THIS DOCUMENT IS SOLELY FOR THE USE OF THE PERSON WHO RECEIVED IT FROM OUR COMPANY OR FROM THE REGISTRAR. THIS DOCUMENT IS NOT TO BE REPRODUCED OR DISTRIBUTED TO ANY OTHER PERSON.

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

The Company is a Public Limited (Listed) Company under the laws of India and all the Directors and all Executive Officers are residents of India. It may not be possible or may be difficult for investors to affect service of process upon the Company or these other persons outside India or to enforce against them in courts in India, judgments obtained in courts outside India. India is not a party to any international treaty in relation to the automatic recognition or enforcement of foreign judgments.

However, recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments is provided for under Sections 13, 14 and 44A of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, as amended (the “ Civil Procedure Code ”). Section 44A of the Civil Procedure Code provides that where a certified copy of a decree of any superior court (within the meaning of that section) in any country or territory outside India which the Government of India has by notification declared to be a reciprocating territory, is filed before a district court in India, such decree may be executed in India as if the decree has been rendered by a district court in India. Section 44A of the Civil Procedure Code is applicable only to monetary decrees or judgments not being in the nature of amounts payable in respect of taxes or other charges of a similar nature or in respect of fines or other penalties. Section 44A of the Civil Procedure Code does not apply to arbitration awards even if such awards are enforceable as a decree or judgment. Among others, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Hong Kong and the United Arab Emirates have been declared by the Government of India to be reciprocating territories within the meaning of Section 44A of the Civil Procedure Code.

The United States has not been declared by the Government of India to be a reciprocating territory for the purposes of Section 44A of the Civil Procedure Code. Under Section 14 of the Civil Procedure Code, an Indian court shall, on production of any document purporting to be a certified copy of a foreign judgment, presume that the judgment was pronounced by a court of competent jurisdiction unless the contrary appears on the record; but such presumption may be displaced by proving want of jurisdiction.

A judgment of a court in any non-reciprocating territory, such as the United States, may be enforced in India only by a suit upon the judgment subject to Section 13 of the Civil Procedure Code, and not by proceedings in execution. Section 13 of the Civil Procedure Code, which is the statutory basis for the recognition of foreign judgments (other than arbitration awards), states that a foreign judgment shall be conclusive as to any matter directly adjudicated upon between the same parties or between parties under whom they or any of them claim litigating under the same title except where:

  • The judgment has not been pronounced by a court of competent jurisdiction;

  • The judgment has not been given on the merits of the case;

  • The judgment appears on the face of the proceedings to be founded on an incorrect view of international law or a refusal to recognize the law of India in cases where such law is applicable;

  • The proceedings in which the judgment was obtained are opposed to natural justice;

  • The judgment has been obtained by fraud; and/or

  • The judgment sustains a claim founded on a breach of any law in force in India.

A suit to enforce a foreign judgment must be brought in India within three years from the date of the judgment in the same manner as any other suit filed to enforce a civil liability in India. It is unlikely that a court in India would award damages on the same basis as a foreign court if an action is brought in India. In addition, it is unlikely that an Indian court would enforce foreign judgments if it considered the amount of damages awarded as excessive or inconsistent with public policy or if the judgments are in breach of or contrary to Indian law. A party seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in India is required to obtain prior approval from the Reserve Bank of India to repatriate any amount recovered pursuant to execution of such judgment. Any judgment in a foreign currency would be converted into Rupees on the date of such judgment and not on the date of payment and any such amount may be subject to income tax in accordance with applicable laws. The Company cannot predict whether a suit brought in an Indian court will be disposed of in a timely manner or be subject to considerable delays.

Accordingly, the degree to which the financial information included in this Letter of Offer will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of

15

Certain figures contained in this Letter of Offer, including financial information, have been subject to rounded off adjustments. All figures in decimals (including percentages) have been rounded off to one or two decimals. However, where any figures that may have been sourced from third-party industry sources are rounded off to other than two decimal points in their respective sources, such figures appear in this Letter of Offer rounded-off to such number of decimal points as provided in such respective sources. In this Letter of Offer, (i) the sum or percentage change of certain numbers may not conform exactly to the total figure given; and (ii) the sum of the numbers in a column or row in certain tables may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that column or row. Any such discrepancies are due to rounding off.

SECTION II - RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Equity Shares involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider all the information in this Letter of Offer, including the risks and uncertainties described below, before making an investment in the Equity Shares. In making an investment decision, prospective investors must rely on their own examination of us and the terms of the Issue including the merits and risks involved. The risks described below are not the only ones relevant to us, our Equity Shares, the industry or the segment in which we operate. Additional risks and uncertainties, not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may arise or may become material in the future and may also impair our business, results of operations and financial condition. If any of the following risks, or other risks that are not currently known or are now deemed immaterial, actually occur, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be adversely affected, the trading price of our Equity Shares could decline, and as prospective investors, you may lose all or part of your investment. You should consult your tax, financial and legal advisors about particular consequences to you of an investment in this Issue. The financial and other related implications of the risk factors, wherever quantifiable, have been disclosed in the risk factors mentioned below. However, there are certain risk factors where the financial impact is not quantifiable and, therefore, cannot be disclosed in such risk factors.

To obtain a complete understanding, you should read this section in conjunction with the sections “Industry Overview”, “Our Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations” on pages 61, 67 and 123 of this Letter of Offer, respectively. The industry-related information disclosed in this section that is not otherwise publicly available is derived from industry sources as well as Government Publications. Industry sources as well as Government Publications generally state that the information contained in those publications has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable but that their accuracy and completeness and underlying assumptions are not guaranteed and their reliability cannot be assured.

This Letter of Offer also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the considerations described below and, in the section titled “Forward-Looking Statements” on page 18 of this Letter of Offer.

Unless specified or quantified in the relevant risk factors below, we are not in a position to quantify the financial or other implications of any of the risks described in this section. Unless the context requires otherwise, the financial information of our Company has been derived from the Restated Financial Information.

Materiality:

The Risk Factors have been determined on the basis of their materiality. The following factors have been considered for determining the materiality of Risk Factors:

  • Some events may not be material individually but may be found material collectively;

  • Some events may not be material at present but may have a material impact in future.

The financial and other related implications of risks concerned, whether quantifiable have been disclosed in the risk factors mentioned below. However, there are risk factors where the impact may not be quantifiable and hence, the same has not been disclosed in such risk factors.

23

INTERNAL RISK FACTORS

BUSINESS RELATED RISKS

1. Our expansion into new product categories and a diversification of business operations may expose us to new challenges and additional risks.

Our Company is engaged in the business of trading of cut and polished diamonds, wherein we offer a wide variety of products to suit preferences of the end customer. We cater to our customers’ unique preferences, through our understanding of the local and regional market. Owing to the volatility of the diamond industry, we intend to diversify our operations by venturing into the automotive industry, by acquiring VEM Tooling India Private Limited (the “ Target Entity ”). The Target Entity is engaged in the business of manufacturing automotive components for renowned automobile manufacturers, and have an inhouse manufacturing capabilities. In order to tap the growing market of the automobile industry and to benefit from the increasing demand of electric vehicles, we intend to diversify our business operations by acquiring the Target Entity. We believe that the acquisition would bring stability to the business operations of our Company, and increase our revenue and profitability.

Since, we are primarily engaged in trading of cut and polished diamonds, we have limited experience of operating in the automotive industry. While, the Target Entities have an experience in undertaking business operations in the automotive industry, we as a group have limited experience of managing automotive operations. We may face difficulty in understanding the demand and supply patterns, market trends, marketing segments for such products which may pose a risk in the smooth operation. In the event that we fail to understand the market operations and the risks related to the same, our business, financial performance and cash flows may be affected. If we cannot successfully manage our product mix, address new challenges or compete effectively, we may not be able to recover costs of our investments and eventually achieve profitability, and our future results of operations and growth prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

2. Our income and sales are subject to seasonal fluctuations and lower income in a peak season may have a disproportionate effect on our results of operations.

Our industry has seasonal increases and decreases in revenues and profitability, corresponding with weddings and festivals. Our sales have historically exhibited certain seasonal fluctuations, reflecting higher sales volumes on festivals and other occasions such as Durga Puja, Akshay Tritiya, Dhanteras, Diwali and Christmas which occur in the third and fourth quarter of the fiscal year. This period also coincides with the wedding season in India. While we stock certain inventory to account for this seasonality, our fixed costs such as employee salaries, Office operating costs and logistics-related expenses, which form a significant portion of operating costs, are relatively constant throughout the year. Consequently, lower than expected net sales during the third or fourth quarters of the fiscal year or more pronounced seasonal variations in sales in the future could have a disproportionate impact on our operating results for the fiscal year, or could strain our resources and impair our cash flows. Any slowdown in demand for our jewellery during peak seasons or failure by us to accurately anticipate and prepare for such seasonal fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

3. The Statutory Auditors of our Company have included certain additional qualified opinions and emphasis of matters in their audit report issued for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, which have also been included in the Restated Financial Statements issued by the Statutory Auditors. Further, the Statutory Auditors have also included a qualified opinion in the Limited Reviewed Financial Information for the six months period ended September 30, 2024.

The Statutory Auditors of our Company have included the following qualified opinion in the Limited Reviewed Financial Information for the six months period ended September 30, 2024:

We draw attention to the financial results, wherein the Company has not received confirmation from one of the vendors having outstanding balance of Rs.49,32,661/- for more than 3 years. Due to nonavailability of confirmation of balance, we are unable to quantify the impact, if any, arising from the same.

The Statutory Auditors of our Company have included the following material qualified opinion and emphasis of matters in the audit report issued for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2024:

24

Basis of Qualified Opinion

“In respect of Inventories during the year under audit, the management has not undertaken any physical verification of the inventories at the year end. We were unable to conduct the annual physical verification at the year-end due to nonavailability of the responsible person. The management has expressed its helplessness to provide us with complete inventory records & reports. However, we have been communicated by the Management that they will engage an Independent Certified Valuer or/and Chartered Accountancy firm for the Physical Verification and Valuation of Inventory as per Ind AS-2 and but it’s still not yet done. Hence, we are unable to comment on the realizable value of the same. The impact of above remarks, presently are not ascertainable and therefore cannot be commented upon.

Emphasis of Matters:

  1. During the previous year, the trade payables of the company included a vendor with an outstanding balance of more than 3 years of ₹ 49.33 lakhs as of March 31, 2023. The vendor was under the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process from January 2018. The management of the company was making all efforts to quantify the amount payable to the vendor. Based on the information provided by the management, the matter was pending before various statutory investigating authorities. However, the company has not received any claims. Hence, in the opinion of management, it is written back in the books to account for the absence of the vendor’s confirmation. (Also refer to Note 37 of the Financial Statement)

  2. During the year, the company has made additional provision for the Doubtful Debts of Trade Receivable amount of ₹ 276.65/- lakhs in the books of account, for which no proper reason or confirmation was provided. There was also no direct balance confirmation given by the third party. The management is of the view that it will be able to effectively monitor the deficit in the future and recover the dues from debtors; however, we are unable to comment on the ultimate realisability of company assets and the balances of trade receivable at the end of the year. (also refer to Note 7 of the financial statement).

The Statutory Auditors of our Company have included the following qualified opinion in the audit report issued for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2023:

We draw attention to Note 37 to the financial statements, wherein the Company has not received confirmation from one of the vendor having outstanding balance of Rs. 49,32,661/- for more than 3 years. Due to nonavailability of confirmation of balance, we are unable to quantify the impact, if any, arising from the same.

The Statutory Auditors of our Company have included the following qualified opinion in the audit report issued for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2022:

We draw attention to Note 39 to the financial statements, wherein the Company has not received confirmation from one of the vendor having outstanding balance of Rs. 49,32,661/- for more than 3 years. Due to non-availability of confirmation of balance, we are unable to quantify the impact, if any, arising from the same.

There can be no assurance that any similar remarks, or matters of emphasis will not form part of our audit reports for the future fiscal periods, which could subject us to additional liabilities due to which our reputation and financial condition may be adversely affected.

4. The Statutory Auditors have included certain qualifications in their reporting under the Companies (Auditors Report) Order, 2020 (“CARO 2020”) in relation to the audit of financial statements for the Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022.

There can be no assurance that our Statutory Auditors will not include such comments in the CARO 2020 reports in the future, or that such qualification will not affect our financial results in future fiscal periods. Investors should consider these matters and related remarks in evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. Any such qualifications in the auditors’ report on our financial statements in the future may also adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares.

5. We generally do business with our customers on purchase order basis and do not enter into long term contracts with them. Our inability to maintain relationships with our customers could have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition .

Our business is dependent on our continuing relationships with our customers. Our Company neither has any long term contract with any of customers nor has any marketing tie up for our products. Any change in the buying pattern of our customers can adversely affect the business of our Company. The loss of or interruption of work by, a significant customer or a number of significant customers or the inability to procure new orders on a regular basis or at all may have an adverse effect on our revenues, cash flows and operations. Our business depends on the continuity of our relationship with our customers. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in maintaining such relationships or increasing the number of such relationships. If we are not able to maintain existing relationships with our current customers or if we are not able to develop new relationships, including if we are not able to provide services on a timely basis or offer services that meet the needs of the customers, the number of customers could decline in the future and as a result, our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected in the future.

6. Our dependency on suppliers for procurement of diamonds which match the requirements of our customers. Any detioration in the quality of diamonds procured from our suppliers, may adversely impact our business operations.

While, we maintain an inventory for supplying diamonds to our customers, however we also source diamonds, in certain cases from third party suppliers. We have not entered into written arrangements with any of these suppliers, and there can be no assurance that these suppliers will continue to be associated with us on reasonable terms, or at all. Although, we work closely with these suppliers, we do not exercise control over them, and our arrangements with these suppliers could involve various risks, including potential interruptions to their operations for factor beyond their or our control, any significant

26

adverse changes in their financial or business conditions, as well as low levels of output or efficiency.

7. We face significant competition. Any failure to compete effectively may have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

In India jewellery trading industry is highly divided between organized sector and unorganized sector. We also face competition from the lab grown diamond and chemical vapor deposition (“ CVD ”) diamond manufacturers which are priced far lower than the natural diamonds and are similar in look and properties of a natural diamond. If we fail to create a position or our existing position deteriorates, the operating results or financial condition will get adversely affected. Aggressive discounting and marketing by competitors may also adversely impact our performance for a temporary period. We may in future experience increase competition from existing or new wholesale traders of jewellery industry. Due to increase in competition, we may temporarily experience downward pressure on prices, lower demand for our products, reduced margins and a loss of market share, all of which would have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

8. Our results of operations are subject to a number of factors, which may be outside our control. Occurrence of any such unanticipated events, may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our results of operations in any given year can be influenced by a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control and may be difficult to predict, including:

  • our ability to acquire and retain clients for our products & services;

  • maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction;

  • costs relating to our operations;

  • adhering to our high quality and process execution standards;

  • pricing policies introduced by our competitors;

  • the timing and nature of, and expenses incurred in, our marketing efforts;

  • recruiting, training, and retaining sufficient skilled technical and management personnel;

  • developing and improving our internal administrative infrastructure, particularly our financial, operational, communications, and other internal systems;

Also, please refer “ Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ” on page 123 for details on the factors affecting our financial results. All of these factors, in combination or alone could negatively impact our revenues and may cause significant fluctuations in our results of operations. This variability and unpredictability could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

9. The proposed objects of the Issue for which funds are being raised have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. In the event there is a shortfall in utilization of Net Proceeds, our Company may have to fund a portion of the objects of the Issue from its internal accruals, which may adversely affect our financials.

The objects of the Issue for which the funds are being raised have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. In the absence of such independent appraisal, the requirement of funds raised through this Issue, as specified in the section titled “ Objects of the Issue ” are based on the company’s estimates and internal research. We may have to revise our management estimates from time to time and consequently our funding requirements may also change. This may result in rescheduling of our expenditure plans and an increase or decrease in our proposed expenditure for a particular object. Deployment of these funds is at the discretion of the management and the Board of Directors of the company and will not be subject to monitoring by any independent agency. Any inability on our part to effectively utilize the Issue proceeds could adversely affect our financials.

10. We may not be able to maintain our current levels of profitability due to increased costs or reduced spreads or margins.

Our business strategy involves a relatively high level of ongoing interaction with our clients. We believe that this involvement is an important part of developing our relationship with our clients, identifying new cross selling opportunities and monitoring our performance. However, this level of involvement also entails higher levels of costs and also requires a relatively higher gross spread, or margin, on the various products we offer in order to maintain profitability. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current levels of profitability if the gross spreads on our products were to reduce substantially, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

27

11. If we are unable to establish and maintain an effective system of internal controls and compliances, our business and reputation could be adversely affected.

We manage our internal compliance by monitoring and evaluating internal controls and ensuring all relevant statutory and regulatory compliances. The Audit Committee along with the Chief Financial Officer and the Company Secretary and Compliance Officer reviews the internal controls and compliances of our Company.

However, there can be no assurance that deficiencies in our internal controls will not arise or that we will be able to implement and continue to maintain adequate measures to rectify or mitigate any such deficiencies in our internal controls, in a timely manner or at all. If we are unable to establish and maintain an effective system of internal controls and compliances, our business and reputation could be adversely affected.

12. We depend on the accuracy and completeness of information about customers and counterparties and any misrepresentation, errors in or incompleteness of such information could cause our business to suffer.

In deciding whether to extend credit or enter into other transactions with customers, we rely on information furnished to us by or on behalf of customers. We may also rely on certain representations from our customers as to the accuracy and completeness of that information. For ascertaining the creditworthiness, we do not obtain any independent support from credit information companies or credit bureaus and on independent valuers in relation to the value of the net worth of such parties. Our reliance on any misleading information given may affect our judgment of credit worthiness of potential customers, which may affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

13. Demand for our products is subject to rapid and unpredictable changes in fashion trends and consumer preferences, and our inability to anticipate and address such changes may adversely affect our business prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

The jewellery industry, like other luxury retail industries, is subject to rapid and unpredictable changes in fashion trends and customer preferences. Customer preferences for jewellery designs and types may vary significantly from region to region in India. Also, trends in fashion today change rapidly and a particular jewellery design may go out of trend resulting in increased unsold inventory. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to adopt the latest trends immediately, thus giving our competitors a first mover advantage, if they are able to identify the changes before we do. Furthermore, the increasing popularity of branded jewellery merchandise may adversely impact our business prospects and revenues if we are unable to increase our sales to branded jewellery retailers. In addition, the availability and consumer acceptance of alternates such as diamond jewellery, silver or platinum jewellery or a shift in customer preference to other luxury products or a rise in use of imitation jewellery products, may also adversely affect our business. Our inability to anticipate, identify and react appropriately or in a timely manner to customer preferences, or failure to develop and implement customer oriented sales policies that influence customer purchase decisions, could result in a decrease in consumer acceptance of our products, a diminished brand image and market share, which could result in lower profits. These changes can adversely affect our business prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

14. Failure to manage our inventory could have an adverse effect on our net sales, profitability, cash flow and liquidity.

The results of operations of our business are dependent on our ability to effectively manage our inventory and stocks. To effectively manage our inventory, we must be able to accurately estimate customer demand and supply requirement accordingly. If our management has misjudged expected customer demand it could adversely impact the results by causing either a shortage of products or an accumulation of excess inventory.

15. We have incurred losses in the recent past. Continuous financial losses incurred by us may be perceived adversely by external parties such as clients and bankers, which could affect our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operation.

Our Company has incurred losses in the recent past, the details of which are provided below:

There can be no assurance that our Company will not report losses in any future periods, or that there may not be an adverse effect on our reputation or business as a result of such losses. Such losses may be perceived adversely by external parties such as customers, bankers, and suppliers, which may affect our reputation. In addition, any operating losses could adversely affect the overall operations of our Company and may have an adverse effect on our operations and financials.

16. Any adverse change in regulations governing our products, may adversely impact our business prospects and results of operations.

An adverse change in the regulations governing the development of our products and their usage by our customers, including the development of licensing requirements and technical standards and specifications or the imposition of onerous requirements, may have an adverse impact on our operations. Our Company may be required to alter our distribution process and target markets and incur capital expenditure to achieve compliance with such new regulatory requirements applicable to us and our customers.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with the regulatory requirements. If we fail to comply with new statutory or regulatory requirements, there could be a delay in the submission or grant of approval for marketing new products or we may be required to withdraw existing products from the market. Moreover, if we fail to comply with the various conditions attached to such approvals, licenses, registrations and permissions once received, the relevant regulatory body may suspend, curtail or revoke our ability to market such products and/or we may be deemed to be in breach of our arrangements with our customers. Consequently, there is an inherent risk that we may inadvertently fail to comply with such regulations, which could lead to forced shutdowns and other sanctions imposed by the relevant authorities, as well as the withholding or delay in receipt of regulatory approvals for our new products, which may adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

17. Subsequent to acquisition of the Target Entities, our Company may require significant amount of working capital for a continuing growth. Our inability to meet our working capital requirements may adversely affect our results of operations.

Presently, our Company does not have any significant working capital requirements, however subsequent to diversification of our business activities, our business may require a significant amount of working capital. We fund a majority of our working capital requirements in the ordinary course of business from banks facilities and internal accruals. Subsequent to venturing into the automotive industry, our Company may require additional working capital for funding its incremental working capital requirements and releasing the internal accruals deployed in working capital. The funding of the incremental working capital requirements will lead to a consequent increase in our profitability, ability to utilize internal accruals for growth opportunities and achieving the proposed targets as per our business plan. Further, we are also required to meet the increasing demand and for achieving the same, adequate stocks have to be maintained which requires sufficient working capital. In the event, we are unable to source the required amount of working capital for addressing such increased demand of our products, we might not be able to efficiently satisfy the demand of our customers. Even if we are able to source the required amount of funds, we cannot assure you that such funds would be sufficient to meet our cost estimates and that any increase in the expenses will not affect the price of our products.

18. We are subject to cyber security risks and security breaches and may incur increasing costs in an effort to minimize those risks and to respond to cyber incidents.

We devote significant resources to maintain and regularly upgrade our systems and processes that are designed to protect the security of our computer systems, software, networks and other technology assets and the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information belonging to us and our customers, our security measures may not provide absolute security. Despite our efforts to ensure the integrity of our systems, it is possible that we may not be able to anticipate or to implement effective preventive measures against all security breaches of these types, especially because the techniques used change frequently or are not recognized until launched, and because cyber-attacks can originate from a wide variety of sources, including third parties outside the Company such as persons who are involved with organized crime or associated with external service providers or who may be linked to terrorist organizations or hostile foreign governments.

A successful penetration or circumvention of the security of our systems could cause serious negative consequences, including significant disruption of our operations, misappropriation of our confidential information or damage to our computers or systems, and could result in violations of applicable privacy and other laws, financial loss to us or to our customers, loss of confidence in our security measures, significant litigation exposure, and affect to our reputation, all of

29

which could have a material adverse effect on us.

Our servers are also vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins, and similar disruptions. We may need to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches or to address problems caused by breaches. Security breaches, including any breach of our systems or by persons with whom we have commercial relationships that result in the unauthorized release of customers’ or businesses’ personal information, could damage our reputation and expose us to a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability.

19. We may be unable to obtain, renew or maintain statutory and regulatory permits, licenses and approvals required to operate our business which could result in an adverse effect on our results of operations. We require certain statutory and regulatory permits, licenses and approvals for our business.

We may also need to apply for more approvals in the future including renewal of approvals that may expire from time to time. These approvals are subject to periodic renewal. There can be no assurance that the relevant authorities will issue such permits or approvals in the timeframe anticipated by us or at all. Our failure to renew, maintain or obtain the required permits or approvals within the requisite time may result in the interruption of our operations and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Any failure or delay in obtaining such approvals, permits and licenses, may affect our ability to continue our operations, which may in turn have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. The aforesaid permits, licenses and approvals are subject to several conditions, and we cannot assure you that we shall be able to continuously meet such conditions or be able to prove compliance with such conditions to statutory authorities, which may lead to cancellation, revocation or suspension of relevant permits/licenses/approvals. Further, we cannot assure you that penalties under applicable laws would not be imposed on us in the event of noncompliance or alleged non-compliance with any terms or conditions thereof, or pursuant to any regulatory action.

20. We have experienced negative cash flows in relation to our operating activities and investment activities in recent years/periods. Any negative cash flows in the future could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We have experienced negative cash flows from operations in the recent past. Our cash flow for the Nine months period ended December 31, 2024 and the Financial Years ended March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 are set forth in the table below:

For further details, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of our Financial Condition and Results of Operations” on page 123.

21. Our success largely depends upon the knowledge and experience of our Promoters, Directors and our Key Managerial Personnel. Loss of any of our Directors and key managerial personnel or our ability to attract and retain them could adversely affect our business, operations and financial condition.

The growth and success of our Company’s future significantly depends upon the experience of our Promoters and continued services and the management skills of our Key Managerial Personnel and the guidance of our Promoters and Directors for development of business strategies, monitoring its successful implementation and meeting future challenges. We believe the expertise, experience and continued efforts of our Key Managerial Personnel and their inputs are valuable to for the operations of our Company. Our future success and growth depend largely on our ability to attract, motivate and retain the

30

continued service of our highly skilled management personnel. Our Company has never been faced with a challenge of high rate of attrition of our Key Management Personnel in the past, however, any attrition of our experienced Key Managerial Personnel, would adversely impact our growth strategy. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in recruiting and retaining a sufficient number of personnel with the requisite skills to replace those Key Managerial Personnel who leave. In the event we are unable to motivate and retain our key managerial personnel and thereby lose the services of our highly skilled Key Managerial Personnel may adversely affect the operations, financial condition and profitability of our Company and thereby hampering and adversely affecting our ability to expand our business. For further details on our Directors and Key Managerial Personnel, please refer to the chapter titled ― “ Our Management ” on page 74 of this Letter of Offer.

22. Increased losses due to fraud, employee negligence, theft or similar incidents may have an adverse impact on us.

Our business and the industry in which we operate are vulnerable to the problem of pilferage by employees, damage, misappropriation of cash and inventory management and logistical errors. An increase in product losses due to such factors at our place of operation may require us to install additional security and surveillance equipment and incur additional expenses towards inventory management and handling. We cannot assure you whether these measures will successfully prevent such losses. Further, there are inherent risks in cash management as part of our operations, which include theft and robbery, employee fraud and the risks involved in transferring cash to banks. Additionally, in case of losses due to theft, financial misappropriation, fire, breakage or damage caused by other casualties, we cannot assure you that we will be able to recover from our insurers the full amount of any such loss in a timely manner, or at all. In addition, if we file claims under an insurance policy it could lead to increases in the insurance premiums payable by us or the termination of coverage under the relevant policy. While, the aforementioned instances have not occurred in the past, however occurrence of any such instances in the future may have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

23. Our future fund requirements, in the form of further 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 further Issue of Equity 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 favorable to the then existing Shareholders. If such funds are raised in the form of loans or debt or preference shares, then it may substantially increase our fixed interest/dividend burden and decrease our cash flows, thus adversely affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition.

24. Any future issuance of Equity Shares, or convertible securities or other equity-linked securities by our Company may dilute your shareholding and any sale of Equity Shares by our Promoters or members of our Promoter Group may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.

Any future issuance of the Equity Shares, convertible securities or securities linked to the Equity Shares by our Company may dilute your shareholding in our Company; adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares and our ability to raise capital through further issue of our securities. In addition, any perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur could also affect the trading price of the Equity Shares. We cannot assure you that we will not issue additional Equity Shares. The disposal of Equity Shares by any of our Promoters and Promoter Group, or the perception that such sales may occur may significantly affect the trading price of the Equity Shares. We cannot assure you that our Promoters and Promoter Group will not dispose of, pledge or encumber their Equity Shares in the future.

25. Rights of shareholders under Indian laws may be more limited than under the laws of other jurisdictions.

Indian legal principles related to corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities, and shareholders’ rights may differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction. Shareholders’ rights including in relation to class actions, under Indian law may not be as extensive as shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions. Investors may have more difficulty in asserting their rights as shareholder in an Indian company than as shareholder of a corporation in another jurisdiction.

26. Our insurance coverage may not adequately protect us against losses.

We keep insurance coverage that we believe is sufficient for our activities. Our insurance policies, on the other hand, may not provide appropriate coverage in some situations and are subject to deductibles, exclusions, and policy limits. We cannot, however, guarantee that the terms of our insurance policies will be adequate to cover any damage or loss we incur, that such coverage will continue to be available on reasonable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims, or

31

that the insurer will not deny coverage for any future claim.

27. There are outstanding litigations involving our Company, our Promoter and our Directors, if determined adversely, may adversely affect our business and financial condition.

As on the date of this Letter of Offer, our Company, our Promoter and our Directors are involved in certain legal proceedings. These legal proceedings are pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts and tribunals. The amounts claimed in these proceedings have been disclosed to the extent ascertainable and include amounts claimed jointly and/or severally from us and/or other parties, as the case may be. We cannot assure you that these legal proceedings will be decided in favour of our Company and our Directors, as the case may be, or that no further liability will arise out of these proceedings. We may incur significant expenses in such legal proceedings and we may have to make provisions in our financial statements, which could increase our expenses and liabilities. Any adverse decision may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

A summary of the pending tax proceedings and other material litigations involving our Company, our Promoter and our Directors are provided below:

There are no pending litigations on our Company, our Promoters and Directors.

For further details, please refer to the section titled “ Outstanding Litigations and Defaults ” on page 138 of this Letter of Offer.

28. Our trademarks used by us are currently not registered in the name of our Company. Failure to protect our intellectual property rights may adversely affect our competitive business position, financial condition and profitability.

Our name and logo are not registered under the provisions of Trademark Act, 1999 and therefore may be subject to counterfeiting or imitation which would adversely impact our reputation and lead to loss of customer confidence, reduced sales and higher administrative costs. Thus, we cannot guarantee that the application for registration of some of our trademarks made by us will be allowed. In case we are unable to obtain the registration for the said trademarks in our name, we may suffer reputation loss, loss of customers etc. as we do not enjoy any statutory protection under the Trade Marks Act, 1999 which is important to retain our brand image. Further even if our name and logo are registered, we cannot assure that third parties will not infringe on our intellectual property, thereby causing damage to our business prospects, reputation and goodwill.

29. We do not own our Registered Office. Disruption of our rights as licensee/ lessee or termination of the agreement with our licensors/ lessors would adversely impact our business.

The Registered Office of our Company is taken on lease for a fixed tenure. The lease is renewable on mutually agreed terms. Upon termination of the lease, we are required to return the said business premises to the Lessor/Licensor, unless renewed. There can be no assurance that the term of the agreements will be renewed and in the event the Lessor/Licensor terminates or does not renew the agreements on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, and we are required to vacate our offices, we may be required to identify alternative premises and enter into fresh lease or leave and license agreement. We may have to find new premises which may lead to higher costs. However, since the registered office premises are owned by our promoter/promoter group, we do not foresee any problem in renewal.

30. Our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group have significant control over the Company and have the ability to direct our business and affairs; their interests may conflict with your interests as a shareholder.

After the completion of the Issue, our Promoters and the members of the Promoter Group will hold approximately 67% of the paid-up equity share capital of our Company assuming full subscription to the Rights Entitlement in the Issue. Our Promoters and the members of the Promoter Group holding Equity Shares in our Company, have undertaken to fully subscribe for their Rights Entitlement. They reserve the right to subscribe for their Rights Entitlement pursuant to any renunciation made by any member of the Promoter Group to another member of the Promoter Group. Such subscription for Equity Shares over and above their Rights Entitlement, if allotted, may result in an increase in their percentage shareholding above their current percentage shareholding. So long as the Promoters have a majority holding, they will be able to elect the entire Board and control most matters affecting us, including the appointment and removal of the officers of our Company, our business strategy and policies and financing. Further, the extent of the Promoters’ shareholding in our Company may result in the delay or prevention of a change of management or control of our Company, even if such a transaction may be

32

beneficial to the other shareholders of our Company.

31. Our Promoters are not the original promoter of our Company and have acquired control of our Company on in 2023, therefore we cannot trace certain historical records of our Company.

Our Promoters are not the original Promoters of the Company and have acquired control of our Company in the year 2023. In view of the change in management, we are unable to access certain historical records of the Company, such as prospectus issued during the initial public offer of the Company, minutes, statutory forms, etc . Accordingly, we have relied on other documents, including annual returns and the statutory register of members of the Company. We cannot assure you that on account of any of the missing records, we will not be subject to any penalties imposed by the relevant regulatory authority in this respect.

32. We have in past entered into related party transactions and we may continue to do so in the future.

As of December 31, 2024, March 31, 2024, March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, we have not entered into several related party transactions with our Promoters, individuals and entities forming a part of our promoter group relating to our operations besides salaries paid to the Managing Director, Wholetime Director, Company Secretary and CFO. In addition, we have not entered into transactions with any other related parties. For further details, please see the section titled “ Financial Information” at page 88 of this Letter of Offer.

While we believe that all our related party transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis, we cannot assure you that we may not have achieved more favourable terms had such transactions been entered into with unrelated parties. There can be no assurance that such transactions, individually or taken together, will not have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition, including because of potential conflicts of interest or otherwise. In addition, our business and growth prospects may decline if we cannot benefit from our relationships with them in the future.

33. Our Promoters, Directors and Key Managerial Personnel have interests in our Company other than reimbursement of expenses incurred or normal remuneration or benefits.

Our Promoters, Directors and Key Managerial Personnel, may be deemed to be interested in our Company, in addition to the regular remuneration or benefits, reimbursements of expenses, Equity Shares held by them or their relatives, their dividend or bonus entitlement, benefits arising from their directorship in our Company. Our Promoters, Directors and Key Managerial Personnel may also be interested to the extent of any transaction entered into by our Company with any other company or firm in which they are directors or partners. For further details, please see the section titled “Financial Information” at page 88 of this - Letter of Offer.

There can be no assurance that our Promoters, Directors, Key Management Personnel will exercise their rights as shareholders to the benefit and best interest of our Company. Our Promoters and members of our Promoter Group will continue to exercise significant control over our Company, including being able to control the composition of our Board of Directors and determine decisions requiring simple or special majority voting of shareholders, and our other shareholders may be unable to affect the outcome of such voting. Our Directors and our Key Management Personnel may take or block actions with respect to our business, which may conflict with the best interests of our Company or that of minority shareholders.

34. Our ability to pay dividends in the future may be affected by any material adverse effect on our future earnings, financial condition or cash flows.

Our ability to pay dividends in future will depend on our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements. Our business is working capital intensive and we are required to obtain consents from certain of our lenders prior to the declaration of dividend as per the terms of the agreements executed with them. We may be unable to pay dividends in the near or medium term, and our future dividend policy will depend on our capital requirements and financing arrangements in respect of our operations, financial condition and results of operations. Our Company has not declared dividends in the past, and there can be no assurance that our Company will declare dividends in the future.

35. The deployment of funds is entirely at our discretion and as per the details mentioned in the chapter titled “Objects of the Issue”.

As the issue size is not more than ₹10,000 lakhs, under Regulation 82 of the SEBI ICDR Regulations it is not required that

33

a monitoring agency be appointed by our Company, for overseeing the deployment and utilisation of funds raised through this Issue. Therefore, the deployment of the funds towards the Objects of this Issue is entirely at the discretion of our Board of Directors and is not subject to monitoring by external independent agency. Our Board of Directors along with the Audit Committee will monitor the utilisation of Issue proceeds and shall have the flexibility in applying the proceeds of this Issue. However, the management of our Company shall not have the power to alter the objects of this Issue except with the approval of the Shareholders of the Company given by way of a special resolution in a general meeting, in the manner specified in Section 27 of the Companies Act, 2013.

For further details, please refer to the chapter titled ― “ Objects of the Issue ” on page 53 of this Letter of Offer.

36. As the securities of our Company are listed on BSE Limited, our Company is subject to certain obligations and reporting requirements under the SEBI Listing Regulations. Any non-compliances/delay in complying with such obligations and reporting requirements may render us liable to prosecution and/or penalties.

The Equity Shares of our Company are listed on BSE, therefore we are subject to the obligations and reporting requirements prescribed under the SEBI Listing Regulations, as well as requirements under the Companies Act for a listed Company. There have been instances in the past wherein, our Company has failed to comply with the requirements of the SEBI Listing Regulations in a timely manner. Further, our Company has inadvertently failed to ratify certain related party transactions undertaken with Promoters and members of Promoter Group, in compliance with Regulation 23 of the SEBI Listing Regulations.

Our Company endeavours to comply with all such obligations/reporting requirements, there may be nondisclosures/delayed/erroneous disclosures and/or any other violations which might have been committed by us, and the same may result into Stock Exchange and/or SEBI imposing penalties, issuing warnings and show cause notices against us and/or taking actions as provided under the SEBI Act and Rules and Regulations made there under and applicable SEBI Circulars. Any such adverse regulatory action or development could affect our business reputation, divert management attention, and result in a material adverse effect on our business prospects and financial performance and on the trading price of the Equity Shares.

37. We have not commissioned an industry report for the disclosures made in the chapter titled “Industry Overview” and made disclosures on the basis of the data available on the internet and such data has not been independently verified by us.

We have neither commissioned an industry report, nor sought consent from the quoted website source for the disclosures which need to be made in the chapter titled “ Industry Overview ” of this Letter of Offer. We have made disclosures in the said chapter on the basis of the relevant industry related data available online for which relevant consents have not been obtained. We have not independently verified such data. We cannot assure you that any assumptions made are correct or will not change and, accordingly, our position in the market may differ from that presented in this Letter of Offer. Further, the industry data mentioned in this Letter of Offer or sources from which the data has been collected are not recommendations to invest in our Company. Accordingly, investors should read the industry related disclosure in this Letter of Offer in this context.

ISSUE SPECIFIC RISKS

1. We will not distribute the Draft Letter of Offer, this Letter of Offer, the Abridged Letter of Offer, Application Form and Rights Entitlement Letter to overseas Shareholders who have not provided an address in India for service of documents.

The Issue Materials will not be distributed to addresses outside India on account of restrictions that apply to circulation of such materials in overseas jurisdictions. However, the Companies Act, 2013 requires companies to serve documents at any address which may be provided by the members as well as through e-mail. Presently, there is lack of clarity under the Companies Act, 2013 and the rules made thereunder with respect to distribution of Issue Materials in overseas jurisdictions where such distribution may be prohibited under the applicable laws of such jurisdictions. While we have requested

34

all the shareholders to provide an address in India for the purposes of distribution of Issue Materials, we cannot assure you that the regulator or authorities would not adopt a different view with respect to compliance with the Companies Act, 2013 and may subject us to fines or penalties.

2. SEBI has recently, by way of SEBI Master Circular, streamlined the process of rights issues. You should follow the instructions carefully, as stated in such SEBI circulars, and in this Letter of Offer.

The concept of crediting Rights Entitlements into the demat accounts of the Eligible Equity Shareholders has recently been introduced by the SEBI. Accordingly, the process for such Rights Entitlements has been recently devised by capital market intermediaries. Eligible Equity Shareholders are encouraged to exercise caution, carefully follow the requirements as stated in the SEBI Master Circular and ensure completion of all necessary steps in relation to providing/updating their demat account details in a timely manner. For details, see “ Terms of the Issue ” on page 150 of this Letter of Offer.

In accordance with Regulation 77A of the SEBI ICDR Regulations read with the SEBI Master Circular, the credit of Rights Entitlements and Allotment of Rights Equity Shares shall be made in dematerialized form only. Prior to the Issue Opening Date, our Company shall credit the Rights Entitlements to (i) the demat accounts of the Eligible Equity Shareholders holding the Equity Shares in dematerialised form; and (ii) a demat suspense escrow account opened by our Company, for the Eligible Equity Shareholders which would comprise Rights Entitlements relating to (a) Equity Shares held in a demat suspense account pursuant to Regulation 39 of the SEBI Listing Regulations; or (b) Equity Shares held in the account of IEPF authority; or (c) the demat accounts of the Eligible Equity Shareholder which are frozen or suspended for debit or credit or details of which are unavailable with our Company or with the Registrar on the Record Date; or (d) credit of the Rights Entitlements returned / reversed / failed; or (e) the ownership of the Equity Shares currently under dispute, including any court proceedings.

3. The Rights Entitlement of Eligible Equity Shareholders holding Equity Shares in physical form (“Physical Shareholder”) may lapse in case they fail to furnish the details of their demat account to the Registrar.

In accordance with the circular SEBI Master Circular, the credit of Rights Entitlement and Allotment of Equity Shares shall be made in dematerialised form only. Accordingly, the Rights Entitlements of the Physical Shareholders shall be credited in a suspense escrow demat account opened by our Company during the Issue Period.

Further, pursuant to a press release dated December 03, 2018 issued by the SEBI, with effect from April 01, 2019, a transfer of listed Equity Shares cannot be processed unless the Equity Shares are held in dematerialized form. For details, please refer chapter “Terms of the Issue” on page 150 of this Letter of Offer.

4. Failure to exercise or sell the Rights Entitlements will cause the Rights Entitlements to lapse without compensation and result in a dilution of shareholding.

The Rights Entitlements that are not exercised prior to the end of the Issue Closing Date will expire and become null and void, and Eligible Equity Shareholders will not receive any consideration for them. The proportionate ownership and voting interest in our Company of Eligible Equity Shareholders who fail (or are not able) to exercise their Rights Entitlements will be diluted. Even if you elect to sell your unexercised Rights Entitlements, the consideration you receive for them may not be sufficient to fully compensate you for the dilution of your percentage ownership of the equity share capital of our Company that may be caused as a result of the Issue. Renouncees may not be able to apply in case of failure in completion of renunciation through off-market transfer in such a manner that the Rights Entitlements are credited to the demat account of the Renouncees prior to the Issue Closing Date. Further, in case, the Rights Entitlements do not get credited in time, in case of On Market Renunciation, such Renouncee will not be able to apply in this Issue with respect to such Rights Entitlements. For details, see “ Terms of the Issue ” on page 150 of this Letter of Offer.

5. Any future issuance of Equity Shares, or convertible securities or other equity-linked securities by our Company may dilute your shareholding and any sale of Equity Shares by our Promoters or members of our Promoter Group may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.

35

Any future issuance of the Equity Shares, convertible securities or securities linked to the Equity Shares by our Company may dilute your shareholding in our Company; adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares and our ability to raise capital through an issue of our securities. In addition, any perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur could also affect the trading price of the Equity Shares. We cannot assure you that we will not issue additional Equity Shares. The disposal of Equity Shares by any of our Promoters and Promoter Group, or the perception that such sales may occur may significantly affect the trading price of the Equity Shares. We cannot assure you that our Promoters and Promoter Group will not dispose of, pledge or encumber their Equity Shares in the future.

6. Investors may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of the Equity Shares.

Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares of an Indian company are generally taxable in India. Accordingly, you may be subject to payment of long-term capital gains tax in India, in addition to payment of STT, on the sale of any Equity Shares held for more than 12 months. STT will be levied on and collected by a domestic stock exchange on which the Equity Shares are sold. Further, any gain realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less will be subject to short-term capital gains tax in India. Capital gains arising from the sale of the Equity Shares may be partially or completely exempt from taxation in India in cases where such exemption is provided under a 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 jurisdiction on gains made upon the sale of the Equity Shares.

7. Applicants to this Issue are not allowed to withdraw their Applications after the Issue Closing Date.

In terms of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, Applicants in this Issue are not allowed to withdraw their Applications after the Issue Closing Date. The Allotment in this Issue and the credit of such Equity Shares to the Applicant’s demat account with its depository participant shall be completed within such period as prescribed under the applicable laws. There is no assurance, however, that material adverse changes in the international or national monetary, financial, political or economic conditions or other events in the nature of force majeure, material adverse changes in our business, results of operation, cash flows or financial condition, or other events affecting the Applicant’s decision to invest in the Equity Shares, would not arise between the Issue Closing Date and the date of Allotment in this Issue. Occurrence of any such events after the Issue Closing Date could also impact the market price of our Equity Shares. The Applicants shall not have the right to withdraw their applications in the event of any such occurrence. We cannot assure you that the market price of the Equity Shares will not decline below the Issue Price. To the extent the market price for the Equity Shares declines below the Issue Price after the Issue Closing Date, the shareholder will be required to purchase Equity Shares at a price that will be higher than the actual market price for the Equity Shares at that time. Should that occur, the shareholder will suffer an immediate unrealized loss as a result. We may complete the Allotment even if such events may limit the Applicants’ ability to sell our Equity Shares after this Issue or cause the trading price of our Equity Shares to decline.

8. Investors will be subject to market risks until the Equity Shares credited to the investors demat account are listed and permitted to trade.

Investors can start trading the Equity Shares allotted to them only after they have been credited to an investor’s demat account, are listed and permitted to trade. Since the Equity Shares are currently traded on the Stock Exchange, investors will be subject to market risk from the date they pay for the Equity Shares to the date when trading approval is granted for the same. Further, there can be no assurance that the Equity Shares allocated to an investor will be credited to the investor’s demat account or that trading in the Equity Shares will commence in a timely manner.

9. You may not receive the Equity Shares that you subscribe in the Issue until fifteen days after the date on which this Issue closes, which will subject you to market risk.

The Equity Shares that you subscribe in the Issue may not be credited to your demat account with the depository participants until approximately 15 days from the Issue Closing Date. You can start trading such Equity Shares only after receipt of the listing and trading approval in respect thereof. There can be no assurance that the Equity Shares allocated to you will be credited to your demat account, or that trading in the Equity Shares will commence within the specified time period, subjecting you to market risk for such period.

36

10. The trading price of our Equity Shares may be subject to volatility and you may not be able to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price.

The trading price of our Equity Shares may fluctuate after this Issue due to a variety of factors, including our results of operations and the performance of our business, competitive conditions, general economic, political and social factors, the performance of the Indian and global economy and significant developments in India’s fiscal regime, volatility in the Indian and global securities market, performance of our competitors, changes in the estimates of our performance or recommendations by financial analysts and announcements by us or others regarding contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, or capital commitments. In addition, if the stock markets in general experience a loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our Equity Shares could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or operating results. The trading price of our Equity Shares might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in our industry even if these events do not directly affect us. Each of these factors, among others, could adversely affect the price of our Equity Shares.

11. Holders of Equity Shares could be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian law and could thereby suffer future dilution of their ownership position.

Under the Companies Act, any company incorporated in India must offer its holders of equity shares pre-emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of shares to maintain their existing ownership percentages prior to the issuance of any new equity shares, unless the pre-emptive rights have been waived by the adoption of a special resolution by holders of three-fourths of the shares voted on such resolution, unless our Company has obtained government approval to issue without such rights. However, if the law of the jurisdiction that you are in does not permit the exercise of such pre-emptive rights without us filing an offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority in such jurisdiction, you will be unable to exercise such pre-emptive rights unless we make such a filing. We may elect not to file a registration statement in relation to pre-emptive rights otherwise available by Indian law to you. To the extent that you are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights granted in respect of the Equity Shares, your proportional interests in us would be reduced.

12. Fluctuation in the exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and foreign currencies may adversely affect the value of our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.

On listing, our Equity Shares will be quoted in Indian Rupees on the Stock Exchange. Any dividends in respect of our Equity Shares will also be paid in Indian Rupees and subsequently converted into the relevant foreign currency for repatriation, if required. Any adverse movement in currency exchange rates during the time that it takes to undertake such conversion may reduce the net dividend to foreign investors. In addition, any adverse movement in currency exchange rates during a delay in repatriating outside India the proceeds from a sale of Equity Shares, for example, because of a delay in regulatory approvals that may be required for the sale of Equity Shares may reduce the proceeds received by equity shareholders. For example, the exchange rate between the Rupee and the U.S. dollar has fluctuated substantially in recent years and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future, which may adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares and returns on our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.

13. Investors will not have the option of getting the allotment of Equity Shares in physical form.

In accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations, the Equity Shares shall be issued only in dematerialized form. Investors will not have the option of getting the allotment of Equity Shares in physical form. The Equity Shares Allotted to the Applicants who do not have demat accounts or who have not specified their demat details, will be kept in abeyance till receipt of the details of the demat account of such Applicants. For details, see “Terms of the Issue” on page 150 of this Letter of Offer. This may impact the ability of our shareholders to receive the Equity Shares in the Issue.

14. There is no guarantee that our Equity Shares will be listed, or continue to be listed, on the Indian stock exchanges in a timely manner, or at all, and prospective investors will not be able to immediately sell their Equity Shares on the Stock Exchange.

In accordance with Indian law and practice, final approval for listing and trading of our Equity Shares will not be applied for or granted until after our Equity Shares have been issued and allotted. Such approval will require the submission of all other

37

relevant documents authorizing the issuance of our Equity Shares. Accordingly, there could be a failure or delay in listing our Equity Shares on the Stock Exchange, which would adversely affect your ability to sell our Equity Shares.

15. Rights of shareholders under Indian laws may be more limited than under the laws of other jurisdictions.

Indian legal principles related to corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities, and shareholders’ rights may differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction. Shareholders’ rights including in relation to class actions, under Indian law may not be as extensive as shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions. Investors may have more difficulty in asserting their rights as shareholder in an Indian company than as shareholder of a corporation in another jurisdiction.

EXTERNAL RISK FACTORS

16. Significant differences exist between Ind AS, Indian GAAP and other accounting principles, such as US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), which investors may be more familiar with and consider material to their assessment of our financial condition.

Our summary statements of assets and liabilities and summary statements of profit and loss (including other comprehensive income), cash flows and changes in equity, as per the Financial Statements, have been prepared in accordance with the Ind GAAP notified under the Companies Act, 2013, read with the applicable Rules, the SEBI Circular and the Prospectus Guidance Note.

We have not attempted to quantify the impact of Ind AS, US GAAP, IFRS or any other system of accounting principles on the financial data included in this Letter of Offer, nor do we provide a reconciliation of our financial statements to those of Ind AS, US GAAP, IFRS or any other accounting principles. US GAAP and IFRS differ in significant respects from Ind AS and Indian GAAP. Accordingly, the degree to which the Financial Information included in this Letter of Offer will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Ind AS, Indian GAAP and the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting practices on the financial disclosures presented in this Letter of Offer should accordingly be limited.

17. Political, economic or other factors that are beyond our control may have adversely affect our business and results of operations.

The Indian economy and its securities markets are influenced by economic developments and volatility in securities markets in other countries. Investors’ reactions to developments in one country may have adverse effects on the market price of securities of companies located in other countries, including India. Negative economic developments, such as rising fiscal or trade deficits, or a default on national debt, in other emerging market countries may also affect investor confidence and cause increased volatility in Indian securities markets and indirectly affect the Indian economy in general. Any of these factors could depress economic activity and restrict our access to capital, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and reduce the price of our Equity Shares. Any financial disruption could have an adverse effect on our business, future financial performance, shareholders’ equity and the price of our Equity Shares.

We are dependent on domestic, regional and global economic and market conditions. Our performance, growth and market price of our Equity Shares are and will be dependent to a large extent on the health of the economy in which we operate. There have been periods of slowdown in the economic growth of India. Demand for our products or services may be adversely affected by an economic downturn in domestic, regional and global economies.

Economic growth is affected by various factors including domestic consumption and savings, balance of trade movements, namely export demand and movements in key imports, global economic uncertainty and liquidity crisis, volatility in exchange currency rates, and annual rainfall which affects agricultural production.

Consequently, any future slowdown in the Indian economy could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Also, a change in the government or a change in the economic and deregulation policies could adversely affect economic conditions prevalent in the areas in which we operate in general and our business in particular and high rates of inflation in India could increase our costs without proportionately increasing our revenues, and as such decrease our operating margins.

38

18. A slowdown in economic growth in India could cause our business to suffer.

We are incorporated in India, and all of our assets and employees are located in India. As a result, we are highly dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and our results of operations are significantly affected by factors influencing the Indian economy. A slowdown in the Indian economy could adversely affect our business, including our ability to grow our assets, the quality of our assets, and our ability to implement our strategy.

Factors that may adversely affect the Indian economy, and hence our results of operations, may include:

  • any increase in Indian interest rates or inflation;

  • any scarcity of credit or other financing in India;

  • prevailing income conditions among Indian consumers and Indian corporations;

  • volatility in, and actual or perceived trends in trading activity on, India’s principal stock exchanges;

  • variations in exchange rates;

  • changes in India’s tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies;

  • political instability, terrorism or military conflict in India or in countries in the region or globally, including in India’s various neighboring countries;

  • prevailing regional or global economic conditions; and

  • other significant regulatory or economic developments in or affecting India

19. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application of corporate and tax laws, may adversely affect our business, prospects and results of operations.

The regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving and subject to change. Such changes, including the instances mentioned below, may adversely affect our business, results of operations and prospects, to the extent that we are unable to suitably respond to and comply with any such changes in applicable law and policy.

The Government of India has issued a notification dated September 29, 2016 notifying Income Computation and Disclosure Standards (“ ICDS ”), thereby creating a new framework for the computation of taxable income. The ICDS became applicable from the assessment year for Fiscal 2018 and subsequent years. The adoption of ICDS is expected to significantly alter the way companies compute their taxable income, as ICDS deviates from several concepts that are followed under general accounting standards, including Indian GAAP and Ind AS. In addition, ICDS shall be applicable for the computation of income for tax purposes but shall not be applicable for the computation of income for minimum alternate tax. There can be no assurance that the adoption of ICDS will not adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

  • the General Anti Avoidance Rules (“GAAR”) have been made effective from April 01, 2017. The tax consequences of the GAAR provisions being applied to an arrangement could result in denial of tax benefit amongst other consequences. In the absence of any precedents on the subject, the application of these provisions is uncertain. If the GAAR provisions are made applicable to our Company, it may have an adverse tax impact on us.

  • a comprehensive national GST regime that combines taxes and levies by the Central and State Governments into a unified rate structure, which came into effect from July 01, 2017. We cannot provide any assurance as to any aspect of the tax regime following implementation of the GST. Any future increases or amendments may affect the overall tax efficiency of companies operating in India and may result in significant additional taxes becoming payable. If, as a result of a particular tax risk materializing, the tax costs associated with certain transactions are greater than anticipated, it could affect the profitability of such transactions.

In addition, unfavourable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations including foreign investment laws governing our business, operations and group structure could result in us being deemed to be in contravention of such laws or may require us to apply for additional approvals. We may incur increased costs and other burdens relating to compliance with such new requirements, which may also require significant management time and other resources, and any failure to comply may adversely affect our business, results of operations and prospects. Uncertainty in the applicability, interpretation or implementation of any amendment to, or change in, governing law, regulation or policy, including

39

by reason of an absence, or a limited body, of administrative or judicial precedent may be time consuming as well as costly for us to resolve and may affect the viability of our current business or restrict our ability to grow our business in the future. Any increase in taxes and levies, or the imposition of new taxes and levies in the future, could increase the cost of production and operating expenses. Taxes and other levies imposed by the central or state governments in India that affect our industry include customs duties, excise duties, sales tax, income tax and other taxes, duties or surcharges introduced on a permanent or temporary basis from time to time. The central and state tax scheme in India is extensive and subject to change from time to time. Any adverse changes in any of the taxes levied by the central or state governments may adversely affect our competitive position and profitability.

20. Financial instability in both Indian and international markets could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

The Indian financial market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries, particularly in emerging market in Asian countries. Financial turmoil in Asia, Europe, the United States and elsewhere in the world in recent years has affected the Indian economy. Although economic conditions are different in each country, investors’ reactions to developments in one country can have an adverse effect on the securities of companies in other countries, including India. A loss in investor confidence in the financial systems of other emerging markets may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets and, indirectly, in the Indian economy in general. Any global financial instability, including further deterioration of credit conditions in the U.S. market, could also have a negative impact on the Indian economy. Financial disruptions may occur again and could harm our results of operations and financial condition.

The Indian economy is also influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries. This includes, but is not limited to, the conditions in the United States, Europe and certain economies in Asia. Financial turmoil in Asia and elsewhere in the world in recent years has affected the Indian economy. Any worldwide financial instability may cause increased volatility in the Indian financial markets and, directly or indirectly, adversely affect the Indian economy and financial sector and its business.

Although economic conditions vary across markets, loss of investor confidence in one emerging economy may cause increased volatility across other economies, including India. Financial instability in other parts of the world could have a global influence and thereby impact the Indian economy. Financial disruptions in the future could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. The global credit and equity markets have experienced substantial dislocations, liquidity disruptions and market corrections.

These could include further falls in Stock Exchange’s indices and greater volatility of markets in general due to the increased uncertainty. These and other related events could have a significant impact on the global credit and financial markets as a whole, and could result in reduced liquidity, greater volatility, widening of credit spreads and a lack of price transparency in the global credit and financial markets. There are also concerns that a tightening of monetary policy in emerging markets and some developed markets will lead to a moderation in global growth. In response to such developments, legislators and financial regulators in the United States and other jurisdictions, including India, have implemented a number of policy measures designed to add stability to the financial markets. However, the overall long-term impact of these and other legislative and regulatory efforts on the global financial markets is uncertain, and they may not have had the intended stabilizing effects. Any significant financial disruption in the future could have an adverse effect on our cost of funding, loan portfolio, business, future financial performance and the trading price of the Equity Shares.

21. Inflation in India could have an adverse effect on our profitability and if significant, on our financial condition.

Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years, and such volatility may continue in the future. India has experienced high inflation in the recent past. Increased inflation can contribute to an increase in interest rates and increased costs to our business, including increased costs of salaries, and other expenses relevant to our business.

High fluctuations in inflation rates may make it more difficult for us to accurately estimate or control our costs. Any increase in inflation in India can increase our expenses, which we may not be able to pass on to our customers, whether entirely or in part, and the same may adversely affect our business and financial condition. In particular, we might not be able to reduce our costs or increase our rates to pass the increase in costs on to our customers. In such case, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Further, the GoI has previously initiated economic measures to combat high inflation rates, and it is unclear whether these measures will remain in effect. There can be no assurance that Indian inflation levels will not worsen in the future.

40

22. 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.

As an Indian Company, we are subject to exchange controls that regulate borrowing in foreign currencies, including those specified under FEMA. Such regulatory restrictions limit our financing sources for our projects under development and hence could constrain our ability to obtain financing on competitive terms and refinance existing indebtedness. In addition, we cannot assure you that the required approvals will be granted to us without onerous conditions, or at all. Limitations on foreign debt may adversely affect our business growth, results of operations and financial condition.

Further, 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.

23. Any downgrading of India’s debt rating by an independent agency may harm our ability to raise financing.

Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings international debt by international rating agencies may adversely affect our ability to raise additional overseas financing and the interest rates and other commercial terms at which such additional financing is available. This could have an adverse effect on our ability to fund our growth on favourable terms or at all, and consequently adversely affect our business and financial performance and the price of our Equity Shares.

24. The occurrence of natural or man-made disasters could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Hostilities, terrorist attacks, civil unrest and other acts of violence could adversely affect the financial markets and our business.

The occurrence of natural disasters, including cyclones, storms, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, tornadoes, fires, explosions, pandemic disease and man-made disasters, including acts of terrorism and military actions, could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may adversely affect the Indian securities markets. In addition, any deterioration in international relations, especially between India and its neighbouring countries, may result in investor concern regarding regional stability which could adversely affect the price of the Equity Shares. In addition, India has witnessed local civil disturbances in recent years and it is possible that future civil unrest as well as other adverse social, economic or political events in India could have an adverse effect on our business.

Such incidents could also create a greater perception that investment in Indian companies involves a higher degree of risk and could have an adverse effect on our business and the market price of the Equity Shares.

25. Financial instability in other countries may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets.

The Indian market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries, particularly emerging market countries in Asia. Although economic conditions are different in each country, investors’ reactions to developments in one country can have adverse effects on the securities of companies in other countries, including India. A loss of investor confidence in the financial systems of other emerging markets may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets and, indirectly, in the Indian economy in general. Any worldwide financial instability could also have a negative impact on the Indian economy. Financial disruptions may occur again and could harm our business, our future financial performance and the prices of the Equity Shares.

The recent outbreak of Novel Coronavirus has significantly affected financial markets around the world. Any other global economic developments or the perception that any of them could occur may continue to have an adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, and may significantly reduce global market liquidity and restrict the ability of key market participants to operate in certain financial markets. Any of these factors could depress economic activity and restrict our access to capital, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and reduce the price of our Equity Shares. Any financial disruption could have an adverse effect on our business, future financial performance, shareholders’ equity and the price of our Equity Shares.

SECTION IV – ABOUT THE COMPANY

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

INTRODUCTION

As of January 2022, India’s gold and diamond trade contributed ~7% to India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The gems and jewellery sector has employs ~5 million. Based on its potential for growth and value addition, the Government declared the gems and jewellery sector as a focus area for export promotion.

The Government has undertaken various measures recently to promote investment and upgrade technology and skills to promote ‘Brand India’ in the international market. The Government has permitted 100% FDI in the sector under the automatic route, wherein the foreign investor or the Indian company do not require any prior approval from the Reserve Bank or the Government of India. The Indian Government also signed a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in March 2022, this will allow the Indian Gems and Jewellery industry to further boost exports. CEPA will provide the industry with duty-free access to the UAE market. India’s Gems Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) aims to triple its exports to the UAE post the CEPA.

OVERVIEW OF THE INDIAN ECONOMY

Strong economic growth in the first quarter of FY23 helped India overcome the UK to become the fifth-largest economy after it recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic shock. Nominal GDP or GDP at Current Prices in the year 2023-24 is estimated at Rs. 293.90 lakh crores (US$ 3.52 trillion), against the First Revised Estimates (FRE) of GDP for the year 2022-23 of Rs. 269.50 lakh crores (US$ 3.23 trillion). The growth in nominal GDP during 2023-24 is estimated at 9.1% as compared to 14.2% in 2022-23. Strong domestic demand for consumption and investment, along with Government’s continued emphasis on capital expenditure are seen as among the key driver of the GDP in the first half of FY24. During the period January-March 2024, India’s exports stood at US$ 119.10 billion, with Engineering Goods (25.01%), Petroleum Products (17.88%) and Organic and Inorganic Chemicals (7.65%) being the top three exported commodity. Rising employment and 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. The contact-based services sector has demonstrated promise to boost growth by unleashing the pent-up demand. 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. India's appeal as a destination for investments has grown stronger and more sustainable because of the current period of global unpredictability and volatility, and the record amounts of money raised by India-focused funds in 2022 are evidence of investor faith in the "Invest in India" narrative. Real GDP or GDP at Constant (2011-12) Prices in the year 2023-24 is estimated at Rs. 172.90 lakh crores (US$ 2.07 trillion), against the First Revised Estimates (FRE) of GDP for the year 2022-23 of Rs. 160.71 lakh crores (US$ 1.92 trillion). The growth in real GDP during 2023-24 is estimated at 7.6% as compared to 7.0% in 2022- 23. There are 113 unicorn startups in India, with a combined valuation of over US$ 350 billion. As many as 14 tech startups are expected to list in 2024 Fintech sector poised to generate the largest number of future unicorns in India. With India presently has the third-largest unicorn base in the world. The government is also focusing on renewable sources by achieving 40% of its energy from non-fossil sources by 2030. India is committed to achieving the country's ambition of Net Zero Emissions by 2070 through a five-pronged strategy, ‘Panchamrit’. Moreover, India ranked 3rd in the renewable energy country attractive index. According to the McKinsey Global Institute, India needs to boost its rate of employment growth and create 90 million non-farm jobs between 2023 to 2030 in order to increase productivity and economic growth. The net employment rate needs to grow by 1.5% per annum from 2023 to 2030 to achieve 8-8.5% GDP growth between same time period. India’s current account deficit (CAD) narrowed to 1.2% of GDP in the October-December quarter. The CAD stood at US$ 10.5 billion for the third quarter of 2023-24 compared to US$ 11.4 billion or 1.3% of GDP in the preceding quarter. This was largely due to higher service exports. Exports fared remarkably well during the pandemic and aided recovery when all other growth engines were losing steam in terms of their contribution to GDP. Going forward, the contribution of merchandise exports may waver as several of India’s trade partners witness an economic slowdown. According to Minister of Commerce and Industry, Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and Textiles Mr. Piyush Goyal, Indian exports are expected to reach US$ 1 trillion by 2030.

MARKET SIZE

India’s gems and jewellery market size was at US$ 78.50 billion in FY21. Growth in exports is mainly due to revived import demand

ROAD AHEAD

In the coming years, growth in the gems and jewellery sector would largely be contributed by the development of large retailers/brands. Established brands are guiding the organised market and are opening opportunities to grow. Increasing penetration of organised players provides variety in terms of products and designs. Also, the relaxation of restrictions on gold import is likely to provide a fillip to the industry.

The improvement in availability along with the reintroduction of low-cost gold metal loans and likely stabilisation of gold prices at lower levels is also expected to drive volume growth for jewellers over the short to medium term. India has 450 organised jewellery manufacturers, importers & exporters and is the hub for jewellery manufacturing. These players have benefited greatly due to the increasing liberal policies by the government. The demand for jewellery is expected to be significantly supported by the recent positive developments in the industry. India’s gems and jewellery industry is expected to reach US$ 100 billion by 2027.

Currently, we deal in cut and polished diamonds, offering a wide variety to suit preferences of the end customer. We cater to our customers’ unique preferences, through our understanding of the local and regional market.

Due to the pressures of the lockdown of over two years due to COVID, the factory remain closed for over two years. The management decided to sell the factory to limit losses. Currently, we do not have our own manufacturing facility and we outsource the work of making jewellery and ornaments as and when there is a requirement through various artisans with whom we have developed relationships over the past three decades. Due to our diversity of clients and the varied regions each of our clients cater to, we have developed an ability to design our jewellery products as per latest trends, fashion and demographic preference of the end customers. We offer a wide range of products from diamond jewellery for special occasions such as weddings and festivals to daily wear jewellery for all ages, genders and across various price points. We cater to a variety of customers across mid-market and value market segments and our products are designed by our in-house team of creative designers and also certain freelance designers, allowing us to manage a large and diverse portfolio of designs.

We primarily buy and sell cut and polished diamonds of various carats, facets, colours as per requirements of the customers. We also offer a wide variety of diamond jewellery and our product range includes machine made, handmade & plain diamond jewellery like necklace, chains, rings, pendants, bracelets, bangles, and other wedding jewelleries. The designing and job work of our products is done either in house or by third parties on job work basis. Our primary focus has been on quality and low cost to customers.

In order to get voting rights and management control, our Promoters Mudit Sharadkumar Jain and Bluerock Industrial Infrastructure Management LLP, and Bluerock Infrastructure Solutions LLP acquired 13,46,067 Equity Shares from the erstwhile promoters. Our Company made no significant change to its existing line of business as a result of this acquisition. Our Promoter Mudit Sharadkumar Jain have around 30 years of experience in Jewellery industry and with his business notions, knowledge and management skills, we have served our customers.

Our Company is engaged in the business of trading of cut and polished diamonds, wherein we offer a wide variety of products to suit preferences of the end customer. We cater to our customers’ unique preferences, through our understanding of the local and regional market. Owing to the volatility of the diamond industry, we intend to diversify our operations by venturing into the automotive industry, by acquiring VEM Tooling India Private Limited (the “ Target Entity ”). The Target Entity are engaged in the business of manufacturing automotive components for renowned automobile manufacturers, and have an in-house manufacturing capabilities. In order to tap the growing market of the automobile industry and to benefit from the increasing demand of electric vehicles, we intend to diversify our business operations by acquiring the Target Entities. We believe that the acquisition would bring stability to the business operations of our Company, and increase our revenue and profitability.

By integrating the operations, expertise, and resources of these companies, we aim to achieve multiple objectives. First, diversification allows us to mitigate risk by reducing reliance on a single industry or product line. Second, it provides an opportunity to enhance

revenue streams by tapping into new customer segments and leveraging cross-industry synergies. Lastly, this expansion positions us to seize emerging opportunities, fostering innovation and ensuring our adaptability in an ever-evolving business environment. These acquisitions represent a critical step in our long-term growth strategy, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable development and strengthening our competitive advantage in both existing and newly entered markets.

As we know that the Natural Diamond Industry is facing stiff competition from the Lab Grown Diamonds and to top that there is recessionary scenario in both USE and Europe the biggest Diamond markets, the Company has decided to venture into the Automotive Component Business. We are acquiring two companies in the Automotive Component Business which will augment our turnover and profitability and bring in some sort of stability to turnover and profit and also offer opportunity for growth. For making these acquisitions the Company needs to raise financial resources to seize the opportunity of acquiring these two running profit making companies and also to take advantage of the golden period of the Automotive Component Industry which experts say shall continue for at least another seven to eight years if not longer.

RESERVATIONS, QUALIFICATIONS AND ADVERSE REMARKS

The Statutory Auditors of our Company have confirmed that there are no Qualifications for the Nine-months period ended December 31, 2024.

The Statutory Auditors of our Company have included the following material qualified opinion and emphasis of matters in the audit report issued for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2024:

Basis of Qualified Opinion

“In respect of Inventories during the year under audit, the management has not undertaken any physical verification of the inventories at the year end. We were unable to conduct the annual physical verification at the year-end due to non-availability of the responsible person. The management has expressed its helplessness to provide us with complete inventory records & reports. However, we have been communicated by the Management that they will engage an Independent Certified Valuer or/and Chartered Accountancy firm for the Physical Verification and Valuation of Inventory as per Ind AS-2 and but it’s still not yet done. Hence, we are unable to comment on the realizable value of the same. The impact of above remarks, presently are not ascertainable and therefore cannot be commented upon.

Emphasis of Matters:

  1. During the previous year, the trade payables of the company included a vendor with an outstanding balance of more than 3 years of ₹ 49.33 lakhs as of March 31, 2023. The vendor was under the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process from January 2018. The management of the company was making all efforts to quantify the amount payable to the vendor. Based on the information provided by the management, the matter was pending before various statutory investigating authorities. However, the company has not received any claims. Hence, in the opinion of management, it is written back in the books to account for the absence of the vendor’s confirmation. (Also refer to Note 37 of the Financial Statement)

  2. During the year, the company has made additional provision for the Doubtful Debts of Trade Receivable amount of 276.65 lakhs in the books of account, for which no proper reason or confirmation was provided. There was also no direct balance confirmation given by the third party. The management is of the view that it will be able to effectively monitor the deficit in the future and recover the dues from debtors; however, we are unable to comment on the ultimate realisability of company assets and the balances of trade receivable at the end of the year. (also refer to Note 7 of the financial statement).

The Statutory Auditors of our Company have included the following qualified opinion in the audit report issued for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2023:

“We draw attention to Note 37 to the financial statements, wherein the Company has not received confirmation from one of the vendors having outstanding balance of Rs. 49,32,661/- for more than 3 years. Due to nonavailability of confirmation of balance, we are unable to quantify the impact, if any, arising from the same.

The Statutory Auditors of our Company have included the following qualified opinion in the audit report issued for the Financial Year ended March 31, 2022:

We draw attention to Note 39 to the financial statements, wherein the Company has not received confirmation from one of the vendors having outstanding balance of Rs. 49,32,661/- for more than 3 years. Due to non-availability of confirmation of balance, we are unable to quantify the impact, if any, arising from the same.

There can be no assurance that any similar remarks, or matters of emphasis will not form part of our audit reports for the future fiscal periods, which could subject us to additional liabilities due to which our reputation and financial condition may be adversely affected.

INVESTORS MAY PLEASE NOTE THAT THE RIGHTS EQUITY SHARES CAN BE TRADED ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE ONLY IN DEMATERIALIZED FORM.

The procedure for availing the facility for Allotment of Rights Equity Shares in the Issue in the dematerialised form is as under:

Open a beneficiary account with any depository participant (care should be taken that the beneficiary account should carry the name of the holder in the same manner as is registered in the records of our Company. In the case of joint holding, the beneficiary account should be opened carrying the names of the holders in the same order as registered in the records of our Company). In case of Investors having various folios in our Company with different joint holders, the Investors will have to open separate accounts for such holdings. Those Investors who have already opened such beneficiary account(s) need not adhere to this step.

It should be ensured that the depository account is in the name(s) of the Investors and the names are in the same order as in the records of our Company or the Depositories.

The responsibility for correctness of information filled in the Application Form vis-a-vis such information with the Investor’s depository participant, would rest with the Investor. Investors should ensure that the names of the Investors and the order in which they appear in Application Form should be the same as registered with the Investor’s depository participant.

If incomplete or incorrect beneficiary account details are given in the Application Form, the Investor will not get any Rights Equity Shares and the Application Form will be rejected.

The Rights Equity Shares will be allotted to Applicants only in dematerialized form and would be directly credited to the beneficiary account as given in the Application Form after verification or demat suspense account (pending receipt of demat account details for resident Eligible Equity Shareholders holding Equity Shares in physical form/ with Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF) authority/ in suspense, etc.). Allotment advice, refund order (if any) would be sent through physical dispatch, by the Registrar but the Applicant’s depository participant will provide to him the confirmation of the credit of such Rights Equity Shares to the Applicant’s depository account.

175

Non-transferable Allotment advice/ refund intimation will be directly sent to the Investors by the Registrar, through physical dispatch.

Renouncees will also have to provide the necessary details about their beneficiary account for Allotment of Rights Equity Shares in the Issue. In case these details are incomplete or incorrect, the Application is liable to be rejected.

Dividend or other benefits with respect to the Equity Shares held in dematerialized form would be paid to those Equity Shareholders whose names appear in the list of beneficial owners given by the Depository Participant to our Company as on the date of the book closure.

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 FEMA. While the Industrial Policy, 1991, of the Government of India, 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. The Union Cabinet, as provided in the Cabinet Press Release dated May 24, 2017, has given its approval for phasing out the FIPB. Under the Industrial Policy, 1991, unless specifically restricted, foreign investment is freely permitted in all sectors of the 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. Accordingly, the process for foreign direct investment (“FDI”) and approval from the Government of India will now be handled by the concerned ministries or departments, in consultation with the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India (formerly known as the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion) (“DPIIT”), Ministry of Finance, Department of Economic Affairs, FIPB section, through a memorandum dated June 5, 2017, has notified the specific ministries handling relevant sectors.

The Government has, from time to time, made policy pronouncements on FDI through press notes and press releases. The DPIIT issued the Consolidated FDI Policy Circular of 2017 (“FDI Circular 2017”), which, with effect from August 28, 2017, consolidated and superseded all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DPIIT that were in force and effect as on August 28, 2017. The Government proposes to update the consolidated circular on FDI policy once every year and therefore, FDI Circular 2017 will be valid until the DPIIT issues an updated circular.

The Government of India has from time to time made policy pronouncements on FDI through press notes and press releases which are notified by RBI as amendments to FEMA. In case of any conflict between FEMA and such policy pronouncements, FEMA prevails. The Consolidated FDI Policy, issued by the DIPP, consolidates the policy framework in place as on August 27, 2017, and supersedes all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DIPP that were in force and effect as on August 27, 2017. The Government proposes to update the consolidated circular on FDI Policy once every year and therefore the Consolidated FDI Policy will be valid until the DIPP issues an updated circular.

The transfer of shares between an Indian resident and a non-resident does not require the prior approval of the RBI, provided

179

that (i) the activities of the investee company falls under the automatic route as provided in the FDI Policy and FEMA and transfer does not attract the provisions of the SEBI 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 SEBI and RBI.

As per the existing policy of the Government of India, erstwhile OCBs cannot participate in this Issue.
