed costs, which are as such, not dependent on sales revenue. Any shortfall in
sales may cause significant variations in operating results in any particular quarter, as we would not be able to reduce our
fixed operating expenses in the short term. The effect of any decline in sales may thereby be magnified because a portion
of our earnings are committed to paying these fixed costs. Accordingly, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of
our results may not necessarily give a correct presentation of the performance and should not be relied upon as indications
of future performance.
38
39. The shortage or non-availability of power facilities may adversely affect our business processes and have an
adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our business processes require substantial amount of power facilities. We do not have arrangements for alternative /
independent sources of power supply as of now. We are mainly dependent on local electricity service provider for meeting
our electricity requirements, there may be factors beyond our control affecting the supply of power. Any power failure
may lead to increased costs, thereby affecting the profitability.
40. Our insurance coverage may not adequately protect us against losses, and successful claims against us that
exceed our insurance coverage could harm our results of operations and diminish our financial position.
We maintain insurance coverage of the type and in the amounts that we believe are commensurate with our operations.
Our insurance policies, however, may not provide adequate coverage in certain circumstances and may be subject to
certain deductibles, exclusions and limits on coverage. In addition, there are various types of risks and losses for which
we do not maintain insurance, such as losses due to business interruption and natural disasters, because they are either
uninsurable or because insurance is not available to us on acceptable terms. A successful assertion of one or more large
claims against us that exceeds our available insurance coverage or results in changes in our insurance policies, including
premium increases or the imposition of a larger deductible or co-insurance requirement, could adversely affect our
business, future financial performance and results of operations.
41. There are no alternate arrangements for meeting our requirements for the Objects of the Issue. Any shortfall in
raising / meeting the same could adversely affect our growth plans, operations and financial performance.
As on date, we have not made any alternate arrangements for meeting our capital requirements for the Objects of the
Issue. We meet our working capital requirements through our owned funds and internal accruals. Any shortfall in our net
owned funds, internal accruals and our inability to raise debt in future would result in us being unable to meet our working
capital requirements, which in turn will negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations. Further we
have not yet identified any alternate source of funding and hence any failure or delay on our part to raise money from this
Issue or any shortfall in the Issue Proceeds may delay the implementation schedule and could adversely affect our growth
plans. For further details, please refer chapter titled “Objects of the Issue” on page 74 of this Prospectus.
42. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows,
working capital requirements, capital expenditure and restrictive covenants in our financing arrangements.
We may retain all our future earnings, if any, for use in the operations and expansion of our business. As a result, we may
not declare dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends
will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on factors that our Board of Directors deem relevant,
including among others, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, business prospects and any
other financing arrangements. Additionally, under some of our loan agreements, we may not be permitted to declare any
dividends, if there is a default under such loan agreements or unless our Company has paid all the dues to the lender up
to the date on which the dividend is declared or paid or has made satisfactory provisions thereof. Accordingly, realization
of a gain on shareholder’s investments may largely depend upon the appreciation of the price of our Equity Shares. There
can be no assurance that our Equity Shares will appreciate in value. For details of our dividend history, see “Dividend
Policy” on page 156 of this Prospectus.
43. Any future acquisitions, joint ventures, partnerships, strategic alliances, tie-ups or investments could fail to
achieve expected synergies and may disrupt our business and harm the results of operations and our financial
condition.
Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to expand our business in response to changing technologies, customer
demands and competitive pressures. We have, in the past, explored and continue to explore opportunities on our own,
through collaborations, tie-ups, strategic alliances, partnerships or joint venture across the country and regions of focus.
In some circumstances, we may also decide to acquire, or invest in, complementary technologies instead of internal
development. While we are currently evaluating opportunities and negotiating with several potential partners, we have
not entered into any definitive agreements. The risks we face in connection with acquisitions may include integration of
product and service offerings, co-ordination of R&D and marketing functions and the diversion of management’s time
and focus from operating our business to addressing challenges pertaining to acquisition and integration. Our failure to
address these risks or other problems encountered in connection with our acquisitions and investments could result in our
failure to realize the anticipated benefits of these acquisitions or investments, cause us to incur unanticipated liabilities,
and harm our business generally.
39
44. Our future funds requirements, in the form of fresh issue of capital or securities and / or loans taken by us, may
be prejudicial to the interest of the shareholders depending upon the terms on which they are eventually raised.
We may require additional capital from time to time depending on our business needs. Any fresh issue of shares or
convertible securities would dilute the shareholding of the existing shareholders and such issuance may be done on terms
and conditions, which may not be favourable to the then existing shareholders. If such funds are raised in the form of
loans or debt, then it may substantially increase our interest burden and decrease our cash flows, thus prejudicially
affecting our profitability and ability to pay dividends to our shareholders.
45. Our lenders have imposed certain restrictive conditions on us under our financing arrangements. Under our
financing arrangements, we are required to obtain the prior, written lender consent for, among other matters,
changes in our capital structure, and formulation of a scheme of amalgamation or reconstruction and entering
into any other borrowing arrangement. Further, we are required to maintain certain financial ratios.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with these financial or other covenants or that we will be able
to obtain the consents necessary to take the actions we believe are necessary to operate and grow our business. Our level
of existing debt and any new debt that we incur in the future has important consequences. Any failure to comply with
these requirements or other conditions or covenants under our financing agreements that are not waived by our lenders or
are not otherwise cured by us, may require us to repay the borrowing in whole or part and may include other related costs.
Our Company may be forced to sell some or all of its assets or limit our operations. This may adversely affect our ability
to conduct our business and impair our future growth plans. Though these covenants are restrictive to some extent to the
Company however it ensures financial discipline, which would help the Company in the long run to improve its financial
performance.
For further information, see the chapter titled “Statement of Financial Indebtedness” on page 173 of this Prospectus.
46. Certain Agreements / deeds may be in the previous name of the company.
Our certain agreements and deeds may be in the name of the erstwhile name of the company i.e., Kalyani Cast-Tech
Private Limited. In case we fail to change the name in the agreements and deeds, it may cause adverse effect on Our
company’s business.
47. Reliance has been placed on declarations and affidavits furnished by our Directors and Key Management
Personnel, for details of their work experience and qualification included in this Prospectus.
Our Directors and Key Management Personnel have been unable to trace copies of certain documents pertaining to their
work experience and qualification. Accordingly, reliance has been placed on an affidavit furnished by them to disclose
such details in this Prospectus and neither we, nor the Book Running Lead Manager have been able to independently
verify these details in the absence of primary documentary evidence. Further, there can be no assurances that they will be
able to trace the relevant documents pertaining to their work experience and qualification in the future, or at all. Therefore,
we cannot assure you that all or any of the information relating to the work experience and qualification of our Directors
and Key Management Personnel in chapter “Our Management” beginning on page 127 of this Prospectus is complete,
true and accurate.
48. There is no guarantee that our Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchanges in a timely manner or at all.
In accordance with Indian law and practice, permission to list the Equity Shares will not be granted until after the Equity
Shares have been issued and allotted. Approval will require all other relevant documents authorizing the issuing of our
Equity Shares to be submitted. There could be a failure or delay in listing our Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges. Any
failure or delay in obtaining the approval would restrict your ability to dispose of your Equity Shares.
49. Excessive reliance on our information technology systems and their failure could harm our relationship with
customers, expose us to lawsuits or administrative sanctions or otherwise adversely affect our provision of
products to customers and our internal operation.
As part of our business strategy, we use high quality of information technology system to deliver our products in the best
possible way. We have an exemplary tract record for completion of the projects within the stipulated time period but there
may be the system interruptions, errors, or downtime which could result from a variety of causes including changes in
technology, technology failure, changes in system, and power failure etc. these may affect our business adversely.
50. The deployment of funds raised through this Issue shall not be subject to any Monitoring Agency and shall be
purely dependent on the discretion of the management of Our Company.
40
Since, the Issue size is less than ₹10,000 Lakhs, there is no mandatory requirement of appointing an Independent
Monitoring Agency for overseeing the deployment of utilization of funds raised through this Issue. The deployment of
these funds raised from this Issue, is hence, at the discretion of the management and the Board of Directors of Our
Company and Our Company’s management will have flexibility in applying the proceeds of the Issue and will not be
subject to monitoring by any independent agency. The fund requirement and deployment mentioned in the Objects of the
Issue is based on internal management estimates and have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. Any
inability on our part to effectively utilize the Issue proceeds could adversely affect our financials. However, our Audit
Committee will monitor the utilization of the proceeds of this Issue and prepare the statement for utilization of the
proceeds of this Issue. Also, in accordance with Section 27 of the Companies Act, 2013, a company shall not vary the
objects of the Issue without the Company being authorized to do so by our shareholders by way of special resolution and
other compliances as applicable in this regard. Our Promoters and controlling shareholders shall provide exit opportunity
to such shareholders who do not agree to the proposal to vary the objects, at such price, and in such manner, as may be
prescribed by SEBI, in this regard.
51. Negative publicity could adversely affect our revenue model and profitability.
We work in the market where trust of the customers on us and upon the products provided by us matters a lot. Any
negative publicity regarding our company or the products provided by the company due to any other unforeseen events
may affect our reputation and image which leads to the adverse effect on our business and goodwill as well.
52. Industry information included in this Prospectus has been derived from industry reports commissioned by us for
such purpose. There can be no assurance that such third-party statistical, financial and other industry
information is either complete or accurate.
We have relied on the reports of certain independent third party sources for purposes of inclusion of such information in
this Prospectus. These reports are subject to various limitations and based upon certain assumptions that are subjective in
nature. We have not independently verified data from such industry reports and other sources. Although we believe that
the data may be considered to be reliable, their accuracy, completeness and underlying assumptions are not guaranteed
and their depend ability cannot be assured. While we have taken reasonable care in the reproduction of the information,
the information has not been prepared or independently verified by us, or any of our respective affiliates or advisors and,
therefore, we make no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of such facts
and statistics. Due to possibly flawed or ineffective collection methods or discrepancies between published information
and market practice and other problems, the statistics herein may be inaccurate or may not be comparable to statistics
produced for other economies and should not be unduly relied upon. Further, there is no assurance that they are stated or
compiled on the same basis or with the same degree of accuracy as may be the case elsewhere. Statements from parties
that involve estimates are subject to change, and actual amounts may differ materially from those included in this
Prospectus.
53. The requirements of being a public listed company may strain our resources and impose additional requirements.
With the increased scrutiny of the affairs of a public listed company by shareholders, regulators and the public at large,
we will incur significant legal, accounting, corporate governance and other expenses that we did not incur in the past. We
will also be subject to the provisions of the listing agreements signed with the Stock Exchanges which require us to file
unaudited financial results on a half yearly basis. In order to meet our financial control and disclosure obligations,
significant resources band management supervision will be required. As a result, management’s attention may be diverted
from other business concerns, which could have an adverse effect on our business and operations. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to satisfy our reporting obligations and / or readily determine and report any changes to our
results of operations in a timely manner as other listed companies. In addition, we will need to increase the strength of
our management team and hire additional legal and accounting staff with appropriate public company experience and
accounting knowledge and we cannot assure that we will be able to do so in a timely manner.
54. There are restrictions on daily / weekly / monthly movements in the price of the Equity Shares, which may
adversely affect a shareholders’ ability to sell, or the price at which it can sell, Equity Shares at a particular point
in time.
Once listed, we would be subject to circuit breakers imposed by all stock exchanges in India, which does not allow
transactions beyond specified increases or decreases in the price of the Equity Shares. This circuit breaker operates
independently of the index-based market-wide circuit breakers generally imposed by SEBI on Indian stock exchanges.
The percentage limit on circuit breakers is set by the stock exchanges based on the historical volatility in the price and
trading volume of the Equity Shares. The stock exchanges do not inform us of the percentage limit of the circuit breaker
41
in effect from time to time and may change it without our knowledge. This circuit breaker limits the upward and downward
movements in the price of the Equity Shares. As a result of this circuit breaker, no assurance may be given regarding your
ability to sell your Equity Shares or the price at which you may be able to sell your Equity Shares at any particular time.
55. After this Issue, the price of the Equity Shares may be highly volatile, or an active trading market for the Equity
Shares may not develop.
The price of the Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges may fluctuate as a result of the factors, including:
Current valuations may not be sustainable in the future and may also not be reflective of future valuations for our industry
and our Company. There has been no public market for the Equity Shares and the prices of the Equity Shares may fluctuate
after this Issue. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Equity Shares will develop or be sustained
after this Issue or that the price at which the Equity Shares are initially traded will correspond to the price at which the
Equity Shares will trade in the market subsequent to this Issue.
56. You will not be able to sell immediately on Stock Exchange any of the Equity Shares you purchase in the Issue
until the Issue receives appropriate trading permissions.
The Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchange. Pursuant to Indian regulations, certain actions must be completed
before the Equity Shares can be listed and trading may commence. We cannot assure you that the Equity Shares will be
credited to investor’s demat accounts, or that trading in the Equity Shares will commence, within the time periods
specified in the Prospectus. Any failure or delay in obtaining the approval would restrict your ability to dispose of the
Equity Shares. In accordance with section 40 of the Companies Act, 2013, in the event that the permission of listing the
Equity Shares is denied by the stock exchanges, we are required to refund all monies collected to investors.
57. The Issue price of our Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity shares after the
issue.
The Issue price of our equity Shares has been determined by Book Built method. This price is based on numerous factors
and may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity Shares after the Issue. The market price of our Equity Shares
could be subject to significant fluctuation after the issue and may decline below the issue price. We cannot assure you
that you will be able to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Issue price. For further details you may refer chapter titled
“Basis for Issue Price” beginning on the page 80 of this Prospectus.
Some of the factors which may affect our share price without limitations are as follows:
• Changes in revenue.
• Variations in growth rate of our financial indicators such as earning per share, income, profit etc.
58. Sale of Equity Shares by our Promoters or other significant shareholder(s) may adversely affect the Trading price
of the Equity Shares.
42
Any instance of disinvestments of equity shares by our Promoters or by other significant shareholder(s) may significantly
affect the trading price of our Equity Shares. Further, our market price may also be adversely affected even if there is a
perception or belief that such sales of Equity Shares might occur.
EXTERNAL RISKS
59. Changes in government regulations or their implementation could disrupt our operations and adversely affect
our business and results of operations.
Our business and industry is regulated by different laws, rules and regulations framed by the Central and State
Government. These regulations can be amended / changed on a short notice at the discretion of the Government. If we
fail to comply with all applicable regulations or if the regulations governing our business or their implementation change
adversely, we may incur increased costs or be subject to penalties, which could disrupt our operations and adversely affect
our business and results of operations.
60. Malpractices by some players in the industry affect overall performance of emerging Companies
The industry in which our Company operates is subject to risk associated with unethical business practices such as
unethical marketing, dishonest advertising, questionable pricing practices, inaccurate claims with regards to safety and
efficacy of the product etc. Consumers’ attitude toward the industry today is dominated by a sense of mistrust, paving a
way for regulators for stricter entry barriers and introduction of code of conducts; making the entire industry environment
regulated and controlled. Malpractices by some players in the industry affects the overall performance of the emerging
Companies like us as the industry norms are applicable to all at parity. Any unethical business practices by any industry
player or intermediary may impact our business and results of operations.
OTHER RISKS:
61. You may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of the Equity Shares.
Under current Indian tax laws and regulations, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares in an Indian Company
are generally taxable in India. Any gain on the sale of shares on a stock exchange held for more than 12 months will not
be subject to capital gains tax in India if the securities transaction tax (“STT”) has been paid on the transaction. The STT
will be levied on and collected by an Indian stock exchange on which equity shares are sold. Any gain on the sale of
shares held for more than 12 months to an Indian resident, which are sold other than on a stock exchange and as a result
of which no STT has been paid, will be subject to long term capital gains tax in India. Further, any gain on the sale of
shares held for a period of 12 months or less will be subject to capital gains tax in India. Further, any gain on the sale of
listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less which are sold other than on a stock exchange and on which no
STT has been paid, will be subject to short term capital gains tax at a relatively higher rate as compared to the transaction
where STT has been paid in India.
In Finance Bill 2017, section 10(38) was amended to provide that exemption under this section for income arising on
transfer of equity share acquired on or after 1 st day of October 2004 shall be available only if the acquisition of share is
chargeable to Securities Transactions Tax (STT) under Chapter VII of the Finance (No 2) Act, 2004. In case this provision
becomes effective, sale shares acquired on or after 1 st day of October 2004 on which STT was not charged will attract tax
under provisions of Long-Term Capital Gains.
As per Finance Bill 2018, exemption under section 10(38) for income arising from long term gains on transfer of equity
share shall not be available on or after 1 st day of April 2018 if the long-term capital gains exceeds ₹ 1,00,000/- p.a. Such
income arising from long term gains on transfer of equity share on or after 1 st day of April 2018 in excess of ₹ 1,00,000/-
pa. shall be chargeable at the rate of 10%. Capital gains arising from the sale of shares will be exempt from taxation in
India in cases where an exemption is provided under a tax treaty between India and the country of which the seller is a
resident. Generally, Indian tax treaties do not limit India’s ability to impose tax on capital gains. As a result, residents of
other countries may be liable for tax in India as well as in their own jurisdictions on gains arising from a sale of the shares
subject to relief available under the applicable tax treaty or under the laws of their own jurisdiction.
62. Significant differences exist between Indian GAAP and other accounting principles, such as U.S. GAAP and
IFRS, which may be material to the financial statements, prepared and presented in accordance with SEBI ICDR
Regulations contained in this Prospectus.
43
As stated in the reports of the Auditor included in this Prospectus under chapter “Financial Statements as Restated”
beginning on page 157 the financial statements included in this Prospectus are based on financial information that is based
on the audited financial statements that are prepared and presented in conformity with Indian GAAP and restated in
accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations, and no attempt has been made to reconcile any of the information given in
this Prospectus to any other principles or to base it on any other standards. Indian GAAP differs from accounting principles
and auditing standards with which prospective investors may be familiar in other countries, such as U.S. GAAP and IFRS.
Significant differences exist between Indian GAAP and U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which may be material to the financial
information prepared and presented in accordance with Indian GAAP contained in this Prospectus. Accordingly, the
degree to which the financial information included in this Prospectus will provide meaningful information is dependent
on familiarity with Indian GAAP, the Companies Act and the SEBIICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not
familiar with Indian GAAP on the financial disclosures presented in this Prospectus should accordingly be limited.
63. Political instability or a change in economic liberalization and deregulation policies could seriously harm
business and economic conditions in India generally and our business in particular.
The Government of India has traditionally exercised and continues to exercise influence over many aspects of the
economy. Our business and the market price and liquidity of our Equity Shares may be affected by interest rates, changes
in Government policy, taxation, social and civil unrest and other political, economic or other developments in or affecting
India. The rate of economic liberalization could change, and specific laws and policies affecting the information
technology sector, foreign investment and other matters affecting investment in our securities could change as well. Any
significant change in such liberalization and deregulation policies could adversely affect business and economic
conditions in India, generally, and our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations, in particular.
64. Financial instability in Indian Financial Markets could adversely affect our Company’s results of operation and
financial condition.
In this globalized world, the Indian economy and financial markets are significantly influenced by worldwide economic,
financial and market conditions. Any financial turmoil, say in the United States of America, Europe, China or other
emerging economies, may have a negative impact on the Indian economy. Although economic conditions differ in each
country, investors’ reactions to any significant developments in one country can have adverse effects on the financial and
market conditions in other countries. A loss in investor confidence in the financial systems, particularly in other emerging
markets, may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets. Indian financial markets have also experienced the
contagion effect of the global financial turmoil. Any prolonged financial crisis may have an adverse impact on the Indian
economy, thereby resulting in a material and adverse effect on our Company’s business, operations, financial condition,
profitability and price of its Shares. Stock exchanges in India have in the past experienced substantial fluctuations in the
prices of listed securities.
65. We cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of facts and other statistics with respect to India, the Indian
economy and our industry contained in this Prospectus.
While facts and other statistics in this Prospectus relating to India, the Indian economy and our industry has been based
on various government publications and reports from government agencies that we believe are reliable, we cannot
guarantee the quality or reliability of such materials. While we have taken reasonable care in the reproduction of such
information, industry facts and other statistics have not been prepared or independently verified by us or any of our
respective affiliates or advisors and, therefore we make no representation as to their accuracy or completeness. These
facts and other statistics include the facts and statistics included in the chapter titled “Our Industry” beginning on page
90 of this Prospectus. Due to possibly flawed or ineffective data collection methods or discrepancies between published
information and market practice and other problems, the statistics herein may be inaccurate or may not be comparable to
statistics produced elsewhere and should not be unduly relied upon. Further, there is no assurance that they are stated or
compiled on the same basis or with the same degree of accuracy, as the case may be, elsewhere.
66. Global economic, political and social conditions may harm our ability to do business, increase our costs and
negatively affect our stock price.
Global economic and political factors that are beyond our control, influence forecasts and directly affect performance.
These factors include interest rates, rates of economic growth, fiscal and monetary policies of governments, inflation,
deflation, foreign exchange fluctuations, consumer credit availability, fluctuations in commodities markets, consumer
debt levels, unemployment trends and other matters that influence consumer confidence, spending and tourism. Increasing
volatility in financial markets may cause these factors to change with a greater degree of frequency a magnitude, which
may negatively affect our stock prices.
67. Foreign investors are subject to foreign investment restrictions under Indian law that limits our ability to attract
foreign investors, which may adversely impact the market price of the Equity Shares.
44
Under the foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfers of shares between non-residents and residents
are freely permitted (subject to certain exceptions) if they comply with the pricing guidelines and reporting requirements
specified by the RBI. If the transfer of shares, which are sought to be transferred, is not in compliance with such pricing
guidelines or reporting requirements or fall under any of the exceptions referred to above, then the prior approval of the
RBI will be required. Additionally, shareholders who seek to convert the Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India
into foreign currency and repatriate that foreign currency from India will require a no objection / tax clearance certificate
from the income tax authority. There can be no assurance that any approval required from the RBI or any other
government agency can be obtained on any particular terms or at all.
68. Natural calamities could have a negative impact on the Indian economy and cause Our Company’s business to
suffer.
India has experienced natural calamities such as earthquakes, tsunami, floods etc. In recent years, the extent and severity
of these natural disasters determine their impact on the Indian economy. Prolonged spells of abnormal rainfall or other
natural calamities could have a negative impact on the Indian economy, which could adversely affect our business,
prospects, financial condition and results of operations as well as the price of the Equity Shares.
69. Terrorist attacks, civil unrests and other acts of violence or war involving India or other countries could adversely
affect the financial markets, our business, financial condition and the price of our Equity Shares.
Any major hostilities involving India or other acts of violence, including civil unrest or similar events that are beyond our
control, could have a material adverse effect on India’s economy and our business. Incidents such as the terrorist attacks,
other incidents such as those in US, Indonesia, Madrid and London, and other acts of violence may adversely affect the
Indian stock markets where our Equity Shares will trade as well the global equity markets generally. Such acts could
negatively impact business sentiment as well as trade between countries, which could adversely affect our Company’s
business and profitability. Additionally, such events could have a material adverse effect on the market for securities of
Indian companies, including the Equity Shares.
70. Any downgrading of India’s sovereign rating by an independent agency may harm our ability to raise financing.
Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings for domestic and international debt by international rating agencies may
adversely impact our ability to raise additional financing, and the interest rates and other commercial terms at which such
additional financing may be available. This could have an adverse effect on our business and future financial performance,
our ability to obtain financing for capital expenditures and the trading price of our Equity Shares.

Proceeds and internal accruals. Accordingly, we confirm that we are in compliance with the requirement to make firm
arrangements of finance under Regulation 230(1)I of the SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, 2018 through verifiable means

activity will be met by way of means available to our Company, including from internal accruals. If the actual utilization
towards any of the Objects is lower than the proposed deployment such balance will be used for future growth
opportunities including funding existing objects, if required. In case of delays in raising funds from the Issue, our
Company may deploy certain amounts towards any of the above-mentioned Objects through a combination of Internal
Accruals or Unsecured Loans.
As we operate in competitive environment, our Company may have to revise its business plan from time to time and

which may not be within the control of our management. This may entail rescheduling or revising the planned expenditure

SECTION VIII: ABOUT THE ISSUER COMPANY
OUR INDUSTRY
The information in this section has been extracted from various websites and publicly available documents from
various industry sources. The data may have been re-classified by us for the purpose of presentation. Neither we nor
any other person connected with the issue has independently verified the information provided in this section. Industry
sources and publications, referred to in this section, generally state that the information contained therein has been
obtained from sources generally believed to be reliable but their accuracy, completeness and underlying assumptions
are not guaranteed and their reliability cannot be assured, and, accordingly, investment decisions should not be based
on such information.
• Global growth is projected to fall from an estimated 3.5 percent in 2022 to 3.0 percent in both 2023 and 2024. While
the forecast for 2023 is modestly higher than predicted in the April 2023 World Economic Outlook (WEO), it remains
weak by historical standards. The rise in central bank policy rates to fight inflation continues to weigh on economic
activity. Global headline inflation is expected to fall from 8.7 percent in 2022 to 6.8 percent in 2023 and 5.2 percent
in 2024. Underlying (core) inflation is projected to decline more gradually, and forecasts for inflation in 2024 have
been revised upward.
• The recent resolution of the US debt ceiling standoff and, earlier this year, strong action by authorities to contain
turbulence in US and Swiss banking, reduced the immediate risks of financial sector turmoil. This moderated adverse
risks to the outlook. However, the balance of risks to global growth remains tilted to the downside. Inflation could
remain high and even rise if further shocks occur, including those from an intensification of the war in Ukraine and
extreme weather-related events, triggering more restrictive monetary policy. Financial sector turbulence could
resume as markets adjust to further policy tightening by central banks. China’s recovery could slow, in part as a result
of unresolved real estate problems, with negative cross-border spillovers. Sovereign debt distress could spread to a
wider group of economies. On the upside, inflation could fall faster than expected, reducing the need for tight
monetary policy, and domestic demand could again prove more resilient.
• In most economies, the priority remains achieving sustained disinflation while ensuring financial stability. Therefore,
central banks should remain focused on restoring price stability and strengthening financial supervision and risk
monitoring. Should market strains materialize, countries should provide liquidity promptly while mitigating the
possibility of moral hazard. They should also build fiscal buffers, with the composition of fiscal adjustment ensuring
targeted support for the most vulnerable. Improvements to the supply side of the economy would facilitate fiscal
consolidation and a smoother decline of inflation toward target levels.
The global recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is slowing amid widening
divergences among economic sectors and regions.
The World Health Organization (WHO) announced in May that it no longer considers COVID-19 to be a “global health
emergency.” Supply chains have largely recovered, and shipping costs and suppliers’ delivery times are back to pre-
pandemic levels. But forces that hindered growth in 2022 persist. Inflation remains high and continues to erode household
purchasing power. Policy tightening by central banks in response to inflation has raised the cost of borrowing, constraining
economic activity. Immediate concerns about the health of the banking sector have subsided, but high interest rates are
filtering through the financial system, and banks in advanced economies have significantly tightened lending standards,
curtailing the supply of credit. The impact of higher interest rates extends to public finances, especially in poorer countries
grappling with elevated debt costs, constraining room for priority investments.
90
As a result, output losses compared with pre-
pandemic forecasts remain large, especially for
the world’s poorest nations. Despite these
headwinds, global economic activity was resilient
in the first quarter of 2023, with that resilience
driven mainly by the services sector. The post-
pandemic rotation of consumption back toward
services is approaching completion in advanced
economies (including in tourism-dependent
economies of southern Europe), and it
accelerated in a number of emerging market and
developing economies in the first quarter (Figure
1). However, as mobility returns to pre-pandemic
levels, the scope for further acceleration appears
more limited.
Global headline inflation is set to fall from an annual average of 8.7 percent in 2022 to 6.8 percent in 2023 and 5.2 percent
in 2024, broadly as projected in April, but above pre-pandemic (2017–19) levels of about 3.5 percent. About three-quarters
of the world’s economies are expected to see lower annual average headline inflation in 2023. Monetary policy tightening
is expected to gradually dampen inflation, but a central driver of the disinflation projected for 2023 is declining
international commodity prices. Differences in the pace of disinflation across countries reflect such factors as different
exposures to movements in commodity prices and currencies and different degrees of economic overheating. The forecast
for 2023 is revised down by 0.2 percentage point, largely on account of subdued inflation in China. The forecast for 2024
has been revised upward by 0.3 percentage point, with the upgrade reflecting higher-than-expected core inflation.
Core inflation is generally declining more gradually. Globally, it is set to decline from an annual average of 6.5 percent
in 2022 to 6.0 percent in 2023 and 4.7 percent in 2024. It is proving more persistent than projected, mainly for advanced
economies, for which forecasts have been revised upward by 0.3 percentage point for 2023 and by 0.4 percentage point
for 2024 compared with the April 2023 WEO. Global core inflation is revised down by 0.2 percentage point in 2023,
reflecting lower-than-expected core inflation in China, and up by 0.4 percentage point in 2024. On an annual average
basis, about half of economies are expected to see no decline in core inflation in 2023, although on a fourth-quarter-over-
fourth-quarter basis, about 88 percent of economies for which quarterly data are available are projected to see a decline.
Overall, inflation is projected to remain above target in 2023 in 96 percent of economies with inflation targets and in 89
percent of those economies in 2024.
Policy Priorities
Conquer inflation. Central banks in economies with elevated and persistent core inflation should continue to clearly signal
their commitment to reducing inflation. A restrictive stance—with real rates above neutral—is needed until there are clear
signs that underlying inflation is cooling. Multilayered uncertainty complicates the task for central banks: Levels of
neutral rates and lags of policy transmission are difficult to estimate with confidence, and the potency of the transmission
mechanism may differ across economic sectors. In view of these uncertainties, adjusting policy in a data-dependent
manner and avoiding a premature easing before price pressures have adequately receded is warranted, while continuing
to use tools to maintain financial stability when needed. Although the primary responsibility for restoring price stability
lies with central banks, legislated government spending cuts or tax increases aimed at ensuring public debt sustainability
91
can, by reducing aggregate demand and reinforcing the overall credibility of disinflation strategies, further ease inflation.
This is especially the case in countries with overheated economies and steep inflation-unemployment trade-offs.
Maintain financial stability and prepare for stress. The fast pace of monetary policy tightening continues to put the
financial sector under pressure. Strengthened supervision (by implementing Basel III and removing forbearance
measures) and monitoring risks to anticipate further episodes of banking sector stress is warranted. The intensity of
supervision must be commensurate with banks’ risks and systemic importance, and it is essential to address oversight
gaps in the nonbank financial sector. Macroprudential policy measures could be employed preemptively to address
emerging risks in banks and nonbank financial institutions. Where market strains emerge, deploying tools that provide
liquidity support promptly and forcefully, while mitigating the risk of moral hazard, would limit contagion. Because
central banks are not equipped to deal with insolvency problems, it is important for governments to rebuild fiscal space
in the event real resources need to be mobilized. Countries at risk of external shocks can make full use of the global
financial safety net afforded by international financial institutions, including IMF precautionary financial arrangements.
Rebuild fiscal buffers while protecting the vulnerable. With fiscal deficits and government debt above pre-pandemic
levels, credible medium-term fiscal consolidation is in many cases needed to restore budgetary room for maneuver and
ensure debt sustainability. Fiscal adjustment is currently projected International Monetary Fund | July 2023 9 to average
0.5 percent of GDP in 2024 (based on the change in structural fiscal balances) in both advanced economies and emerging
market and developing economies. For economies with access to international markets, the pace of fiscal consolidation
should depend on the strength of private demand. The composition of fiscal adjustment should protect targeted support
for the most vulnerable. Phasing out untargeted fiscal measures, including those that blunt price signals such as energy
subsidies is warranted, especially since energy prices have broadly returned to pre-pandemic levels. In cases in which
countries are in or at high risk of debt distress, achieving debt sustainability may require not only well-timed fiscal
consolidation, but also debt restructuring.

at distressed levels (more than 1,000 basis points). These high spreads have made issuance of new hard-currency debt
very challenging for frontier markets so far in 2023 (Figure 1.2).

Strong economic growth in the first quarter of FY 2022-23 helped India overcome the UK to become the fifth-largest
economy after it recovered from repeated waves of COVID-19 pandemic shock. Real GDP in the first quarter of 2022–
23 is currently about 4% higher than its corresponding 2019-20, indicating a strong start for India's recovery from the
pandemic. Given the release of pent-up demand and the widespread vaccination coverage, the contact-intensive services
sector will probably be the main driver of development in 2022–2023. Rising employment and substantially increasing
private consumption, supported by rising consumer sentiment, will support GDP growth in the coming months.
Future capital spending of the government in the economy is expected to be supported by factors such as tax buoyancy,
the streamlined tax system with low rates, a thorough assessment and rationalisation of the tariff structure, and the
digitization of tax filing. In the medium run, increased capital spending on infrastructure and asset-building projects is set
to increase growth multipliers, and with the revival in monsoon and the Kharif sowing, agriculture is also picking up
momentum. The contact-based services sector has largely demonstrated promise to boost growth by unleashing the pent-
up demand over the period of April-September 2022. The sector's success is being captured by a number of HFIs (High-
Frequency Indicators) that are performing well, indicating the beginnings of a comeback.
India has emerged as the fastest-growing major economy in the world and is expected to be one of the top three economic
powers in the world over the next 10-15 years, backed by its robust democracy and strong partnerships.
MARKET SIZE
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
India is primarily a domestic demand-driven economy, with consumption and investments contributing to 70% of the
economic activity. With an improvement in the economic scenario and the Indian economy recovering from the Covid-
19 pandemic shock, several investments and developments have been made across various sectors of the economy.
According to World Bank, India must continue to prioritise lowering inequality while also putting growth-oriented
policies into place to boost the economy. In view of this, there have been some developments that have taken place in the
recent past. Some of them are mentioned below.
93
• As of September 21, 2022, India’s foreign exchange reserves stood at US$ 524,520 million.
• The private equity-venture capital (PE-VC) sector investments stood at US$ 2 billion in September 2022.
• PMI Services remained comfortably in the expansionary zone at 56.7 during April-September 2022
• In September 2022, the gross Goods and Services Tax (GST) revenue collection stood at Rs. 147,686 crore (US$
17.92 billion).
GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES
Over the years, the Indian government has introduced many initiatives to strengthen the nation's economy. The Indian
government has been effective in developing policies and programmes that are not only beneficial for citizens to improve
their financial stability but also for the overall growth of the economy. Over recent decades, India's rapid economic growth
has led to a substantial increase in its demand for exports. Besides this, a number of the government's flagship
programmes, including Make in India, Start-up India, Digital India, the Smart City Mission, and the Atal Mission for
Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation, are aimed at creating immense opportunities in India. In this regard, some of
the initiatives taken by the government to improve the economic condition of the country are mentioned below:
• Home & Cooperation Minister Mr. Amit Shah, laid the foundation stone and performed Bhoomi Pujan of Shri Tanot
Mandir Complex Project under Border Tourism Development Programme in Jaisalmer in September 2022.
• In August 2022, Mr. Narendra Singh Tomar, Minister of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare inaugurated four new
facilities at the Central Arid Zone Research Institute (CAZRI), which has been rendering excellent services for more
than 60 years under the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR).
• In August 2022, a Special Food Processing Fund of Rs. 2,000 crore (US$ 242.72 million) was set up with National
Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) to provide affordable credit for investments in setting up
Mega Food Parks (MFP) as well as processing units in the MFPs.
• In July 2022, Deendayal Port Authority (DPA) announced plans to develop two Mega Cargo Handling Terminals on
a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) basis under Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Mode at an estimated cost of Rs. 5,963
crore (US$ 747.64 million).
• In July 2022, the Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi, approved the signing of the
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between India & Maldives. This MoU will provide a platform to tap the
benefits of information technology for court digitization and can be a potential growth area for the IT companies and
start-ups in both the countries.
ROAD AHEAD
In the second quarter of FY 2022-23, the growth momentum of the first quarter was sustained, and high-frequency
indicators (HFIs) performed well in July and August of 2022. India's comparatively strong position in the external sector
reflects the country's generally positive outlook for economic growth and rising employment rates. India ranked fifth in
foreign direct investment inflows among the developed and developing nations listed for the first quarter of 2022.
India's economic story during the first half of the current financial year highlighted the unwavering support the
government gave to its capital expenditure, which, in FY 2022–23 (until August 2022), stood 46.8% higher than the same
period last year. The ratio of revenue expenditure to capital outlay decreased from 6.4 in the previous year to 4.5 in the
current year, signaling a clear change in favour of higher-quality spending. Stronger revenue generation as a result of
improved tax compliance, increased profitability of the company, and increasing economic activity also contributed to
rising capital spending levels.
Despite the continued global slowdown, India's exports climbed at the second highest rate this quarter. With a reduction
in port congestion, supply networks are being restored. The CPI-C and WPI inflation reduction from April 2022 already
reflects the impact. In August 2022, CPI-C inflation was 7.0%, down from 7.8% in April 2022. Similarly, WPI inflation
has decreased from 15.4% in April 2022 to 12.4% in August 2022. With a proactive set of administrative actions by the
government, flexible monetary policy, and a softening of global commodity prices and supply-chain bottlenecks,
inflationary pressures in India look to be on the decline overall.

INTRODUCTION
The Indian railway system is regarded as the foundation and lifeblood of the economy. Indian railways span over
thousands of kilometers practically covering the entire nation, making it the fourth largest in the world after the US, China
and Russia. The Railways Board, which has a monopoly over the provision of rail services in India, is in charge of
overseeing the whole infrastructure. Due to its low cost and effective operations, railways continue to be the most popular
means of transportation for the majority of Indians when travelling long distances.
India’s railway network is recognized as one of the largest railway systems in the world under single management. The
railway network is also ideal for long-distance travel and movement of bulk commodities, apart from being an energy
efficient and economic mode of conveyance and transport. Indian Railways is the preferred carrier of automobiles in the
country.
Government of India has focused on investing in railway infrastructure by making investor-friendly policies. It has moved
quickly to enable Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in railways to improve infrastructure for freight and high-speed trains.
At present, several domestic and foreign companies are also looking to invest in Indian rail projects.
GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES
The Government of India has adopted few initiatives for the Railways sector in the recent past, some of these are as
follows:
Under the Union Budget 2023-24, capital outlay of Rs. 2.40 lakh crore (US$ 29 billion) has been allocated to the Ministry
of Railways, which is the highest ever outlay and about nine times the outlay made in 2013-14.
Indian Railways launched a new tourism product i.e. theme based tourist circuit train – ‘Bharat Gaurav’ to showcase
India’s rich cultural heritage and magnificent historical places.
The government allocated Rs. 140,367.13 crore (US$ 18.40 billion) to the Ministry of Railways.
Indian Railways will develop new products and efficient logistics services for small farmers, and small and medium
enterprises. It will also take steps towards integration of postal and railway networks to provide seamless solutions for
movement of parcels.
95
100 PM-Gati Shakti Cargo Terminals for multimodal logistics facilities will be developed over next three years.
ROAD AHEAD
Indian Railway network is growing at a healthy rate. In the next five years, Indian railway market is expected to be the
third largest, accounting for 10% of the global market. The government has announced two key initiatives for seeking
private investments-running passenger trains by private operators across the railways network and redevelopment of
railway stations across the country. According to Indian Railways, these projects have the potential of bringing an
investment of over US$ 7.5 billion in the next five years.
‘Adarsh’ Station Scheme has been started since 2009-10 and presently, railway stations are upgraded/onetizing based on
identified need of providing better enhanced passenger amenities at stations. Under the scheme, 1,253 stations have been
identified for development, out of which 1,215 stations so far have been developed. The remaining 38 stations are planned
to be developed by 2022-23. Indian Railways is also looking at other areas of revenue generation such as the following:
a) Change in composition of coaches so that it can push the more profitable AC coach travel; b) Additional revenue
streams by onetizing traffic on its digital booking IRCTC; and c) Disinvesting IRCTC.
The size of the India air freight market is estimated at around USD 15 billion in the current year and is anticipated to
register a CAGR of over 4% during the forecast period. The Rail Logistics project will assist India in diverting more
traffic from the road to the rail, improving the efficiency of freight transportation while lowering annual GHG emissions
by millions of tonnes. Additionally, the project will encourage more private-sector investment in the railroad industry.
The fourth-largest rail network in the world, Indian Railways (IR), moved 1.2 billion tonnes of freight during the fiscal
year that ended in March 2020. However, just 17% of India’s freight is moved by rail; 71% of it is conveyed by road.
Volumes have been constrained, and shipping speeds and reliability have suffered due to IR capacity restrictions. Since
trucks have been gaining market share throughout the years, IR has been losing market share; in 2017–18, its market share
was 32%, down from 52% a decade earlier.
Road freight accounts for about 95% of the freight sector’s emissions, making it the biggest source of GHG emissions.
Additionally, trucks were involved in 15.8% of all fatal road transport-related accidents and 12.3% of all traffic fatalities
in 2018. Rail emits about one-fifth of the GHG emissions from trucks. With IR expecting to become a net-zero carbon
emitter by 2030, rail has the ability to reduce 7.5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases annually.
From a point of loading or a goods station to a point of unloading, goods are transported by rail. These products, such as
coal, building supplies, iron, and steel, are frequently large and heavy. Along with the transportation of large items, the
rail freight market also offers this service. Service providers provide value-added services and logistics. Loading and
documentation, unloading, services, and packaging are a few of them. A complete background analysis of the India Rail

The India foundry market size is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 10.77% between 2022 and 2027. The market size is
forecast to increase by USD 15,684.57 million. The growth of the market depends on several factors, including a focus
on technology upgrades, make-in-India initiatives, and increasing confidence within the foundry industry.
This foundry market report in India extensively covers market segmentation by end-user (automotive, electrical and
construction, industrial machinery, agriculture, and others) and type (gray iron casting, non-ferrous casting, ductile iron
casting, steel casting, and malleable casting). It also includes an in-depth analysis of drivers, trends, and challenges.
Furthermore, the report includes historic market data from 2017 to 2021.
99
What will be the Size of the Foundry Market in India During the Forecast Period?
Focus on technology upgrades is notably driving the India Foundry Market growth. India is one of the leading countries
in the market. The main reason for this is the increasing demand for metal castings from the automotive sector. In 2022,
India produced approximately 22.9 million vehicles, including commercial vehicles, passenger cars, tricycles, and two-
wheelers. This has increased the demand for the auto parts needed to manufacture automobiles. To meet the growing
demand for metal castings in India, foundries are investing in new technology and equipment.
The automotive sector saw a significant increase in sales in 2022 compared to 2021, with 13.63%. Similarly, motorcycle
sales increased by 4.7% in 2022 compared to 2021. The automotive sector has declined to some extent due to rising
vehicle prices. Indian foundries are therefore expected to benefit from technology upgrades in multiple ways, including
low power consumption, improved production efficiency, higher utilization rate, and higher profit margin. Such factors
are anticipated to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The lack of highly skilled manpower is challenging the India foundry market growth. Foundries in India lack skilled
workers such as foundry engineers, pattern makers, and maintenance electricians. Technology upgrades require
investment in training facilities to educate employees on various aspects, such as Different molding methods, patterns,
casting methods, and different furnace techniques. Organized, modern training facilities and the creation of regular
qualification programs help foundries to use advanced technology in their foundries.
Currently, most of the workforce is opting for managerial, clerical, and managerial positions. Over 90% of Indian
foundries are MSMEs, whose managers often perform functions that large foundries outsource to skilled workers. To
increase utilization rates, foundries in India invest in expert technicians specifically tailored to the task, including pattern
makers, hand core makers, shapers, machine core makers, primary sand technicians, and metallurgical assistants. Unless
this is achieved, the full potential of the market will not be realized. Such factors are anticipated to hinder the growth of
the market during the forecast period.

The Sale of Goods Act, 1930
The Sale of Goods Act, 1930 governs contracts relating to sale of goods in India. The contracts for sale of goods are
subject to the general principles of the law relating to contracts. A contract of sale may be an absolute one or based on
certain conditions. The Sale of Goods Act contains provisions in relation to the essential aspects of such contracts,
including the transfer of ownership of the goods, delivery of goods, rights and duties of the buyer and seller, remedies for
breach of contract and the conditions and warranties implied under a contract for sale of goods.
The Registration Act was passed to consolidate the enactments relating to the registration of documents. The main purpose
for which the Registration Act was designed was to ensure information about all deals concerning land so that correct
land records could be maintained. The Registration Act is used for proper recording of transactions relating to other
immovable property also. The Registration Act provides for registration of other documents also, which can give these
documents more authenticity. Registering authorities have been provided in all the districts for this purpose.
The Indian Contract Act, 1872 codifies the way in which a contract may be entered into, executed, implementation of the
provisions of a contract and effects of breach of a contract. A person is free to contract on any terms he chooses. The
Contract Act consists of limiting factors subject to which contract may be entered into, executed and the breach enforced.
It provides a framework of rules and regulations that govern formation and performance of contract. The contracting
parties themselves decide the rights and duties of parties and terms of agreement.
The Specific Relief Act is complimentary to the provisions of the Contract Act and the T.P. Act, as the Act applies both
to movable property and immovable property. The Act applies in cases where the Court can order specific performance
of a contract. Specific relief can be granted only for purpose of enforcing individual civil rights and not for the mere
purpose of enforcing a civil law. Specific performance‘ means Court will order the party to perform his part of agreement,
instead of imposing on him any monetary liability to pay damages to other party.
In India, cheques are governed by the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, which is largely a codification of the English
Law on the subject. The Act provides effective legal provision to restrain people from issuing cheques without having
sufficient funds in their account or any stringent provision to punish them in the event of such cheque not being honoured
by their bankers and returned unpaid. Section 138 of the Act creates statutory offence in the matter of dishonour of
cheques on the ground of insufficiency of funds in the account maintained by a person with the banker which is punishable
with imprisonment for a term which may extend to two year, or with fine which may extend to twice the amount of the
cheque, or with both.
ENVIRONMENTAL LEGISLATIONS:
The Environment Protection Act, 1986 and Environment (Protection) Rules, 1986
The Environmental Protection Act, 1986 is an "umbrella" legislation designed to provide a framework for co-ordination
of the activities of various Central and State authorities established under various laws. The potential scope of the Act is
broad, with "environment" defined to include water, air and land and the interrelationships which exists among water, air
and land, and human beings and other living creatures such as plants, micro-organisms and property. Further, the Ministry
of Environment and Forests looks into Environment Impact Assessment. The Ministry receives proposals for expansion,
modernization and setting up of projects and the impact which such projects would have on the environment which is
assessed by the Ministry in detail before granting clearances for such proposed projects.
This Policy seeks to extend the coverage, and fill in gaps that still exist, in light of present knowledge and accumulated
experience. This policy was prepared through an intensive process of consultation within the Government and inputs from
experts. It does not displace, but builds on the earlier policies. It is a statement of India's commitment to making a positive
contribution to international efforts. This is a response to our national commitment to a clean environment, mandated in
the Constitution in Articles 48 A and 51 A (g), strengthened by judicial interpretation of Article 21. The dominant theme
of this policy is that while conservation of environmental resources is necessary to secure livelihoods and well-being of
all, the most secure basis for conservation is to ensure that people dependent on particular resources obtain better
116
livelihoods from the fact of conservation, than from degradation of the resource. Following are the objectives of the
National Environmental Policy:
3. Inter-generational Equity
6. Environmental Governance
Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1981 (-the Act) was enacted with an objective to protect the environment

poisonous matter in the river and streams without treating the pollutants as per the standard laid down by the Pollution
control boards constituted under the Act. A person intending to commence any new industry, operation or process likely
to discharge pollutants must obtain prior consent of the board constituted under the Act.
The Municipal Solid Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules, 2000 as superseded by Solid Waste Management
Rules, 2016
The Waste Management Rules, 2000 applied to every municipal authority responsible for collection, segregation, storage,
transportation, processing and disposal of municipal solid wastes. Any municipal solid waste generated in a city or a

and with final notification of the Hazardous Waste (Management, Handling and Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2008
in supersession of former notification. The Rules lay down corresponding duties of various authorities such as MoEF,
CPCB, State/UT Govts., SPCBs/PCCs, DGFT, Port Authority and Custom Authority while State Pollution Control
Boards/ Pollution Control Committees have been designated with wider responsibilities touching across almost every
aspect of Hazardous wastes generation, handing and their disposal.

Tax (VAT), Food Tax, Central Sales Tax (CST), Introit, Octroi, Entertainment Tax, Entry Tax, Purchase Tax, Luxury
Tax, Advertisement Tax, Service Tax, Customs Duty, Surcharges. GST is levied on all transactions such as sale, transfer,

GST (CGST) by the Central Government and State GST (SGST) by the government of that state. For inter-state
transactions and imported goods or services, an Integrated GST (IGST) is levied by the Central Government. GST is a
consumption-based tax; therefore, taxes are paid to the state where the goods or services are consumed and not the state
in which they were produced.
The provisions of the Customs Act, 1962 and rules made there under are applicable at the time of import of goods i.e.,
bringing into India from a place outside India or at the time of export of goods i.e., taken out of India to a place outside

The Code received the assent of the President of India on August 8, 2019. The provisions of the Code shall come into
effect from the date notified in the Official Gazette by the Central Government. The Code will replace the four existing
ancient laws namely (i) the Payment of Wages Act, 1936, (ii) the Minimum Wages Act, 1948, (iii) the Payment of Bonus
Act, 1965, and (iv) the Equal Remuneration Act, 1976. The Code will apply to all employees and allows the Central
Government to set a minimum statutory wage.
Payment of Wages Act, 1936, as amended, Payment of Wages (Amendment) Act, 2017 is aimed at regulating the payment
of wages to certain classes of persons employed in certain specified industries and to ensure a speedy and effective remedy
for them against illegal deductions or unjustified delay caused in paying wages to them. The Act confers on the person(s)
responsible for payment of wages certain obligations with respect to the maintenance of registers and the display in such
factory/establishment, of the abstracts of this Act and Rules made there under.
The Minimum Wages Act, 1948 came into force with an objective to provide for the fixation of a minimum wage payable
by the employer to the employee. Every employer is mandated to pay the minimum wages to all employees engaged to
do any work skilled, unskilled, and manual or clerical (including out-workers) in any employment listed in the schedule
to this Act, in respect of which minimum rates of wages have been fixed or revised under the Act.
The PoB Act provides for payment of minimum bonus to factory employees and every other establishment in which 20
or more persons are employed and requires maintenance of certain books and registers and filing of monthly returns
showing computation of allocable surplus, set on and set off of allocable surplus and bonus due.

The Equal Remuneration Act, 1976 aims to provide for the payment of equal remuneration to men and women workers
and for the prevention of discrimination, on the ground of sex, against women in the matter of employment and for matters
connected therewith or incidental thereto. According to the Remuneration Act, no employer shall pay to any worker,
employed by him/her in an establishment, a remuneration (whether payable in cash or in kind) at rates less favourable
than those at which remuneration is paid by him to the workers of the opposite sex in such establishment for performing
the same work or work of a similar nature. In addition, no employer shall for complying with the foregoing provisions of
the Remuneration Act, reduce the rate of remuneration of any worker. No employer shall, while making recruitment for
the same work or work of a similar nature, or in any condition of service subsequent to recruitment such as promotions,
training or transfer, make any discrimination against women except where the employment of women in such work is
prohibited or restricted by or under any law for the time being in force.
The Government of India enacted ‘The Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 which received
the assent of the President of India on September 28, 2020. The provisions of this code will be brought into force on a
date to be notified by the Central Government. It proposes to subsume several separate legislations, including the Factories
Act, 1948, the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, the Inter-State Migrant Workmen (Regulation of
Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1979 and the Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation of
Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1996. The law that concern our business is as follows:
The Factories Act, 1948, as amended, defines a “factory” to cover any premises which employs 10 or more workers on
any day of the preceding 12 months and in which a manufacturing process is carried on with the aid of power or any
premises where at least 20 workers are employed, and where a manufacturing process is carried on without the aid of
power. Each state government has enacted rules in respect of the prior submission of plans and their approval for the
establishment of factories and registration/licensing thereof. The Factories Act provides for imposition of fines and
imprisonment of the manager and occupier of the factory in case of any contravention of the provisions of the Factories
Act.
The Government of India enacted ‘The Industrial Relations Code, 2020’ which received the assent of the President of
India on September 28, 2020. The provisions of this code will be brought into force on a date to be notified by the Central
Government. It proposes to subsume three separate legislations, namely, the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, the Trade
Unions Act, 1926 and the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946. Currently the laws are as follows
The Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 provides the procedure for investigation and settlement of industrial disputes. When a
dispute exists or is apprehended, the appropriate Government may refer the dispute to a labour court, tribunal, or arbitrator,
to prevent the occurrence or continuance of the dispute, or a strike or lock-out while a proceeding is pending. The labour
courts and tribunals may grant appropriate relief including ordering modification of contracts of employment or
reinstatement of workers. The ID Act further provides for direct access for the workers to labour courts or tribunals in
case of individual disputes and provided for the constitution of grievance settlement machineries in any establishment
having twenty or more workers.
Provisions of the Trade Union Act, 1926 provides that any dispute between employers and workmen or between workmen
and workmen, or between employers and employers which is connected with the employment, or non-employment, or
the terms of employment or the conditions of labour, of any person shall be treated as trade dispute. For every trade
dispute a trade union has to be formed. For the purpose of Trade Union Act, 1926, Trade Union means combination,
whether temporary or permanent, formed primarily for the purpose of regulating the relations between workmen and
employers or between workmen and workmen, or between employers and employers, or for imposing restrictive condition
on the conduct of any trade or business etc.
The Standing Orders were passed by the Central Government to bring uniformity in the terms of employment in industrial
establishments so as to minimalize industrial conflicts. The Standing Orders play a key role in defining the terms and
conditions of employment within an industrial employment. The highlights of the Standing Orders such as classification
119
of workmen, manner of intimation to workers about work and wage related details. Attendance and conditions for leaves,
conditions of termination of employment and means of redressal for workmen in different matters.
The Government of India enacted ‘The Code on Social Security, 2020 which received the assent of the President of India
on September 28, 2020. The provisions of this code will be brought into force on a date to be notified by the Central

Employees’ State Insurance Act, 1948, the Employees’ Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952, the
Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 and the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The laws that the code shall subsume, are currently
as follows –
The Employees’ Compensation Act, 1923 provides for payment of compensation to injured employees or workmen by
certain classes of employers for personal injuries caused due to an accident arising out of and during the course of
employment. Under the Employees’ Act, the amount of compensation to be paid depends on the nature and severity of
the injury. The Employees’ Act also lays down the duties/obligations of an employer and penalties in cases of non-
fulfilment of such obligations thereof. There are separate methods of calculation or estimation of compensation for injury
sustained by the employee. The employer is required to submit to the Commissioner for Employees’ Compensation a
report regarding any fatal or serious bodily injury suffered by an employee within seven days of death/serious bodily
injury.
It is an Act to provide for certain benefits to employees in case of sickness, maternity and ‘employment injury’ and to
make provision for certain other matters in relation thereto. It shall apply to all factories (including factories belonging to
the Government) other than seasonal factories. The ESI Act requires all the employees of the establishments to which this
Act applies to be insured in the manner provided there under. Employer and employees both are required to make
contribution to the fund. The return of the contribution made is required to be filed with the Employee State Insurance
department.
The EPF Act is applicable to an establishment employing more than 20 employees and as notified by the government
from time to time. All the establishments under the EPF Act are required to be registered with the appropriate Provident
Fund Commissioner. Also, in accordance with the provisions of the EPF Act, the employers are required to contribute to
the employees’ provident fund the prescribed percentage of the basic wages, dearness allowances and remaining
allowance (if any) payable to the employees. The employee shall also be required to make the equal contribution to the
fund. The Central Government under Section 5 of the EPF Act (as mentioned above) frames Employees Provident
Scheme, 1952.

Market risk is the risk of loss related to adverse changes in market prices, including interest rate risk. We are exposed to
interest rate risk, inflation and credit risk in the normal course of our business.
Our financial results are subject to changes in interest rates, which may affect our debt service obligations and our access
to funds.
Effect of Inflation
We are affected by inflation as it has an impact on the raw material cost, wages, etc. In line with changing inflation rates,
we rework our margins so as to absorb the inflationary impact.
Credit Risk
We are exposed to credit risk on monies owed to us by our customers. If our customers do not pay us promptly, or at all,
we may have to make provisions for or write-off such amounts.
Except as disclosed in chapter titled “Financial Statements as Restated” beginning on page 157 of this Prospectus, there
have been no reservations, qualifications and adverse remarks.

Details of Default, if any, including therein the Amount Involved, Duration of Default and Present Status, in Repayment
of Statutory Dues or Repayment of Debentures or Repayment of Deposits or Repayment of Loans from any Bank or
Financial Institution.
Except as disclosed in chapter titled “Financial Statements as Restated” beginning on page 157 of this Prospectus, there
have been no defaults in payment of statutory dues or repayment of debentures and interest thereon or repayment of
deposits and interest thereon or repayment of loans from any bank or financial institution and interest thereon by the
Company.
There are no transactions or events, which in our best judgment, would be considered unusual or infrequent that have
significantly affected operations of the Company.
Significant economic changes that materially affected or are likely to affect income from continuing operations
There are no significant economic changes that materially affected Company’s operations or are likely to affect income
from continuing operations. Any slowdown in the growth of Indian economy or future volatility in global commodity
prices, could affect the business including the future financial performance, shareholders’ funds and ability to implement
strategy and the price of the Equity Shares.
Known trends or uncertainties that have had or are expected to have a material adverse impact on sales, revenue
or income from continuing operations
Other than as disclosed in the chapter titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 28 of this Prospectus to our knowledge,

or income of our Company from continuing operations.
Future changes in relationship between costs and revenues in case of events such as future increase in labour or
material cost or prices that will cause material change
According to our knowledge, there are no future relationship between cost and income that would be expected to have a
material adverse impact on our operations and revenues. However, increase in the cost of the goods in which the Company
deals, will affect the profitability of the Company. Further, the Company may not be able to pass on the increase in prices
of the goods to the customers in full and this can be offset through cost reduction.
The extent to which material increases in net sales or revenue are due to increased sales volume, introduction of
new products or services or increased prices
The increase in revenue is by and large linked to increase in volume of all the activities carried out by the Company.
Total turnover of each major industry segment in which the Issuer Company operates
Our Company is primarily engaged in the business of manufacturing of containers and has manufacturing facilities in
India and overseas. The Company primarily caters to the Indian market with customers overseas also.

this Prospectus.
Competitive Conditions
We have competition with Indian and international manufacturing companies and our results of operations could be
affected by competition in the manufacturing industry in India and international market in the future. We expect
competition to intensify due to possible new entrants in the market, existing competitors further expanding their operations
and our entry into new markets where we may compete with well-established unorganized companies/ entities. This we
believe may impact our financial condition and operations. For details, please refer to the chapter titled “Risk Factors”
beginning on page 28 of this Prospectus.

PHASED IMPLEMENTATION OF UPI FOR BIDS BY RETAIL INDIVIDUAL BIDDERS AS PER THE UPI
CIRCULAR
205
SEBI has issued circular bearing number SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2018/138 dated November 1, 2018, circular no.
SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2019/50 dated April 3, 2019, circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2019/76 dated June
28, 2019, circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2019/85 dated July 26, 2019, circular no.
SEBI/HO/CFD/DCR2/CIR/P/2019/133 dated November 08, 2019 and circular SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2020/50
dated March 30, 2020 (collectively the “UPI Circulars”) in relation to streamlining the process of public issue of equity
shares and convertibles. Pursuant to the UPI Circulars, the UPI Mechanism has been introduced in a phased manner as a
payment mechanism (in addition to mechanism of blocking funds in the account maintained with SCSBs under the ASBA)
for applications by RIBs through intermediaries with the objective to reduce the time duration from public issue closure
to listing from six working days to up to three working days. Considering the time required for making necessary changes
to the systems and to ensure complete and smooth transition to the UPI payment mechanism, the UPI Circular proposes
to introduce and implement the UPI payment mechanism in three phases in the following manner:
Phase I: This phase was applicable from January 1, 2019 until March 31, 2019 or floating of five main board public
issues, whichever is later. Subsequently, the timeline for implementation of Phase I was extended till June 30, 2019.
Under this phase, a Retail Individual had the option to submit the Application Form with any of the intermediary and use
his / her UPI ID for the purpose of blocking of funds. The time duration from public issue closure to listing continued to
be six working days.
Phase II: This phase has become applicable from July 1, 2019 and was to initially continue for a period of three months
or floating of five main board public issues, whichever is later. Subsequently, it was decided to extend the timeline for
implementation of Phase II until March 31, 2020. Further still, as per SEBI circular SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2020/50
dated March 30, 2020, the current Phase II of Unified Payments Interface with Application Supported by Blocked Amount
is continued till further notice. Under this phase, submission of the ASBA Form by RIBs through Designated
Intermediaries (other than SCSBs) to SCSBs for blocking of funds will be discontinued and will be is replaced by the UPI
payment mechanism. However, the time duration from public issue closure to listing continues to be six working days
during this phase.
Phase III: The commencement period of Phase III is yet to be notified. In this phase, the time duration from public issue
closure to listing is proposed to be reduced to three working days.
Pursuant to the SEBI UPI Circular, SEBI has set out specific requirements for redressal of investor grievances for
applications that have been made through the UPI Mechanism. The requirements of the SEBI UPI Circular include,
appointment of a nodal officer by the SCSB and submission of their details to SEBI, the requirement for SCSBs to send
SMS alerts for the blocking and unblocking of UPI mandates, the requirement for the Registrar to submit details of
cancelled, withdrawn or deleted applications, and the requirement for the bank accounts of unsuccessful Bidders to be
unblocked not later than one day from the date on which the Basis of Allotment is finalised. Failure to unblock the
accounts within the timeline would result in the SCSBs being penalised under the relevant securities law. Additionally, if
there is any delay in the redressal of investors’ complaints in this regard, the relevant SCSB as well as the post – issue
BRLM will be required to compensate the concerned investor.
All SCSBs offering facility of making application in public issues shall also provide facility to make application using
the UPI Mechanism. The Issuers will be required to appoint one of the SCSBs as a sponsor bank to act as a conduit
between the Stock Exchanges and NPCI in order to facilitate collection of requests and / or payment instructions of the
Retail Individual Applicants into the UPI payment mechanism.
The processing fees for applications made by UPI Bidders using the UPI Mechanism may be released to the remitter
banks (SCSBs) only after such banks make an application as prescribed in Annexure I of SEBI circular no.

RESTRICTIONS ON FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF INDIAN SECURITIES
Foreign investment in Indian securities is regulated through the Industrial Policy, 1991 of the Government of India and
Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (“FEMA”). While the Industrial Policy, 1991 prescribes the limits and the
conditions subject to which foreign investment can be made in different sectors of the Indian economy, FEMA regulates
the precise manner in which such investment may be made. Under the Industrial Policy, unless specifically restricted,
foreign investment is freely permitted in all sectors of Indian economy up to any extent and without any prior approvals,
but the foreign investor is required to follow certain prescribed procedures for making such investment. The government
bodies responsible for granting foreign investment approvals are the Reserve Bank of India (“RBI”) and Department of
Industrial Policy and Promotion, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India (“DIPP”).
The Government of India has from time to time made policy pronouncements on FDI through press notes and press
releases. The DPIIT issued the Consolidated Foreign Direct Investment Policy notified by the DPIIT File No. 5(2) / 2020-
FDI Policy dated October 15, 2020, with effect from October 15, 2020 (the “FDI Policy”), which consolidates and
supersedes all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DPIIT or the DPIIT that were
in force and effect prior to October 15, 2020. The Government of India proposes to update the consolidated circular on
FDI Policy once every year and therefore, the FDI Policy will be valid until the DPIIT issues an updated circular.
The RBI also issues Master Circular on Foreign Investment in India every year. Presently, FDI in India is being governed
by Master Circular on Foreign Investment dated July 01, 2015, as updated from time to time by RBI and Master Direction
– Foreign Investment in India (updated up to March 08, 2019). In terms of the Master Circular, an Indian company may
issue fresh shares to people resident outside India (who is eligible to make investments in India, for which eligibility
criteria are as prescribed). Such fresh issue of shares shall be subject to inter-alia, the pricing guidelines prescribed under
the Master Circular and Master Direction. The Indian company making such fresh issue of shares would be subject to the
reporting requirements, inter-alia with respect to consideration for issue of shares and also subject to making certain
filings including filing of Form FC-GPR.
In case of investment in sectors through Government Route, approval from competent authority as mentioned in Section
4 of the FDI Policy 2020 has to be obtained. The transfer of shares between an Indian resident to a non-resident does not
require the prior approval of the RBI, subject to fulfilment of certain conditions as specified by DIPP / RBI, from time to
time.
As per the existing policy of the Government of India, OCBs cannot participate in this Issue and in accordance with the
extant FDI guidelines on sectoral caps, pricing guidelines etc. as amended by Reserve bank of India, from time to time.

of our Company to any person who is not eligible under applicable laws, rules, regulations, guidelines. Our Company,
the Underwriters and their respective directors, officers, agents, affiliates, and representatives, as applicable, accept no
responsibility or liability for advising any investor on whether such investor is eligible to acquire Equity Shares of our

terms and conditions, and provided that an entity of a country, which shares land border with India or the beneficial owner
of an investment into India who is situated in or is a citizen of any such country, shall invest only with government
approval.
The transfer of shares between an Indian resident and a non-resident does not require the prior approval of the RBI,
provided that

transfer does not attract the provisions of the Takeover Regulations;
(ii) the non-resident shareholding is within the sectoral limits under the FDI policy; and
(iii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by the SEBI / RBI.
Further, in accordance with Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April 17, 2020 issued by the DPIIT and the Foreign

with India or where the beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such country
(“Restricted Investors”), will require prior approval of the Government, as prescribed in the Consolidated FDI Policy and
the FEMA Rules. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future foreign direct investment in an
235
entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling within the aforesaid restriction / purview,
such subsequent change in the beneficial ownership will also require approval of the Government. Furthermore, on April
22, 2020, the Ministry of Finance, Government of India has also made a similar amendment to the FEMA Rules. Pursuant
to the Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) (Fourth Amendment) Rules, 2020, a multilateral bank or
fund, of which India is a member, shall not be treated as an entity of a particular country nor shall any country be treated
as the beneficial owner of the investments of such bank of fund in India. Each Bidder should seek independent legal
