*CA Certificate from Virendra K Jain & Associates dated May 05, 2025

^ The usage of funds for working capital have increased from existing Rs. 64.36 crore as mentioned in the offer document, to Rs. 66.29 crore, i.e. increased by Rs. 1.93 crore resulting from the amount reduced in issue related expenses. This increase in ‘funding of working capital’, was driven by actual issue-related expenses being lower than anticipated, with actual expenses amounting to Rs. 10.92 crore, compared to the Rs. 12.85 crore originally projected in the offer document.

As per the offer document it is mentioned that “Our funding requirements, deployment of the Net Proceeds and the intended use of the Net Proceeds indicated above are based on internal management assessments of current and expected sectoral and market conditions, which are subject to change in the future. However, the deployment of funds described herein, has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution or any other independent agency. We may have to revise our funding requirements and deployment on account of a variety of factors such as our financial conditions, business and growth strategy and other external factors in the business eco-system such as changes in market conditions, regulatory climate, competitive environment, supply chain etc which may not be within the control of our management.”
