| 6. | Justification as to why the RPTs proposed to be entered into are in the interest of the listed entity | Your Company’s operations are closely linked to the aluminium industry, which continues to witness significant capacity expansion in India by major industry participants. In this evolving market environment, ensuring uninterrupted operations, timely procurement of raw materials and continuity of customer servicing remain critical to sustaining the Company’s market position and long-term business relationships. |
Further, the prevailing global geopolitical environment and continuing supply chain disruptions have resulted in significant volatility and escalation in raw material prices in recent periods. The sharp increase in input costs has materially increased the Company’s working capital requirements, necessitating timely access to additional liquidity to support procurement and operational continuity.
In view of the above, the proposed funding arrangements are intended as prudent short-term measures to support the Company’s working capital requirements during the current operating cycle. The Company has evaluated alternative funding options available in the market. However, considering the prevailing operating environment, volatility in raw material prices, market conditions and timelines associated with external fund raising, the proposed promoter funding arrangements provide timely liquidity support on commercially competitive terms and enable operational continuity without any dilution of equity. The continued financial backing and support being extended by the Promoter during the present business environment also demonstrates the Promoter’s long-term commitment and confidence in the Company’s operations and future prospects. The proposed arrangements further provide financial flexibility to the Company and assist in bridging short-term funding gaps while maintaining readiness to participate in the growing demand environment.
Accordingly, the Company proposes to avail short-term unsecured borrowing facilities aggregating up to ₹150 Crores from Mr. Shrinivas Dempo, Director/Promoter of the Company. In addition, the Company also proposes to avail short-term borrowings aggregating up to ₹100 Crores from 360 One Prime Limited (which is not a related party of the Company), backed by securities and/or guarantees to be provided by Mr. Shrinivas Dempo along with other Promoter Group entities. These arrangements are proposed to meet the Company’s immediate and additional working capital requirements and to ensure continuity and stability of operations.
The proposed funding structure provides the Company with timely access to liquidity on commercially |

| favourable terms. The interest rates applicable on the proposed borrowings, as well as the guarantee commission payable in relation to the facilities availed from 360 One Prime Limited, are market competitive and have been benchmarked on an arm's length basis through an independent benchmarking report issued by an independent audit firm. The actual interest rate applicable for each drawdown shall be determined based on prevailing market conditions and shall remain within the benchmarked arm's length range certified under the said benchmarking report. |
The tenure of the proposed facilities is short-term in nature and shall not exceed two years. Further, the proposed borrowing arrangement from the promoter provide flexibility for repayment or prepayment at any time without any prepayment penalty, thereby enabling efficient treasury management and optimisation of finance costs.
The securities and/or guarantees proposed to be provided by the Promoter and Promoter Group entities will also facilitate the Company's access to external borrowings on competitive terms, which may not otherwise be available to the Company on a standalone basis in the prevailing market conditions.
The proposed borrowing arrangements are being undertaken in connection with the Company's regular financing and working capital management activities and are therefore considered to be in the ordinary course of business. The proposed transactions are intended to be undertaken on an arm's length basis and are aligned with the Company's operational requirements and financial strategy.
After considering the overall commercial rationale, business requirements, pricing framework and benchmarking analysis, the management, Audit Committee and Board of Directors are of the opinion that the proposed related party transactions are commercially justified, prudent and in the best interests of the Company and its stakeholders. Accordingly, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors recommend the resolution for approval of the Members of the Company.
The approval sought from the Members is limited to the transaction structure, limits, tenure and pricing framework specifically disclosed in this Notice. |
