We compute and disclose such Non-GAAP Measures and such other statistical information relating to our operations and financial performance as we consider such information to be useful measures of our business and financial performance.
These Non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental measures of our performance and liquidity that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, Ind AS, Indian GAAP, IFRS or US GAAP.

For details, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on page 408.
For risk relating to our non-GAAP measures, see “Risk Factors – This Prospectus includes certain Non-GAAP Measures, financial and operational performance indicators and other industry measures related to our operations and financial performance.

Our dependence on a limited number of customers exposes us to the risk that any adverse change in the business, financial condition, procurement strategies, inventory planning, credit policies or operational requirements of such customers could have a disproportionate and material impact on our business and financial performance. We are dependent on such customers for repeat orders and expect to continue to rely on them for a substantial portion of our revenue for the foreseeable future.
Our sales are largely order-driven, and we do not typically enter into long-term supply contracts with our customers. Orders are placed based on customer-specific requirements, inventory cycles, store expansion plans and prevailing consumer demand. In the absence of binding long-term contractual arrangements, there can be no assurance that our existing customers will continue to place orders with us at historical levels, on similar commercial terms, or at all.
Further, our business model is closely aligned with the procurement cycles, merchandising strategies and sourcing preferences of retail chains. Any changes in such strategies, including increased in-house manufacturing, rationalisation of vendor bases, changes in product mix, pricing pressures or slowdown in store expansion, may directly impact our order volumes, margins and growth prospects.
In addition, demand from our customers is influenced by broader factors such as consumer preferences, discretionary spending patterns, gold price movements, competition and macroeconomic conditions.
Any adverse developments affecting our key customers, including changes in their financial condition, liquidity position, procurement strategies, management decisions or operational requirements, could result in reduction, delay or cancellation of orders.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material loss of key customers. However, past order volumes and continuity of business may not be indicative of future performance, and there can be no assurance that such customers will continue to place orders with us on similar terms or at similar levels in the future.
Accordingly, any inability on our part to retain key customers, diversify our customer base and, scale our D2C operations. Any inabilities to achive these objectives, or offset any reduction in business from existing customers through new or expanded relationships could result in volatility in our revenues and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.
2. A substantial portion of our revenue from operations is derived from a limited number of states in India, particularly Gujarat, Karnataka, Telangana, Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra, which together contributed ₹1725.20 million, ₹897.85 million and ₹506.63 million, aggregating to 85.03%, 92.71%, and 94.44% of our revenue from operations during the Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. Any adverse developments in these regions could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.
During the Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, our revenue from operations has been predominantly derived from domestic markets contributing 97.44%, 99.93% and 99.15% of our total revenue from operations, respectively. Within domestic markets, our revenues are geographically diversified across 18 states and 2 union territories; however, a significant portion is concentrated in a limited number of states, particularly Gujarat, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Telangana and Tamil Nadu.
Set out below are the geographical distribution of revenue from operations based on Restated Consolidated Financial Information (₹ in million, unless stated otherwise) 29Particulars Fiscal 2026 % of total Fiscal % of Fiscal % of revenue 2025 total 2024 total revenue revenue Gujarat 758.83 37.40 522.35 53.94 397.53 74.09 Karnataka 475.26 23.42 47.35 4.89 11.19 2.09 Maharashtra 239.94 11.83 48.94 5.05 25.85 4.81 Telangana 174.72 8.61 103.27 10.66 10.28 1.92 Tamil Nadu 76.45 3.77 175.94 18.17 61.78 11.51 Subtotal 1725.20 85.03 897.85 92.71 506.63 94.42 (above detailed 5 states Key States) Others* 303.74 14.97 70.60 7.29 29.92 5.58 Total 2,028.94 100.00 968.45 100.00 536.55 100.00 *Others states include Chhattisgarh, Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, Kerala, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Delhi, Jharkhand, Odisha, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Chandigarh, Haryana and overseas markets including United Arab Emirates, Canada, Taiwan, Kenya and Australia.
As certified by the Statutory Auditors vide their certificate dated September 23, 2026.
Our geographic concentration is primarily attributable to our B2B business model, under which we design, manufacture and supply lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to retail chains, wholesalers and distributors operating in these regions. Accordingly, our business is closely linked to regional demand patterns, consumer preferences, retail expansion strategies and economic conditions prevailing in these markets.
This concentration subject us to region-specific risks, including adverse economic conditions, changes in consumer demand, fluctuations in discretionary spending, increased competition, regulatory or taxation changes, disruptions in logistics or supply chains, labour availability constraints and other localised factors. Any adverse developments affecting one or more of these key states could have a disproportionate impact on our revenues and profitability.
Further, our revenues from overseas markets remain limited, contributing 2.56%, 0.07% and 0.85% of our revenue from operations during the Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. As a result, our ability to mitigate risks arising from geographic concentration through diversification into international markets is currently constrained. While we have recently commenced D2C operations through our subsidiary, Ayaani, and such operations are at a nascent stage and may not be sufficient in the near term to offset risks arising from concentration in our key geographic markets.
Any adverse developments affecting one or more of our key revenue-generating states, whether due to region-specific economic slowdowns, changes in consumer preferences, increased competition, regulatory actions, supply chain disruptions, labour availability issues or other localized factors, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and prospects.
While we have not faced any material disruptions to our operations arising due to geographic concentration during the last three Fiscals, our past geographic performance may not be indicative of future results, and there can be no assurance that revenues from our key states will continue at historical levels.
Accordingly, any inability on our part to sustain revenues from our key geographic markets, diversify our geographic footprint, or offset any decline in revenues from such regions through expansion into new domestic or overseas markets could result in volatility in our revenues and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.
3. Our business is working capital intensive, and our working capital requirements have increased from ₹67.65 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹449.46 million as of fiscal 2026. We intend to utilise a portion of the Net Proceeds towards funding our working capital requirements. Any inability to fund or 30efficiently manage our working capital could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We are engaged in the design, manufacturing and sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery under a predominantly B2B model, catering to retail chain, standalone retailers and wholesalers. Our business operations are driven by transaction volumes, scale of operations and execution efficiency, and inherently require significant working capital to support procurement of gold and lab-grown diamonds, maintenance of inventory across various stages of production and extension of credit to customers in the ordinary course of business.
Given the nature of our operations, we are required to make upfront payments for procurement of gold and lab-grown diamonds, which constitute our primary raw materials, while finished jewellery is supplied to customers against purchase orders with payments typically realized over agreed credit periods. This results in a mismatch between cash outflows and inflows, thereby increasing our working capital requirements.
The details of our working capital requirements during the last three Fiscals on standalone basis are set
out below: (₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Inventories 410.54 254.62 51.35 Trade Receivables 160.64 87.52 40.64 Other Current Assets 9.98 5.37 1.92 Total Current Assets (A) 581.16 347.51 93.91 Trade Payables 81.65 27.62 16.71 Lease Liabilities 2.40 0.89 0.81 Other Current Liabilities 47.64 67.88 8.74 Total Current Liabilities (B) 131.70 96.39 26.26 Working Capital 449.46 251.12 67.65 Requirement (A-B) As certified by the Statutory Auditors vide their certificate dated September 24, 2026.
Our working capital requirements have increased significantly in line with the scale of our operations and growth in our revenue from operations, particularly driven by higher deployment towards inventories and trade receivables. Inventories and trade receivables together constitute a substantial portion of our total working capital requirement during the reported periods.
Our business requires us to maintain inventory across multiple stages, including raw materials, work- in-process and finished goods. Given the design-led nature of our jewellery and the need to maintain a wide product portfolio, we are required to maintain adequate inventory levels to support order fulfilment and customer engagement.
Further, our working capital requirements are significantly influenced by trade receivables. Extending credit to customers is an integral part of our B2B business model and is critical to maintaining competitiveness and long-term relationships. As a result, a substantial portion of our working capital remains deployed in receivables, which are realized over agreed credit periods.
Our operating cycle has also evolved with the scale of our operations. Our inventory holding period increased to 59 days and receivable days increased to 22 days during the Fiscal 2026, reflecting higher capital deployment in the business. Any further elongation of operating cycle parameters may increase our working capital requirements.
We have historically funded our working capital requirements through a combination of internal accruals and borrowings. As part of our growth strategy, we propose to utilize a portion of the Net Proceeds towards funding our working capital requirements. For details, see “Objects of the Issue – Funding of working capital requirements of the Company” on page 140. However, there can be no 31assurance that such funds will be sufficient to meet our future working capital needs or that we will not require additional financing.
Further, our estimated working capital requirement is projected to increase to ₹1,103.08 million in Fiscal 2027, indicating continued and substantial capital deployment in the business.
Any inability to accurately estimate working capital requirements, delays in utilization of Net Proceeds, adverse fluctuations in raw material prices, elongation of receivable cycles, higher-than-anticipated inventory levels or constraints in accessing additional financing could adversely affect our liquidity, disrupt operations, impact our ability to fulfil customer orders and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact due to inability to manage working capital. However, past trends may not be indicative of future performance.
Accordingly, our business is exposed to risks arising from its working capital-intensive nature, and any failure to adequately fund or efficiently manage our working capital requirements could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
4. Our purchases are significantly concentrated among a limited number of suppliers, with our top 10 suppliers contributing 86.16%, 94.31% and 87.05% of our total purchases during the Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. Any disruption in supply or adverse changes in terms from such suppliers could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our business involves the design, manufacturing and sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery and is dependent on the procurement of key raw materials, including gold bullion and lab-grown diamonds, from a limited number of domestic suppliers. Our purchases are significantly concentrated among a small group of domestic suppliers, which exposes us to risks arising from supplier dependency.
The table below sets forth details of our domestic supplier-concentration (based on value of purchases),
based on Restated Consolidated Financial Information for the indicated period:

A substantial portion of our purchases is concentrated with a limited number of suppliers, with our top supplier alone contributing 55.11%, 49.45% and 40.25% of our total purchases during Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. This level of concentration indicates a significant reliance on a few key suppliers for procurement of critical raw materials.

Our dependence on a limited number of suppliers exposes us to several risks, including: • disruption in supply due to operational, financial or regulatory issues affecting such suppliers; • adverse changes in commercial terms, including pricing, credit terms or delivery timelines;
• inability to procure sufficient quantities of raw materials on commercially viable terms; and • increased bargaining power of key suppliers, which may adversely impact our margins.
Further, we do not typically enter into long-term procurement contracts with a majority of our suppliers, and our procurement is largely based on prevailing market conditions and order requirements. In the absence of long-term contractual arrangements, there can be no assurance that our existing suppliers will continue to supply raw materials at historical volumes, pricing or terms.
Any disruption in the supply of gold bullion or lab-grown diamonds from such key suppliers, whether due to regulatory restrictions, import policies, supply chain disruptions, logistical challenges or supplier-specific issues, could adversely impact our production schedules, increase procurement costs and affect our ability to fulfil customer orders in a timely manner.
Additionally, our business is inherently linked to the availability and pricing of gold and lab-grown diamonds. Any concentration of procurement among a limited number of suppliers further amplifies the impact of price volatility and supply constraints in respect of such raw materials.
While we may identify and onboard alternative suppliers, there can be no assurance that such suppliers will be able to provide materials of comparable quality, quantity or pricing on a timely basis. Any delay or inability to diversify our supplier base may adversely affect our operations.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material disruption in supply from our key suppliers. However, past continuity of supply may not be indicative of future performance.
Accordingly, any inability to maintain relationships with our key suppliers, diversify our supplier base, or procure raw materials on commercially viable terms could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
345. Our manufacturing operations are concentrated at a single facility in Surat, Gujarat, and any disruption in operations, failure of machinery, inability to maintain quality standards or underutilisation of capacity could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our manufacturing operations are carried out at our facility located at Ratih House, Surat, Gujarat, admeasuring approximately 7,000 sq. ft. Our operations are therefore geographically concentrated at a single location, which exposes us to region-specific risks. Any adverse developments in this region, including economic slowdowns, labour unrest, infrastructure constraints, power shortages, regulatory actions, environmental factors, natural calamities such as floods or earthquakes, public health emergencies, or disruptions affecting the broader jewellery ecosystem (including availability of skilled labour, suppliers, logistics networks or ancillary services), may adversely impact our ability to procure raw materials, maintain production schedules and fulfil customer orders.
Our manufacturing facility is equipped with machinery and equipment across key processes, including waxing, casting, filling, setting and polishing, enabling end-to-end production of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery. Our operations are subject to risks of unplanned slowdowns, unscheduled shutdowns or disruptions due to factors such as machinery breakdown, obsolescence of equipment, fire, accidents, labour disruptions or other unforeseen events. Any such disruption may delay production, increase costs and adversely affect our business. Further, any malfunction or breakdown of machinery may require significant repair and maintenance expenditure and result in operational inefficiencies.
Set out below are the details of our production capacity for manufacturing lab-grown diamond studded
gold jewellery manufactured during the indicated period:
Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Installed Capacity (Kg p.a.) 360.00 360.00 360.00 Actual Production (Kg) 162.77 115.20 72.49 Capacity Utilisation (%) 45.21 32.00 20.14 As certified by Dr. P. J. Gandhi, Independent Chartered Engineer vide certificate dated September 12, 2026.
1. Installed capacity represents the maximum production capacity of the manufacturing facility based on installed machinery and standard operating conditions followed in the jewellery manufacturing industry.
2. The installed capacity has been assessed assuming 25 working days per month, 12 months in a year and one shift per day of approximately 10 hours per shift.
3. Actual production represents the total quantity of lab grown diamond studded gold jewellery manufactured during the relevant fiscal year/period.
4. Capacity utilisation has been calculated based on the ratio of actual production to installed capacity for the relevant fiscal year/period.
5. The installed capacity has been assessed considering the complete manufacturing cycle including designing, casting, filing, polishing, diamond setting, finishing and quality inspection processes.
6. The capacity estimation is based on the rated capacity of key machinery such as casting machines, polishing units, diamond setting benches and finishing equipment installed at the manufacturing facility.
7. The above capacity assessment has been carried out based on physical inspection of the manufacturing facility, verification of installed machinery and discussions with the management of the Company.
8. The installed capacity mentioned above is in line with the production capacity permitted under the consent issued by the Gujarat Pollution Control Board to us for manufacturing of Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery.
Our installed capacity was increased in 2024 to support the anticipated growth and scalability of our manufacturing operations. However, our production is primarily undertaken based on customer demand and order volumes and has increased progressively in line with such demand. Accordingly, our capacity utilisation remained relatively lower during the periods presented and may continue to vary depending on factors such as customer demand, order volumes, procurement practices of customers, market conditions and our ability to accurately forecast demand and schedule production.
Any underutilisation of our manufacturing capacity may adversely affect our ability to absorb fixed costs, resulting in lower operating margins and reduced profitability. Conversely, in periods of higher demand, we may be required to optimise operations or extend working hours, which may impact operational efficiency and quality. Further, any mismatch between production and demand may lead to inefficiencies, including overproduction, increased inventory levels or idle capacity. While we may seek to reallocate production to other customers, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in a timely manner or at all.
35Given the absence of alternative manufacturing facilities, any disruption in operations or inability to effectively utilise our production capacity may have a disproportionate and material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material disruption in our manufacturing operations or significant quality-related issues. However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes. Accordingly, any disruption in our manufacturing operations or inability to effectively utilise our production capacity could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
6. We are subject to stringent quality requirements, and any failure to maintain quality standards, including instances of product returns by customers, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our business involves the design and manufacture of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, which is subject to stringent quality standards across multiple parameters, including design specifications, metal purity, gemstone quality, finishing and durability. Our ability to maintain such standards is critical to customer satisfaction, repeat business and brand reputation.
We have implemented a structured, multi-stage quality control framework across our operations, including checks at the stage of raw material procurement, design validation, in-process manufacturing and final inspection prior to dispatch. These checks include verification of material specifications, assessment of design feasibility, inspection of aesthetic and functional parameters, and validation of finished products for quality and durability. However, there can be no assurance that such processes will be sufficient to prevent defects, inconsistencies or deviations from customer requirements.
Any failure on our part to maintain applicable quality standards or to manufacture products in accordance with customer specifications may result in rejection of products, return of goods, cancellation of orders, loss of customers and reputational damage. In addition, we may be required to incur additional costs towards rework, replacement, recycling or logistics, which may not be recoverable from customers.
Further, defects or inconsistencies in products, whether arising from manufacturing processes, design execution or quality control lapses, may expose us to potential claims, disputes or litigation and may adversely affect our relationships with customers.
While our products are subject to internal quality checks and controls, there have been certain instances in the past where products have been returned by customers, primarily on account of mismatch with customer preferences or specifications. Although such instances have not had a material impact on our results of operations during the periods presented, there can be no assurance that similar or higher levels of returns will not occur in the future.
The details of product returns and their percentage of gross sales on standalone basis for the periods
indicated are set out below: (₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Fiscal As % of Fiscal As % of Fiscal As % of 2026 gross sales 2025 gross sales 2024 gross sales Value of goods returned – Related 63.17 3.05 62.39 6.41 1.97 0.37 Parties (RPT) Value of goods returned – Non- 183.52 8.86 109.37 11.23 30.51 5.69 Related Parties (Non-RPT) Total value of goods returned 246.69 11.91 171.76 17.64 32.48 6.05
Note: All related party transactions entered into by the Company during the relevant period were undertaken in the ordinary course of business and on an arm's length basis.
As certified by the Statutory Auditors vide their certificate dated September 23, 2026.
The increase in product returns as a percentage of gross sales during Fiscal 2026 as compared to Fiscal 2024 was primarily attributable to the increase in scale of our operations, higher dealer participation 36and inventory rotation/replacement undertaken in the ordinary course of business.
The product returns during Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024 pertained to our B2B sales made to dealers, distributors and channel partners and did not relate to our D2C sales. Out of the total product returns, returns aggregating to ₹63.17 million, ₹62.39 million and ₹1.97 million during Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, respectively, pertained to transactions with related parties. Revenue from related party as well as non-related party transactions has been recognised net of sales returns in our financial statements.
Any increase in product returns, whether due to quality issues, design mismatches or evolving customer preferences, may result in higher operational costs, loss of revenue and pressure on margins. In addition, frequent returns may adversely affect customer confidence and our ability to secure repeat orders.
Further, our D2C operations under Ayaani may expose us to higher return rates due to direct consumer interactions, evolving preferences and expectations relating to design, quality and pricing. During the last three Fiscals, instances of product returns have not had a material adverse impact on our business.
However, past trends may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability to maintain required quality standards, ensure consistency across our production processes or effectively manage product returns could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
7. We have experienced negative cash flows from operating and investing activities in previous periods and cannot assure that we will not experience negative cash flows in future periods. Negative cash flows may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We have experienced negative cash flows from operating activities despite reporting profits, primarily due to significant deployment of working capital in our business. The details of our cash flows for the
periods indicated below are as follows: (₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Fiscal 2026 2025 2024 Net cash flow generated from/ (utilized in) operating activities (147.32) (100.52) (10.51)
(A) Net cash flow generated from/ (utilized in) investing activities (19.93) (4.19) (8.25)
(B) Net cash flow generated from/ (utilized in) financing activities 168.58 107.15 17.26
(C) Net (decrease)/ increase in cash & cash equivalents (A+B+C) 1.33 2.44 (1.50) Cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of the year 2.97 0.53 2.03 Adj.: Addition on acquisition of subsidiary 1.13 - - Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the year 5.42 2.97 0.53 Our negative cash flows from operating activities are primarily attributable to significant working capital deployment, including increases in inventories and trade receivables in line with the growth of our business.
Our business is inherently working capital intensive, requiring upfront procurement of gold bullion and lab-grown diamonds, while revenue is realized over credit periods extended to customers. This results in a structural mismatch between cash inflows and outflows, which may continue to impact our operating cash flows.
We have also incurred negative cash flows from investing activities during the periods indicated above, primarily on account of capital expenditure towards property, plant and equipment and development of our manufacturing capabilities.
Our liquidity has historically been supported by positive cash flows from financing activities, including 37proceeds from issuance of share capital and borrowings. Any reduction in availability of such financing, or inability to raise funds on acceptable terms, may adversely impact our liquidity position.
Negative cash flows, particularly from operating activities, may limit our ability to fund working capital requirements, meet our financial obligations, invest in growth initiatives and respond to changing market conditions. It may also increase our dependence on external financing, including borrowings, which may not be available on favourable terms or at all.
Any sustained negative cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
8. Our Company has in the Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024, entered into certain related party transactions with related parties, in the ordinary course of our business. The absolute sum of all related party transactions as a percentage of revenue from operations for the respective periods was 33.37%,
38.88%, 17.59%, respectively and cannot assure you that such transactions will not adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
In the ordinary course of business, we have entered into transactions with certain related parties including our Promoters and Group Companies, in the last three Fiscals and may continue to do so in future.
The absolute sum of all related party transactions as a percentage of revenue from operations for the respective periods was 33.37%, 38.88%, 17.59%, respectively. The increase in related party transactions during Fiscal 2024 to Fiscal 2026 was primarily attributable to the scale-up of the Company’s business operations, increased operational requirements and higher transaction volumes undertaken in the ordinary course of business with related parties For details of our related party transactions see “Note 39 to our Restated Consolidated Financial Information included in “Restated Consolidated Financial Information” on pages 360.
The table below sets forth details of absolute sum of all related party transactions and the percentage of such related-party transactions to our revenue from operations in the periods indicated below:
(₹ in million, except percentages) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Absolute sum of all related party transactions 676.97 376.58 94.37 Revenue from operations 2028.94 968.45 536.55 Absolute sum of all related party transactions as a 33.37 38.88 17.59 percentage of revenue from operations (%)
Note: The absolute sum of all related party transactions set out above has been derived from Note 39 to our Restated Consolidated Financial Information and represents the aggregate of all related party transactions entered into during the relevant period, including transactions between our Company and our Subsidiaries which are eliminated on consolidation.
Excluding such intra-group transactions, the absolute sum of all related party transactions was ₹188.97 million, ₹321.17 million and ₹93.86 million for Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively, representing 9.31%, 33.16% and 17.49% of our revenue from operations for the respective periods.
A summary of related party transactions as per the requirements under Ind AS 24 – Related Party Disclosures read with SEBI ICDR Regulations, entered into by our Company with related parties and as disclosed in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information for Fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 are as

Notes: In accordance with Ind AS 110, Consolidated Financial Statements, intra-group outstanding balances, between the Parent Company and its subsidiaries, have been fully eliminated in the preparation of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
They are presented here solely for the purpose of supplementary information and transparency.
Ratna LGD Private Limited was identified as a Material Subsidiary as of the date of the DRHP. However, based on the updated financial information of Fiscal 2026 and the applicable materiality criteria under SEBI ICDR Regulations, Ratna LGD Private Limited no longer qualifies as a Material Subsidiary of the Company.
For further details of the related party transactions and as reported in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, see "Note 39 - Restated Consolidated Financial Information" on page 360.
As certified by our Statutory Auditors, pursuant to their certificate dated September 23, 2026, all related party transactions of our Company as disclosed in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information are conducted on an arm’s length basis, in accordance with the Companies Act and in compliance with other applicable laws, including taking necessary approval/resolution from our Audit Committee, Board of Directors and our Shareholders, to the extent applicable.
The transactions we have entered into with our related parties and any future transactions with our related parties could potentially involve, conflicts of interest. All related party transactions that we may enter into after listing on the Stock Exchanges will be subject to approval by our Audit Committee, our Board, or our Shareholders, as required under the Companies Act and the SEBI Listing Regulations.
Related party transactions that our Company enters into in the future may involve conflicts of interest, which shall be in compliance with applicable law but may be detrimental to the interest of our Company and we cannot assure you that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will always be in the best interests of our minority Shareholders and will not adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
9. The P/E ratio of our Company at the higher and lower ends of the Price Band may be at a discount to the average P/E ratio of our listed industry peers, and the Issue Price may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity Shares after listing.
The average P/E ratio of our listed industry peer set is 20.16 times. Based on the Issue Price at the higher end of the Price Band, the P/E ratio of our Company would be 13.59 times, representing a discount of 32.59% to the average P/E ratio of our listed industry peers. Based on the Issue Price at the lower end of the Price Band, the P/E ratio of our Company would be 12.68 times, representing a discount of 37.10% to the average P/E ratio of our listed industry peers.
The P/E ratio of our Company has been computed on the basis of the applicable earnings per share of our Company and the relevant ends of the Price Band. For details relating to the P/E ratio of our Company and our listed industry peers, see “Basis for Issue Price” on page 150.
The Issue Price was determined by our Company, in consultation with the Book Running Lead Manager, through the Book Building Process. There can be no assurance that the valuation at which the Equity Shares are offered will be sustained after listing or that the market price of our Equity Shares will not decline below the Issue Price. Investors should therefore evaluate the Issue Price having regard 44to, among other things, our financial performance, business prospects, applicable valuation parameters and the risks described in this section.
10. At the time of filing the DRHP, our net tangible assets for Fiscal 2023 and our average operating profit for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 were below the thresholds prescribed under Regulations 6(1)(a) and 6(1)(b), respectively, of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Although, following the inclusion of Fiscal 2026, we currently satisfy these eligibility requirements and the Issue is now proposed to be undertaken pursuant to Regulation 6(1) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, our average operating profit marginally exceeds the prescribed threshold, and we cannot assure you that we will maintain or improve our operating profit or other financial parameters in the future.
At the time of filing of the Draft Red Herring Prospectus dated March 30, 2026 (“DRHP”), the Issue was proposed to be undertaken pursuant to Regulation 6(2) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations since, based on the Restated Consolidated Financial Information for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 included in the DRHP, our Company did not satisfy the eligibility requirements under Regulations 6(1)(a) and 6(1)(b) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. The DRHP accordingly disclosed that our Company did not fulfil such requirements and that the Issue was proposed to be undertaken pursuant to Regulation 6(2) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations.
Subsequent to the filing of the DRHP, the Restated Consolidated Financial Information has been updated to include Fiscal 2026. Consequently, the financial information relevant for determining our Company’s eligibility under Regulation 6(1) now comprises Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024. The position
at the DRHP stage and the updated position as of the date of this Prospectus are summarised below:

DRHP stage.
Accordingly, upon inclusion of the financial information for Fiscal 2026, our Company satisfies the eligibility requirements under Regulation 6(1) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, and the Issue is now proposed to be undertaken pursuant to Regulation 6(1), instead of Regulation 6(2), of the SEBI ICDR Regulations.
However, our average operating profit for Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024 is ₹151.39 million and exceeds the prescribed threshold of ₹150.00 million under Regulation 6(1)(b) by ₹1.39 million, or approximately 0.93%. Investors should not consider our satisfaction of the eligibility requirements under Regulation 6(1) as an indication that we will be able to maintain comparable levels of operating profit, net tangible assets, net worth or financial performance in future periods. Any inability to sustain our operating performance may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. Also see “Risk Factor - We have experienced significant growth in our revenue from operations, which increased from ₹536.55 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹968.45 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹2,028.94 million in Fiscal 2026, and in our EBITDA, which increased from ₹54.76 million to ₹129.01 million and ₹309.74 million, respectively, during the same periods. Further, our profit after tax increased from ₹40.24 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹97.88 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹223.15 million in Fiscal 2026. However, our business has scaled significantly over a relatively short period, and 47such historical growth may not be sustained or may not be indicative of our future performance. Any inability to sustain our growth, margins or profitability or to effectively manage the scaling of our operations could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows” on page 67.
As a consequence of the change in the regulatory route for the Issue, the allocation structure of the Issue has also been revised. Under the DRHP, in accordance with Regulation 6(2) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, at least 75% of the Net Issue was proposed to be allocated to Qualified Institutional Buyers, with not more than 15% of the Net Issue available for allocation to Non-Institutional Bidders and not more than 10% of the Net Issue available for allocation to Retail Individual Bidders.
In accordance with Regulation 6(1) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, not more than 50% of the Net Issue is available for allocation to Qualified Institutional Buyers, not less than 15% of the Net Issue is available for allocation to Non-Institutional Bidders and not less than 35% of the Net Issue is available for allocation to Retail Individual Bidders, subject to applicable law. Accordingly, the proportion of the Net Issue available for allocation to Retail Individual Bidders has increased, while the proportion available for allocation to Qualified Institutional Buyers has decreased, compared with the allocation structure contemplated in the DRHP.
There can be no assurance regarding the level of participation by any category of investors, including Qualified Institutional Buyers, Non-Institutional Bidders or Retail Individual Bidders, or that the revised allocation structure will result in adequate subscription from any particular category of investors. For further details, see “Issue Structure” and “Issue Procedure” on pages 477 and 483, respectively.
11. Demand for lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery is discretionary in nature, and any sustained decline in discretionary consumer spending, adverse macroeconomic conditions or shifts in consumer preferences could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Our business involves the design, manufacturing and sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, which is largely a discretionary consumer product. Demand for our products is influenced by consumer spending patterns, purchasing power, lifestyle preferences and prevailing economic conditions. As a result, our business is inherently sensitive to changes in discretionary consumption.
A significant portion of our revenue is derived from our B2B operations, under which we supply jewellery to organised retailers, wholesalers and distributors. Demand from such customers is directly linked to end-consumer demand. Any reduction in consumer spending on discretionary items such as jewellery may lead to lower order volumes, delays in procurement decisions or reduced inventory stocking by our customers, thereby adversely affecting our revenues.
Further, the jewellery industry is influenced by broader macroeconomic factors such as inflation, interest rates, income levels, employment conditions, currency fluctuations and overall economic growth. Any adverse changes in these factors may reduce consumer confidence and discretionary spending, particularly in premium or non-essential product categories such as lab-grown diamond jewellery.
Demand for our products is also affected by consumer preferences and perception towards lab-grown diamonds as compared to natural diamonds or other forms of jewellery and investment. Any shift in consumer preference away from lab-grown diamonds, whether due to pricing dynamics, perceived value, social trends or competitive offerings, could adversely impact demand for our products.
Additionally, gold jewellery is often viewed as both a consumer product and investment assets. Changes in consumer investment behaviour, including preference for alternative asset classes such as real estate, equities, digital assets or other financial instruments, may impact demand for gold-based jewellery products.
Our recently commenced D2C operations (from July 2025) under Ayaani are also dependent on our 48ability to attract and retain customers in a competitive retail and online environment. Any decline in consumer demand or inability to effectively position our brand may impact our D2C growth prospects.
During periods of economic uncertainty or slowdown, consumers may defer or reduce discretionary purchases, including jewellery. Such trends may also lead to increased price sensitivity, inventory corrections by retailers and downward pressure on pricing and margins across the value chain.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business attributable to decline in discretionary demand. However, past trends may not be indicative of future performance.
Accordingly, any sustained decline in discretionary consumer spending, adverse macroeconomic conditions, or shifts in consumer preferences or investment behaviour could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
12. Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations, and lower-than-expected sales during peak periods may have a disproportionate effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations, primarily driven by festive, wedding and occasion- based demand for jewellery in India. As a result, our sales are not uniform throughout the year, and a significant portion of our revenue is generated during certain peak periods.
The quarter wise details of our revenue based on Restated Consolidated Financial Information from
operations are set out below: (₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Fiscal 2026 % of total Fiscal % of Fiscal % of revenue 2025 total 2024 total revenue revenue Quarter 1: April to June 354.83 17.49 127.31 13.15 80.54 15.01 Quarter 2: July to September 532.33 26.24 261.28 26.98 127.62 23.79 Quarter 3: October to 429.68 21.18 307.27 31.73 165.69 30.88 December Quarter 4: January to March 712.11 35.10 272.58 28.14 162.70 30.32 Total 2,028.94 100.00 968.45 100.00 536.55 100.00 As certified by the Statutory Auditors vide their certificate dated September 23, 2026.
Our revenues are typically higher during the second half of the fiscal year, particularly in the third and fourth quarters, which coincide with major festive and wedding seasons in India. For instance, in in last three Fiscals, a substantial portion of our annual revenue was generated during the second half of the year.
This seasonality exposes us to several risks. Any disruption during peak demand periods, including economic slowdowns, adverse changes in consumer sentiment, fluctuations in gold prices, supply chain disruptions, regulatory changes or unforeseen events, may have a disproportionate impact on our annual revenues and profitability.
Further, our ability to meet peak season demand depends on accurate demand forecasting, timely procurement of raw materials, adequate inventory planning and efficient production and logistics. Any failure in these areas may result in missed sales opportunities during peak periods, which may not be recoverable in subsequent periods.
Conversely, during non-peak periods, lower sales volumes may result in underutilization of capacity, higher inventory holding costs and pressure on margins.
In addition, our D2C operations under Ayaani are also influenced by seasonal buying patterns, and any inability to align product offerings, pricing strategies and marketing efforts with such demand cycles 49may adversely affect performance.
Accordingly, any adverse impact on sales during peak periods, or inability to effectively manage seasonal fluctuations, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
13. Our D2C operations under Ayaani are subject to risks associated with omnichannel retail operations, including store performance, franchise management, customer experience and buyback obligations.
Any inability to effectively manage or scale such operations could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Our D2C operations are carried out under the brand name Ayaani through our subsidiary, which operates an omnichannel retail platform comprising an online storefront and ten (10) physical retail stores across eight (8) cities in India, through a combination of company-operated and franchise- operated formats as part of our asset-light model. For details of such stores, see “Our Business – Business Operations - D2C Business Operations” on page 226.
Our ability to successfully operate and scale such omnichannel D2C business is subject to several risks.
The performance of our retail operations depends on factors such as store location, footfall, customer preferences, local competition, brand visibility and operational efficiency. Any underperformance of our retail stores may adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
Further, a portion of our stores are operated through franchise arrangements. While such model enables us to expand our presence with relatively lower capital deployment, it exposes us to risks relating to franchisee performance, operational control, adherence to brand standards, customer experience and compliance with our policies. Any failure by franchisees to maintain required standards may adversely affect our brand reputation and customer trust.
Our D2C operations also require effective coordination across online and offline channels, including inventory Synchronization, order fulfilment, logistics and customer service. Any inefficiencies in managing such omnichannel operations may lead to delays, stock mismatches or customer dissatisfaction. In addition, our D2C model involves customer-facing obligations such as buyback and exchange policies. Under such policies, customers are eligible to receive a specified percentage of the prevailing market value of diamonds at the time of buyback or exchange. Since the commencement of our D2C operations under Ayaani in July 2025, we have not experienced any material instances relating to customer-facing obligations such as buyback and exchange policies. Any significant increase in customer participation in such programs, adverse movements in market prices, or mispricing of such policies may result in financial exposure, increased cash outflows or pressure on margins.
Further, our D2C operations require ongoing investments in store expansion, marketing, personnel, technology and inventory. There can be no assurance that such investments will generate expected returns or that our D2C operations will achieve profitability in a timely manner. Our operations are also exposed to risks relating to management of retail personnel, customer engagement and after-sales service. Any failure to deliver consistent customer experience across locations may adversely affect brand perception and repeat business.
While our integrated manufacturing and sourcing capabilities support our D2C operations, any disruption in supply, delays in fulfilment or inability to meet customer expectations may adversely affect sales and customer relationships. During the last three Fiscals, our D2C operations have been at a relatively early stage and have not materially impacted our financial performance. However, past performance may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability to effectively manage, integrate or scale our omnichannel D2C operations under Ayaani brand, including risks associated with franchise operations and customer-facing policies, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
14. An FIR has been filed in relation to alleged misappropriation of inventory, and any fraud, employee 50negligence, alleged misappropriation of inventory or similar incidents may adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows.
Our operations may be subject to incidents of theft and damage to inventory or raw materials in transit and prior to or during stocking. The business may also encounter some inventory loss on account of vendor fraud, security lapse and general administrative error. While we have not experienced any instance of theft, fraud or employee negligence during the last three Fiscals, which had material an adverse effect on our business operations, we cannot assure you that such instance will not arise in the future.
However, there has been an isolated instance identified through internal audit. On September 2, 2025, pursuant to findings of an internal audit conducted on August 24, 2025, we registered a First Information Report (FIR No. 0192) at Sardarpura Police Station, Jodhpur, against certain employees of Ayaani’s Jodhpur store, alleging misappropriation of inventory. The matter involves theft of 16 gold items (including coins, chains and rings) having an aggregate value of approximately ₹1.33 million, wherein genuine inventory was replaced with imitation and adulterated items. For details, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Development - Litigation filed by our Subsidiaries – Criminal Litigations” on page 447.
15. One of our Independent Directors was previously associated with a company which was subsequently struck off by the Registrar of Companies. Any adverse regulatory observation in relation to such association may affect our reputation.
Nair Ajit Velayudhan, an Independent Director of our Company, was previously associated with Convergent Realtors Private Limited. Nair Ajit Velayudhan resigned from Convergent Realtors Private Limited on February 28, 2011. Subsequently, Convergent Realtors Private Limited was struck off by the Registrar of Companies on November 11, 2014.
Nair Ajit Velayudhan had ceased to be associated with Convergent Realtors Private Limited prior to the date on which it was struck off. Further, based on available records and confirmations received, there are no proceedings, liabilities, penalties, adverse observations or adverse findings against Nair Ajit Velayudhan in relation to Convergent Realtors Private Limited or its striking off.
However, we cannot assure you that any regulatory authority may not raise queries or observations in the future in relation to his past association with Convergent Realtors Private Limited. Any such queries, observations or proceedings, even if eventually determined in his favour, may divert management attention, require expenditure of resources and may adversely affect our reputation, corporate governance perception and business operations
16. Our business is dependent on the availability and price of lab-grown diamonds and gold bullion, which together constituted 90.77%, 88.38% and 95.14% of our total raw material purchases during the Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. Any volatility in the prices or disruption in the supply of such materials could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our business involves the design, manufacturing and sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery and is therefore inherently dependent on the procurement of lab-grown diamonds and gold bullion, which together constitute a substantial portion of our total raw material costs. The details of our key raw material purchases based on standalone financial information are set out below, for the indicated
period: (₹ in million unless stated otherwise) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Amount % of total Amount % of total Amount % of (₹ in million) purchase (₹ in million) purchase (₹ in total million) purchase Lab- 334.56 18.44 276.34 27.82 157.06 34.79 grown 51diamond Gold 1312.29 72.33 601.54 60.56 272.49 60.35 Others* 167.37 9.23 115.38 11.62 21.95 4.86 Total 1,814.22 100.00 993.26 100.00 451.50 100.00 *Others include alloys and other gold consumables.
As certified by the Statutory Auditors vide their certificate dated September 23, 2026.
The prices of gold bullion are highly volatile and are influenced by several factors, including global demand and supply dynamics, inflation, interest rates, currency fluctuations, geopolitical developments, central bank policies and macroeconomic conditions. Similarly, the pricing and availability of lab- grown diamonds may be impacted by technological advancements, changes in production capacity, demand-supply imbalances and competitive dynamics.
Any significant increase in the prices of gold or lab-grown diamonds may lead to an increase in our cost of production. While we may seek to pass on such increases to our customers, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so fully or in a timely manner, particularly in a competitive and price-sensitive market. Any inability to pass on such cost increases may adversely impact our margins and profitability.
A small portion of our revenue from operations is derived from overseas customers on an order-driven basis. Our overseas revenues constituted 2.56, 0.07% and 0.85% of our revenue from operations during the Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Such overseas revenues were primarily derived from select geographies, including the United Arab Emirates, Canada, Taiwan, Australia and Kenya. In relation to orders from overseas customers, we may be exposed to additional risks arising from fluctuations in raw material prices during the procurement, production and delivery cycle, foreign exchange movements, international logistics, customs procedures, changes in import-export regulations, payment collection timelines and customer-specific quality or delivery requirements. Any adverse movement in raw material prices or disruption in procurement or delivery timelines may affect our ability to service overseas orders in a timely and profitable manner, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Further, our business is largely order-driven, and we procure raw materials from domestic market based on customer requirements and production schedules. This exposes us to risks arising from price fluctuations during the procurement and production cycle. Any adverse movement in prices between procurement and sale may result in margin compression or losses on specific orders.
In addition, any disruption in the supply of gold bullion or lab-grown diamonds, whether due to regulatory restrictions, import policies, supplier concentration, logistical disruptions or other external factors, could impact our ability to procure such materials in a timely manner. This may result in delays in production, inability to fulfil customer orders, increased procurement costs or loss of business opportunities.
We also maintain inventory of raw materials and finished goods, which exposes us to the risk of valuation losses in the event of a decline in gold prices. Any such inventory write-downs may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
While we may undertake certain measures to manage raw material price risks, including pricing adjustments and inventory management, we do not have complete control over fluctuations in raw material prices or supply conditions, and such measures may not be sufficient to fully mitigate the associated risks.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business attributable to volatility in raw material prices or supply disruptions. However, past trends may not be indicative of future performance.
17. Our pricing is influenced by fluctuations in the prices of gold and lab-grown diamonds, and any inability to effectively pass on such cost variations or maintain competitive pricing could materially and adversely affect our margins, business, financial condition and results of operations.
52The pricing of our lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery products is primarily influenced by prevailing market prices of gold and lab-grown diamonds, which constitute our key raw materials.
Accordingly, fluctuations in gold prices and lab-grown diamond prices have a direct impact on our product pricing and cost structures.
We determine the pricing of our products based on a structured mechanism that takes into account various factors, including the cost of gold and lab-grown diamonds, labour charges, design and manufacturing costs, marketing expenses and operational overheads. However, there can be no assurance that our pricing strategies will be sufficient to maintain profitability under all market conditions.
Under our B2B operations, pricing is typically determined based on customer-specific requirements, including purity, weight specifications, design complexity and order volumes, and is aligned with prevailing market practices, including fixing of gold prices at the time of order execution. However, there may be a time lag between procurement of raw materials and execution of orders, which exposes us to the risk of price fluctuations. Any adverse movement in raw material prices during this period may result in margin compression.
Further, our ability to pass on increases in raw material costs to our customers depends on market conditions, customer relationships and competitive dynamics. In a competitive environment, we may not be able to fully pass on such increases, which may adversely impact our margins.
Under our D2C operations, pricing is generally standardised across retail and online channels and is influenced by product positioning, customer affordability and competitive pricing benchmarks. Any significant volatility in raw material prices may require frequent adjustments to product pricing, which may affect customer demand, sales volumes and brand perception.
Additionally, our pricing is subject to competitive pressures from both organised and unorganised players, including those offering natural diamond jewellery and lab-grown diamond jewellery.
Competitors may offer similar products at lower prices, which may limit our ability to maintain or increase pricing.
Our pricing strategy also involves balancing affordability with design-led offerings under Ayaani. Any misalignment in pricing, including overpricing or under pricing of products, may adversely affect demand, margins and brand positioning.
Further, fluctuations in pricing of gold and lab-grown diamonds may also impact inventory valuation, which may result in write-downs or losses in the event of a decline in prices.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business due to pricing inefficiencies. However, past performance may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability to effectively manage pricing strategies, respond to raw material price volatility or remain competitive in pricing could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
18. Our business is dependent on demand for our customers products and evolving end-consumer preferences, including acceptance of our designs. Any decline in such demand, failure to anticipate design trends or inability to achieve market acceptance for our designs could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Our B2B business model involves the design, manufacture and supply of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to organised retailers, wholesalers and distributors, who in turn sell such products to end consumers. Accordingly, our revenues are directly dependent on the demand for our customers’ products and their ability to successfully market and sell such jewellery.
Our business is design-led and driven by our ability to develop and offer a diverse portfolio of jewellery that aligns with evolving consumer preferences, fashion trends and regional demand patterns.
53Consumer preferences in the jewellery industry are dynamic and influenced by factors such as changing fashion trends, cultural preferences, purchasing behaviour, seasonal demand and macroeconomic conditions.
Further, As per CareEdge Report, the demand for lab-grown diamond jewellery is increasingly influenced by younger consumer demographics, including Gen Z and Millennials, who typically prioritise factors such as affordability, design innovation, transparency and ethical sourcing. For details, see “Industry Overview - Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry – Methods of Production of Lab- Grown Diamonds – Cost Analysis” on page 198. Any shift in preferences of such consumer segments, or failure to effectively cater to their evolving expectations, may adversely affect demand for our products.
Any decline in end-consumer demand for jewellery, including lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, or any shift in preferences away from our product offerings, may result in reduced order volumes from our customers and adversely affect our business. Further, the lab-grown diamond jewellery segment is relatively evolving, and its continued adoption is influenced by consumer awareness, perception of value and acceptance across different demographic segments. There can be no assurance that the growth in acceptance of such products will continue at anticipated levels.
Our success also depends on our ability to continuously identify emerging design trends, anticipate customer preferences and translate such insights into commercially viable designs. Any failure to accurately forecast or respond to such trends may result in reduced demand for our products, lower
order volumes and loss of customer relationships. In particular, our B2B customers select designs based on their own merchandising strategies and end-consumer demand, and any mismatch between our design offerings and their expectations may adversely affect our business.
Further, we maintain inventory of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods, including standardised and newly developed designs. If certain designs fail to achieve market acceptance, such inventory may become slow-moving or obsolete. In such cases, we may be required to offer discounts, recycle or rework inventory, which could result in material losses, additional processing costs and an adverse impact on our margins, profitability and cash flows.
In addition, our designs may be subject to imitation or duplication by competitors. Given the nature of our business, which involves frequent development and refresh of designs, we do not typically register individual designs under applicable intellectual property laws. As a result, our design portfolio may not be fully protected from third-party replication, which may reduce product differentiation, erode competitive advantage and exert downward pressure on pricing and margins.
Our D2C operations under Ayaani are also dependent on our ability to offer relevant, differentiated and appealing designs to end consumers. Any failure to maintain design relevance or align with consumer preferences, particularly among younger demographics, may adversely affect customer acquisition, conversion rates, brand positioning and sales.
While we intend to expand and diversify our customer base and strengthen our design and product offerings, there can be no assurance that such initiatives will be successful or that our customers will achieve desired levels of sales in the lab-grown diamond jewellery segment.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business attributable to decline in demand, failure of design acceptance or duplication by competitors. However, past trends may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any decline in demand for our customers’ products, inability to anticipate or respond to evolving consumer preferences (including among Gen Z and Millennials), failure to achieve market acceptance for our designs or inability to adequately protect our designs could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
19. Our Company has not obtained any credit ratings, which may adversely affect our ability to access debt on favourable terms or at all.
54As of the date of this Prospectus, our Company has not obtained any credit ratings from any credit rating agency as no such credit rating has been required in the ordinary course of our operations or under our existing financing arrangements. However, credit ratings are commonly used by lenders, financial institutions and other market participants to assess the creditworthiness of a borrower and to determine the pricing, structure and terms of financing.
The absence of a credit rating may limit our ability to access certain sources of debt financing, restrict the pool of potential lenders, or result in higher interest rates, more restrictive covenants, additional security requirements or shorter tenures for borrowings. Certain institutional lenders or investors may be unwilling or unable to extend credit to entities that do not have an external credit rating.
Further, in the event we seek to raise additional debt in the future to fund working capital requirements, capital expenditure or business expansion, we may be required to obtain a credit rating. There can be no assurance that such rating, if obtained, would be favourable, or that we would be able to obtain a rating within the timeframe required for our financing needs.
During the last three Fiscals, we were not required to obtain any credit rating and the absence of a credit rating has not resulted in any inability to avail borrowings or any material adverse impact on our access to bank financing. However, past access to financing may not be indicative of future outcomes, and we cannot assure that the absence of a credit rating will not adversely affect our financing options in the future.
Accordingly, the absence of a credit rating, or any adverse perception arising therefrom, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
20. Except for one of our Independent Directors, none of our Directors have prior experience serving on the board of a listed company, which may require additional time for them to fully adapt to the regulatory and governance requirements applicable to listed entities.
Except for Anu Ashish Amodia, one of our Independent Director who currently serves as an independent director on the board of a listed company, none of our Directors have prior experience serving as directors of listed companies in India or overseas. Upon listing of our Equity Shares, our Company will be subject to enhanced regulatory, disclosure and corporate governance requirements under the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 and the Companies Act, 2013.
While our Directors collectively bring relevant industry knowledge, business experience and strategic insight, the transition to operating as a listed company may require them to devote additional time and attention to understanding and complying with the governance standards, compliance frameworks, disclosure obligations and fiduciary responsibilities applicable to listed entities. The absence of prior listed-company board experience among most of our Directors may result in a learning curve during the initial period following listing.
Any delay or inefficiency in adapting to these requirements, or any inadvertent non-compliance with applicable regulatory obligations, could expose our Company to regulatory scrutiny, penalties or reputational impact, and may adversely affect investor confidence, our corporate governance standards and, consequently, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
21. Our ability to protect and maintain our intellectual property, including our trademarks and designs, is important to our business. Any failure to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, including the fact that our designs are not registered, could adversely affect our brand, competitive position and business.
As of the date of this Prospectus, our Company and our Subsidiaries have obtained registration of certain trademarks under the Trade Marks Act, 1999, primarily in Classes 14 and 35, which relate to jewellery and retail services. These trademarks are important to our branding, marketing and customer recognition.
55As on the date of this Prospectus, our Company and our Subsidiaries has registered the following trademark with the Registrar of Trademarks under the Trademarks Act, 1999:
Date of Registration* Particulars of the Mark Trade Mark Class of Number Registration December 26, 2023 5495107 14 September 7, 2023 5495110 14 March 20, 2024 5933383 35 April 10, 2024 5933448 35 May5, 2024 5951934 14 May 17, 2024 5933607 35 March 16, 2024 5933360 35 July 6, 2023 5495109 14 * The Trademarks are duly registered trademarks of the Company and its subsidiaries and no royalty, license fee or recurring payment is being made to the Promoters, members of the Promoter Group, related parties or any third party for use of such trademarks or any other intellectual property rights.
However, our intellectual property portfolio is limited primarily to trademarks, and our jewellery designs are not registered under Designs Act, 2000. Given the nature of our business, which involves frequent development and refresh of designs based on evolving trends and customer preferences, we do not typically seek registration of individual designs.
As a result, our design portfolio may not be fully protected from unauthorized use, imitation or replication by third parties. In the absence of formal design registrations, we may have limited legal recourse against competitors who replicate or imitate our designs, which could dilute the distinctiveness of our offerings and adversely affect our competitive position.
Further, even with respect to our registered trademarks, there can be no assurance that such protections will be sufficient to prevent misuse, infringement or unauthorized use by third parties. Any infringement or misuse of our intellectual property may require us to initiate legal proceedings, which could involve significant costs, management time and uncertainty of outcome.
Additionally, we may be exposed to the risk of claims alleging infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. Any such claims, whether or not successful, could result in litigation costs, damages, injunctions or reputational harm.
Our ability to sustain Ayaani brand, particularly under our D2C operations, is also dependent on our ability to protect our intellectual property and maintain brand distinctiveness. Any failure to do so may adversely affect customer perception, brand recall and market positioning.
56During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business due to intellectual property infringement or inability to protect our intellectual property. However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability to adequately protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, including risks arising from non-registration of our designs, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
22. We may not be able to effectively hedge against fluctuations in gold prices, and any volatility in gold prices could materially and adversely affect our margins, cash flows and financial condition.
Gold bullion constitutes a significant portion of our raw material costs, accounting for 72.33%, 60.56%, and 60.35% of our total purchases during the Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, respectively based on restated standalone financial information. Accordingly, our business is highly exposed to fluctuations in gold prices.
Gold prices are inherently volatile and are influenced by several factors beyond our control, including global demand and supply dynamics, inflation, interest rates, currency fluctuations, geopolitical developments, central bank policies and macroeconomic conditions. Any significant fluctuation in gold prices may impact our cost of procurement and overall profitability.
While we may undertake certain measures to mitigate the impact of price volatility, including pricing adjustments and inventory management, however, we do not have a comprehensive or fully effective hedging mechanism to offset fluctuations in gold prices. In particular, our ability to hedge gold price risk through financial instruments or forward contracts may be limited due to operational constraints, cost considerations, or the dynamic and order-driven nature of our business.
Further, our procurement of gold is closely aligned with customer orders and production schedules.
Any adverse movement in gold prices between procurement and sale may result in margin compression, particularly in cases where price increases cannot be passed on to customers in a timely manner.
Additionally, our inventory of gold and finished jewellery exposes us to valuation risks. In the event of a decline in gold prices, we may not be able to realise the full value of our inventory, which may lead to inventory write-downs and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Our exposure to gold price volatility is further accentuated by our working capital-intensive business model, which requires us to maintain significant levels of inventory and extend credit to customers.
Any adverse movement in gold prices during the operating cycle may increase working capital requirements and strain liquidity.
Although we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business due to inability to hedge gold price risks during the last three Fiscals, there can be no assurance that such risks will not materialise in the future.
Accordingly, any inability to effectively hedge against fluctuations in gold prices, or any significant volatility in gold prices, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
23. Our registered office, manufacturing facilities and key operational premises, including those of our subsidiaries, are located on leased properties, including from related parties, and any inability to renew or retain such premises could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We currently operate our registered office and manufacturing facilities, as well as those of our subsidiaries, from leased premises. As of the date of this Prospectus, all our key operational premises, including our registered office and manufacturing facility as well as the premises of our subsidiaries, are taken on lease.
57The following table sets forth details of the properties of our Company and our Subsidiaries, as of the
date of this Prospectus:

K. Road, Surat, Surat City, Gujarat, India,3950 08*^ *The property is leased from Rajnikanth Lallubhai Chanchad who is one of the Promoters, Chairman and Managing Director of our Company. ^ Lease/rent arrangements entered into with related parties have been undertaken in the ordinary course of business and on an arm’s length basis. All our leasehold properties are duly stamped and registered, to the extent required under applicable laws.
58All related party transactions entered into by our Company during the last three Fiscals were undertaken in the ordinary course of business and on an arm’s length basis, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, applicable accounting standards and other applicable laws.
Note: The rentals payable by the Company under the aforesaid lease arrangements with related parties have been determined having regard to prevailing market rentals for comparable properties in the relevant location. An independent rent benchmarking certificate dated September 10, 2026 issued by RERA registered broker has confirmed that the rentals payable under such arrangements are within the prevailing market range and are fair and reasonable
Note : Ayaani also has stores which it operates through a combination of company-owned and franchise-operated formats. For further details see “Our Business Operations” on page 222.
Note: Ratna LGD Private Limited was identified as a Material Subsidiary as of the date of the DRHP. However, based on the updated financial information of Fiscal 2026 and the applicable materiality criteria under SEBI ICDR Regulations, Ratna LGD Private Limited no longer qualifies as a Material Subsidiary of the Company Further, our Subsidiary, Ayaani, has ten (10) physical retail stores across eight (8) cities in India, operated through a combination of company-operated and franchise-operated formats as part of our asset-light model , with seven (7) stores being company-operated and three (3) stores being franchise- operated, located at Ahmedabad, Surat, Mathura, Delhi, Chandigarh, Jodhpur, Udaipur and Raipur. For details, see “Our Business – Business Operations – D2C Business Operations” on page 226.
Our dependence on leased premises exposes us to several risks. In the event that any of our lease agreements are terminated, not renewed upon expiry, or renewed on commercially unfavourable terms, we may be required to relocate our operations. Any such relocation could result in disruption of business activities, temporary suspension of operations, additional capital expenditure and loss of operational efficiency.
Further, our key operational facilities, including our manufacturing operations, are concentrated at leased premises. Any disruption in the availability or use of such premises, whether due to termination of lease arrangements, disputes with lessors, regulatory actions or other unforeseen circumstances, could adversely impact our ability to carry out operations in a timely and efficient manner.
Additionally, all our existing leased premises have been taken from related parties. While such arrangements have been entered into in the ordinary course of business and on commercially reasonable terms, there can be no assurance that such arrangements will continue in the future or be renewed on similar terms. Any change in terms or discontinuation of such arrangements may require us to identify alternative premises, which may not be available on suitable terms or at all.
Relocation of our manufacturing facilities may also involve regulatory approvals, time delays, costs associated with shifting equipment and infrastructure, and potential impact on employee retention and operational continuity.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material disruption in our operations due to issues relating to our leased premises. However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability to continue our lease arrangements, renew leases on favourable terms, or secure alternative premises in a timely manner could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
24. Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover all losses, and any uninsured or underinsured losses could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We maintain insurance policies that are customary for companies operating in the jewellery industry.
These include an Industry Protector Insurance Policy covering risks such as fire and allied perils, burglary, business interruption and public liability, and a Jewellers Package Insurance Policy covering stock and stock-in-trade, including jewellery, gold, bullion, diamonds, precious stones and other merchandise, including goods held in trust or on commission. In addition, our subsidiary operating under Ayaani has obtained a comprehensive insurance policy covering property at premises, property 59in custody, property in transit, fidelity risks and money.
The table below provides an overview of our insurance coverage for total assets during last three Fiscals
as per restated consolidated financial information: (₹ in million unless stated otherwise) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal Fiscal 2024 2025 Total assets secured (including gross block of 678.86 279.41 69.37 property, plant and equipment, inventories and cash balances) Sum Insured of Assets (₹ in millions) 762.50 120.50 88.00 Percentage of insurance coverage (in %) 112.32 43.13 126.86 As certified by Statutory Auditor vide their certificate dated September 23, 2026.
While we believe that our insurance coverage is adequate for our current operations and such policies are periodically reviewed, our insurance coverage is subject to standard exclusions, deductibles, limitations and conditions. Accordingly, our insurance policies may not cover all losses that we may incur, including losses arising from certain events that are uninsured or excluded under the relevant policies.
In particular, certain risks associated with our business, including operational disruptions, inventory losses, transit-related risks, employee misconduct, or other unforeseen events, may not be fully covered or may be subject to policy limits. Any such losses may require us to bear the financial impact directly.
Further, there can be no assurance that our insurance policies will be renewed on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, in the future. Any increase in insurance premiums or reduction in coverage may adversely affect our cost structure and risk exposure.
Additionally, any delay in settlement of insurance claims or disputes with insurers may adversely impact our liquidity and ability to recover losses in a timely manner. During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material losses that were not covered by our insurance policies. However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any uninsured or underinsured losses, or any inability to maintain adequate insurance coverage, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
25. There have been certain instances of delays in payment of statutory dues by our Company. Any further delays in payment of statutory dues may attract financial penalties and may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Set forth below are details of statutory dues paid and by our Company, for the periods indicated: (₹ in million unless stated otherwise) Governing Laws Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Contribution towards Employee Provident Fund (EPF) Average number of employees for 53 8 NA whom EPF paid Amount paid 2.08 0.26 NA Number of instances of delay 4 10 NA Contribution towards Professional Tax (PT) Average number of employees for 82 15 11 whom PT paid Amount paid 0.20 0.04 0.03 60Governing Laws Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Number of instances of delay 7 12 12 Contribution towards Employee State Insurance Corporation
(ESIC) Average number of employees for 53 14 NA whom ESIC paid Amount paid 0.35 0.09 NA Number of instances of delay 5 9 NA Tax deducted at source towards employee payments Number of employees for whom 2 1 0 TDS deducted Amount deducted and paid 1.32 0.03 Nil Number of instances of delay 2 1 NA As certified by the Statutory Auditors vide their certificate dated September 23, 2026.
The following table depicts instances of delays in the filing of GST returns by the Company on standalone basis.
Governing laws Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 GSTR1 0 1 0 GSTR3b 0 2 0 GSTR 9&9c NA 0 0 As certified by the Statutory Auditors vide their certificate dated September 23, 2026.
While the above delays were not material in amount and were subsequently paid and there were no material adverse regulatory actions pending against our Company arising from any delay in the payment or deposit of statutory dues. Any delay or failure to comply with statutory payment timelines in the future could expose us to interest, penalties audits, increased scrutiny by regulatory authorities and potential reputational damage.
Further, as our operations scale, our statutory compliance obligations are expected to increase in volume and complexity. Any weakness in internal controls, systems, personnel or processes relating to compliance management, or any liquidity constraints affecting timely payments, could increase the risk of future delays or non-compliance.
In order to mitigate such risks, we have undertaken steps to strengthen our compliance framework, including, implementation of structured processes for monitoring statutory due dates through compliance calendars, strengthening of our finance and accounts function, and adoption of system- driven tracking mechanisms to reduce manual intervention. Further, our senior management undertakes periodic review of statutory compliance status. However, there can be no assurance that such measures will be sufficient to prevent delays or non-compliance in the future.
Accordingly, any delay or failure in payment of statutory dues or compliance with applicable laws in the future could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and reputation.
26. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend on our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditure plans and the terms of our financing arrangements, and there can be no assurance that dividends will be declared or paid.
The declaration and payment of dividends on our Equity Shares, if any, will depend on several factors, including our future earnings, profitability, cash flows, overall financial condition, working capital requirements, capital expenditure plans, debt servicing obligations, compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and the terms and conditions of our financing arrangements. Our Board will also consider business and growth requirements, liquidity position, macroeconomic conditions, and such other factors as it may deem relevant from time to time.
61In addition, certain of our financing arrangements may contain restrictive covenants that may limit or condition our ability to declare or pay dividends, including requirements relating to maintenance of financial ratios, restrictions on distributions and lender consent provisions. Any such restrictions, as well as our need to retain earnings to fund operations, expansion, or debt repayment, may limit our ability to distribute dividends in the future.
We have not declared or paid any dividends on our Equity Shares during the last three Fiscals. There can be no assurance that our Board will recommend or declare dividends in the future, or that any dividends declared will be paid in any particular amount or at any particular time.
Accordingly, prospective investors should not rely on the payment of dividends as a source of return on their investment, and any return on investment in our Equity Shares is likely to depend primarily on appreciation in the market price of such shares. For further details, see “Dividend Policy” on page 280.
27. We are exposed to counterparty credit risk due to the extension of credit to our customers, and our trade receivables have increased from ₹40.64 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹160.64 million as of fiscal 2026, with receivable days increasing to 22 days. Any delay in, or non-receipt of, payments could materially and adversely affect our cash flows, working capital position and results of operations.
In the ordinary course of our business, we extend credit periods to our B2B customers, including retail chains, standalone retails and wholesalers, in line with industry practices and as part of our standard commercial terms. As a result, we are exposed to counterparty credit risk, including the risk of delayed payments or non-receipt of amounts due from our customers.
The details of our outstanding trade receivables and debtor days on standalone basis for the periods
indicated below are as follows: (₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Outstanding trade receivables 160.64 87.52 40.64 Trade receivables as % of revenue from operations 7.76 8.99 7.57 Trade receivable days 22 days 24 days 16 days Bad debts written off 1.69 Nil Nil Our trade receivables have increased significantly over the periods presented, both in absolute terms and as a percentage of revenue from operations, particularly during the Fiscal 2026. Outstanding trade receivables increased from ₹40.64 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹87.52 million in Fiscal 2025 and stood at ₹160.64 million as of Fiscal 2026.
Trade receivables as a percentage of revenue from operations have also increased, and receivable days have lengthened from 16 days in Fiscal 2024 to 22 days as of Fiscal 2026. This trend indicates an increase in capital deployed in receivables and a potential elongation of the receivables cycle.
The increase in receivables is attributable to higher business volumes, increase in gold prices, and extension of commercial credit terms to customers to remain competitive in a relationship-driven B2B jewellery market. However, any further elongation of the receivables cycle may require additional working capital funding.
Our exposure is further accentuated by the nature of our procurement cycle. We are generally required to make upfront payments for procurement of gold bullion and lab-grown diamonds, which are our primary raw materials, resulting in a structural mismatch between cash outflows and inflows.
Accordingly, our liquidity position is highly dependent on timely realization of receivables.
We have written off bad debts in the Fiscal 2026 and may not be able to recover amounts due from our customers in the future, There can be no assurance that similar write-offs or defaults will not occur in the future. Any deterioration in the creditworthiness, liquidity position or financial condition of our customers, including insolvency or financial distress, may result in delayed collections, renegotiation of payment terms or non-payment.
62Further, a significant portion of our revenue is derived from a limited number of customers. Any material delay or default by one or more large customers could have a disproportionate impact on our cash flows, liquidity and working capital requirements.
28. We have contingent liabilities in respect of tax matters under dispute amounting to ₹28.84 million as of Fiscal 2026. Any adverse outcome in such matters could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We have contingent liabilities in respect of claims against our Company not acknowledged as debt, primarily relating to tax matters under dispute.
The details of our contingent liabilities are set out below: (₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 A. Contingent Liabilities:
(a) Claims against the Company not acknowledged as debt
(i) Tax matters in dispute under appeal(1) 28.84 26.36 - Total Contingent Liabilities 28.84 26.36 - Contingent liabilities as a % of net worth 3.63 11.68 -
(1) An assessment u/s. 143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, was done in the case of the Parent Company for the A.Y. 2023-
24. In the said assessment an addition of ₹ 2,32,40,476/- was made to its income, on which a tax liability of ₹ 2,25,27,140/- was determined. The Parent Company has preferred an appeal against the same before the Commissioner of Income Tax
(Appeals), Income Tax Department. the said appeal is yet to be adjudicated.
The total contingent liability thus stands at ₹ 28.84 millions as of March 31, 2026 and ₹ 26.36 millions/- as of March 31, 2025, on account of accumulation of interest on aforesaid demand. The management believes that the Parent Company has a strong case on merits and expects a favorable outcome; consequently, no provision has been made in the books of accounts.
However, subsequent to the reporting date but prior to the date of signing of these Restated Consolidated Financial Information, the Board of Directors of Ayaani Diamonds and Jewellery Private Limited had called for the remaining amount payable on these shares. The same has been duly paid by the Parent Company. Thus, as of the date of signing of these Restated Consolidated Financial Information, the shares of the subsidiary have been fully paid-up and there remains no such capital commitment. For further details of such tax proceedings, see “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” on page 447.
The aforesaid contingent liabilities arise from tax proceedings under the Income Tax Act, 1961, in respect of which appeals have been filed and are pending adjudication. In the event of any adverse outcome, we may be required to pay the disputed amounts along with applicable interest and penalties, which could have an adverse impact on our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Further, tax litigation is inherently uncertain and involves significant management time and resources.
Any prolonged litigation or adverse orders may also impact our reputation and result in additional costs.
29. There are outstanding legal proceedings involving our Company, its Subsidaries and our Promoters.
Any adverse outcome in such proceedings may adversely affect our reputation, business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
There are outstanding legal proceedings involving our Company, its Subsidaries and Promoters. These proceedings are pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts, tribunals, enquiry officers and appellate tribunals.
A summary of the outstanding legal proceedings involving our Company, Directors and Promoters in accordance with requirements under the SEBI ICDR Regulations, to the extent quantifiable, has been set out below.

For details, see “Outstandinmg Litigation and Material Development - Litigation filed by our Subsidiaries – Criminal Litigations” on page 447.
Should any new developments arise, such as any rulings against us, we may need to make provisions in our financial statements that could increase expenses and current liabilities. Further, an adverse outcome in these proceedings may lead to a modification in our capital structure and may affect our reputation, standing and future business and could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
30. Our business, growth, operational execution and strategic direction are significantly dependent on the continued services of our Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel, senior management and our ability to attract, retain and effectively manage skilled personnel, including designers and karigars, and any inability to do so could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.
64Our business operations and future growth are significantly dependent on the experience, industry knowledge and continued involvement of our Promoters, Directors, KMP and senior management team.
Our Promoters collectively possess over 29 years of experience in the jewellery industry and are actively involved in key aspects of our operations, including design oversight, manufacturing coordination, quality control, customer engagement and strategic decision-making. Their understanding of industry dynamics, supplier networks and customer relationships is critical to the effective functioning of our business. Any loss of such leadership or reduction in their involvement may adversely affect our strategic direction and operational performance.
Our business is also dependent on our senior management who oversee key functions such as finance, production, administration and sales. The ability of our management team to anticipate market trends, manage operations efficiently, maintain customer relationships and implement our growth strategies is critical to our continued success. Any disruption in the functioning of our management team or inability to replace such personnel in a timely and effective manner may adversely impact our operational efficiency and strategic execution. We do not maintain key man insurance for our Promoters or senior management.
In addition, our business is design-led and operationally intensive and depends on the skills, experience and performance of our employees, particularly our design team and in-house karigars. As of August 31, 2026, we had a total workforce of 192 personnel, including 29 designers and 122 in-house karigars, who play a critical role in product development, manufacturing and quality control. Our ability to maintain product quality, ensure design innovation and execute customer orders in a timely manner is dependent on the continued availability of such skilled personnel.
The jewellery industry is highly competitive for experienced managerial and skilled personnel, and we face competition from other manufacturers, organised jewellery brands and unorganised players in attracting and retaining such talent. Any inability to offer competitive compensation, provide a conducive work environment or create growth opportunities may adversely affect our ability to attract and retain personnel. Further, our employee benefit expenses have increased in line with the growth of our operations and may continue to increase, which could adversely impact our profitability if not accompanied by corresponding growth in revenues.
Set out below are employee benefits expense incurred for the indicated period. (₹in million) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Employee benefits Expense* 79.23 30.83 22.36 *As per restated consolidated financial information.
Further, we have experienced higher employeduring the previous fiscals of our company. Any increase in attrition levels, particularly among key managerial personnel, designers or karigars, may disrupt operations, impact product quality and result in additional recruitment and training costs.
Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Attrition Rate (%) 46.41 13.64 6.67 Set out below are our function-wise and level-wise break up of attrition rate for the indicated period:
Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Karigars 55.45% 10.00% 0.00% KMP's 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% SMP's 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% Other Employees 31.91% 25.00% 22.73% Total 46.41% 13.64% 6.67% Our attrition rate increased from 6.67 % in Fiscal 2024 to 13.64% in Fiscal 2025 and 46.41% in Fiscal 652026 primarily due to Karigars and other employee exits in operational and sales support roles connected with our B2B business of lab grown diamond studded gold jewellery in Surat, Gujarat. Such exits were mainly attributable to normal workforce movement in the jewellery manufacturing ecosystem, including employees pursuing opportunities with other jewellery units, diamond and jewellery businesses, or other local employers in Surat. Further, since we had a limited employee base in Fiscal 2024, even a relatively small number of employee exits in subsequent years resulted in a higher attrition rate in Fiscal 2025 and 2026.
Our operations also depend on the continued availability of skilled karigars, whose expertise is critical to the manufacturing process. Any shortage or disruption in the availability of such personnel may adversely affect production timelines and our ability to fulfil customer orders. Additionally, our ability to scale our B2B operations and expand our D2C business under Ayaani is dependent on building and retaining a capable workforce across functions.
While we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business due to employee attrition or inability to retain personnel during the periods presented, past trends may not be indicative of future outcomes. Any inability to attract, retain or effectively manage our leadership team or skilled workforce, or any increase in employee costs or attrition levels, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.
31. There have been certain instances of delays and non-compliances with respect to statutory corporate filings in the past, which could expose us to regulatory actions and penalties.
In the past, our Company has experienced certain instances of delays and non-compliances in relation to statutory filings and compliances under the Companies Act, 2013 and applicable rules thereunder.
Such non-compliance include, inter alia, delay in appointment of our first statutory auditor beyond the prescribed timeline under Section 139 of the Companies Act, 2013, for which we filed a compounding application before the Regional Director, North-Western Region. The Regional Director, North- Western Region, vide its final order dated May 26, 2026, allowed the compounding application upon payment of a compounding fee of ₹1.50 lakh by the Company and ₹0.30 lakh by our Managing Director, aggregating to ₹1.80 lakh which has been duly paid and the application is closed. Further, there have been instances of delayed filings of statutory forms with the Registrar of Companies. Set out below are

In addition to the above, we have also undertaken revised filings, including in respect of return of allotment. We have undertaken measures to strengthen our internal compliance processes and ensure timely filings and adherence to applicable regulatory requirements including implementation of a structured compliance calendar for tracking statutory due dates, allocation of responsibility for statutory filings to designated personnel, strengthening of the finance and secretarial functions and periodic review of compliance status by senior management to reduce procedural oversight. While such instances have not resulted in any material adverse regulatory action against us to date, there can be no assurance that similar instances will not occur in the future.
Any delay or non-compliance with statutory requirements may subject us to regulatory scrutiny, penalties or other actions, and may impact our corporate governance profile and reputation.
Accordingly, any future delay or non-compliance with applicable statutory requirements could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
32. We operate in a high-value commodity sector and are exposed to risks associated with the storage, handling, transit and delivery of gold and lab-grown diamond jewellery. Any loss, theft or damage could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our business involves the procurement, manufacture and sale of high-value products, including gold, lab-grown diamonds and lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery. These products are inherently susceptible to risks of theft, pilferage, loss or damage during storage, handling, transportation and delivery.
Our operations require movement of inventory across multiple stages, including procurement of raw materials, transfer between manufacturing processes, storage at facilities, and delivery to customers under our B2B operations as well as distribution to our D2C retail stores and fulfilment of online orders.
Such multi-stage handling and transit increases our exposure to security risks.
Further, our inventory is stored across multiple locations, including manufacturing facilities and retail outlets. Any lapses in physical security measures, internal controls or monitoring systems may increase the risk of theft or pilferage.
Although we have implemented security protocols and maintain insurance coverage for our assets and inventory, there can be no assurance that such measures will be sufficient to prevent losses or that all such losses will be fully covered under our insurance policies. Certain losses may fall outside the scope of coverage or exceed policy limits, resulting in financial exposure.
Additionally, any such incidents may adversely affect our reputation, customer confidence and relationships, particularly in a trust-driven industry such as jewellery. During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material loss due to theft or damage of inventory. However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes. Accordingly, any loss, theft or damage of our inventory, particularly during transit or delivery, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
33. We have experienced significant growth in our revenue from operations, which increased from 67₹536.55 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹968.45 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹2,028.94 million in Fiscal 2026, and in our EBITDA, which increased from ₹54.76 million to ₹129.01 million and ₹309.74 million, respectively, during the same periods. Further, our profit after tax increased from ₹40.24 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹97.88 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹223.15 million in Fiscal 2026. However, our business has scaled significantly over a relatively short period, and such historical growth may not be sustained or may not be indicative of our future performance. Any inability to sustain our growth, margins or profitability or to effectively manage the scaling of our operations could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We have experienced significant growth in our revenue from operations, EBITDA and profit after tax during Fiscals 2024, 2025 and 2026. Certain key financial performance indicators, as disclosed in “Basis for Issue Price – Key Performance Indicators” on page 412, are set forth below:
Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Revenue from operations (₹ in million) 2,028.94 968.45 536.55 EBITDA (₹ in million) 309.74 129.01 54.76 EBITDA margin (%) 15.27 13.32 10.21 Profit after tax (₹ in million) 223.15 97.88 40.24 Profit after tax margin (%) 11.00 10.11 7.50 Our revenue from operations increased from ₹536.55 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹968.45 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹2,028.94 million in Fiscal 2026. Our EBITDA increased from ₹54.76 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹129.01 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹309.74 million in Fiscal 2026, while our EBITDA margin increased from 10.21% in Fiscal 2024 to 13.32% in Fiscal 2025 and 15.27% in Fiscal 2026. Further, our profit after tax increased from ₹40.24 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹97.88 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹223.15 million in Fiscal 2026, while our profit after tax margin increased from 7.50% in Fiscal 2024 to 10.11% in Fiscal 2025 and 11.00% in Fiscal 2026. For further details regarding our KPIs, including the definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures, see “Basis for Issue Price – Key Performance Indicators” on page 412.
Our growth during these periods was supported by the expansion of our B2B operations, increasing acceptance of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, scaling of our manufacturing capabilities and improvements in operational efficiencies. However, our business has scaled significantly over a relatively short period, and our historical growth rates and improvement in profitability and margins may not be sustained or may not be indicative of our future financial performance.
Our financial performance is subject to various risks, including fluctuations in customer demand, changes in consumer preferences, particularly in the evolving lab-grown diamond jewellery segment, volatility in gold and lab-grown diamond prices, working capital constraints, customer concentration, competitive pressures and our ability to effectively execute our growth strategies and manage the scaling of our operations. Any slowdown in revenue growth, reduction in customer demand, compression of margins, increase in costs or inability to effectively manage our expanded operations could adversely affect our business and financial performance.
Further, our average operating profit for Fiscals 2026, 2025 and 2024 only marginally exceeds the threshold prescribed under Regulation 6(1)(b) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. For details, see “Risk Factors – At the time of filing the DRHP, our net tangible assets for Fiscal 2023 and our average operating profit for Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023 were below the thresholds prescribed under Regulations 6(1)(a) and 6(1)(b), respectively, of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Although, following the inclusion of Fiscal 2026, we currently satisfy these eligibility requirements and the Issue is now proposed to be undertaken pursuant to Regulation 6(1) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, our average 68operating profit marginally exceeds the prescribed threshold, and we cannot assure you that we will maintain or improve our operating profit or other financial parameters in the future” on page 45.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to sustain our historical growth trajectory, maintain or improve our margins or profitability, or successfully manage the continued scaling of our business. Any inability to do so could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
34. We rely on third-party logistics providers for the transportation of gold, lab-grown diamonds and finished jewellery, and any loss, theft, damage, delay or failure in such logistics arrangements, notwithstanding insurance coverage, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our business involves the transportation of high-value raw materials, including gold and lab-grown diamonds, as well as finished lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, between suppliers, our manufacturing facility and customers under our B2B operations, as well as distribution to our D2C retail stores and fulfilment of online orders. Such transportation is inherently exposed to risks including theft, loss, damage, pilferage, fraud, accidents, mishandling, delays or other unforeseen events, particularly given the high value and portable nature of such products.
We engage third-party logistics service providers for the transportation of raw materials and finished jewellery. Such arrangements are typically short-term arrangements for a period of one years or on a need-based and shipment-specific basis, and the Company has not entered into any long-term or exclusive agreements with such logistics providers. While we undertake measures such as sealed packaging and tracking of shipments, we do not exercise direct operational control over such service providers. Any failure by such providers to adhere to agreed security protocols, delivery timelines or regulatory requirements, or any operational disruption, financial distress or misconduct on their part, could disrupt our supply chain, delay order execution and adversely affect customer relationships.
We maintain insurance policies customary for the jewellery industry, including coverage for stock and goods in transit. However, such insurance coverage may not be sufficient or fully effective in all circumstances. Insurance policies are subject to deductibles, exclusions, limits and procedural conditions, and claims may be disputed, delayed or denied. Further, such policies may not cover consequential losses such as business interruption, delays in fulfilment, reputational harm, penalties or loss of customer confidence. Any delay in settlement of insurance claims may also adversely affect our liquidity and working capital position.
The details of transportation costs incurred by us for the periods on restated consolidated financial
information basis indicated are set out below: (₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Amount Amount Amount % of total % of total % of total (₹ in (₹ in (₹ in expense expense expense million) million) million) Transportation 2.34 0.13 1.64 0.19 0.41 0.08 Cost Although transportation costs do not constitute a major cost proportion of our total expenses, each shipment typically involves high-value goods, and any loss, theft, damage or delay may have a disproportionate financial impact on our business. Further, any tightening of regulatory requirements relating to transportation, security or insurance of precious metals and jewellery, or any increase in logistics costs or insurance premiums, may increase our operating expenses and working capital requirements.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material loss or disruption during transit.
However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes. Accordingly, any loss, theft, damage or delay in the transportation of raw materials or finished jewellery, whether or not insured, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
35. Based on the comparison of our key performance indicators with listed industry peers for the periods 69included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, our scale of operations is lower than such listed industry peers and certain of our operational metrics, including inventory days, net working capital days and creditor days, may not be comparable with, or may compare unfavourably to, certain listed industry peers. Any inability to improve our scale of operations and manage our working capital cycle may adversely affect our liquidity, business operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Based on the comparison of our key performance indicators with listed industry peers for the periods included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, our revenue from operations was ₹2,028.94 million for Fiscal 2026 and ₹968.45 million for Fiscal 2025. In comparison, the revenue from operations of Golkunda Diamonds & Jewellery Limited, Goldiam International Limited and Renaissance Global Limited was ₹2,815.20 million, ₹9,768.57 million and ₹28,130.31 million, respectively, for Fiscal 2026 and ₹2,524.44 million, ₹7,809.78 million and ₹20,809.80 million, respectively, for Fiscal 2025.
The listed industry peers considered for comparison may differ from us in terms of scale of operations, product portfolio, customer profile, geographic presence, operating history, capital structure and business model. Accordingly, such comparison may not be strictly comparable. However, to the extent our scale of operations remains lower than such listed industry peers, we may face challenges in achieving economies of scale, absorbing fixed costs, negotiating favourable commercial terms with suppliers and customers, expanding our customer relationships and competing effectively with larger players having wider market presence and greater financial resources.
Based on the comparison of our operational key performance indicators with listed industry peers for the periods included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, our inventory days were 81 days for Fiscal 2026 and 59 days for Fiscal 2025, as compared to 20 days and 14 days, respectively, for Golkunda Diamonds & Jewellery Limited for the corresponding periods. Higher inventory holding may result in increased working capital requirements, storage and security risks, and exposure to risks arising from changes in customer preferences, design trends and inventory obsolescence.
Based on the comparison of our operational key performance indicators with listed industry peers for the periods included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, our net working capital days increased from 47 days in Fiscal 2024 to 105 days in Fiscal 2025 and further to 135 days for Fiscal
2026. Such increase was primarily driven by higher inventory holding and trade receivables. While our net working capital days were lower than certain listed industry peers for Fiscal 2026 and Fiscal 2025, any continued increase in our working capital cycle may require us to deploy additional funds in our operations, increase our reliance on borrowings and affect our liquidity and cash flows.
Based on the comparison of our operational key performance indicators with listed industry peers for the periods included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information, our creditor days were 10 days for the Fiscal 2026 and 9 days for Fiscal 2025, as compared to 36 days and 29 days for Golkunda Diamonds & Jewellery Limited, 34 days and 32 days for Goldiam International Limited and 21 days and 33 days for Renaissance Global Limited, respectively, for the corresponding periods. Lower creditor days may indicate shorter credit periods available from suppliers, which may require us to make payments to suppliers before realisation of receivables from customers. This may increase our working capital requirements and could adversely affect our liquidity, cash flows and results of operations.
For further details relating comparison of our key performance indicators with listed industry peers, see “Basis of Issue Price - Comparison of our key performance indicators with listed industry peers for the fiscal/period included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information” on page 157 If we are unable to improve our scale of operations, optimise inventory holding, manage our working capital cycle or obtain favourable credit terms from suppliers, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be materially and adversely affected.
36. Our revenues are predominantly derived from domestic markets which contributed ₹1,977.09 70million, ₹967.77 million, and ₹531.97 million, representing 97.44%, 99.93% and 99.15% of our total revenue from operations for Fiscal 2026, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2024, respectively. our limited presence in export markets may restrict our ability to diversify geographic risks. Any adverse developments in the domestic market or inability to scale export operations could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our revenues are predominantly derived from domestic operations, and during the last three Fiscals, domestic revenues constituted a substantial majority of our total revenue from operations. The following table sets forth a breakdown of our revenues from operations in India and overseas based on
Restated Consolidated Financial Information for the period indicated: (₹ in million unless stated otherwise) Particular Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 s Amount % Total Amount % Total Amount % Total Revenue Revenue Revenue Domestic 1,977.09 97.44 967.77 99.93 531.97 99.15 Revenue Overseas 51.85 2.56 0.68 0.07 4.57 0.85 Revenue Total 2,028.94 100.00 968.45 100.00 536.55 100.00 As certified by the Statutory Auditors vide their certificate dated September 23, 2026.
Accordingly, our business is significantly dependent on the performance of the Indian jewellery market.
Any adverse developments in the domestic market, including economic slowdowns, changes in consumer demand, regulatory or taxation changes, fluctuations in gold prices, or increased competition, could have a disproportionate impact on our revenues and financial performance.
While we have, in the past, undertaken export sales to select geographies, including the United Arab Emirates, Australia, Canada, Taiwan and Kenya, such exports have been limited and undertaken on an
order-driven basis. As a result, we have relatively limited experience in establishing, scaling and managing export operations.
Our ability to expand into export markets is subject to various risks and uncertainties, including compliance with international regulatory requirements, quality standards, logistics and supply chain complexities, foreign exchange fluctuations, customer acquisition challenges and competitive dynamics in overseas markets. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully scale our export operations or achieve meaningful contribution from such markets.
Further, our strategy involves selectively evaluating export opportunities without diluting our primary focus on the domestic market. This approach may limit the pace and scale at which we are able to diversify geographically and reduce dependence on domestic revenues. During the last three Fiscals, our limited export exposure has not materially impacted our business. However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability to mitigate risks associated with geographic concentration in the domestic market or to successfully develop export markets could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
37. We have incurred indebtedness of ₹133.12 million as of August 31, 2026 under our secured financing arrangements, which are subject to repayment obligations and restrictive covenants. Any inability to comply with such obligations or covenants could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We have availed various fund-based credit facilities, including term loans and working capital facilities, from banks to support our operations and working capital requirements. As of August 31, 2026, our total outstanding borrowings amounted to ₹133.12 million, comprising primarily cash credit facilities and term loans.
The details of our borrowings as of August 31, 2026 are set out below:
71(₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Sanctioned Amount Outstanding as on August 31, 2026 Term Loans 2.50 1.95 Working Capital Facilities (Cash Credit) 135.80 131.17 Total Borrowings 138.30 133.12 Our borrowings are secured by, inter alia, hypothecation of our current assets, including inventory and receivables, and movable fixed assets, as well as mortgages over immovable properties owned by our Promoters and personal guarantees provided by certain Promoters. For details, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 404. Accordingly, any default in repayment obligations may result in enforcement of such security interests, which could materially and adversely affect our operations and financial position.
Our financing arrangements also impose various restrictive covenants that may limit our operational and financial flexibility. Such covenants may constrain our ability to undertake certain strategic initiatives, including expansion, raising additional capital, or entering into new financing arrangements, without prior approval from our lenders. We have obtained consents from our lenders to undertake the Issue.
In addition, our financing agreements provide for certain events of default, including breach of covenants, delay in servicing interest or principal, cross-defaults under other financing arrangements, and delay in creation or perfection of security. Upon occurrence of an event of default, lenders may, among other actions, accelerate repayment obligations, charge penal interest, enforce security or initiate recovery proceedings.
Further, our borrowings are subject to interest obligations, including floating interest rates linked to benchmark rates such as the repo rate. Any increase in interest rates may increase our finance costs and adversely affect our profitability and cash flows.
Our working capital facilities are repayable on demand and are subject to periodic renewal. Any failure to renew or continue such facilities on favourable terms, or at all, may adversely impact our liquidity and ability to fund operations. While we have not had material non-compliance with the terms of our borrowing during in last there Fiscal, any event of non-compliance with covenants or delays in repayment, additional charges and penal interest may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our business is working capital intensive, and we rely on such borrowings to fund our operations. Any inability to service our debt obligations, comply with financing terms or access additional financing when required may adversely affect our liquidity, disrupt operations and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
38. Certain of our Promoters and a member of our senior management personnel (who is a former director) have provided personal guarantees and created security over immovable properties for certain loan facilities availed by our Company, and any default by us could result in enforcement actions against such Promoters and properties, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and operations.
We have availed certain secured credit facilities from banks, which are backed by, inter alia, personal guarantees provided by our Promoters and security created over immovable properties owned by them.
In particular, personal guarantees have been provided by Sonalben Rajnikant Chanchad, Rajnikant Lallubhai Chanchad and Raj Dineshbhai Monpara in connection with such borrowings. In addition, certain immovable properties owned by our Promoters have been mortgaged in favour of the lender as collateral security. These include, inter alia:
• property situated at Floors 5, 6 and 7 of Ratih House, Katargam, Surat, Gujarat, owned by Rajnikant Lallubhai Chanchad; and 72• property situated at Floor 4 of Ratih House, Katargam, Surat, Gujarat, owned by Sonalben Rajnikant Chanchad.
Our borrowings are also secured by hypothecation of our current assets, including inventory and receivables, and movable fixed assets. For details, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 404.
In the event of any default in repayment of our borrowings or breach of financing covenants, the lender may, among other remedies, enforce the security created over such properties and invoke the personal guarantees provided by our Promoters. Any such enforcement action could have several adverse consequences, including:
• loss of assets owned by our Promoters; • potential reputational impact on our Promoters and our Company; and • disruption to our operations and management focus.
Further, invocation of personal guarantees or enforcement of promoter-owned assets may affect the financial position of our Promoters and their ability to support our business, including through strategic guidance or financial assistance, if required.
While we have not experienced any default in repayment of our borrowings during the last three Fiscals, there can be no assurance that such defaults will not occur in the future.
Accordingly, any default by us under our financing arrangements could result in enforcement of personal guarantees and security provided by our Promoters, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
39. Our business is capital intensive, and our ability to raise additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, is critical to sustaining our operations and growth. Any inability to do so could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our business involves the design, manufacturing and sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery and is inherently capital intensive. We require continuous deployment of capital towards procurement of gold bullion and lab-grown diamonds, maintenance of inventory across various stages of production, extension of credit to customers and funding of day-to-day operating expenses.
Our working capital requirements have increased significantly in line with the growth of our operations, from ₹67.65 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹449.46 million in Fiscal 2026. Further, our working capital requirements are estimated to increase to ₹1,103.08 million in Fiscal 2027. Our liquidity position and growth are therefore dependent on a combination of internal accruals, bank borrowings and capital infusion.
As of August 31, 2026, our total outstanding borrowings amounted to ₹133.12 million. Our ability to service existing borrowings and meet incremental working capital requirements depends on our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations and maintain access to bank financing and other funding sources.
We have historically experienced negative cash flows from operating activities, primarily due to significant deployment of working capital in inventories and receivables. Any continued mismatch between cash inflows and outflows may further increase our dependence on external financing.
As part of our growth strategy, we propose to utilise a portion of the Net Proceeds towards funding our working capital requirements. For details, see “Objects of the Issue – Funding of working capital requirements of the Company” on page 140. However, there can be no assurance that the Net Proceeds will be sufficient to meet our future funding requirements or that we will not require additional financing.
If our internal cash flows are insufficient to meet our capital requirements, we may need to incur additional indebtedness or raise equity capital. Our ability to raise such financing is subject to various factors beyond our control, including prevailing economic conditions, availability of credit, interest rate 73movements, regulatory environment, capital market conditions, lender and investor sentiment and our financial performance.
Any additional indebtedness may increase our debt servicing obligations and could subject us to restrictive covenants that may limit our operational flexibility, capital expenditure plans or strategic initiatives. Further, if we are unable to raise additional capital in a timely manner, or if financing costs increase materially, our liquidity position could be adversely affected, which may constrain our ability to procure raw materials, fulfil customer orders, implement growth strategies or meet our contractual obligations.
During the last three Fiscals, we have been able to meet our funding requirements through a combination of internal accruals and financing. However, past funding availability may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability on our part to effectively manage our capital requirements or raise additional financing on acceptable terms could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
40. Our business is dependent on demand for our customers’ products and end-consumer preferences for lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, and any decline in such demand could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Our B2B business model involves the design, manufacture and supply of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to organised retailers, wholesalers and distributors, who in turn sell such products to end consumers. Accordingly, our revenues are directly dependent on the demand for our customers’ products and their ability to successfully market and sell such jewellery to end consumers.
Any decline in consumer demand for jewellery, including lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, whether due to changes in consumer preferences, reduced discretionary spending, macroeconomic conditions, shifts towards alternative investment or consumption categories, or reduced demand in key segments such as bridal, occasion-based or daily wear jewellery, may result in lower order volumes from our customers and adversely affect our business.
Further, the lab-grown diamond jewellery segment is relatively evolving, and its continued adoption is influenced by factors such as consumer awareness, perception of value, pricing advantages compared to natural diamonds and acceptance across different demographic segments. There can be no assurance that the growth in acceptance of lab-grown diamond jewellery, particularly among younger consumers such as Gen Z and Millennials, will continue at anticipated levels.
Our growth strategy includes expanding and diversifying our customer base, strengthening relationships with existing customers and onboarding new retailers and wholesalers, including those who may enter the lab-grown diamond segment. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully expand our customer base or that such customers will achieve desired levels of sales or scale in the lab-grown diamond jewellery segment.
In addition, our business is exposed to risks associated with demand patterns across various purchase segments, including daily wear, self-purchase, bridal and wedding categories. Any adverse trends in such segments may impact demand for our products.
Our D2C operations under Ayaani brand are also dependent on consumer demand, brand acceptance and our ability to effectively position our products across online and offline channels. Any inability to generate sustained demand in the D2C segment may adversely affect our revenues and growth prospects.
Further, any failure by our customers to effectively market, distribute or price their products, or any deterioration in their financial condition, may result in reduced procurement from us.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business due 74to decline in end-consumer demand. However, past trends may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any decline in demand for our customers’ products, or inability of our customers or us to effectively address end-consumer preferences, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
41. We operate in a highly competitive and fragmented jewellery market, and our inability to effectively compete on pricing, design, quality, delivery timelines and customer relationships could result in loss of market share and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
The jewellery industry in which we operate is highly competitive and fragmented, comprising a large number of organised and unorganised players, including domestic manufacturers, regional players, integrated jewellery brands, retailers with in-house manufacturing capabilities and importers. We also face competition from players operating in both natural diamond jewellery and lab-grown diamond jewellery segments.
As per the CareEdge Report, the competitive landscape for the lab grown diamond jewellery industry is characterised by competition from the natural diamond segment as well as increasing global and domestic rivalry. The natural diamond segment continues to benefit from strong brand legacy and emotional appeal, particularly in the luxury jewellery market. For details, see “Industry Overview – Threats and Challenges for the Gems and Jewellery Industry – Competition from Natural Diamond Segment” on page 201. Established players in this segment undertake significant marketing and brand- building initiatives, which reinforce the perceived exclusivity of natural diamonds. In comparison, lab grown diamond jewellery may be perceived by certain customer segments as lower in value or as substitutes, particularly among traditional buyers.
Our ability to compete effectively depends on several factors, including pricing, design innovation, product quality, manufacturing capabilities, turnaround time, reliability of supply and strength of customer relationships. Any inability to compete effectively on these parameters may result in loss of existing customers, reduced order volumes and difficulty in acquiring new customers.
In our B2B segment, we supply jewellery to organised retailers, wholesalers and distributors, who typically maintain relationships with multiple vendors. Such customers may evaluate suppliers based on pricing competitiveness, design relevance, quality standards, credit terms and delivery timelines.
Any failure on our part to meet such expectations may result in reduction or loss of business from such customers.
Further, certain of our competitors, including large jewellery brands and integrated players, may have advantages such as greater financial resources and access to capital, established brand recognition and customer loyalty, integrated manufacturing capabilities and supply chains and ability to offer competitive pricing due to economies of scale, which may enable them to compete more effectively with us.
In addition, unorganised players may operate with lower overhead costs and may offer products at lower price points, which may exert downward pressure on pricing and margins across the industry.
Our recently acquired D2C operations under Ayaani also operate in a highly competitive retail and e- commerce environment, where we compete with established jewellery brands, digital-first players and marketplaces. Our ability to scale such operations depends on our ability to differentiate our offerings, build brand recognition and maintain competitive pricing and product relevance.
Further, the lab-grown diamond jewellery segment is evolving and may attract new entrants, including established players from the natural diamond segment, which could intensify competition. During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business due to competitive pressures. However, past performance may not be indicative of future outcomes.
75Accordingly, any inability to effectively compete in a highly competitive and fragmented jewellery market could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
42. Our business is dependent on the efficient functioning of our information technology systems, including third-party software, and any disruption, failure or inadequacy of such systems could materially and adversely affect our business, operations, financial condition and results of operations.
Our operations are supported by a combination of internally deployed and third-party information technology systems, which enable us to manage key business functions including accounting, inventory management, production planning, human resources and customer interface across our B2B and D2C operations.
We utilise accounting and financial management software, including Tally-based systems, for maintaining books of accounts, statutory compliance, invoicing and financial reporting. We also utilizes computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) tools for efficient design, prototyping and manufacturing of our jewellery.Our inventory management and production processes are supported by software solutions such as ‘Gati’, which facilitate tracking of raw materials, work-in- progress and finished goods, and enable coordination between procurement, production and dispatch functions. In addition, we utilise software applications for payroll and human resource management, including employee attendance and salary processing.
Our dependence on such information technology systems exposes us to several risks, including system failures, software errors, data corruption, cyber security breaches, unauthorised access, hardware malfunctions and disruptions due to external factors such as power outages or network failures. Any such disruption may result in interruption of operations, errors in inventory tracking, delays in order processing, disruption in financial reporting or inability to manage key business functions effectively.
Further, a significant portion of our systems are based on third-party software solutions. Any failure, disruption, discontinuation of services, licensing issues or limitations in functionality of such third- party systems may adversely affect our ability to operate efficiently. We may also incur additional costs or face delays in migrating to alternative systems.
Our D2C operations under Ayaani further increase our reliance on technology platforms for customer interface, order management, inventory synchronisation and fulfilment. Any failure to maintain reliable and secure systems may adversely affect customer experience, order fulfilment and brand reputation.
In addition, our systems store and process financial, operational and employee-related data. Any loss, leakage or unauthorised access to such data may expose us to legal, regulatory and reputational risks.
While we undertake measures to maintain and upgrade our systems and protect against such risks, there can be no assurance that such measures will be sufficient to prevent disruptions or breaches.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact due to failure of our information technology systems. However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any disruption, failure, inadequacy or security breach of our information technology systems could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
43. Our ability to effectively market our products and maintain customer relationships is critical to our business, and any inability to do so, including limited marketing expenditure, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Our business is dependent on our ability to effectively market our products, maintain strong customer relationships and enhance brand visibility across both our B2B and D2C operations.
For our B2B segment, our marketing efforts primarily involve direct engagement with customers, 76including personalised visits and participation in jewellery exhibitions such as the India International Jewellery Show (IIJS). These initiatives enable us to showcase our product portfolio, introduce new designs, strengthen relationships with existing customers and establish connections with prospective customers.
For our D2C operations under Ayaani, our marketing strategy is focused on digital channels, including our online platform and social media presence, to support customer acquisition, engagement and brand building.
The details of our expenditure towards marketing activities are set out below for the indicated period:
Particulars For the Fiscals Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Amount % of total Amount % of total Amount % of total (₹ in million) expense (₹ in million) expense (₹ in million) expense Expense 13.92 0.79 2.12 0.25 1.71 0.35 towards marketing a*cAtsi vpietrie rse*st ated consolidated financial information Our marketing expenditure has historically constituted a relatively small proportion of our total expenses. While our business has relied on relationship-driven B2B marketing and targeted initiatives, there can be no assurance that such strategies will be sufficient to sustain growth, particularly as we expand into the D2C segment.
Our ability to generate and retain business depends on our continued engagement with customers, visibility at industry exhibitions and effectiveness of our digital marketing initiatives. Any inability to participate in key exhibitions, maintain customer relationships or execute effective marketing campaigns may adversely affect our ability to acquire new customers and retain existing ones.
Further, the success of our D2C operations is significantly dependent on our ability to build and scale the ‘Ayaani’ brand name. Digital marketing is subject to evolving algorithms, increasing competition, rising customer acquisition costs and changing consumer behaviour. Any inefficiencies in our digital marketing strategy or inability to effectively leverage online channels may adversely affect customer acquisition, brand visibility and sales.
Additionally, marketing initiatives, including participation in exhibitions and digital campaigns, involve costs that may not necessarily result in proportionate revenue generation. Any increase in marketing expenditure without commensurate returns may adversely impact our profitability.
Our reliance on relationship-driven marketing in the B2B segment may also expose us to risks associated with customer concentration and dependency on key relationships. Any disruption in such relationships may adversely affect our order volumes and revenue.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business due to ineffective marketing. However, past performance may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability to effectively execute our marketing strategies, increase brand visibility, manage customer relationships or optimise marketing expenditure could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
44. Our business is dependent on effective inventory management, and any inability to accurately plan, monitor and control inventory across our B2B and D2C operations could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our operations involve procurement, manufacturing and sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery and require us to maintain and manage inventory across multiple stages, including raw materials such as gold and lab-grown diamonds, work-in-process and finished goods. Our inventory management practices are based on targeted sales volumes, anticipated customer demand, seasonal trends and order-specific requirements.
77While we have implemented structured inventory management systems and monitoring processes, including use of software solutions and barcode-based tracking mechanisms, there can be no assurance that such systems will be adequate to manage inventory efficiently at all times, particularly as our operations scale.
Our inventory comprises a diverse portfolio of designs, including standardised and customised products catering to varying customer preferences across regions. Any inability to accurately forecast demand, design trends or customer preferences may result in excess inventory, slow-moving stock or stock imbalances across locations, which may adversely affect our working capital and profitability.
Further, our inventory and production planning involve a combination of manufacturing based on anticipated demand and production against confirmed orders. Any mismatch between production and actual demand may result in either understocking, leading to missed sales opportunities, or overstocking, leading to increased inventory carrying costs and potential obsolescence.
Our inventory management is also dependent on accurate tracking and reconciliation across multiple stages and locations, including manufacturing units, storage facilities and retail channels under our D2C operations. Any errors, system failures or lapses in inventory tracking may result in discrepancies, loss of stock, operational inefficiencies or delays in order fulfilment.
In addition, our inventory primarily comprises high-value materials such as gold and lab-grown diamonds. Any mismanagement, pilferage, theft or loss of such inventory may have a significant financial impact on our business.
Further, our inventory levels are closely linked to our working capital requirements. Any inefficiencies in inventory management may lead to higher capital being locked in inventory, thereby affecting our liquidity and increasing dependence on external financing.
While our proximity-based sourcing and integrated planning processes enable us to align procurement with production requirements, there can be no assurance that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate risks arising from demand variability, supply disruptions or operational inefficiencies.
During the last three Fiscals, we have not experienced any material adverse impact on our business due to inefficiencies in inventory management. However, past experience may not be indicative of future outcomes.
Accordingly, any inability to effectively manage our inventory, including forecasting demand, maintaining optimal stock levels and ensuring accurate tracking and control, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
45. Our manufacturing operations are dependent on adequate and uninterrupted supply of electricity and any disruption or shortage may adversely affect our operations, increase costs and impact our margins and profitability.
Our manufacturing operations at our facility located in Surat, Gujarat are dependent on continuous and reliable supply of electricity, which is required for operating machinery and carrying out various stages of production such as casting, polishing and finishing.
Any disruption, interruption or shortage in the supply of electricity, whether due to grid failures, infrastructure constraints, regulatory actions, natural calamities or other unforeseen events, may lead to interruption or slowdown of our manufacturing operations, delays in order fulfilment and increased operational inefficiencies.
Further, in the event of inadequate or unreliable utility supply, we may be required to rely on alternate sources of power, such as generators or other backup arrangements, which may result in higher operating costs and adversely affect our margins and profitability. Our operations are also exposed to risks associated with fluctuations in utility costs, including electricity tariffs, which may increase our cost of production.
78The details of our utilities expenses for the periods indicated are set out below: (₹ in million, unless otherwise stated) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Power expenses* 3.75 1.74 1.30 *As per restated consolidated financial information.
While we have not experienced any material disruption in utility supply during the last three Fiscals, there can be no assurance that such disruptions will not occur in the future. Accordingly, any shortage, interruption or increase in the cost of utilities could materially and adversely affect our manufacturing operations, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
46. We may not be able to successfully manage the growth of our business or effectively implement our strategies, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our growth strategy is focused on, inter alia, expanding and diversifying our customer base across B2B and D2C segments, increasing participation in marketing and industry engagement initiatives, strengthening our design-led product offerings, augmenting working capital resources, expanding our D2C omnichannel presence under Ayaani, and selectively evaluating export opportunities while continuing to focus on the domestic market. For details, see “Our Business – Our Strategies” on page
217.
The successful execution of these strategies is subject to various risks and uncertainties. Our ability to expand our customer base depends on our capability to onboard new retailers and wholesalers, strengthen relationships with existing customers and align our offerings with evolving consumer demand, including preferences across segments such as daily wear, self-purchase and bridal jewellery.
There can be no assurance that such initiatives will result in increased order volumes or sustained customer relationships.
Further, our strategy to expand our D2C operations under Ayaani involves risks associated with scaling retail operations, managing franchise networks, enhancing brand recognition, customer acquisition and integrating online and offline sales channels. Any inability to effectively execute such initiatives may adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
Our growth is also dependent on our ability to continuously innovate and expand our product portfolio in line with changing consumer preferences, including those of younger demographics such as Gen Z and Millennials. Any failure to anticipate or respond to such trends may adversely affect demand for our products.
In addition, our strategy to augment working capital resources is critical to supporting procurement of raw materials, maintaining inventory levels and extending credit to customers. Any delay or inability to deploy such resources effectively, including utilisation of Net Proceeds towards working capital requirements, may impact our operational efficiency and growth plans.
We also intend to increase our participation in marketing and industry engagement initiatives, including exhibitions and digital marketing efforts. However, there can be no assurance that such initiatives will translate into increased customer acquisition, brand visibility or revenue growth.
Further, while we intend to selectively evaluate export opportunities, our limited experience in international markets may restrict our ability to scale such operations or effectively manage associated regulatory, logistical and competitive challenges.
The implementation of our strategies may also place significant demands on our management, operational and financial resources. Any inability to manage growth, maintain operational efficiency, scale our systems and processes or control costs may adversely affect our business.
During the last three Fiscals, we have undertaken initiatives aligned with our growth strategy; however, there can be no assurance that such strategies will be successfully implemented or that they will result 79in the anticipated benefits.
Accordingly, any inability to effectively implement our growth strategies or manage the expansion of our operations could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
47. Any failure to obtain, renew or maintain requisite statutory and regulatory licences, permits and approvals required for our operations could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our business and operations are subject to various laws, regulations and regulatory requirements at the central, state and local levels. We are required to obtain, maintain and periodically renew certain statutory licences, permits and approvals for conducting our business.
Some of these licences, permits and approvals are subject to validity periods and require periodic renewals, while others may require fresh applications or amendments from time to time in the ordinary course of business. There can be no assurance that the relevant authorities will grant or renew such licences, permits or approvals in a timely manner or at all. Any delay, denial, suspension, cancellation or non-renewal of required approvals could result in interruption of our operations, imposition of penalties, restrictions on business activities, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Further, statutory and regulatory approvals are generally subject to compliance with specified conditions and ongoing obligations. Any actual or alleged non-compliance with the terms of such approvals or applicable laws and regulations could result in regulatory actions, including suspension or revocation of approvals, levy of fines and penalties on the Company and its officers in default.
Additionally, our business is subject to changes in applicable laws, regulations, government policies and regulatory interpretations. Any uncertainty, amendment or change in the interpretation, applicability or enforcement of such laws and regulations, could increase compliance costs, require operational adjustments or restrict our ability to expand our business. If we are required to incur additional costs to comply with regulatory changes or to defend regulatory proceedings, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. For further details, see “Government and Other Approvals” on page 452.
While there have been no material adverse regulatory actions, penalties or proceedings against our Company during the last three Fiscals arising from non-compliance with applicable laws, we cannot assure you that similar events will not occur in the future. Any such event may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
48. Our Promoters will continue to retain majority shareholding in our Company subsequent to the Issue, which will enable them to exercise significant influence over our Company, and any substantial change in their shareholding may adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares.
Our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group are the majority shareholders of our Company.
Upon completion of the Issue, our Promoters and Promoter Group will collectively hold 25,061,520 Equity Shares, representing 43.51% of our post-Issue paid-up Equity Share capital (assuming full subscription of the Issue). For details, see “Our Promoter and Promoter Group” and “Capital Structure” on page 273 and 121.
As a result, our Promoters will continue to exercise significant influence over our business policies and affairs and over matters requiring shareholder approval, including the composition of our Board of Directors, amendments to our memorandum and articles of association, decisions relating to dividends, borrowings, investments and other strategic matters.
This concentration of ownership may limit the ability of other shareholders to influence corporate actions and may also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our Company. In addition, transactions that may otherwise be beneficial to the Company or its public shareholders may be more difficult to implement without the approval of our Promoters. There can be 80no assurance that the interests of our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will always align with the interests of our Company or those of other shareholders, and any such divergence could adversely affect our business operations, strategic direction and corporate governance.
Further, any actual or perceived change in the shareholding of our Promoters, including a reduction in their stake or any pledge, transfer or encumbrance of their Equity Shares, could adversely affect investor perception and the market price and liquidity of our Equity Shares.
Accordingly, continued promoter control and any material change in our Promoters’ shareholding could materially and adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares, as well as our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
49. Our Promoters and Directors have interests in our Company in addition to their remuneration and reimbursement of expenses, which may give rise to potential conflicts of interest.
Our Promoters and Directors are interested in our Company to the extent of their shareholding in the Company and any dividends, bonus issues or other distributions that may be declared in respect of such Equity Shares. As controlling shareholders, our Promoters are in a position to exercise significant influence over the affairs of our Company. There can be no assurance that the interests of our Promoters will always align with the interests of the Company or those of other shareholders, including minority shareholders.
Certain of our Promoter and Directors have additional interests in our Company beyond their directorship and remuneration. In particular, our Promoters namely Rajnikant Lallubhai Chanchad and Sonalben Rajnikant Chanchad, have provided personal guarantees and security in favour of lenders to secure the borrowings availed by our Company and are interested to that extent. Further, our Promoters are also interested in the rent against the their properties being used by us for our business operations.
The existence of such interests may give rise to situations where the interests of our Promoters Directors may differ from or conflict with the interests of our Company or its other shareholders. While our Company follows applicable provisions of law relating to related party transactions, including disclosure and approval requirements, there can be no assurance that such potential conflicts will always be resolved in a manner that is favourable to our Company or minority shareholders. For further details regarding the interests of our Promoters and Directors, see “Our Promoters and Promoter Group”, “Our Management”, “Restated Consolidated Financial Information” on pages 273, 255 and 281.
50. Conflicts of interest may arise between our Company and certain of our Promoters, Directors and Promoter Group entities, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Certain of our Promoters, Directors and members of our Promoter Group have interests in other entities by virtue of their shareholding, directorships or other associations. Some of these entities are engaged in businesses similar to that of our Company or have objects in their constitutional documents that permit them to undertake activities similar to our business. As a result, potential conflicts of interest may arise between the interests of our Company and those of our Promoters, Directors or Promoter Group entities.
In order to mitigate such conflicts, our Company has entered into non-compete agreements with; (i) Shree Radhe Jewellers (partnership firm); (ii) JJS Jewels LLP; (iii) Shri Vardhman Ornaments Private Limited pursuant to which, it has been agreed, that the said entities shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in any business that competes with our business. However, there can be no assurance that the non-compete agreement will not be terminated, amended or varied in the future. Any termination, non- renewal or modification of the terms of the non-compete agreement could give rise to conflicts of interest between such entities and our Company.
Further, notwithstanding the non-compete agreements, we cannot assure you that our Promoters, Promoter Group or Promoter Group controlled entities will not, in the future, participate in or support business activities that may compete with our existing or proposed business lines. In the event that any 81conflicts of interest arise, our Promoters, Promoter Group or Promoter Group controlled entities may be required to make decisions relating to our operations, financial structure or commercial arrangements in circumstances where their interests may differ from those of our shareholders.
Any such conflicts, or the perception thereof, could adversely affect our corporate governance standards and our ability to pursue business opportunities on favourable terms and may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Further, we cannot assure you that any conflicts of interest that may arise in the future will be resolved in a manner favourable to our Company.
51. Certain sections of this Prospectus disclose information from the CarEdge Report which have been commissioned and paid for by us exclusively in connection with the Issue and any reliance on such information for making an investment decision in the Issue is subject to inherent risks.
Certain sections of this Prospectus include information based on or derived from the “Lab Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry in India” dated March 23, 2026 and updated on September 11, 2026 which has been prepared by CareEdge. The CareEdge Report has been commissioned and paid for by us and has been prepared in connection with the Issue. There are no parts, data or information (which may be relevant for the proposed Issue) that has been left out or changed in any manner. However, the CareEdge Report is prepared based on information as of specific dates and may no longer be current or reflect current trends. Further, certain information in the CareEdge Report is subject to limitations and is also based on estimates, projections, forecasts and assumptions. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on or base their investment decision solely on CareEdge Report. You should consult your own advisors and undertake an independent assessment of information in this Prospectus based on, or derived from, the CareEdge Report before making any investment decision regarding the Issue. For further details, see “Industry Overview” on page 170.
52. The objects of the Issue for which the funds are raised have not been appraised by any bank or financial institutions and are based on management estimates. Any revision in the estimates may require us to reschedule our expenditure and may have a bearing on our expected revenues and earnings. Further, if there are any delays or cost overruns, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
We propose to use the Net Proceeds for funding the working capital requirements of our Company, and General corporate purposes. For details, see “Objects of the Issue” on page 139. The proposed deployment of Net Proceeds has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution or other independent agency and is based on internal management estimates based on current business plan, prevailing market conditions and historic expenditure levels. Our funding requirements may vary due to several factors, including changes in macro-economic, industry dynamics or other unforeseen developments. Given the dynamic nature of the industry in which we operate, we may have to revise our business plan from time to time and, consequently, the utilization of the Net Proceeds and the funding requirements may also change. In addition to this, the estimates of the management may be inaccurate, and we may require addition-al funds to implement the Objects of the Issue. Any delay, cost overrun or change in the utilization of proceeds may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
53. Any variation in the utilisation of proceeds from the Issue shall be subject to applicable law.
The funding requirements and the deployment of the proceeds from the Issue are based on the current business plan, current conditions, internal management estimates and strategy of our Company, which may be subject to changes. Various risks and uncertainties, such as economic trends and business requirements, competitive landscape, as well as general factors affecting our results of operations, financial condition and access to capital, may limit or delay our efforts to use the Net Proceeds to achieve profitable growth in our business. Thus, the utilization of Net Proceeds for the purposes identified by our management may not result in actual growth of our business, increased profitability or an increase in the value of our business and your investment.
82Further, in accordance with Sections 13(8) and 27 of the Companies Act 2013, as amended, we cannot undertake any variation in the utilization of the Net Proceeds without obtaining the shareholders’ approval through a special resolution. In the event of any such circumstances that require us to undertake variation in the disclosed utilization of Net Proceeds, we may not be able to obtain the shareholders’ approval in a timely manner, or at all. Any delay or inability in obtaining such shareholders’ approval may adversely affect our business or operations. However, we will have flexibility in utilizing the balance Net Proceeds, if any, for general corporate purposes, subject to such utilization not exceeding 25% of the Gross Proceeds from the Fresh Issue in accordance with Regulation 7(2) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations.
Additionally, our Promoters would be required to provide an exit opportunity to Shareholders who do not agree with our proposal to change the Object of the Issue or vary the terms of such contracts, at a price and manner as prescribed by applicable SEBI regulations. Additionally, the requirement on the Promoters to provide an exit opportunity to such dissenting shareholders may deter the Promoters from agreeing to the variation of the proposed utilization of the Net Proceeds, even if such variation is in the interest of our Company. Further, we cannot assure you that the Promoters of our Company will always have adequate resources at their disposal to enable them to provide an exit opportunity at the price prescribed by SEBI. In light of these factors, we may not be able to undertake variation of Objects of the Issue to use any unutilized proceeds of the Issue, if any, or vary the terms of any contract referred to in this Prospectus, even if such variation is in the interest of our Company. This may restrict our Company’s ability to respond to any change in our business or financial condition by re-deploying the unutilized portion of Net Proceeds, if any, or varying the terms of contract, which may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
As a consequence of any increased expenditure, the actual deployment of funds may be higher than estimated. There is no assurance that the deployment of Net Proceeds in the manner intended by us will result in an increase in the value of your investment.
54. This Prospectus includes certain Non-GAAP Measures, financial and operational performance indicators and other industry measures related to our operations and financial performance. The Non-GAAP Measures and industry measures may vary from any standard methodology that is applicable across the industry and, therefore, may not be comparable with financial or industry related statistical information of similar nomenclature computed and presented by other companies.
Certain Non-GAAP Measures and certain other industry measures such as EBIDTA, EBIDTA Margin, Debt-Equity Ratio, ROCE, among others relating to our operations and financial performance have been included in this Prospectus. We compute and disclose such Non-GAAP Measures, financial and operational performance indicators and other industry related statistical information relating to our operations and financial performance as we consider such information to be useful measures of our business and financial performance and because such measures are frequently used to evaluate the operational performance of entities in the Indian jewellery industry, many of which provide such Non- GAAP Measures, financial and operational performance indicators and other industry related statistical information.
These Non-GAAP Measures, financial and operational performance indicators and other industry related statistical information relating to our operations and financial performance may not necessarily be defined under, or presented in accordance with, Ind AS and may not have been derived from the Restated Consolidated Financial Information. These Non-GAAP Measures, financial and operational performance indicators and other industry related statistical information may not be computed on the basis of any standard methodology that is applicable across the industry and therefore may not be comparable to financial measures and industry related statistical information of similar nomenclature that may be computed and presented by other companies in India and other jurisdictions. Such supplemental financial and operational information is therefore of limited utility as an analytical tool and should not be viewed as substitutes for performance or profitability measures under Ind AS or as indicators of our operating performance, financial condition, cash flows, liquidity or profitability.
Investors are cautioned against considering such information either in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis, of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
83Further, we track certain financial and operational performance indicators, including EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, PAT, PAT Margin, Return on Capital Employed, Net Profit after tax, Net Profit Margin, Net Working Capital Days, Inventory Days, amongst other (collectively, the “Key Performance Indicators” or “KPI”). The KPIs are supplemental measures of our operations and financial performance and are not required by, or presented in accordance with, Ind AS, Indian GAAP, IFRS or U.S. GAAP and are prepared with internal systems and tools that are not independently verified by any third party and which may differ from estimates or similar metrics published by third parties due to differences in sources, methodologies, or the assumptions on which we rely. Our internal systems and tools have a number of limitations and our methodologies for tracking these metrics may change over time, which could result in unexpected changes to our metrics, including the metrics we publicly disclose. If the internal systems and tools we use to track these metrics under count or over count performance or contain algorithmic or other technical errors, the data we report may not be accurate.
While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable estimates of our measures for the applicable period of measurement, there are inherent challenges in measuring how our business operates. Limitations or errors with respect to how we measure data or with respect to the data that we measure may affect our understanding of certain details of our business, which could affect our long- term strategies.
Further, there can be no assurance that our KPIs will be higher than our comparable listed industry peers in the future. An inability to improve, maintain or compete, or any reduction in such KPIs in comparison with the listed comparable industry peers may adversely affect the market price of the Equity Shares. Also see, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” on page 408.
55. If we are unable to establish and maintain an effective internal controls and compliance system, our business and reputation could be adversely affected.
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control measures commensurate with the size and complexity of operations. Our internal audit functions make an evaluation of the adequacy and effectiveness of internal systems on an ongoing basis so that our operations adhere to our policies, compliance requirements and internal guidelines. We periodically test and update our internal processes and systems and there have been no instances of failure to maintain effective internal controls and compliance system during the last three Fiscals. However, we are exposed to operational risks arising from the potential inadequacy or failure of internal processes or systems and our actions may not be sufficient to ensure effective internal checks and balances in all circumstances. We take reasonable steps to maintain appropriate procedures for compliance and disclosure and to maintain effective internal controls over our financial reporting so that we produce reliable financial reports and prevent financial fraud. As risks evolve and develop, internal controls must be reviewed on an ongoing basis. Maintaining such internal controls requires human diligence and compliance and is therefore subject to lapses in judgment and failures that result from human error. Any lapses in judgment or failures that result from human error can affect the accuracy of our financial reporting, resulting in a loss of investor confidence and a decline in the price of our equity shares.
56. Any future bonus issuances of Equity Shares are dependent upon adequate availability of reserves.
Lack of adequate reserves may restrict our ability to enhance liquidity of Equity Shares.
While we have in the past undertaken bonus issuances, our ability to adequately reward our shareholders is dependent upon availability of adequate reserves in our account. Set forth below are details in relation to our reserves for the periods indicated below.
(₹ in million) Particulars Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Free Reserves 408.69 201.11 42.82 *As per restated standalone financial information During Fiscal 2026, we have utilized certain free reserve for the issuance of bonus shares. For detail see “Capital Structure - Issue of shares for consideration other than cash or out of revaluation of reserves or by way of Bonus” on page 126.
Our inability to make such bonus issuances could also restrict our ability to enhance liquidity of the 84Equity Shares and adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares.
57. The requirements of being a publicly listed company may strain our resources.
We are not currently a publicly listed company and have not historically been subject to the heightened scrutiny from shareholders, regulators and the public that accompanies being a listed entity. Following the listing of our Equity Shares, we will incur significant legal, accounting, corporate governance and other compliance costs that we have not previously incurred as an unlisted company. We will also become subject to the SEBI Listing Regulations, which, among other requirements, will obligate us to file audited annual financial statements and unaudited quarterly results. Any delay in preparing or filing such reports may result in non-compliance with our reporting obligations and we may face challenges in promptly identifying and reporting changes in our results of operations in the manner expected of listed companies.
As a listed company, we will be required to maintain and enhance the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting, including maintaining adequate records of our daily transactions. Ensuring ongoing compliance will require significant resources, investment in systems and processes and increased management attention. This may divert management’s focus from our business operations and may adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Further, we may need to recruit additional personnel with expertise in legal, accounting and financial reporting matters to support our enhanced compliance obligations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to hire such personnel in a timely or cost-effective manner, or at all, which may impact our ability to meet the requirements applicable to listed companies.
58. The average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares acquired by our Promoters may be less than the Issue Price.
The average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares acquired by our Promoters, may be less than the Issue Price. Such differences between the Issue Price and the acquisition cost of Equity Shares by our Promoters may be perceived by investors as indicative of a disparity in entry pricing, which could influence investment decisions and the market perception of the Issue.
EXTERNAL RISKS
59. Adverse macroeconomic conditions in India and globally could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our performance and the growth of our business are necessarily dependent on the health of the overall Indian economy. Therefore, any slowdown in the Indian economy would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. An increase in India’s trade deficit, a downgrading in India’s sovereign debt rating or a decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves could negatively affect interest rates and liquidity, which could adversely affect the Indian economy and affect our ability to raise overseas financing, the interest rates and other commercial terms at which such additional financing is available.
The Indian economy is also influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries, particularly emerging market conditions in Asia. Further, financial turmoil in United States, United Kingdom, China and elsewhere in the world in recent years has adversely affected and may continue to affect, the Indian economy. A loss of investor confidence in other emerging market economies or any worldwide financial instability may adversely affect the Indian economy. Further, geopolitical developments in other regions of the world including; (i) ongoing conflict between United States, Israel and Iran as well as broader regional tensions in the Middle East; (ii) the conflict between Ukraine and Russia; (iii) Israel-Palestine conflict may adversely affect global economic stability, commodity prices and consumer demand patterns, which in turn could have indirect negative impacts on our business and financial performance .
Our business is exposed to international trade policies, geopolitical tensions and the imposition of 85tariffs, export controls or economic sanctions, which are inherently unpredictable and beyond our control. In particular, geopolitical tensions, trade disputes, diplomatic conflicts and economic sanctions may lead to restrictions on our product sales and raw material procurement in certain countries, limiting our access to key markets. For instance, markets. While recent trade negotiations and policy adjustments have led to partial easing or recalibration of certain tariff measures, there can be no assurance that such arrangements will remain stable or that further protectionist measures will not be introduced. Any re-escalation of trade restrictions, changes in tariff structures, or shifts in bilateral trade agreements could adversely affect global economic conditions and, consequently, the Indian economy.
Further, other factors which may adversely affect the Indian economy are scarcity of credit or other financing in India; volatility in and actual or perceived trends in trading activity on, India’s principal stock exchanges; changes in India’s tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies including market perceptions regarding the impact of elections on such policies; political instability, terrorism or military conflict in India or in countries in the region or globally; the occurrence of natural or man-made disasters;
prevailing regional or global economic conditions, including in India’s principal export markets; and other regulatory or economic developments in or affecting India.
60. Any adverse change in India’s sovereign credit rating by an international rating agency could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Our borrowing costs and our access to the international debt financing depend on India’s sovereign ratings. India’s sovereign debt rating could be downgraded due to various factors, including changes in tax or fiscal policy or a decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves, which are outside our Company’s control. Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings by international rating agencies may adversely affect our ratings, terms on which we are able to raise additional finances or refinance any existing indebtedness. This could have an adverse effect on our business growth and financial performance, ability to obtain financing and the price of the Equity Shares.
61. 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 implemented a major reform in Indian tax laws, namely the GST. The indirect tax regime in India has undergone a complete overhaul. The indirect taxes on goods and services, such as central excise duty, service tax, central sales tax, state value added tax, surcharge and excise have been replaced by GST, with effect from July 1, 2017. The GST regime continues to be subject to amendments and its interpretation by the relevant regulatory authorities is constantly evolving. We cannot assure you that the relevant regulatory authorities will not make any material tax demands under GST on us in the future which could adversely impact our business, results of operations financial condition, cash flows and the price of the Equity Shares. Earlier, distribution of dividends by a domestic company was subject to Dividend Distribution Tax (“DDT”), in the hands of the company.
However, the Government in the past had amended the Income Tax Act, 1961 (“Income Tax Act”) to abolish the DDT regime. Accordingly, any dividend distribution by a domestic company is subject to tax in the hands of the investor at the applicable rate. Additionally, the domestic company is required to withhold tax on such dividends distributed at the applicable rate. However, nonresident shareholders may claim benefit of an applicable tax treaty, read with the Multilateral Convention to Implement Tax Treaty Related Measures to Prevent Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (Multilateral Instrument), if and to the extent applicable, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. We may or may not grant the benefit of a tax treaty (where applicable) to a non-resident shareholder for the purposes of withholding tax pursuant to any corporate action including dividends.
Additionally, the Government of India has enacted the Income-tax Act, 2025, which seeks to rationalize, consolidate and modernize the direct tax framework, replacing and restructuring various provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. As the provisions of the new legislation are interpreted and 86implemented over time, uncertainties may arise in relation to their scope, applicability and transitional arrangements. Any adverse interpretation, increased tax liability or additional compliance burden arising from such changes could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors and to carefully consider the potential tax consequences of owning, investing or trading in our Equity Shares. Uncertainty in the applicability, interpretation or implementation of any amendment to, or change in, governing law, regulation or policy, including 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.
Additionally, the Government of India has introduced (a) the Code on Wages, 2019; (b) the Code on Social Security, 2020 (“Social Security Code”); (c) the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020; and (d) the Industrial Relations Code, 2020 (collectively, the “Labour Codes”) which consolidate, subsume and replace numerous existing central labour legislations. We have not yet fully assessed the impact that these or similar laws might have on our business operations, which could potentially limit our ability to expand in the future. For instance, the Social Security Code standardizes social security benefits for employees, which were previously divided under various acts with differing scopes and coverage. Additionally, the Wages Code restricts the portion of wages that can be excluded from calculations for employment benefits (such as gratuity and maternity benefits) to a maximum of 50% of the total wages paid to employees. The Labor Codes have come into force from November 21,
2025.
The Parliament of India has passed the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita Bill, 2023, the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita Bill, 2023 and the Bharatiya Sakshya Bill, pursuant to which Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, have replaced the Indian Penal Code, 1860, the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, respectively, with effect from July 1, 2024. The effect of the provisions of these on us and the litigations involving us cannot be predicted with certainty at this stage.
62. If inflation rises in India, increased costs could result in a decline in profits.
Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years and such volatility may continue. India has experienced high inflation relative to developed countries in the recent past. In recent months, consumer and wholesale prices in India have exhibited increased inflationary trends, as the result of crude oil prices, international commodity prices and domestic consumer and supplier prices. While the RBI has enacted certain policy measures designed to curb inflation, these policies may not be successful.
Continued high rates of inflation may increase our expenses related to salaries or wages payable to our employees and other expenses.
Any increase in inflation in India can increase our expenses, which we may not be able to adequately pass on to our customers, whether entirely or in part and may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In particular, we might not be able to control the increase in our expenses related to salaries or wages payable to our employees or increase the price of our products to pass the increase in costs on to our customers. In such case, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
63. Differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as Indian GAAP, IFRS and U.S. GAAP, which may be material to investors’ assessment of our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Companies Act, the SEBI ICDR Regulations, as amended and the Guidance Note on Reports in Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019) issued by the ICAI, as amended from time to time. For further details, see “Restated Consolidated Financial Information” on page 281. The degree to which the financial information included in this Prospectus 87provide meaningful information may be dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Ind AS. Ind AS differs in certain respects from other accounting principles and standards with which investors may be more familiar with, such as Indian GAAP, IFRS and U.S. GAAP.
We have not made any attempt to explain those differences or quantify their impact on the financial information included in this Prospectus, nor do we provide a reconciliation of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information to any other accounting principles or standards. If we were to prepare the Restated Consolidated Financial Information in accordance with such other accounting principles, our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows may be substantially different. We have not attempted to quantify the impact of Indian GAAP, US GAAP or IFRS on the financial data included in this Prospectus, nor do we provide a reconciliation of our financial statements to those of Indian GAAP, US GAAP or IFRS. Accordingly, the degree to which the financial statements included in this Prospectus will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Ind AS. Persons not familiar with Ind AS should limit their reliance on the financial disclosures presented in this Prospectus.
64. We may be affected by competition laws, the adverse application or interpretation of which could adversely affect our business.
The Competition Act, 2002, as amended (the “Competition Act”) prohibits any anti-competitive agreement or arrangement, understanding or action in concert between enterprises, whether formal or informal, which causes or is likely to cause an appreciable adverse effect on competition in India. Any agreement among competitors which directly or indirectly involves the determination of purchase or sale prices, limits or controls production, supply, markets, technical development, investment or provision of services, shares the market or source of production or provision of services in any manner by way of allocation of geographical area, type of goods or services or number of consumers in the relevant market or in any other similar way or directly or indirectly results in bid-rigging or collusive bidding is presumed to have an appreciable adverse effect on competition.
The Competition Act also prohibits abuse of a dominant position by any enterprise. The combination regulation (merger control) provisions under the Competition Act require acquisitions of shares, voting rights, assets or control or mergers or amalgamations that cross the prescribed asset and turnover based thresholds to be mandatorily notified to and pre-approved by, the Competition Commission of India (“CCI”). The Competition Act was amended in April 2023 and the amendment strengthens the merger control by providing for faster timelines for merger approvals and strengthens the punishment for violations. Any breach of the provisions of Competition Act, may attract substantial monetary penalties.
The Competition Act aims to, among other things, prohibit all agreements and transactions, which may have an appreciable adverse effect in India. Consequently, all agreements entered into by us could be within the purview of the Competition Act. Further, the CCI has extra-territorial powers and can investigate any agreements, abusive conduct or combination occurring outside of India if such agreement, conduct or combination has an appreciable adverse effect in India. We are not currently party to any outstanding proceedings, nor have we ever received any notice in relation to non- compliance with the Competition Act. The applicability or interpretation of the Competition Act to any merger, amalgamation or acquisition proposed by us, or any enforcement proceedings initiated by the CCI in future, or any adverse publicity that may be generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
65. Investors may have difficulty enforcing foreign judgments against our Company or our management.
Our Company is incorporated under the laws of India as a public company limited by shares and all our Directors are based in India. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process upon our Company or such persons in jurisdictions outside India, or to enforce judgments obtained against such parties outside India. Furthermore, it is unlikely that an Indian court would enforce foreign judgments if that court was of the view that the amount of damages awarded was excessive or inconsistent with public policy, or if judgments are in breach or contrary to Indian law. In addition, a party seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in India is required to obtain approval from the RBI to 88execute such a judgment or to repatriate outside India any amounts recovered.
Recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments is provided for under Section 13 and Section 44A of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (“CPC”). India has reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters with certain countries including the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates, Singapore and Hong Kong. In order to be enforceable, a judgment from a jurisdiction with reciprocity must meet certain requirements established in the CPC. The CPC only permits the enforcement and execution of monetary decrees in the reciprocating jurisdiction, not being in the nature of any amounts payable in respect of taxes, other charges, fines or penalties. Judgments or decrees from jurisdictions which do not have reciprocal recognition with India, cannot be enforced by proceedings in execution in India. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any court in a non-reciprocating territory for civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the general laws of the non-reciprocating territory, would not be directly enforceable in India. The party in whose favour a final foreign judgment in a non-reciprocating territory is rendered may bring a fresh suit in a competent court in India based on the final judgment within three years of obtaining such final judgment. However, it is unlikely that a court in India would award damages on the same basis as a foreign court if an action were brought in India or that an Indian court would enforce foreign judgments if it viewed the amount of damages as excessive or inconsistent with the public policy in India.
66. A third party could be prevented from acquiring control of our Company because of anti-takeover provisions under Indian law.
Certain provisions in Indian law may delay, deter or prevent a future takeover or change in control of our Company, even if a change in control would result in the purchase of your Equity Shares at a premium to the market price or would otherwise be beneficial to you. Such provisions may discourage or prevent certain types of transactions involving actual or threatened change in control of our Company. Under the SEBI Takeover Regulations, an acquirer has been defined as any person who, directly or indirectly, acquires or agrees to acquire shares or voting rights or control over a company, whether individually or acting in concert with others. Although these provisions have been formulated to ensure that the interests of investors/shareholders are protected, these provisions may also discourage a third party from attempting to take control of our Company. Consequently, even if a potential takeover of our Company would result in the purchase of our Equity Shares at a premium to their market price or would otherwise be beneficial to its stakeholders, it is possible that such a takeover would not be attempted or consummated because of the SEBI Takeover Regulations.
67. The determination of the Price Band is based on various factors and assumptions and the Issue Price may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares after the Issue. Further, the current market price of some securities listed pursuant to certain previous issues managed by the Book Running Lead Manager is below their respective issue/ Issue prices. You may be unable to resell the Equity Shares you purchase in the Issue at or above the Issue Price or at all.
The determination of the Price Band is based on various factors and assumptions and will be determined by our Company in consultation with the Book Running Lead Manager through the Book Building Process. The Price Band will be based on various factors, including factors described in “Basis for Issue Price” on page 150 and the Price Band and the Issue Price may not be indicative of the market price for the Equity Shares after the Issue. The market price of the Equity Shares may fluctuate as a result of, among other things, the following factors:
• quarterly variations in our results of operations; • results of operations that vary from those of our competitors; • changes in expectations as to our future financial performance, including financial estimates by research analysts and investors;
• changes in research analysts’ recommendations; • announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, strategic alliances, joint operations or capital commitments; • announcements by third-parties or governmental entities of claims or proceedings against us;
• new laws and governmental regulations applicable to our industry; • additions or departures of Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and Senior Management; • a downgrade in the Government’s credit rating;
89• changes in exchange rates; • fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes; and • general economic and stock market conditions.
In addition to the above, the current market price of securities listed pursuant to certain previous initial public offerings managed by the Book Running Lead Manager is below their respective issue/ offer price. For further details, see “Other Regulatory and Statutory Disclosures—Price information of past issues handled by the Book Running Lead Manager” beginning on page 457.
You may be unable to resell the Equity Shares you purchase in the Issue at or above the Issue Price or at all.
68. Investors may be subject to Indian taxes and duties arising out of capital gains on the sale of the Equity Shares.
Capital gains arising from the sale of our Equity Shares are generally taxable in India. Any gain realized on the sale of our Equity Shares on a stock exchange held for more than 12 months is subject to long term capital gains tax in India. Such long-term capital gains exceeding ₹125,000.00 arising from the sale of listed equity shares on a stock exchange are subject to tax at the rate of 12.50% (plus applicable surcharge and cess). A securities transaction tax (“STT”) will be levied on and collected by an Indian stock exchange on which our Equity Shares are sold. Any gain realized on the sale of our Equity Shares held for more than 12 months by an Indian resident, which are sold other than on a recognized stock exchange and as a result of which no STT has been paid, will be subject to long-term capital gains tax in India. Further, any gain realized on the sale of our Equity Shares held for a period of 12 months or less will be subject to short-term capital gains tax in India. Further, any gain realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less which are sold other than on a recognized stock exchange and on which no STT has been paid, will be subject to short-term capital gains tax at a higher rate compared to the transaction where STT has been paid in India. Capital gains arising from the sale of our Equity Shares will be exempt from taxation in India in cases where an exemption is
provided under a treaty between India and the country of which the seller is a resident.
As a result, subject to any relief available under an applicable tax treaty or under the laws of their own jurisdictions, residents of other countries may be liable for tax in India as well as in their own jurisdictions on gains arising from a sale of our Equity Shares. The Finance Act, 2019 amended the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 with effect from July 1, 2020 and clarified that, in the absence of a specific provision under an agreement, the liability to pay stamp duty in case of sale of securities through stock exchanges will be on the buyer, while in other cases of transfer for consideration through a depository, the onus will be on the transferor. The stamp duty for transfer of securities other than debentures on a delivery basis is specified at 0.015% and on a non-delivery basis is specified at 0.003% of the consideration amount. The Finance Act, 2020, has, amended the tax regime, including a simplified alternate direct tax regime and that dividend distribution tax will not be payable in respect of dividends declared, distributed or paid by a domestic company after March 31, 2020 and accordingly, that such dividends are not exempt in the hands of the shareholders and that such dividends are likely to be subject to tax deduction at source.
Additionally, the Government of India announced the Union Budget for the Fiscal 2027 on February 1,
2026. Following this, the Finance Bill 2026 was introduced, which proposes to introduce certain changes including in respect of reduction of rate of minimum alternate tax, shifting from old to new regime for minimum alternate tax, reduction of rates of tax collected at source and taxation of consideration received on buy-back of shares as capital gains We are yet to determine the impact of all or some such laws on our business and operations, which may restrict our ability to grow our business in the future.
Investors should consult their own tax advisors about the consequences of investing or trading in Equity Shares. Any dividends paid by an Indian company will be subject to tax in the hands of the shareholders at applicable rates. Such taxes will be withheld by the Indian company paying dividends.
Unfavourable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations including foreign investment and stamp duty laws governing our business and operations 90could result in us being deemed to be in contravention of such laws and may require us to apply for additional approvals. Further, we cannot predict whether any tax laws or other regulations impacting it will be enacted or predict the nature and impact of any such laws or regulations or whether, if at all, any laws or regulations may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
69. QIBs and Non-Institutional Investors are not permitted to withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms of quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid and Retail Individual Bidders are not permitted to withdraw their Bids after Bid/ Issue Closing Date.
Pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Regulations, QIBs and Non-Institutional Investors are required to pay the Bid Amount on submission of the Bid and are not permitted to withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms of quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid. Retail Individual Bidders can revise their Bids during the Bid/ Issue Period and withdraw their Bids until Bid/ Issue Closing Date. While our Company is required to complete all necessary formalities for listing and commencement of trading of the Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges within three Working Days from the Bid/ Issue Closing Date, events affecting the Bidders’ decision to invest in the Equity Shares, including material adverse changes in international or national monetary policy, financial, political or economic conditions, our business, results of operations or financial condition may arise between the date of submission of the Bid and Allotment. Our Company may complete the Allotment of the Equity Shares even if such events occur and such events limit the Bidders’ ability to sell the Equity Shares Allotted pursuant to the Issue or cause the trading price of the Equity Shares to decline on listing.
70. Any future issuance of Equity Shares or convertible securities or any other equity linked instruments may dilute your shareholding and adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares and sales of the Equity Shares by our Promoter Group and other major Shareholders may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.
We may be required to finance our growth, whether organic or inorganic, through future equity offerings. Any future equity issuances by us, including a primary offering of Equity Shares, convertible securities or securities linked to Equity Shares, may lead to the dilution of an investor’s shareholdings in us. Any future issuances of Equity Shares or the disposal of Equity Shares by our Promoter Group and other major Shareholders or the perception that such issuance or sales may occur, including to comply with the minimum public shareholding norms applicable to listed companies in India, may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares, which may lead to other adverse consequences, including difficulty in raising capital through offering of the Equity Shares or incurring additional debt.
We cannot assure you that we will not issue further Equity Shares or that our Promoter Group or other major Shareholders will not dispose of Equity Shares after the completion of the Issue (subject to compliance with the lock-in provisions under the SEBI ICDR Regulations) or pledge or encumber their Equity Shares.
71. Fluctuation in the exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and foreign currencies may have an adverse effect on 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 Exchanges. 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 Indian Rupee and the U.S. dollar has fluctuated substantially in recent years and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future, which may have an adverse effect on the trading price of our Equity Shares and returns on our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.
72. Upon listing of the Equity Shares, our Company may be subject to pre-emptive surveillance measures by the Stock Exchanges, such as additional surveillance measures (ASM) and graded surveillance measures (GSM), which are implemented in order to enhance market integrity and safeguard the 91interests of investors, which may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.
The SEBI and the Stock Exchanges have implemented surveillance measures in order to enhance market integrity and safeguard the interests of investors, such as “additional surveillance measures” (“ASM”) and “graded surveillance measures” (“GSM”), which are applicable to securities based on certain criteria notified by the Stock Exchanges. The criteria for placing a security under the GSM framework include a failure of the listed entity to maintain a specified net worth, net fixed assets, market capitalization, price-to-earnings ratio, etc. Generally, securities that exhibit price or volume variation and volatility in trading are placed under the ASM framework. The market price of the Equity Shares may fluctuate after listing due to, among others, broad market trends, financial performance and results of our Company post-listing and other factors beyond our control, which could lead to the Equity Shares and our Company being placed under the ASM or GSM frameworks. The surveillance actions applicable to such securities which have been placed under the ASM or GSM frameworks include monitoring of price and volume movements, shifting to the trade-to-trade segment of the Stock Exchanges, restrictions on intraday leverage and pledging of such securities and limits on the trading frequency of such securities. If our Company is placed under the ASM or GSM framework by the Stock Exchanges, trading in the Equity Shares may be adversely affected. There can be no assurance that investors will be able to sell their Equity Shares in such a scenario at or above the Issue Price or at all, resulting in a loss of all or part of their investment.
73. Investors will not be able to sell immediately on an Indian stock exchange any of the Equity Shares they purchase in the Issue.
In accordance with Indian law and practice, final approval for listing and trading of the Equity Shares will not be granted until after certain actions have been completed in relation to this Issue and until our Equity Shares have been issued and allotted. Such approval will require the submission of all other relevant documents authorizing the Offering of the Equity Shares. In accordance with current regulations and circulars issued by SEBI, the Equity Shares are required to be listed on the Stock Exchanges within a prescribed time. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that the trading in the Equity Shares will commence in a timely manner or at all and there could be a failure or delay in listing and trading of the Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges, which would adversely affect your ability to sell the Equity Shares.
74. The Issue Price of our Equity Shares, our enterprise value to EBITDA ratio and our market capitalization to total revenue ratio may not be indicative of the trading price of our Equity Shares upon listing on the Stock Exchanges subsequent to the Issue and as a result, you may lose a significant part or all of your investment.
While our market capitalization is subject to the determination of the Issue Price, which will be determined by our Company, in consultation with the Book Running Lead Manager, through the book building process, our enterprise value to EBITDA ratio and market capitalization to total Revenue from Operations ratio for the Fiscal 2026 and Fiscal 2025 is set out below;
Particulars Fiscal Fiscal Fiscal Fiscal 2026 2026 2026 2026 (₹70) (₹75) (₹70) (₹75) Enterprise Value to EBITDA Ratio 13.76 14.69 31.82 34.05 Market Capitalization to revenue from
1.99 2.13 4.16 4.46 operations ratio ^Market capitalization has been computed on the basis of the post-Issue equity share capital at the lower end (₹70) and the higher end (₹75) of the Price Band. Enterprise value = market capitalization + total borrowings(included lease liabilities) − cash and cash equivalents(including bank balances), as per the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
Accordingly, the Issue Price, multiples and ratio may not be indicative of the market price of the Equity Shares on listing or thereafter. The factors that could affect the market price of the Equity Shares include, among other, broad market trends, our financial performance and results post-listing and other factors beyond our Company’s control. We cannot assure you that an active market will develop, or sustained trading will take place in the Equity Shares or provide any assurance regarding the price at 92which the Equity Shares will be traded after listing.
75. Under Indian law, foreign investors are subject to investment restrictions that limit our ability to attract foreign investors, which may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.
Under foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfer of shares between non-residents and residents are freely permitted (subject to certain restrictions), if they comply with the pricing guidelines and reporting requirements specified by the RBI. If the transfer of shares is not in compliance with such pricing guidelines or reporting requirements, then a prior regulatory approval will be required.
Additionally, shareholders who seek to convert Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India into foreign currency and repatriate that foreign currency from India require a no-objection or a tax clearance certificate from the Indian income tax authorities. Further, this conversion is subject to the shares having been held on a repatriation basis and, either the security having been sold in compliance with the pricing guidelines or, the relevant regulatory approval having been obtained for the sale of shares and corresponding remittance of the sale proceeds. We cannot assure you that any required approval from the RBI or any other governmental agency can be obtained with or without any particular terms or conditions.
In addition, pursuant to the Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April 17, 2020, issued by the DPIIT, all investments under the foreign direct investment route by entities of a country which shares land border with India or where the beneficial owner of the Equity Shares is situated in or is a citizen of any such country, can only be made through the Government approval route, as prescribed in the FDI Policy dated October 15, 2020 and the FEMA Rules. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future foreign direct investment in an entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling within the aforesaid restriction/purview, such subsequent change in the beneficial ownership will also require approval of the Government. However, pursuant to amendment on March 10, 2026, investors with non-controlling beneficial ownership of up to 10% from such jurisdictions are permitted under the automatic route, subject to applicable sectoral caps, entry routes, attendant conditions and reporting requirements. For further details, see “Restrictions on Foreign Ownership of Indian Securities” on page 504.
76. Rights of shareholders under Indian laws may be different from laws of other jurisdictions.
Our Articles of Association, composition of our Board, 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 face challenges in asserting their rights as shareholder in an Indian company than as shareholders of an entity in another jurisdiction.
77. Our Equity Shares have never been publicly traded and may experience price and volume fluctuations following the completion of the Issue. Furthermore, our Equity Shares may not result in an active or liquid market and the price of our Equity Shares may be volatile and you may be unable to resell your Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price or at all.
Prior to the Issue, there has been no public market for the Equity Shares and an active trading market on the Stock Exchanges may not develop or be sustained after the Issue. We cannot guarantee that an active trading market will develop or be sustained after the offering. Nor can we predict the prices at which the Equity Shares may trade after the listing.
The Issue Price of our Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price for the Equity Shares after the Issue. If you purchase the Equity Shares in our initial public offering, you may not be able to resell them at or above the Issue Price. We cannot assure you that the Issue Price of the Equity Shares, or the market price following our initial public offering, will equal or exceed prices in privately negotiated transactions of our shares that may have occurred from time to time prior to our initial public offering. The market price of the Equity Shares may decline or fluctuate significantly due to a number of factors, some of which may be beyond our control, including:
• announcements about our earnings that are not in line with analyst expectations;
93• the public’s reaction to our press releases, other public announcements in relation to us or our affiliates and filings with the regulator; • significant liability claims, complaints from our customers, shortages or interruptions in the availability of raw materials, or reports of incidents of tampering of raw materials;
• changes in senior management or key personnel; • macroeconomic conditions in India; • fluctuations of exchange rates; • the operating and stock price performance of comparable companies; • changes in our shareholder base;
• changes in our dividend policy; • issuances, exchanges or sales, or expected issuances, exchanges or sales; • changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles; • changes in the regulatory and legal environment in which we operate; and • market conditions in the construction and development industry and the domestic and worldwide economies as a whole.
Any of these factors may result in large and sudden changes in the volume and trading price of Equity Shares. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, shareholders have often instituted securities class action litigation against that company. If we were involved in a class action suit, it could divert the attention of management, and, if adversely determined, have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The proceeds from the Issue after deducting Issue related expenses are estimated to be ₹ 914.66 million (the “Net proceeds”).
We believe that listing our equity shares on the Stock Exchanges will significantly enhance our corporate image and increase the visibility of our brand. Additionally, it will provide our Company with the benefits associated with being listed, such as improved access to capital markets and increased credibility with stakeholders. The listing will also establish a public trading market for our equity shares, providing liquidity for our investors and potentially broadening our shareholder base.
The main objects and the objects incidental and ancillary to the main objects of our Memorandum of Association enable our Company to undertake our existing business activities and to undertake the activities for which the funds are being raised in the Issue.
The net proceeds of the Issue, i.e. gross proceeds of the Issue less the issue expenses to the extent applicable to the Issue (“Net Proceeds”) are proposed to be utilized for the following object:
1. Funding Working Capital requirements of our Company Net Proceeds
The details of the net proceeds of the Fresh Issue are summarized in the table below: (₹ in million) Particulars Amount Gross Proceeds 1,083.50
Less: Issue related expenses(1) 168.84 Net Proceeds 914.66

1. Funding Working Capital requirements of our Company 700.00
2. General corporate purposes* 214.66 *The amount utilized for general corporate purposes does not exceed 25% of the Gross Proceeds of the Issue.
Proposed schedule of Implementation and Utilization of Net Proceeds We propose to deploy the Net Proceeds for the aforesaid purposes in accordance with the estimated schedule of Implementation and deployment of funds set forth in the table below.
(₹ in million) Sr. Particulars Amount to be funded Amount to be deployed No. from the Net Proceeds from the net proceeds in Fiscal 2027

The above-stated fund requirements, deployment of the funds and the intended use of the Net Proceeds as described in this Prospectus are based on (a) our current business plan and internal management estimates based on current market conditions; and (b) certificate from chartered accountant for certifying the working capital requirements.
However, such fund requirements and deployment of funds have not been appraised by any bank, financial institution or any other independent agency. For further details, see “Risk Factors – The objects of the Issue for which the funds are raised have not been appraised by any bank or financial institutions and are based on management estimates.
Any revision in the estimates may require us to reschedule our expenditure and may have a bearing on our expected revenues and earnings. Further, if there are any delays or cost overruns, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected” on page 82. We may have to revise our funding requirements and deployment on account of a variety of factors such as our financial and market condition, our business and growth strategies, competitive landscape, general factors affecting our results of operations, financial condition and access to capital and other external factors such as changes in the business environment or regulatory climate and interest or exchange rate fluctuations, which may not be within the control of our management. This may entail rescheduling the proposed utilisation of the Net Proceeds and changing the allocation of funds from its planned allocation at the discretion of our management, subject to compliance with applicable law. For details, see “Risk Factors -Any variation in the utilisation of the Net Proceeds would be subject to certain compliance requirements, including prior shareholder’s approval” on page 82.
Moreover, if the actual utilisation towards the Object is lower than the proposed deployment such balance will be used for general corporate purposes to the extent that the total amount to be utilized towards general corporate purposes will not exceed 25% of the gross proceeds from the Fresh Issue in accordance with Regulation 7(2) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations. In case of a shortfall in raising requisite capital from the Net Proceeds or an increase in the total estimated cost of the Object, business considerations may require us to explore a range of options including utilising our internal accruals, general corporate purposes and seeking additional debt from existing and future lender. We believe that such alternate arrangements would be available to fund any such shortfalls. Further, in case of variations in the actual utilization of funds earmarked for the purposes set forth above, increased fund requirements for a particular purpose may be financed by surplus funds, if any, available in respect of the other purposes for which funds are being raised in the Fresh Issue. To the extent our Company is unable to utilise any portion of the Net Proceeds towards the aforementioned objects, per the estimated schedule of deployment specified above, our Company shall deploy the Net Proceeds in subsequent Fiscals towards the aforementioned Objects.
Means of Finance The fund requirements for the Objects above are proposed to be entirely funded from the Net Proceeds and hence, no amount is proposed to be raised through any other means of finance. Accordingly, our Company are in compliance with the requirements prescribed under Paragraph 9(C)(1) of Part A of Schedule VIII and Regulation 7(1)(e) of the SEBI ICDR Regulations which require firm arrangements of finance to be made through verifiable means towards at least 75% of the stated means of finance, excluding the amount to be raised through the Fresh Issue and existing internal accruals. In case of a shortfall in the Net Proceeds or any increase in the actual utilisation of funds earmarked for the Objects, our Company may explore a range of options including utilizing our internal accruals.

For details, see, “Industry Overview” on page 170 Given the nature of our operations, our business is working capital intensive. We are required to procure fine gold and other raw materials upfront for the manufacturing of jewellery, while extending credit to our customers in the ordinary course of business. Further, we are required to maintain adequate levels of inventory, including raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods, to support our manufacturing cycle, ensure timely fulfilment of customer orders and maintain a diverse design portfolio. Our operations also involve participation in exhibitions and active customer engagement, which necessitates maintaining a broad and readily available inventory to enhance customer conversion and order volumes.
Our working capital requirements have increased in line with the growth in our business operations and scale.
As a result of our business model, our trade receivables increased from ₹40.64 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹160.64 million in Fiscal 2026, primarily on account of higher sales volumes and extension of credit to customers in the ordinary course of business. Conversely, trade payables increased moderately from ₹16.71 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹81.65 million in Fiscal 2026. Further, we are required to maintain adequate levels of inventory in order to showcase our products to clients, as offering a wider range of designs typically leads to higher conversion and order realisation. Accordingly, our inventory increased from ₹51.35 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹410.54 million in Fiscal 2026.
To service large, volume-driven customers and drive scale, we intend to augment our marketing and distribution capabilities by deploying dedicated marketing teams and expanding our geographic reach. Given that such customers require a broad design portfolio and sufficient inventory for display, this strategy is expected to enhance order volumes and repeat business, while necessitating higher finished goods inventory levels to support product availability and timely execution.
Going forward, these initiatives are expected to contribute to growth in our business operations, resulting in an increased requirement for working capital. Our inventories are estimated to increase from ₹410.54 million in Fiscal 2026 to ₹728.69 million in Fiscal 2027, while our trade receivables are expected to increase from ₹160.64 million in Fiscal 2026 to ₹446.77 million in Fiscal 2027. The increase in working capital is primarily driven by the anticipated scale-up of operations, higher inventory holding to support product diversity and 141the expected increase in credit extended to customers.
Given these factors, our overall working capital requirement has grown from ₹67.65 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹251.12 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹449.46 million in Fiscal 2026. With projected sales growth, extended receivable cycles, increased inventory needs, higher procurement and quicker payment cycles, our total working capital requirement is estimated to reach ₹1,103.08 million in Fiscal 2027.
Our Company plans to utilize the net proceeds from the issue amounting to ₹700.00 million in Fiscal 2027 towards our working capital requirements. The Company plans to fund the existing and estimated incremental working capital requirement through internal accruals, borrowings from banks and Net Proceeds from Issue.

Justification for “Holding Period” levels
The justifications for the holding levels mentioned in the table above are provided below:
Inventories The Company’s inventory comprises raw materials, including fine gold, alloys and lab-grown diamonds, as well as finished goods.In Fiscal 2024, inventory days were 30 days, which subsequently increased to 57 days in Fiscal 2025 and further slightly increased to 59 days in Fiscal 2026. During this period, revenue 143from operations increased significantly from ₹536.54 million to ₹2,070.50 million, representing a growth of 285.90%.
The increase in inventory days in recent periods is primarily attributable to (i) scale-up of operations, (ii) expansion of product portfolio and design offerings, and (iii) the inherent requirement to maintain adequate levels of finished goods inventory to support business development initiatives.
Going forward, inventory holding levels are expected to be approximately 57 days in Fiscal 2027. The projected days is aligned with the Company’s strategy to cater to large, volume-driven customers and expand its geographic reach. The Company intends to undertake targeted customer engagement initiatives, including personalized visits across multiple cities, which necessitate carrying a wider range and higher quantum of finished goods inventory for display and faster order execution.
The Company operates in a design-led jewellery segment, where maintaining a ready portfolio of designs and finished products is critical for customer acquisition, order conversion and reduced lead times. Accordingly, such inventory levels are commensurate with its growth strategy, business model and industry practices and are necessary to sustain revenue growth and enhance customer servicing capabilities.
Trade receivables Trade receivable days stood at 16 days in Fiscal 2024, subsequently increased to 24 days in Fiscal 2025 and then further slightly reduced to 22 days in Fiscal
2026. The subsequent increase in receivable days in Fiscal 2025 is attributable to expansion of the Company’s customer base, including onboarding of customers with relatively higher negotiated credit terms, in line with industry practices and competitive dynamics.
Trade receivable days are further expected to increase to approximately 31 days in Fiscal 2027. The anticipated increase is aligned with the Company’s strategy to scale operations and strengthen its presence across larger and volume-driven customers, where relatively longer credit periods are customary. Extending competitive credit terms is expected to support customer acquisition, enhance
order volumes and improve customer retention.
Other Current Other current assets days stood at 2 days in Fiscal 2024, 1 day in Fiscal 2025, Assets and 1 day in Fiscal 2026. The other current assets days have remained largely stable over the above periods. It primarily comprise advances to suppliers, prepaid expenses and balances with government authorities.
For Fiscal 2027, other current assets days are expected to remain largely stable at 1 day.
Trade Payables Trade payable days stood at 14 days in Fiscal 2024, 8 days in Fiscal 2025 and 10 days in Fiscal 2026. The decline in payable days is primarily attributable to the nature of the Company’s procurement, particularly with respect to fine gold, which generally requires upfront or advance payments, thereby limiting the availability of supplier credit.
Going forward, trade payable days are expected to be approximately 7 days in Fiscal 2027. The reduction is primarily on account of company’s strategy of settling supplier dues in shorter period in order to avail of cash discounts on its raw material procurement 144Other Current Other current liabilities primarily comprise expenses payable, provisions, Liabilities and statutory dues payable and advances from customers. Other current liabilities Provisions days stood at 7 days in Fiscal 2024, 14 days in Fiscal 2025 and 10 days in Fiscal
2026.
The increase in Fiscal 2025 was primarily attributable to call-in-advance amounting to ₹62.45 million in connection with the issue of equity share capital, which resulted in an increase in other current liabilities. Subsequently, other current liabilities days decreased to 10 days in Fiscal 2026, primarily due to the adjustment of the aforesaid call-in-advance.
For Fiscal 2027, other current liabilities days are expected to be approximately 4 days, which is broadly aligned with the Company’s business requirements and operating profile.

Qualitative Factors
Some of the qualitative factors which form the basis for the Issue Price are:
1. Integrated and scalable business model We operate an integrated business model comprising B2B supply of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery and D2C omnichannel retail operations.

Our B2B segment forms the core of our operations and has demonstrated significant scalability, with revenues increasing from ₹536.55 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹2,028.94 million in Fiscal 2026. This growth has been supported by expansion of our customer base, product portfolio and geographic reach. In addition, our D2C presence supports visibility, enables direct consumer engagement and provides insights into evolving consumer preferences, which in turn strengthens our product development and B2B offerings.
The integration of our B2B and D2C operations allows us to leverage design, manufacturing and distribution synergies, improve inventory turnover and enhance responsiveness to market demand, thereby contributing to improved revenue visibility and operational stability.
2. Expanding customer base and market reach We have demonstrated consistent expansion in our B2B customer base. During the Fiscal 2026, we served 323 customer comprising organized retailers, standalone retailers and wholesalers. This growth has been driven by addition of new customers as well as strengthening relationships with existing customers.
Our expanding customer base enhances revenue visibility, reduces dependence on specific customers and supports geographic diversification of our revenue streams. Further, our presence across 18 states and 2 union territories enables us to cater to a wide and growing market, thereby supporting sustained growth in our operations.
This increasing market reach, coupled with our ability to service customers across regions, supports scalability of our B2B operations and positions us to capitalise on growth opportunities in the organised jewellery segment.
3. Design-Led manufacturing with strong product portfolio and supported by in-house karigars Our operations are supported by an integrated manufacturing facility located in Surat, Gujarat, with an installed capacity of approximately 360 kg per annum, enabling us to undertake end-to-end production of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, from design conceptualisation to final finishing.
150We have developed a diversified and scalable design portfolio of over 32,000 designs as of August 31st, 2026, as compared to approximately 3,000 designs in Fiscal 2023, reflecting our focus on continuous design innovation and responsiveness to evolving consumer preferences. Our portfolio spans multiple product categories, including rings, earrings, necklaces and bracelets, catering to varied customer segments across price points and geographies.
Our in-house design capabilities, supported by CAD/CAM-enabled processes and a team of in-house 122 karigars, enable us to offer both standardised and customised jewellery. This integrated design-to- manufacturing approach allows us to reduce product development cycles, enhance turnaround time, maintain consistency in quality and optimise production efficiency.

view of the external factors which may have influenced the pricing of the Issue: • Integrated B2B and D2C business model:
Our Company designs, manufactures and sells lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery through an integrated model. In B2B, we supply organised retailers, standalone retailers and wholesalers. In D2C, our subsidiary Ayaani operates an online storefront and 10 retail stores across 8 cities. This enables us to capture value across the jewellery value chain and gain direct insight into consumer preferences.
162• Expanding and diversified customer base:
Our B2B customer count increased from 74 in Fiscal 2024 to 108 in Fiscal 2025 and 323 in Fiscal 2026, driven by the addition of new customers and repeat business from existing ones. Our customers are spread across 18 states and 2 union territories in India. We have also served overseas customers in the UAE, Australia, Canada, Taiwan and Kenya.
• Design-led manufacturing with in-house capabilities:
Our manufacturing facility at Surat has an installed capacity of 360 kg per annum. It is supported by CAD/CAM-enabled design and a team of in-house designers and karigars. Our design portfolio has grown from about 3,000 designs in Fiscal 2023 to over 32,000 designs as of August 31, 2026. This enables us to cater to both standardised and customised customer requirements.
• Consistent growth in revenue and profitability:
Our revenue from operations grew at a CAGR of approximately 94.46%, from ₹536.55 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹2,028.94 million in Fiscal 2026. Profit after tax grew from ₹40.24 million to ₹223.15 million over the same period. EBITDA margin improved from 10.21% to 15.27%, reflecting operating leverage as our business scaled.
• Expansion of operational volumes:
The volume of gold processed increased from 42.96 kg in Fiscal 2024 to 98.53 kg in Fiscal 2026. Sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery increased from 66.34 kg to 178.89 kg. Capacity utilisation at our Surat facility rose from 20.14% to 45.21%, indicating headroom for further growth without significant capital expenditure.
• Favourable industry growth outlook:
As per the CareEdge Report, the Indian lab-grown diamond jewellery market is expected to grow from ₹34,501 million in CY25 to ₹71,890 million by CY30, at a CAGR of 15.8%. Lab-grown diamonds are typically 60–80% more affordable than comparable natural diamonds. This is driving adoption among millennial and Gen Z consumers and in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities.
• Supportive ecosystem and policy environment:
Our Company benefits from its presence in Surat, a leading diamond processing hub with an established supply chain and skilled workforce. The Union Budget 2026–27 reduced basic customs duty on cut and polished diamonds from 5% to 2.5%. The RBI projects real GDP growth of 6.60% for Fiscal 2027.
The Issue Price of ₹ 75 per equity share has been determined by our Company, in consultation with the Book Running Lead Manager, on the basis of the demand from investors for the Equity Shares issued through the Book-Building Process.

UDIN: 26138361EBWJMR6573 166ANNEXURE 1 STATEMENT OF POSSIBLE SPECIAL TAX BENEFITS AVAILABLE TO THE NITYAS GEMS AND JEWELLERY LIMITED (“THE COMPANY”) AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES UNDER INDIAN INCOME TAX REGULATIONS UNDER THE INCOME TAX ACT, 1961
(1) Special tax benefits available to the Company:
Lower Corporate Tax rate under Section 115BAB A new Section 115BAB has been inserted by the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act, 2019 ("the Amendment Act, 2019") granting an option to new domestic manufacturing companies incorporated on or after October 1, 2019 and commencing manufacturing activities on or before March 31, 2024, to compute corporate tax at a concessional rate of 17.16% (15% plus surcharge of 10% and cess of 4%) from the Fiscal Year 2019-20, provided such companies do not avail specified exemptions/incentives (e.g. deduction under Section 10AA, 32(1)(iia), 33ABA, 35(2AB), Chapter VI-A other than Section 80JJAA and 80M, etc.). The Amendment Act, 2019 also provides that domestic companies availing such option will not be required to pay Minimum Alternate Tax (“MAT”) under Section 115JB. The CBDT has further issued Circular 29/2019 dated October 02, 2019 clarifying that since the MAT provisions under Section 115JB itself would not apply where a domestic company exercises option of lower tax rate under Section 115BAA, MAT credit would not be available.
The company has exercised the above option in the financial year 2022-23.
(2) Special tax benefits available to the Shareholders There are no special direct tax benefits available to the shareholders for investing in the shares of the Company.
With respect to a Resident Corporate Shareholder, a new section 80M is inserted in the Finance Act, 2020, to remove the cascading effect of taxes on inter-corporate dividends during financial year 2020-21 and thereafter. The section provides that where the gross total income of a domestic company in any previous year includes any income by way of dividends from any other Domestic Company or a Foreign Company or a Business Trust, there shall, in accordance with and subject to the provisions of this section, be allowed in computing the total income of such domestic company, a deduction of an amount equal to so much of the amount of income by way of dividends received from such other Domestic Company or Foreign Company or Business Trust as does not exceed the amount of dividend distributed by it on or before the due date. The “due date” means the date one month prior to the date for furnishing the return of income under sub-section (1) of section 139.
(3) Special tax benefits available to the Subsidiaries Lower Corporate Tax rate under Section 115BAA A new Section 115BAA has been inserted by the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act, 2019 ("the Amendment Act, 2019") granting an option to domestic companies to compute corporate tax at a concessional rate of 25.17% (22% plus surcharge of 10% and cess of 4%) from the Fiscal Year 2019- 20, provided such companies do not avail specified exemptions/incentives (e.g. deduction under Section 10AA, 32(1)(iia), 33ABA, 35(2AB), Chapter VI-A other than Section 80JJAA and 80M, etc.). The Amendment Act, 2019 also provides that domestic companies availing such option will not be required to pay Minimum Alternate Tax (“MAT”) under Section 115JB. The CBDT has further issued Circular 29/2019 dated October 02, 2019 clarifying that since the MAT provisions under Section 115JB itself would not apply where a domestic company exercises option of lower tax rate under Section 115BAA, MAT credit would not be available.

1. Economic Outlook
1.1. Global Economy Global Economic Growth Expected to Sustain at ~3% in Near Term Global economic growth is projected to moderate to around 3.00% in 2026, reflecting the impact of geopolitical tensions in energy and trade flows. The ongoing Middle East conflict poses downside risks, with prolonged disruptions potentially reducing growth further to 2.50%, or lower. However, supportive factors such as continued investment momentum and policy support are helping offset some of these pressures.

1.1.1. El-Nino and Economic Growth The rainfall during the June–September 2026 monsoon season is projected at approximately 90% of the Long Period Average (LPA), indicating a below-normal monsoon. The anticipated emergence of El Niño conditions is expected to contribute to uneven rainfall distribution and deficient precipitation across certain regions, with a high probability of a moderate-to-strong El Niño event during the season.
El Niño could exert upward pressure on food inflation through its impact on agricultural output and perishable commodities. Erratic weather patterns, elevated temperatures, and heatwaves may adversely affect the production of fruits and vegetables, particularly key inflation-sensitive crops such as tomatoes, onions, and potatoes. Pulse production also remains vulnerable to rainfall deficiencies, potentially leading to supply-side pressures and higher prices.
Historically, deficient monsoons have had a direct impact on agricultural output and economic growth.
However, the sensitivity of overall economic activity to rainfall deviations has moderated significantly over time due to structural changes in the economy. Agriculture's contribution to India's Gross Value Added (GVA) has declined from approximately 53% in FY1951 to around 17% in FY2026, reducing the economy's overall dependence on the sector.
States with lower irrigation coverage, higher dependence on rain-fed agriculture, and limited crop diversification are highly vulnerable to rainfall shocks. While the macroeconomic impact of El Niño is expected to remain manageable, its potential implications for agricultural production and food inflation warrant close monitoring. The progress of the monsoon, inflationary trends, and region-specific agricultural stress indicators will remain key factors to watch during the year.
1.1.2. Iran Conflict Impacts Energy Intensive Sectors The geopolitical tensions surrounding Iran conflict in West Asia, are having a direct quantifiable impact on the Indian consumer industry due to its high dependence on energy imports routed through the Strait of Hormuz (presently the zone of conflict). India imports around 60% its LPG demand and nearly 90% of the imports transit through the Strait of Hormuz route. Since LPG is a primary cooking fuel for over 300 million Indian households, any disruption in supply chains, or increase in freight and insurance costs has an immediate effect on household consumption expenditure and urban demand patterns in the country.
This impact is further amplified by India’s crude oil dependence, with over 85% of total crude demand being imported, a large share of which travels from West Asia and eventually moves through the Strait of Hormuz route. A significant share of India’s energy cargo, approximately 40–50% of crude oil imports and most LPG imports is routed through the Strait of Hormuz too, making it a critical chokepoint for 171India’s energy security.
This creates a structural vulnerability, where even moderate disruptions or price shocks translate into higher fuel costs. Since fuel constitutes a key component of logistics, particularly in a distribution-heavy economy like India, rising crude prices increase transportation and supply chain costs across sectors such as FMCG, retail, e-commerce, and consumer durables. This leads to cost transmission across the value chain, affecting both producers’ margins and end-consumer prices.
Additionally, a significant share of India’s natural gas imports is also linked to this route, impacting energy-intensive sectors such as fertilizers, packaging, and manufacturing inputs. These sectors are closely integrated with consumer industries, creating second-order effects through higher input costs and supply-side pressures. As a result, the consumer industry faces broad-based cost escalation, with companies either absorbing margin pressures or passing on selective price increases, potentially moderating demand in price-sensitive segments.
Recent signs of de-escalation in the region have contributed to greater stability in global financial markets and a moderation in crude oil prices. However, shipping activity and trade flows through key routes such as the Strait of Hormuz have not yet fully normalized, and risks related to energy prices, freight costs, and supply chain disruptions persist. Nevertheless, the Indian consumer sector is expected to remain resilient, supported by strong domestic consumption, healthy banking sector fundamentals, adequate foreign exchange reserves, and a stable regulatory environment. These factors are likely to mitigate the impact of external shocks and support sustained consumer demand.
1.2. Indian Economic Outlook
1.2.1. GDP Growth and Outlook Resilience to External Shocks Remains Critical for Near-term Outlook India’s economy continues to show rapid growth. As per Provisional Estimates, GDP in FY26 is expected to have grown by 7.75%, supported by rising rural demand, better job opportunities and favourable business conditions.
For FY25, First Revised Estimates show a growth of 7.10% (Rs 299.89 trillion), led by robust performance in manufacturing, construction and financial services. Consumer spending rose by 7.75%, and government spending increased by 5.5%, both contributing to the overall growth. In FY23, the real GDP stood at Rs 261.18 trillion and registered Y-o-Y growth of 7.21% in FY24 (Rs 280.01 trillion).

However, elevated energy and other commodity prices, cost pressures, as well as the travel disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz are likely to affect the growth this year. However, the government is working towards minimising the impact of the supply chain disruptions towards critical sectors to ensure limited interruptions.

1.2.2. India’s GDP Per Capita India's per capita GDP has shown a consistent upward trend over the past decade, reflecting steady economic growth. Rising per capita income, driven by robust economic development, enhances consumer confidence and discretionary spending, reflecting a higher standard of living and overall prosperity.
From FY23 to FY25 (according to the estimates), the per capita GDP increased from Rs 1,88,862 to Rs 2,25,896. In FY26, the growth is expected to have reached around 7.93% at Rs 2,43,803. Key drivers of this growth include structural reforms, digitalisation, rising domestic consumption and increased foreign investment.

1.2.4. Trends in Per capita State Domestic Product (SDP) SDP is the total value of goods and services produced, during any financial year, within the geographical boundaries of a state. The top performing states on per capita SDP include Delhi, Gujarat, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu, due to their strong industrial and services base, higher urbanisation, better infrastructure and greater investment inflows, leading to higher income generation.
As of FY25, major states having a per capita SDP below national average include Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh growing Y-o-Y by 8.0%, 6.9%, 4.7% and 7.9% respectively. Bihar is the poorest performing state with a per capita SDP of Rs 36,342 in FY25. It has consistently been performing the poorest since FY18, growing merely at a CAGR of 4.5% from FY18 to FY25. Bihar’s poor performance is due to factors such as a high population base, lower levels of industrialisation, infrastructure gaps, lower human capital development and higher dependence on agriculture, which together limit productivity and income growth.

Source: RBI RBI maintained a ‘neutral’ monetary policy stance, even as MPC noted an increase in geopolitical tensions. The growth is expected to be supported by robust private consumption and investment demand.
RBI has adopted for a non-inflationary growth with the foundations of strong demand and supply with a good macroeconomic balance. With volatile trade conditions in view, the domestic growth and inflation curve requires the policies to be supportive.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) expects a below normal monsoon, rains in most parts of the country, except in some areas of the northeast, southern peninsula, and northwest India which is likely to affect inflation levels.
The prices of petrol and diesel have increased marginally as the refineries have been absorbing the shocks by reducing the excise duty, despite high global crude oil prices. However, a further hike in prices remains monitorable due to high company losses. The rise in energy prices and weather disturbances affecting food prices are upside risks to inflation.
1.2.6. Household Savings’ Shifting Focus from Physical Assets to Financial Assets Household savings are of the household sector, measured as its excess of income over consumption and invested in financial assets and physical assets. Household savings in India have grown at an 8.8% CAGR since FY18, reaching Rs 54.61 trillion in FY24, a 9.00% Y-o-Y increase. A shift toward physical assets, particularly housing and gold/silver ornaments, reflects a preference for tangible investments amid high inflation and slow growth in monetary assets. Savings in the form of gold and silver ornaments (% of Household sector savings) was reported at 1.20% in FY24.
This increasing trend towards physical assets is occurring alongside a rise in household leverage, with borrowing, especially for housing, automobiles, and personal consumption, pushing household financial liabilities to a six-year high. Mutual funds and life insurance also grew, with an 11.50% and 13.60% Y- o-Y increase, respectively, while investment in equities and capital market instruments rose as they offer higher returns than bank deposits.

Source: MOSPI Gross Domestic Savings (GDS) are the total savings within the economy, comprising the savings of the household, private corporate and public sectors. GDS as percentage of GDP has seen a flat growth moving within a narrow range. Within the last five years, it was highest in FY19 at 31.7%. It declined to less than 30% during FY20 and FY21 on account of COVID-19 pandemic, increasing again to 31.2% in FY22 before declining to 30.2% in FY23. The trend picked up marginally in FY24 to 30.70%.
As of FY24, Savings were Rs 92.59 trillion indicating a Y-o-Y growth of 12.3% while GDP was at Rs

1771.2.7. Growth of the Middle Class in India and the Rural Economy in India The Indian rural economy is becoming a significant driver of the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector's resurgence, signalling a promising turnaround in aggregate demand after a slow start to the FY24-
25. RBI highlights that rising incomes and improved infrastructure are fuelling increased rural consumption of FMCG products. This boost is supported by a rise in rural savings, marked by growing numbers of savings bank accounts and balances, and a reduction in inflationary pressures, which has allowed rural consumption to catch up with urban areas. Additionally, favourable monsoon conditions and improved sowing data are expected to sustain this growth, complemented by increased government spending on rural development and infrastructure.
The expansion of middle-income households in rural India is transforming the country's economic landscape. This growth is driven by rising incomes, increased discretionary spending, a shift towards online and omnichannel shopping, and advancements in payment and logistics infrastructure. There is also a notable dietary shift in rural areas from carb-based foods to more protein-rich diets. India’s middle class, characterised by significant income variability, exhibits diverse spending patterns. Lower-middle- class households allocate much of their income to private healthcare, education and essential consumer goods such as motorbikes and basic appliances. In contrast, the upper-middle-class invests in luxury items, entertainment, property, and personal services, with a higher propensity to own assets like cars, computers, and air conditioners. Both segments of the middle class are substantial and emerging as key drivers of consumption and economic growth in India. Recent policies, including the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, have increased rural incomes, enabling more rural households to enter the middle class. The growing, more inclusive, and politically engaged middle class reflects broader economic growth, although there is a risk of social strain if growth falters and quality job creation does not keep pace.
The government's budget measures which focus on agriculture, infrastructure and rural development, aim to increase incomes and revitalise the rural sector. These measures include transforming agricultural research, introducing new crop varieties, promoting natural farming and enhancing digital infrastructure for agriculture. Successful implementation of these programs, coupled with proper fund allocation, is crucial for improving farm incomes and strengthening supply chains. A shift towards diversified, high- value agricultural production, along with marketing and trade reforms, is needed to foster more inclusive, environmentally friendly and climate-resilient agriculture Despite higher absolute incomes among the wealthy class, the sheer size of India's middle class indicates it will become a major force in the economy, creating one of the world's largest markets. This burgeoning middle class, with its growing discretionary spending power, is poised to drive investment, generate employment and spur further economic growth. Assuming effective reforms are implemented, and the middle class expands to over one billion people, its role will be pivotal in India's economic and social fabric, influencing a wide range of activities from consumption to employment and political change.
1.2.8. Overview on Key Demographic Parameters • Population Growth and Urbanisation The trajectory of economic growth of India and private consumption is driven by socio-economic factors such as demographics and urbanisation. According to the World Bank, India’s population in CY22 surpassed 1.42 billion, slightly higher than China’s population (1.410 billion) and became the most populous country in the world.
Age Dependency Ratio, ratio of dependents to the working age population, i.e., 15 to 64 years, wherein dependents are population younger than 15 and older than 64 is on decline. Declining dependency means the country has an improving share of working-age population generating income, which is a good sign for the economy. It was as high as 76% in 1983, which has reduced to 47.00% in CY23. However, this ratio is expected to rise again to 54.00% by CY36, driven by an increase in the elderly population as life expectancy improves.

1801.3. Conclusion From a macroeconomic standpoint, India remains one of the most resilient large economies in a challenging global environment. The IMF forecasts GDP growth for India at 6.70% in CY26, far outpacing the estimated CY26 global average of 3.06%. This performance reflects a combination of strong domestic fundamentals, policy stability and a sustained focus on capital formation. While the global economy continues to face uncertainty from geopolitical conflicts, commodity price volatility and rising public debt, India’s diversified growth drivers, stable policy framework and expanding export ecosystem position it well to navigate these headwinds.
The key sectors with potential exposure to changes in US tariff policy include engineering goods, electronics, gems and jewellery, pharmaceuticals, textiles and automobiles/auto components, given their material export linkages to the US market.
As of June 2026, India–US trade negotiations are ongoing, and the final Bilateral Trade Agreement
(BTA) has not yet been concluded. In February 2026, both countries announced a framework for an Interim Agreement aimed at promoting reciprocal and mutually beneficial trade. Under this framework, the United States proposed an 18% reciprocal tariff rate on Indian goods, while also indicating the possible removal of tariffs on sectors such as generic pharmaceuticals, gems and diamonds, aircraft parts and certain engineering products, subject to finalization of the agreement.
India continues to strengthen its position through diversification of trade partnerships and expansion of FTAs with the EU, UK, EFTA and other economies. This, along with India’s growing manufacturing capacity and supply-chain integration, supports its competitiveness in sectors such as electronics, textiles, pharmaceuticals and auto components.
A ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran is expected to be finalized soon; however, a permanent truce between the two remains uncertain. The Iran conflict has led to an increase in prices of consumer products in India due to potential higher fuel, freight and input costs, which can make everyday goods like FMCG items, plastics and packaged foods more expensive. Disruptions in shipping and fertiliser supplies are also pushing up food prices, affecting imports of agricultural inputs and leading to costlier food products for consumers. Overall, delays in trade routes and rising logistics costs are reducing availability and increasing prices of imported consumer goods, especially from Gulf-linked supply chains. Overall, this is leading to supply shortages, rising costs, and production slowdowns in India’s chemical and pharma sectors, with the impact likely to worsen if the conflict continues. Prolonged geopolitical tensions or conflict in the region could lead to sustained increases in crude oil and LPG prices, which may translate into higher input costs across industries and contribute to inflationary pressures in the Indian economy.
Domestically, a below-normal monsoon and potential El Niño conditions may contribute to higher food inflation, which could affect household spending and consumer sentiment, particularly in rural markets.
Elevated prices of essential commodities may reduce discretionary spending; however, strong domestic demand, urban consumption, and rising income levels are expected to support overall growth in the consumer sector.
Policy momentum remains strong. The 56th meeting of the GST Council marked a major structural reform by proposing a simplified two-rate system of 5% and 18%, replacing the earlier four-slab framework, along with a 40% demerit rate for luxury and sin goods. This rationalisation aims to reduce compliance burdens, enhance efficiency, and stimulate private consumption. Together with recent revisions in personal income tax rates, these measures are projected to release savings exceeding Rs 2.5 lakh crore into the economy, supporting demand and easing inflationary pressures.
The Union Budget’s allocation of Rs 12.20 lakh crore for capital expenditure in FY27 further reinforces the government’s commitment to infrastructure-led growth. Public investment is expected to catalyse private sector activity, evidenced by rising project announcements and growing imports of capital goods.
Improving rural demand, supported by healthy monsoon progress, favourable sowing conditions, and adequate reservoir levels, provides additional tailwinds for consumption and investment.

4.2. Expansion of Export Markets in the Middle East India’s Lab-Grown Diamond (LGD) industry, already a global powerhouse in manufacturing, is strategically pivoting to cultivate high-value export markets in the Middle East. This move is driven by several key regional characteristics that align perfectly with the strengths of Indian LGDs, moving beyond traditional exports to the West.
The Middle East, particularly the affluent GCC nations (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait), represents
a compelling opportunity for several reasons:
High Disposable Income and Luxury Appetite: The region has one of the highest per capita spends on luxury goods globally. There is a deeply entrenched culture of gifting and owning high-value jewelry, especially gold and diamonds, for weddings, festivals, and as status symbols.
Alignment with Evolving Consumer Values: While traditional markets value natural stones, a significant and growing segment of the younger, globally-connected Middle Eastern consumer base is increasingly drawn to sustainability, innovation, and modernity core value propositions of LGDs. This trend mirrors the global shift and opens a new avenue beyond the conventional natural diamond narrative.
Gateway Hub (UAE): The UAE, specifically Dubai, acts as a global trading and re-export hub for gold and diamonds. Its state-of-the-art infrastructure, free zones (like the Dubai Diamond Exchange), and business-friendly policies make it an ideal launchpad for Indian exporters to establish a regional presence, manage logistics, and reach a wider audience across the Middle East, Africa, and beyond.
For Indian exporters, the expansion strategy is two-pronged:
B2B Supply to Regional Jewelers: Leveraging existing trade relations, Indian manufacturers can supply certified polished LGDs and semi-finished jewelry to established Middle Eastern jewelry houses and distributors. This allows regional brands to quickly enter the LGD category with ready-made, high- quality inventory.
B2C Market Development via Branding: Forward-looking Indian LGD jewelry brands are beginning to establish a direct retail presence. This involves opening branded boutiques in high-end malls in Dubai or Abu Dhabi and developing a strong online strategy tailored to the region. Success hinges on marketing that emphasizes the scientific excellence, ethical sourcing, and contemporary design of Indian LGD jewelry, positioning it as a modern luxury choice.
In conclusion, the Middle East is not just an alternative export destination but a strategic growth frontier.
By combining India's manufacturing prowess with a deep understanding of the region's luxury dynamics and evolving consumer preferences, the Indian LGD industry can successfully establish itself as a key 188supplier of the modern, conscious luxury that the Middle East's next generation of consumers is beginning to embrace.
4.3. India’s Strength in Value-Added Manufacturing India’s position as a global leader in the Lab-Grown Diamond (LGD) industry is fundamentally anchored in its unparalleled strength in value-added manufacturing. This goes far beyond basic production; it is the nation’s deep-rooted expertise in the high-skill, intricate, and artisanal processes that transform a lab- grown rough stone into a finished gem, capturing a significant portion of the global value chain.
India has been the world's diamond polishing hub for decades, commanding over 90% of the global market in cutting and polishing for natural diamonds. This generational mastery of precision craftsmanship, housed in major centers like Surat and Mumbai, provides an immediate and formidable competitive advantage. The nation possesses a vast, highly skilled workforce of artisans who are expert in the complex craft of maximizing a diamond's yield, brilliance, and fire from a raw crystal. This ecosystem seamlessly translates to LGDs, allowing India to not only grow diamonds but to expertly cut, polish, grade, and certify them to the highest international standards.
This capability in value addition is a powerful strategic moat. While other countries may produce rough LGDs, India's dominance in the midstream—the value-adding stage—makes it an indispensable link in the global supply chain. It allows the country to export higher-value polished diamonds and semi-finished jewelry rather than low-margin rough stones. This integrated control, from growing to finishing, also enables greater supply chain efficiency, quality consistency, and faster turnaround times for global retailers and brands. By owning this critical part of the process, India secures its role not just as a factory, but as the essential craftsman of the global LGD market.

5. Profitability and Working Capital Advantages of LGD Jewellery Business Model (Qualitative)
5.1. Higher Gross Margins The most significant financial advantage is the potential for substantially higher gross margins. In the natural diamond pipeline, a significant portion of the final retail price is locked in upstream—covering mining costs, rough diamond premiums, and the margins of multiple intermediaries (miners, traders, rough dealers). An LGD jeweller, especially one with backward integration or direct partnerships with growers, bypasses much of this. The cost of production for a rough lab-grown diamond is primarily technological (equipment, energy) and is not subject to the geological scarcity premium of mined stones.
This creates a wider gap between the cost of goods sold (COGS) and the final selling price. While LGD 190jewelry is sold at a significant discount to natural diamonds (often 40-70% less), the reduction in COGS is even more pronounced, preserving a healthier margin percentage for the retailer. Reports by consultancies like Bain & Company have highlighted that retailers often achieve better margin structures on LGD sales compared to natural diamonds, as they capture value from a more controlled supply chain.
5.2. Lower Inventory Risk The LGD model inherently carries lower inventory risk and capital lock-in. Natural diamond jewelry retailers must make large, upfront capital commitments to purchase inventory of finished pieces or certified stones, with money tied up for extended periods based on speculative demand. In contrast, the LGD supply chain is more responsive. Key stones for popular designs can be grown to order within weeks, allowing retailers to hold less finished goods stock and more "virtual" inventory in the form of design mock-ups or certified sample stones. Furthermore, the consistent and predictable availability of lab-grown stones (in terms of size, colour, and clarity) eliminates the "one-of-a-kind" scarcity that forces natural diamond buyers to purchase unique stones immediately for fear of losing them. This enables a "just-in-time" or made-to-order approach, drastically reducing the capital required for inventory and the risk of holding slow-moving or obsolete stock.
5.3. Design-led Inventory Flexibility This leads directly to superior design-led inventory flexibility. The ability to source stones of specific sizes and qualities on demand liberates designers and retailers from the constraints of the natural diamond pipeline. A brand can launch a new collection based purely on contemporary design trends and consumer data, confident that the required LGDs can be procured to manufacture the pieces as orders come in. This allows for faster design cycles, more experimentation with styles, and a higher degree of personalisation (e.g., creating a specific size of solitaire for a customer request). The inventory becomes "design potential" rather than fixed physical stock. This agility not only reduces waste and markdowns but also enables brands to be more responsive to fast-changing fashion trends, a key advantage in attracting the younger "daily wear" and "self-purchase" consumer segments driving market growth.
6. Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry
6.1. Overview of the LGD Jewellery Industry in India Lab-Grown Diamonds (LGDs) are real diamonds that are created in laboratories using advanced technological processes that replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form beneath the earth’s surface. Unlike imitation or synthetic stones such as cubic zirconia or moissanite, LGDs have the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as mined diamonds — they are made of pure carbon, have identical crystal structures, and display the same sparkle, hardness, and durability. The two main methods used to create LGDs are Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) and High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT). The CVD process involves placing a diamond seed in a carbon-rich chamber, where carbon atoms deposit layer by layer to form a diamond. In contrast, HPHT replicates the natural geological process by subjecting carbon to high pressure and temperature until it crystallizes into a diamond.
LGD Jewellery refers to ornaments such as rings, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets that are made using lab-grown diamonds instead of naturally mined ones. From a visual and structural standpoint, jewellery made with LGDs is indistinguishable from jewellery made with natural diamonds, even to trained eyes, unless examined with specialized equipment. The key difference lies in their origin — LGDs are man- made in controlled environments, whereas natural diamonds are mined from the earth after millions of years of formation. This difference makes LGD jewellery more sustainable, ethical, and affordable, as its production does not involve mining, which is often associated with environmental damage and ethical concerns related to labor practices.
The appeal of LGD jewellery has grown rapidly in recent years due to several factors. It offers significant cost savings, typically priced 30–50% lower than mined diamonds of comparable size and quality.
Additionally, it aligns with the preferences of younger consumers who value sustainability, transparency, and innovation in luxury purchases. Advances in technology have also improved the quality and 191availability of LGDs, allowing jewellers to design intricate, high-quality pieces for engagement, gifting, and everyday wear.
Overall, Lab-Grown Diamonds and LGD Jewellery represent a technological and cultural shift in the diamond industry — combining the brilliance and authenticity of real diamonds with the benefits of ethical sourcing and affordability. As consumer acceptance rises and awareness spreads, LGDs are increasingly being recognized not as substitutes but as a modern, responsible alternative to traditional mined diamonds, redefining luxury for the new generation.

6.4. Retail Adoption & Omnichannel Expansion
6.4.1. Entry of national & regional chains The entry of large, established national and regional jewellery chains into the Lab-Grown Diamond
(LGD) segment has emerged as one of the most significant drivers of mainstream retail adoption in India.
This shift goes beyond merely introducing a new product line—it acts as a strong legitimizing force that directly addresses key barriers such as consumer trust, fragmented supply, and limited awareness. For the purpose of this analysis, organized retail chains refer to jewellery players operating through more than 3–4 retail stores, typically characterized by standardized operations, branded offerings, transparent pricing, and formalized sourcing and certification practices.
Historically, the Indian diamond jewellery market has been dominated by an unorganized sector and family-run jewellers, where trust is built over generations. As a relatively new and technically complex category, LGDs initially faced skepticism regarding quality, resale value, and emotional symbolism. The 194participation of leading organized players has fundamentally transformed this perception.
National brands such as Tanishq (a division of Titan Company) and prominent regional chains like Malabar Gold & Diamonds and Kalyan Jewellers have accelerated category acceptance through the
following mechanisms:
Credibility and Brand Trust When an established and trusted brand such as Tanishq introduces LGD collections (including its dedicated LGD offerings), it transfers its long-standing reputation for purity, transparency, and quality assurance to the category. This endorsement signals to consumers that LGDs are a legitimate and premium jewellery option rather than a substitute or compromise.
Standardization and Consumer Education Organized retailers bring structured pricing frameworks, standardized certification (e.g., IGI/GIA), and transparent product disclosures. They also invest in in-store training and integrated marketing campaigns to educate consumers about the scientific, ethical, and cost advantages of LGDs. This reduces information asymmetry and builds buyer confidence.
Wider Accessibility Across Geographies With extensive showroom networks spanning Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 cities, these chains have significantly expanded the physical reach of LGD jewellery. Consumers in cities such as Coimbatore, Indore, and other emerging urban centers can now access certified LGD products through reputable retail environments, enhancing both accessibility and aspirational value.
Competitive Intensity and Category Expansion The participation of large chains creates a structured and competitive ecosystem. It encourages pure-play LGD brands to innovate in design, pricing, and customer experience, while also prompting traditional jewellers to consider stocking LGDs to remain relevant. This collective momentum accelerates overall category awareness, retail penetration, and long-term market growth.
At the same time, a key structural feature of the jewellery retail ecosystem is the continued reliance of retailers on B2B suppliers and manufacturers. Retailers more often prefer sourcing from established B2B players as it helps reduce working capital blockage by avoiding large upfront inventory investments. In addition, B2B suppliers often extend purchase credit, improving liquidity and cash flow management for retailers. This model also eliminates the need for maintaining in-house design teams or holding extensive design inventory, as retailers can access a wide and frequently updated product catalogue. Further, outsourcing manufacturing reduces the requirement for managing karigars, production facilities, and associated operational overheads, while also minimizing inventory risk through demand-based procurement. This asset-light sourcing model is particularly relevant in the LGD segment, where design trends evolve rapidly and consumer preferences are more fashion-oriented.
However, the B2B supply chain is characterized by moderate to high entry barriers. The business is largely relationship-driven, with long-standing associations between retailers and trusted suppliers creating high switching costs. New entrants are required to establish credibility in terms of consistent quality, certification standards, and timely delivery. In addition, strong design and manufacturing capabilities, along with the ability to offer a wide and trend-aligned product portfolio, are critical differentiators. The need to maintain inventory and extend credit to retailers also results in high working capital requirements. Further, operational scale and integration across procurement, manufacturing, and distribution are essential to remain competitive in terms of pricing and service levels. These factors collectively restrict new entrants and favor established, integrated players in the B2B segment.
6.4.2. Omnichannel Expansion (Stores + Online + Social Commerce): The New Purchase Journey The purchase journey of India’s Lab-Grown Diamond (LGD) consumer is distinctly omnichannel, 195seamlessly integrating digital discovery with physical validation. This hybrid model is particularly well- suited for a high-value, high-involvement category where trust remains paramount, even as digitally native millennials and Gen Z drive demand.
In India, the prevailing retail model follows a “Research Online, Purchase Offline” (ROPO) or “See Online, Buy Offline” (SOBO) approach, supported by three interconnected layers.
Digital & Social Platforms as the Discovery Engine The consumer journey typically begins on platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, and Pinterest, where aspirational content, influencer collaborations, and celebrity endorsements introduce LGD jewellery within lifestyle-driven narratives.
Brand websites and e-commerce platforms (both proprietary and marketplaces) then serve as detailed information hubs. Consumers explore: • Technology explainers on lab-grown diamonds • High-resolution images and 360-degree product views • Certification details (IGI/GIA) • Transparent pricing comparisons • Design customization options Social commerce tools—such as integrated “Shop Now” features and direct messaging—convert engagement into qualified leads. Digital channels therefore play a critical role in awareness generation, product education, and initial consideration.
Physical Stores as the Trust & Conversion Hub Despite a digitally led start, final purchases—especially for high-value categories such as engagement rings—are predominantly completed offline. The physical store fulfills key functions that digital
platforms cannot entirely replicate: • Tactile verification of diamond brilliance and finish • Face-to-face consultation with trained jewellery experts • Customization, resizing, and personalization services • Emotional assurance derived from a trusted retail environment Recognizing this behavior, digitally native LGD brands such as Limelight have aggressively expanded their offline footprint across multiple cities, including Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets. Established jewellery retailers are also incorporating LGD counters within their showrooms to capture this demand.
Seamless Channel Integration as a Competitive Advantage Success in the LGD segment depends on tight integration between online and offline touchpoints.
Consumers increasingly expect: • Real-time inventory visibility online • Online appointment booking for in-store trials • Access to browsing history for personalized in-store assistance • Post-purchase engagement via WhatsApp, email, and digital support channels This integration creates a unified brand experience, ensuring that the consumer feels supported, informed, and recognized throughout the journey.
Overall, the omnichannel model has become central to LGD retail strategy in India. Digital platforms drive awareness and informed consideration, while physical stores anchor trust and transaction—together accelerating category adoption and organized retail penetration.
1966.5. Methods of Production of Lab-Grown Diamonds Lab-grown diamonds (LGDs) are real diamonds created in controlled laboratory environments using advanced technological processes that replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form deep within the Earth. The two primary methods used for producing LGDs are High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD).
1. High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) • The HPHT method simulates the natural geological conditions — extremely high pressure and temperature — found deep inside the Earth’s mantle where natural diamonds form.
• In this process, a small diamond “seed” is placed in a carbon source and exposed to pressures of around 5–6 GPa and temperatures above 1,400°C. • The carbon atoms melt and begin to crystallize around the seed, forming a rough diamond.
• HPHT diamonds are often used for industrial purposes but can also produce gem-quality stones with high brilliance and purity. • HPHT can also be used to enhance or modify the colour of both natural and lab-grown diamonds.
2. Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) • The CVD method involves growing diamonds from a gas mixture in a vacuum chamber. It allows for better control over the growth environment, leading to high-quality gem-grade diamonds.
• A thin diamond seed (usually HPHT-produced) is placed in a sealed chamber filled with carbon- rich gases such as methane and hydrogen. • The gases are ionized using microwave energy or plasma, breaking molecular bonds and allowing carbon atoms to deposit layer by layer on the seed crystal.
• The process occurs at lower pressure (20–30 Torr) and temperatures between 700–900°C. • CVD diamonds are known for their excellent clarity, uniform growth, and ability to be produced in larger sizes compared to HPHT diamonds.

1976.7. Overview of Diamond Grading System Diamond Grading System is a globally recognized framework used to assess the quality, beauty, and value of a diamond. It provides an objective way to compare diamonds based on specific measurable attributes. The most widely accepted grading standard was developed by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and is based on the “4Cs” — Cut, Colour, Clarity, and Carat Weight.
1) Cut: The cut determines how well a diamond’s facets interact with light. It directly affects the stone’s brilliance, fire, and scintillation (sparkle). A well-cut diamond reflects light beautifully, appearing brighter and more vibrant. The GIA grades cut on a scale from Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, to Poor.
2) Colour: Diamonds are graded on their lack of colour — the less colour, the rarer and more valuable the stone. The GIA colour scale ranges from D (completely colourless) to Z (light yellow or brown). Even slight differences in colour can significantly impact a diamond’s price and appearance.
3) Clarity: Clarity measures the presence of internal inclusions and external blemishes. Since no two diamonds are exactly alike, clarity helps identify and classify them. The scale ranges from Flawless (FL), Internally Flawless (IF), Very Very Slightly Included (VVS1–VVS2), Very Slightly Included (VS1–VS2), Slightly Included (SI1–SI2), to Included (I1–I3). Fewer and smaller inclusions mean higher clarity and value.
4) Carat Weight: This indicates the diamond’s size and weight, where 1 carat = 0.2 grams. While larger diamonds are rarer and more valuable, two diamonds of the same carat weight can vary significantly in price depending on their cut, colour, and clarity.
In addition to the 4Cs, modern grading may also consider shape, fluorescence, and polish/symmetry, which influence a diamond’s overall visual appeal.
Diamonds are graded and certified by reputed laboratories such as GIA (Gemological Institute of America), IGI (International Gemological Institute), HRD Antwerp, and AGS (American Gem Society).
These certifications ensure authenticity, transparency, and standardization in the global diamond trade.

Lab-grown diamonds (LGDs) are now available across almost all popular shapes and quality grades, closely mirroring natural diamonds in appearance, brilliance, and optical performance. However, their price per carat remains significantly lower than that of natural diamonds. Based on the latest market data, a 1-carat round lab-grown diamond (G colour, VS2 clarity, Excellent cut) is priced at approximately USD 2,150, compared with around USD 5,350 for a natural diamond of equivalent specifications, representing a cost advantage of nearly 60%. While the price gap varies depending on shape, quality, demand, and certification, LGDs continue to offer consumers an attractive balance of affordability and aesthetics. As carat size increases, the price differential generally widens, reflecting the greater efficiency and scalability of lab-grown diamond production relative to natural diamond mining.
198This cost differential makes LGDs an appealing choice for consumers seeking affordable luxury, ethical sourcing, and sustainability. In contrast, natural diamonds continue to command a premium owing to their geological rarity, emotional significance, and comparatively stronger resale and investment appeal.
As technological advancements improve production efficiencies and consumer preferences continue to evolve, LGDs are increasingly reshaping the global jewellery market, particularly among millennial and Gen Z consumers, who place greater emphasis on transparency, design flexibility, and value for money alongside traditional notions of rarity.

The lack of resale value and perception of lower prestige remain major psychological barriers, particularly among traditional buyers.
Competition from Natural Diamond Segment:
The strong brand legacy and emotional appeal of natural diamonds continue to dominate the luxury jewellery market. Established diamond brands invest heavily in marketing campaigns reinforcing natural diamonds’ uniqueness, posing a challenge for LGDs to achieve similar desirability.
Limited Consumer Awareness and Education:
Many consumers are still unaware of the differences between natural and lab-grown diamonds or the process used to create LGDs. Misconceptions regarding authenticity, certification, and long-term value hinder market growth, particularly in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities.
201Retail Penetration and Distribution Challenges:
While online presence is growing, LGD jewellery’s availability in traditional brick-and-mortar stores remains limited. Retailers are cautious in allocating display space to LGDs due to uncertain consumer demand and inventory turnover concerns.
Price Volatility and Cost Pressures:
The declining prices of LGDs globally, driven by rapid technological advancements and increased supply, may compress margins for manufacturers and retailers. Continuous innovation and product differentiation are needed to sustain profitability.
Dependence on Imported Raw Materials and Technology:
India’s LGD manufacturing ecosystem still relies on imported reactors, gases, and technological components, leading to higher input costs and vulnerability to currency fluctuations or trade restrictions.
Intense Global Competition:
Countries such as China, the US, and Singapore are expanding their LGD manufacturing capabilities, creating a competitive landscape that could challenge India’s position as a cost-effective production hub.
Sustainability Verification and Greenwashing Risks:
As sustainability becomes a major selling point, companies face the challenge of proving genuine environmental benefits. Inaccurate claims or lack of transparency around carbon neutrality could damage brand credibility.

OVERVIEW We are engaged in the design, manufacturing and sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery in India, operating through an integrated business model comprising (i) business-to-business (“B2B”) manufacturing and distribution to organized retailers, standalone retailers and wholesalers, to support their inventory and design requirements; and (ii) direct-to-consumer (“D2C”) omnichannel retail operations through our subsidiary, Ayaani Diamonds and Jewellery Private Limited (“Ayaani”). Our operations span multiple stages of the jewellery value chain, including procurement and management of raw materials, product design, manufacturing, quality control, distribution, branded retail and direct-to-consumer sales.
We offer a range of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery products across categories such as rings, earrings, pendants, bracelets, mangalsutras, nose pins, necklaces, cufflings and bangles, across daily wear, occasion-based, men’s jewellery and customized segments. While our product portfolio spans multiple price points and categories, we have strategically focused on the lightweight, affordable lab grown diamond-studded gold jewellery segment which caters to the growing demand for affordable luxury and daily-wear jewellery particularly among younger consumers.
206As per CareEdge Report, lab-grown diamond are diamonds that are created in laboratories using advanced technological processes that replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form beneath the earth’s surface. Lab-grown diamonds have the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as mined diamonds. They are made of pure carbon, have identical crystal structures, and display the same sparkle, hardness, and durability as that of natural mined diamonds. From a visual and structural standpoint, jewellery made with lab-grown diamonds are indistinguishable from jewellery made with natural diamonds, even to trained eyes, unless examined with specialized equipment. For details, see “Industry Overview – Overview of the LGD Jeweller Industry in India” on page 191.
Our prominent B2B customers include established and organised jewellery retailers such as ‘GIVA’, ‘Palmonas’, ‘ONYA’, and ‘Ladia Diamonds’, among others. We also cater standalone retailers and wholesalers under B2B vertical. We supply lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to such customers based on designs developed by us and customised to their specific requirements, including purity standards, weight specifications, design preferences and finishing parameters. Our association with such customers is supported by our ability to offer design-led product development, consistent product quality and timely execution of orders.
We commenced our operation from July, 2022 onwards as a B2B manufacturer and supplier of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to retailers. Our B2B operations constitute a key component of our business and involve the design, manufacture and supply of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to a network of jewellery retailers across 18 states and 2 union territory in India as well as to overseas customers in United Arab Emirates, Australia, Canada, Taiwan and Kenya. Our B2B supply operations are supported by our manufacturing facility located in Surat, Gujarat, which is a key hub for diamond processing and manufacturing in India, as well as our varied design portfolio across our product range. Our manufacturing processes include in-house designing, prototyping and production, enabling control over product quality, cost efficiencies and lead times, and allowing us to cater to both standardized and customized retailer requirements. For details, see “Our Business – Our Manufacturing Facility” on page 223.
In July 2025, we expanded our business model through the acquisition of Ayaani, which was previously one of our key B2B customers for details see “Our Business – Customers – Set out below are the details of our top ten customers for the period indicated herein below” on page 227, a D2C lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery brand with a digital presence and retail footprints. For details relating to the said acquisition, see “History and Certain Corporate Matters - Details regarding material acquisitions or divestments of business/undertakings, mergers, amalgamation, any revaluation of assets, etc., in the last 10 years” on page 250.

Our Competitive Strengths We benefit from the competitive strengths, as set out below. • Integrated B2B and D2C business model with a growing and diversified customer base.
We operate an integrated business model comprising B2B supply of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to a network of jewellery retailers comprising organized and standalone retailers and wholesalers and recently acquired D2C omnichannel retail operations through our subsidiary, Ayaani.
Our B2B operations enable us to cater to demand from organized retailers, standalone retailers and wholesalers, including standardized as well as customized product requirements, while our D2C operations enable direct engagement with end consumers, support brand development and participation in retail-level value capture, while also providing insights into customer preferences that support our product design and development.
211We have demonstrated a consistent increase in our B2B customer base across periods, reflecting the scalability of our business model and growing acceptance of our products among organized retailers, standalone retailers and wholesalers. Our B2B operations are supported by a network of organized retailers, standalone retailers and wholesalers across 18 states and 2 union territory in India, developed over the course of our operations.

• Well positioned to capitalize on the growth of lab grown diamond jewellery We are positioned to capitalize on the rapid expansion of the lab-grown diamond jewellery market, which is witnessing significant growth both globally and in India. As per the CareEdge Report, the global LGD jewellery market has grown from USD 4,058 million in CY20 to USD 6,117 million in CY25 and is projected to reach USD 9,406 million by CY30. Similarly, the Indian market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 15.8% from CY25 to CY30, reaching Rs 71,890 million by CY30 from Rs 34,501 million in CY25. For details, see “Industry Overview - Global Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry - Chart 15: Global Lab Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry Market Size and Growth (CY20-CY30P)and Industry Overview - Global Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry - Chart 18: India Lab Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry Market Size and Growth (CY20-CY30P)” on page 187 and 192.
Our business model is aligned with the key structural drivers fueling the lab-grown diamond jewellery
market: i. Affordability driving access: Lab-grown diamonds jewellery is significantly more affordable than natural diamond jewellery, making premium designs accessible to a wider consumer base.
As per the CareEdge Report, lab-grown diamonds are priced 60–80% lower than natural diamonds of comparable specifications, which significantly broadens the addressable market for aspirational luxury. For details, see “Industry Overview – Global Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry” on page 187 ii. Evolving consumer preferences and sustainability: There is a marked shift in consumer behavior, particularly among millennials and Gen Z, who increasingly value transparency and ethical sourcing. As per the CareEdge Report, lab-grown diamonds are viewed as a sustainable alternative with a minimal environmental footprint and conflict-free sourcing, which has become a compelling value proposition for modern consumers. For details, see “Industry Overview - Sustainability as a Key Selling Proposition” on page 201 iii. Expansion into Tier-2 and Tier-3 Markets: Rising disposable incomes and changing aspirations in smaller cities are broadening the demand base for lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery.
As per the CareEdge Report, the market is expected to benefit from increasing penetration 214across Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities, supported by omnichannel retail models. For details, see “Industry Overview – Key Demand Drivers and Opportunities for LGD Jewellery Market in India – Expansion Across Tier-2 and Tier-3 Markets” on page 201 iv. Technological Advancement: Improvements in technologies enable the production of high- quality lab grown diamonds that are chemically and physically identical to mined diamonds. As per the CareEdge Report, these advancements allow for consistent quality and variety, enabling designers to experiment with innovative cuts and styles. For details, see “Industry Overview - Technological Advancements in Design and Production” on page 201 Furthermore, the lab grown diamonds business model offers distinct commercial advantages. As per the CareEdge Report, the most significant financial advantage is the potential for substantially higher gross margins. In the natural diamond pipeline, a significant portion of the final retail price is locked in upstream, covering mining costs, rough diamond premiums, and the margins of multiple intermediaries (miners, traders, rough dealers). The cost of production for a rough lab-grown diamond is primarily technological (equipment, energy) and is not subject to the geological scarcity premium of mined stones.
This creates a wider gap between the cost of goods sold (COGS) and the final selling price. While lab grown diamonds jewellery is sold at a significant discount to natural diamonds, the reduction in COGS is even more pronounced, preserving a healthier margin percentage for the retailer. For details, see “Industry Overview – Profitability and Working Capital Advantages of LGD Jewellery Business Model
(Qualitative) – Higher Gross Margins” on page 190 In addition, the relatively streamlined sourcing and manufacturing processes enable better cost control, shorter lead times and improved inventory management. These factors, together with growing consumer acceptance of lab-grown diamonds, position the business model to support scalable growth.
Additionally, as per the CareEdge Report, as lab grown diamond model inherently carries lower inventory risk and capital lock-in. Natural diamond jewellery retailers must make large, upfront capital commitments to purchase inventory of finished pieces or certified stones, with money tied up for extended periods based on speculative demand. In contrast, the LGD supply chain is more responsive.
Key stones for popular designs can be grown to order within weeks, allowing retailers to hold less finished goods stock and more ‘virtual’ inventory in the form of design mock-ups or certified sample stones. Furthermore, the consistent and predictable availability of lab-grown stones (in terms of size, colour, and clarity) eliminates the ‘one-of-a-kind’ scarcity that forces natural diamond buyers to purchase unique stones immediately for fear of losing them. This enables a "just-in-time" or made-to-order approach, drastically reducing the capital required for inventory and the risk of holding slow-moving or obsolete stock. For details, see “Industry Overview Profitability and Working Capital Advantages of LGD Jewellery Business Model (Qualitative) – Lower Inverntory Risk” on page 215 We believe that our business model, including our focus on lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery across a range of product categories and price points, is aligned with the underlying growth drivers of the lab-grown diamonds jewellery segment. Our integrated operations across manufacturing, B2B supply and D2C retail, together with our design capabilities and focus on affordable jewellery offerings, position us to cater to evolving consumer preferences and participate in the growth of the lab-grown diamond jewellery market.

Our Strategies Set forth below are our key business and growth strategies. The strategies described below have been approved by way of a board resolution passed by our Board of Directors at their meeting held on September 24, 2026.
• Enhance and broaden our customer base across segments We intend to expand and diversify our customer base with a primary focus on our B2B segment, supported by the growing acceptance of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery. In our B2B operations, we aim to strengthen relationships with existing customers while onboarding new retailers and wholesalers by offering design-led, competitively priced products, ensuring consistent quality and timely delivery, and catering to both standardized and customized product requirements.
We also intend to engage with established jewellery industry players who have not yet meaningfully entered the lab-grown diamond segment and position ourselves as a manufacturing partner as and when such players foray into this space. This approach is expected to support expansion of our customer base and enhance order volumes across geographies. In addition, we intend to expand our presence across key occasion-based purchase segments, including daily wear, self-purchase and bridal categories, which are expected to drive demand in the lab-grown diamond jewellery segment.
In our D2C segment, we intend to enhance our direct engagement with end-consumers through our retail 217stores and digital platforms, enabling greater brand visibility, customer insights and higher realisation.
i. Focus on Younger Demographics (Gen Z and Millennials): Our strategy to target younger consumers with affordable, design-led lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery aligns with the industry’s primary growth drivers. As per the CareEdge Report, the adoption of lab-grown diamond jewellery is strongest among younger consumers, particularly Gen Z and Millennials consumers, who prioritize innovation, transparency, and ethical sourcing in luxury purchase. For details, see “Industry Overview – Global Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry” on page 187. We believe this demographic is attracted to the value proposition of lab-grown diamonds. As per the CareEdge Report, lab-grown diamond jewellery is generally priced 60–80% lower per carat than natural diamonds of comparable specifications, with a 1-carat round lab-grown diamond (G colour, VS2 clarity, Excellent cut) is priced at approximately USD 2,150, compared with around USD 5,350 for a natural diamond of equivalent specifications representing a cost advantage of nearly 60%. While the price gap varies depending on shape, quality, demand, and certification, LGDs continue to offer consumers an attractive balance of affordability and aesthetics. As carat size increases, the price differential generally widens, reflecting the greater efficiency and scalability of lab-grown diamond production relative to natural diamond mining. For details, see “Industry Overview– Global Lab- Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry” on page 187. This pricing structure makes premium designs accessible to a wider consumer base and encourages adoption in the ‘daily wear & fashion jewellery’ segment. As per the CareEdge Report, the market size for the ‘daily wear & fashion jewelleryself- purchase’ segment is projected to grow from ₹8,541 million in CY25 to ₹17,708 million by CY30.
For details, see “Industry Overview – Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry – By Occasion” on page 193. ii. Expansion across occasion-based purchase segments: We intend to expand our product portfolio to cater to bridal and engagement segments in order to target the largest revenue drivers in the industry. As per the CareEdge Report, bridal and engagement occasions remain the dominant drivers of the Indian market, supported by the cultural tradition of jewellery purchasing, lab-grown diamond jewellery value proposition allows for a larger, more impressive stone at a accessible price point and is perfectly aligned with the aspirations and budget considerations of modern couples for milestone event of marriage and engagement. As per the CareEdge Report, the market size for bridal and engagement is projected to expand from ₹10,291 million in CY25 to ₹21,213 million by CY30. The CareEdge Report notes that the value proposition of lab-grown diamonds allows consumers to purchase larger, more impressive stones at accessible price points, aligning with the aspirations of modern couples. For details, see “Industry Overview – Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry – By Occasion” on page 193.
We also intend to focus on customer retention through marketing, personalised communication across both B2B and D2C channels. These initiatives are expected to support repeat purchases, enhance customer lifetime value and strengthen long-term relationships. We believe that our focus on customer acquisition and expansion across segments will enable us to broaden our customer base and support growth in our operations.
• Continue to focus on the domestic market while evaluating selective export opportunities Our revenues are predominantly derived from domestic operations. During the the last three Fiscals, domestic revenues constituted a substantial majority of our total revenue from operations.
Notwithstanding our primary focus on the domestic market, we have, in the past, supplied lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to customers located outside India, primarily in the United Arab Emirates, Australia, Canada, Taiwan and Kenya, on an order-driven basis.
While exports do not presently constitute a material portion of our revenues, we may continue to evaluate export opportunities, particularly in United Arab Emirates and Australia on a selective and order-driven basis, without diluting our focus on the domestic market.
While our primary focus will remain on the domestic market, export orders may be undertaken where they are commercially viable, operationally manageable and consistent with applicable quality and regulatory standards.
218• Increase our participation in our marketing and industry engagement initiatives We intend to continue investing in marketing and customer engagement initiatives across both our B2B and D2C operations, with a focus on strengthening relationships with existing customers and supporting customer acquisition.
For our B2B operations, our marketing efforts include personalized visits to key B2B customers and participation in jewellery exhibitions, which enable us to showcase our product portfolio, present new designs and collections, engage with existing customers and establish relationships with potential customers. Such exhibitions provide a platform to enhance our market presence and gain insights into evolving customer preferences. In the past, we have participated in the India International Jewellery Show (“IIJS”) supported by The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (“GJEPC”) For our D2C operations, we focus on enhancing brand visibility and customer engagement through digital marketing initiatives, including our online platform and presence across social media channels, which support customer acquisition and engagement.
The table below sets forth details of expenditure incurred towards marketing activities, including expense incurred towards exhibition participation, during the periods indicated:
Particulars For the Fiscals Fiscal 2026 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Amount (₹ % of total Amount (₹ % of total Amount (₹ in % of total in million) expense in million) expense million) expense Expense towards 13.92 0.79 2.12 0.25 1.71 0.35 marketing activities* *As per Restated Consolidated Financial Information Through marketing, exhibition and industry engagement initiatives, we seek to maintain visibility, support customer acquisition and retention and strengthen our positioning as integrated player in B2B and D2C players.
• Augment working capital resources to support business operations We intend to augment our working capital resources to support the scale and continuity of our B2B business operations and to reduce dependence on borrowings, thereby improving financial flexibility and supporting long-term sustainability of our operations.
Our business requires significant working capital, primarily on account of procurement of gold bullion, lab-grown diamonds and other raw materials, maintaining inventory in line with B2B customer requirement and managing trade receivables arising from sales made on credit terms. Given the nature of the jewellery business, availability of adequate working capital is critical to ensure timely procurement of raw materials, uninterrupted manufacturing activity and efficient execution of customer orders.

For details, see “Object of the Issue - Funding working capital requirements of our Company” on page 140.
By augmenting our working capital, we seek to reduce our reliance on borrowings, enhance our financial flexibility, and strengthen our ability to scale operations in line with growing demand from our customers. This will better position us to manage inventory and support the credit terms often required in the jewellery business, particularly as B2B supplier. For further details relating to the proposed utilization of the Net Proceeds, see “Objects of the Issue” on page 139 and for associated risks, see “Risk Factors – Our business is capital intensive, and our ability to raise additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, is critical to sustaining our operations and growth. Any inability to do so could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash 219flows.” on page 73.
• Strengthen design-led product innovation and expand our product portfolio We intend to continue strengthening our design-led approach by expanding our product portfolio across categories, price points and customer segments. Our design capabilities enable us to develop a wide range of standardized jewellery offerings, while also catering to customized product requirements for our B2B customers, and we propose to further enhance our offerings in line with evolving consumer preferences and market trends.
We intend to increase our focus on new product development, including introduction of collections aligned with emerging fashion trends, lightweight lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery for bridal wear and higher-value designs for occasion-based purchases such as weddings and engagements. This approach is expected to enable us to address a wider spectrum of customer requirements and improve our product mix.
In addition, we propose to leverage insights derived from our B2B and D2C operations to guide design development, enabling us to align our offerings with customer preferences across geographies and segments. We also intend to continue utilizing technology-enabled design tools, including CAD and CAM, to improve design precision, reduce development timelines and support efficient prototyping. We believe that our focus on design-led innovation and continuous expansion of our product portfolio will enable us to enhance customer engagement, improve realization and support growth across both our B2B and D2C operations.
• Expand and strengthen our D2C omnichannel presence under the “Ayaani” brand We intend to expand our direct-to-consumer operations through our subsidiary, Ayaani, by strengthening our omnichannel retail presence and enhancing our customer value proposition across digital and physical touchpoints.
We propose to expand our retail footprint in existing and new geographies through a calibrated approach, with a focus on scaling through franchise-operated stores to enable capital-efficient expansion, particularly in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities, while maintaining flexibility to operate select company-operated stores in key markets for brand positioning and customer experience. We may also explore alternative retail formats, including shop-in-shop arrangements with multi-brand retail outlets, to enable cost- efficient market entry and demand assessment prior to full-scale expansion.
In parallel, we intend to strengthen our digital channel by enhancing our online storefront and increasing our presence across social media and other digital platforms. As on the date of this Prospectus, we maintain our presence on social media platforms such as Instagram, Pinterest and YouTube with a consolidated follower base of over 45,000. We also propose to further integrate our online and offline sales channels to provide a seamless customer experience, enabling digital discovery, online browsing and in-store purchase, in line with evolving consumer behaviour.
We intend to leverage customer data generated through our digital and retail channels to better understand purchasing patterns and preferences, which may support product development, inventory planning and targeted marketing initiatives.
This strategy is aligned with industry trends highlighted in the CareEdge Report, which indicates increasing consumer preference for omnichannel purchasing models and growing penetration of organized jewellery retail in non-metro markets. For details, see “Industry Overview” on page 170 We believe that expanding our omnichannel presence, strengthening digital capabilities and enhancing our customer value proposition will enable us to improve customer experience, drive customer retention and support the growth of our operations.

Our Manufacturing Process Our manufacturing operations follow a structured, multi-stage process comprising procurement, design translation, casting, assembly, finishing and quality control, enabling us to undertake end-to-end production of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery.
We procure gold, lab-grown diamonds and other materials for our manufacturing operations from permitted dealers, in accordance with our operational requirements and procurement framework. Upon procurement, the raw material including gold and lab-grown diamond received is physically verified and recorded in our Company’s stock register and corresponding accounting records, capturing details such as quantity, purity, source and date of procurement.
Thereafter with the conversion of approved designs into physical prototypes through 3D printing, which are subsequently used to create master moulds. These master moulds serve as the base for replication of jewellery designs. Wax models are then produced from such moulds and assembled into casting trees through a process of wax mould setting.
The wax trees are fixed inside metal flasks and encased in investment material to form moulds (flask stage). These flasks are then subjected to controlled heating, whereby the wax is melted and removed, creating cavities within the mould. Molten gold is introduced into these cavities under controlled conditions (casting by heating) to form the jewellery components.
224Upon cooling, the investment material, including Plaster of Paris (PoP), is removed (PoP cavity and removal stage) and the cast structures are cleaned. Individual jewellery pieces are then separated from the casting tree (gold tree plucking) and subjected to initial inspection, including central quality assurance and weighing, to verify metal usage, dimensions and casting quality.
Subsequently, the components undergo filing and laser soldering, wherein excess material is removed, contours are refined and individual components are assembled with precision. This is followed by diamond fitting and studding, wherein lab-grown diamonds are set into the jewellery, and thereafter multi-stage polishing, which enhances surface finish, uniformity and overall appearance of the jewellery pieces.
The finished products are then subjected to final quality control and packaging, wherein each piece is inspected for aesthetic, structural and functional parameters, including gemstone setting, surface finish, sizing, locking mechanisms and durability. Products that meet internal quality standards are cleaned, labelled and securely packed.
Thereafter, the finished jewellery is dispatched to customers, distributors or retail locations, along with relevant documentation and certifications, as applicable.
Our manufacturing process is supported by quality control measures implemented at multiple stages, including raw material testing, in-process inspections and final product evaluation. We believe that this structured and sequential manufacturing framework enables us to maintain consistency in product quality, ensure adherence to design specifications and support timely execution of customer orders.
Quality Control Process Our manufacturing operations are supported by a multi-stage quality control framework implemented across raw material procurement, design validation, production processes and final product inspection, to ensure consistency in product quality and adherence to internal specifications.
At the initial stage, raw materials such as gold and lab-grown diamonds are procured along with supplier documentation and identification markings. The Company undertakes inward checks to verify quantities, specifications and supporting documentation, and ensures that materials received are in line with purchase requirements before being introduced into the manufacturing process.
In addition, design observation and validation is carried out prior to production. Design concepts are reviewed for feasibility, structural integrity, comfort and adherence to specifications. Element-level inspections are conducted to verify parameters such as stone size, placement, metal thickness and overall design suitability, enabling identification and resolution of potential issues at the pre-production stage.
225During the manufacturing process, we undertake production process examination through multiple in-process quality checks. These include assessment of cleanliness, aesthetic and functional parameters. Cleanliness and material checks involve verification of gold purity and evaluation of gemstone quality, including cubic zirconia, pearls and other stones. Aesthetic checks include ensuring shape uniformity, absence of design mismatch, defects or damage, and consistency in polish and colour, including verification that there is no excess solder, improper enamel or discolouration.
Functional checks are conducted to ensure structural integrity and usability of the jewellery pieces. These include verification that there are no sharp edges, ensuring proper strength and durability, correct fit and flexibility, secure stone settings, proper attachment of components such as earring posts and clasps, smooth finishing of bangles and accurate sizing of rings, as well as proper locking mechanisms.
At the final stage, final inspection and packaging is undertaken prior to dispatch. Each finished product is subjected to checks relating to purity, durability and overall quality. This includes verification of metal purity, gemstone authenticity, durability testing and hallmarking, where applicable. Products are also inspected for safety, finishing and packaging standards prior to being cleaned, wrapped and packed.
We believe that our structured, stage-wise quality control process enables us to maintain consistency in product quality, minimise defects and ensure that finished products meet required specifications prior to dispatch.

Pricing The pricing of our lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery products is primarily influenced by prevailing market prices of gold and lab-grown diamonds, which constitute the key raw materials used in our products.
Accordingly, fluctuations in gold prices and lab-grown diamond prices have a direct impact on our product pricing.
We determine the pricing of our products based on a structured mechanism that takes into account various factors, including the cost of gold and lab-grown diamonds, labour charges, design and manufacturing costs, marketing expenses, operational overheads and other ancillary costs.
Under our B2B operations, pricing is typically determined based on customer-specific requirements, including purity, weight specifications, design complexity and order volumes. We follow a pricing approach aligned with industry practices, including contemporaneous fixing of gold prices at the time of order execution, along with pricing of lab-grown diamonds based on prevailing market rates.
Under our D2C operations, pricing is determined based on product design, gold and lab-grown diamond content, making charges and applicable margins, and is generally standardised across our retail and online channels. Our D2C pricing strategy is positioned to offer value-driven, design-led lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery at accessible price points, while maintaining transparency in pricing components.
We believe that our pricing approach across B2B and D2C segments enables us to remain competitive, manage cost structures efficiently and cater to diverse customer requirements.
Inventory Management We have implemented structured inventory management and monitoring practices to track inventory movement and support operational efficiency across our B2B and D2C operations. Inventory procurement and production planning are undertaken based on targeted sales volumes, inventory turnover considerations and anticipated customer demand, including seasonal trends, regional preferences and order-specific requirements.
231Our inventory primarily comprises gold, lab-grown diamonds and lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, including both standardised designs and customised products. We maintain internal systems to monitor stock levels, inventory movement and reconciliation across raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods.
Each of our lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery products is assigned a unique identification code or barcode, which facilitates tracking, traceability and inventory control across manufacturing, storage and retail operations. This enables us to monitor inventory across our B2B supply chain as well as our D2C retail stores and online channels.
We maintain a diverse inventory portfolio comprising a wide range of designs developed to cater to regional, cultural and customer-specific preferences across our operating markets. Our product portfolio includes lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery suited for festive, occasion-based and daily wear segments, and is periodically refreshed through continuous design development based on market trends, customer feedback and order requirements.
Our inventory and production planning are closely integrated with our design and order management processes.
While certain designs are manufactured in advance based on historical demand patterns and B2B order trends, a portion of our production, particularly customised lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery, is undertaken against confirmed customer orders. This approach enables us to balance inventory availability with design flexibility.
Further, our proximity-based sourcing framework for lab-grown diamonds and procurement practices for gold enable us to align raw material procurement with production requirements, thereby optimising inventory levels and reducing lead times.
Through these inventory management practices, we seek to maintain optimal inventory levels, reduce inventory obsolescence risk, manage working capital efficiently and ensure timely fulfilment of customer orders across both B2B and D2C segments.
Marketing For our B2B operations marketing efforts include personalized visits to key customers across multiple cities, enabling us to strengthen relationships, better understand customer requirements and facilitate order generation and repeat business.
Further to support our B2B operations, our marketing efforts also includes participation in jewellery exhibitions, which enable us to showcase our product portfolio, present new designs and collections, engage with existing customers and establish relationships with potential customers. Such exhibitions provide us a platform to enhance our market presence and gain insights into evolving customer preferences. In the past, we have participated in the India International Jewellery Show (“IIJS”) supported by The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (“GJEPC”) For our D2C operations, we focus on enhancing brand visibility and customer engagement through digital marketing initiatives, including our online platform and presence across social media channels which support customer acquisition and engagement.

232Through marketing, exhibition and industry engagement initiatives, we seek to maintain visibility, support customer acquisition and retention and strengthen our positioning as integrated player in B2B and D2C players Information Technology Our operations are supported by a combination of internally deployed and third-party information technology systems, which enable us to manage key business functions including accounting, inventory management, production planning, human resources and customer interface across our B2B and D2C operations.
We utilise accounting and financial management software, including Tally-based systems, for maintaining books of accounts, statutory compliance, invoicing and financial reporting. These systems support real-time recording of transactions, reconciliation and generation of financial statements, thereby enabling effective financial control and reporting processes.
We utilise computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) tools for the design, prototyping and manufacturing of our jewellery, which enables enhanced design accuracy, faster product development cycles and efficient production.
Our inventory management and production processes are supported by software solutions namely ‘Gati’, which facilitate tracking of raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods across manufacturing and retail operations. These systems enable monitoring of stock levels, product movement and order execution, and support coordination between procurement, production and dispatch functions.
We also utilise software applications for payroll and human resource management, including employee attendance, salary processing and compliance-related functions. These systems assist in managing workforce- related data and support administrative efficiency across our operations.
Our D2C operations are supported by digital infrastructure, including our website and e-commerce platform, which enable customer engagement, product discovery and order placement. Our web infrastructure is supported by third-party hosting services, which facilitate online accessibility and data management.
In addition, we have engaged third-party service providers for development and maintenance of customised software applications and web-based solutions, including support for e-commerce and operational platforms.
Utilities Our operations require utilities such as electricity and water for manufacturing, retail and administrative purposes.
The majority of our electricity requirements at our manufacturing facility are met through power supply from the state electricity distribution network, while water required for our day-to-day operations is sourced from municipal water supply.
Our retail stores are also dependent on electricity for lighting, display systems, security systems and overall store operations. To ensure continuity of operations and minimise disruption due to power outages, our stores are equipped with backup arrangements.
Competition The Indian jewellery market, including the lab-grown diamond jewellery segment, is characterised by a high degree of competition, with participants seeking differentiation through design capabilities, product offerings, pricing and execution efficiency.
The competitive landscape for the lab-grown diamond jewellery industry is characterised by competition from the natural diamond segment as well as increasing global and domestic rivalry. As per the CareEdge Report, the natural diamond segment continues to benefit from strong brand legacy and emotional appeal, particularly in the luxury jewellery market. For details, see “Industry Overview – Threats and Challenges for the Gems and Jewellery Industry” on page 201. Established players in this segment undertake significant marketing and brand- building initiatives, which reinforce the perceived exclusivity of natural diamonds. In comparison, lab-grown diamond jewellery may be perceived by certain customer segments as lower in value or as substitutes, particularly 233among traditional buyers.
Within the Indian market, competition exists across both organised and unorganised players engaged in manufacturing, distribution and retail of gold and lab-grown diamond jewellery.
In our B2B operations, we compete with other jewellery manufacturers supplying to organised retailers, independent retailers and distributors. Competitiveness in this segment is driven by factors such as ability to offer customised and design-led products, consistency in quality, pricing, reliability of supply, working capital efficiency and timely execution of orders. The ability to align with customer-specific requirements, including purity, weight specifications and design preferences, is also a key differentiator.
In our D2C operations, we compete with established jewellery brands, regional players and emerging digital-first brands offering lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery through retail and online channels. Competition in this segment is based on factors such as brand positioning, product design, pricing, customer experience, omnichannel presence, marketing initiatives and customer engagement strategies.
Our Company operates in a competitive landscape comprising organised and unorganised jewellery manufacturers, distributors and retailers catering to domestic markets. Certain competitors may have operational or commercial advantages, including access to established supply networks, cost efficiencies, larger scale of operations or long-standing customer relationships.
Insurance We maintain insurance policies that are customary for companies operating in the jewellery industry.

While providing this flexibility, the Code also introduces several worker-centric provisions, including an expanded definition of 'worker,' the formal recognition of fixed-term employment with pro- rata benefits, and the establishment of a 'Reskilling Fund' for retrenched employees. Furthermore, it establishes a clear framework for recognizing a sole negotiating union to streamline collective bargaining and imposes stricter conditions, such as a mandatory notice period, for strikes and lock-outs, aiming to balance employer flexibility with industrial harmony.
Code on Wages, 2019 The Code on Wages, 2019, with effect from November 21, 2025 is a comprehensive legislation that

Its primary objective is to create a uniform and streamlined framework for wage-related regulations across all sectors of employment. A key feature of the Code is the universalization of minimum wage and timely wage payment provisions, making them applicable to all employees, including those in the unorganized sector, thereby removing previous wage ceilings and employment-specific limitations. The Code introduces the concept of a national "floor wage" to be determined by the Central Government, which will serve as a baseline that state-level minimum wages cannot fall below. Furthermore, it prohibits gender discrimination in matters of wages and recruitment for the same or similar nature of work, codifies the rules for annual bonus payments, and specifies clear timelines for wage payments and permissible deductions. The enforcement mechanism is also revamped, introducing the role of an "Inspector-cum- Facilitator" to advise employers and employees, alongside traditional inspection functions, aiming for a more transparent and less adversarial compliance system.
Code on Social Security, 2020 The Code on Social Security, 2020, with effect from November 21, 2025 is a comprehensive legislation designed to consolidate and amend nine central labour enactments related to social security, including those governing provident funds, employee insurance, maternity benefits, and gratuity. Its most significant objective is to universalize social security benefits by extending coverage to the vast unorganized sector, as well as to gig and platform workers, who were previously largely outside the traditional safety net. The Code establishes a framework for this expansion through the mandatory registration of all workers on a national portal and the creation of a dedicated Social Security Fund to finance schemes for them. While streamlining the administration of existing statutory schemes like the EPF and ESI, the Code's core purpose is to create a single, unified structure to provide a social security umbrella for the entire Indian workforce, adapting to the changing nature of work in the modern economy.
Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions (OSH) Code, 2020 The Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions (OSH) Code, 2020, with effect from November 21, 2025 is a comprehensive legislation that consolidates and replaces 13 central labour laws, including The Factories Act, 1948; The Mines Act, 1952; The Dock Workers (Safety, Health and Welfare) Act, 1986; The Building and Other Construction Workers Act, 1996; The Plantations Labour Act, 1951; The Contract Labour Act, 1970; The Inter-State Migrant Workmen Act, 1979; The Working Journalist and other Newspaper Employees Act, 1955; The Working Journalist (Fixation of Rates of Wages) Act, 1958;
The Motor Transport Workers Act, 1961; The Sales Promotion Employees Act, 1976; The Beedi and 244Cigar Workers Act, 1966; and The Cine-Workers and Cinema Theatre Workers Act, 1981. Its primary objective is to create a single, uniform regulatory framework for a wide range of establishments. The Code simplifies compliance for employers by introducing a single registration and license system and clearly defines the duties of both employers and employees regarding workplace safety. Furthermore, it establishes advisory boards, introduces specific welfare provisions for contract and migrant workers, and permits women to work at night with their consent and adequate safety. By shifting the enforcement mechanism towards an "Inspector-cum-Facilitator" model, the Code aims to foster a more proactive and advisory approach to ensuring safe and humane working conditions.

The Restated March 2026 Consolidated Financial Information, Restated March 2025 Consolidated Financial Information and Restated March 2024 Consolidated Financial Information are collectively referred to as the “Restated Consolidated Financial Information”.

The Restated Consolidated Financial Information has been compiled by the Management of the Parent Company from the audited Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group for the year ended March 31, 2026 (“the March 2026 Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements”), the audited Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 (“the March 2025 Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements”), the audited Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group for the year ended March 31, 2024 (“the March 2024 Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements”) and the audited Special Purpose Financial Statements of the Parent Company for the period ended March 31, 2023 (“the March 2023 Special Purpose Financial Statements”) (collectively referred to as “Special Purpose Financial Statements”), prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (referred to as “Ind AS”) as prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time), other accounting principles generally accepted in India and presentation requirements of Division II of Schedule III of the Act, (Ind AS compliant Schedule III), as applicable, all of which have been approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on March 17, 2026, except for the March 2026 Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements which have been approved at the meeting held on September 08, 2026.
The March 2025 Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements, the March 2024 Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements and the March 2023 Special Purpose Financial Statements have been prepared using the audited financial statements which were earlier prepared in accordance with Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India (hereinafter referred to as ‘Indian GAAP financial statements’) for the respective aforementioned periods, being the applicable financial reporting framework of the Group in such periods. The said audited Indian GAAP financial statements have been adjusted for the differences in the accounting principles on transition to Ind AS, as per the requirements of Ind AS 101, First-time Adoption of the Indian Accounting Standards (‘Ind AS 101’). Such audited Indian GAAP financial statements for the years / period ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 were 298approved by the Board of Directors of the Parent Company at their meetings held on August 26, 2025, September 03, 2024 and September 05, 2023 respectively.
The Group has transitioned to Ind AS during the year ended March 31, 2026 and accordingly will prepare its first complete Ind AS financials for the year ended March 31, 2026. The Group has thereby prepared its audited Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2026 (“the March 2026 audited Financial Statements”) in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards as specified under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 prescribed by Section 133 of the Act, considering April 01, 2024 as transition date for the statutory requirements under section 129 of the Act. Such financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on September 01, 2026.
However, for the purpose of the March 2026 Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements, April 01, 2023, has been considered as the transition date. Accordingly, the Group has applied the accounting policy choices (both mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions availed as per Ind AS 101) as on April 01, 2023 for these Special Purpose Financial Statements. Refer note 47 of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information for information on how the Group has adopted Ind AS.
The Special Purpose Financial Statements have been prepared solely for the purpose of preparation of Restated Consolidated Financial Information for inclusion in offer documents in relation to the proposed IPO, which requires financial statements of all the periods included.

b) do not require any adjustment for modification as there is no modification in the underlying audit reports. c) do not reflect the effects of events that occurred subsequent to the respective dates of board meeting for adoption of the audited financial statements of the Group based upon which special purpose financial statements have been prepared.
2.2. Statement of Compliance with Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind AS”) The Restated Consolidated Financial Information comply in all material aspects with Ind AS notified under
section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and other relevant provisions of the Act.

Change in accounting policies is done only in cases where required or permitted by Ind AS 101 – Ind AS on First Time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards. Refer to note 47 for information on how the Group has adopted Ind AS.
2.4. Functional and Presentation Currency and rounding of amounts The Restated Consolidated Financial Information is presented in Indian Rupee (Rs.) which is also the functional currency of the Group. All amounts disclosed in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information and notes have been rounded-off to the nearest million with two decimals thereof as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.
All the amounts which are less than Rs. 5,000/- are reported in Restated Consolidated Financial Information as Rs. 0.00/- on account of rounding off. Further, casting differences to the extent of Rs. 0.01/- would also arise on account of rounding off at instances.
2.5. Basis of Measurement The Restated Consolidated Financial Information has been prepared on an accrual basis under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value in accordance with Ind AS.
• Financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value or at amortised cost depending on classification; • Derivative financial instruments and contingent consideration is measured at fair value;
• Assets held for sale – measured at fair value less cost to sell; • Defined benefit plans – plan assets measured at fair value; and • Lease liability and Right-of-use assets – measured at fair value;
A historical cost is a measure of value used for accounting in which the price of an asset on the balance sheet is based on its historical cost, it is generally fair value of consideration given in exchange for goods and services at the time of transaction or original cost when acquired by the Group.
Fair value is the price that is likely to be received on sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
300Fair value measurements under Ind AS are categorised into fair value hierarchy based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are prescribed as follows:
• Level one quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can access on measurement data; • Level two inputs, other than quoted price is included within level one, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and • Level three where observable inputs are used for the valuation of assets or liabilities.
2.6. Basis of Consolidation The Restated Consolidated Financial Information relate to the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries used for the purpose of consolidation are drawn up to the same reporting date as that of the Group.
The Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances and are presented to the extent possible, in the same manner, as the Parent Company’s standalone financial statements. The Restated Consolidated Financial
Information have been prepared on the following basis:
Investment in subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The net assets and results of acquired businesses are included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information from their respective dates of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control. The results of disposed businesses are included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information up to their date of disposal, being the date control ceases. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in these Restated Consolidated Financial Information from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
The excess of cost to the Group of its investment in subsidiaries, on the acquisition dates over and above the Group’s share of equity in the subsidiaries, is recognised as ‘Goodwill on Consolidation’ in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information. The said Goodwill is not amortised, however, it is tested for impairment at each Balance Sheet date and the impairment loss, if any, is provided for. On the other hand, where the share of equity in subsidiaries as on the date of investment is in excess of cost of investments of the Group, it is recognised as ‘Capital Reserve’ and shown under the head ‘Other Equity’ in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
Non-controlling interests represent that part of the total comprehensive income and net assets of subsidiaries attributable to the interest which is not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Parent Company.
301Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries is identified and presented in the consolidated Balance Sheet separately within equity. Non-controlling interests are valued based on the proportion of net assets of the acquired company at the date of acquisition.
Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries consists of: • The amount of equity attributable to non-controlling interests at the date on which investment in a subsidiary is made; and • The non- controlling interests share of movements in equity since the date parent subsidiary relationship came into existence.
The Restated Consolidated Financial Information of the Group have been combined on a line-by-line basis by adding together the book values of like items of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, after fully eliminating intra-group balances and intra-group transactions and resulting unrealised profits. Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated unless cost cannot be recovered.
The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognised within equity.
The profit and other comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling interest of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of profit and loss and consolidated statement of changes in equity.
Upon loss of control, the Group de-recognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in the consolidated profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is accounted for as an equity accounted investee or as a FVTOCI or FVTPL financial asset, depending on the level of influence retained.
2.7. Key Accounting Estimates and Judgements The preparation of Restated Consolidated Financial Information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosures relating to contingent liabilities. The management believes that the estimates used in preparation of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information are prudent and reasonable. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Following are the critical judgements made by the Management while compiling the Restated
Consolidated Financial Information of the Group:
302a) Income Taxes Significant judgements are involved in determining the provision for income taxes including judgement on whether tax positions are probable of being sustained in tax assessments. A tax assessment can involve complex issues, which can only be resolved over extended time periods. The recognition of taxes that are subject to certain legal or economic limits or uncertainties is assessed individually by Management based on the specific facts and circumstances.
In assessing the realisability of deferred tax assets, Management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realised. The ultimate realisation of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible.
Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, Management believes that the Group will realise the benefits of those deductible differences.
b) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities The Group exercises judgement in determining if a particular matter is possible, probable or remote. The Group also exercises judgement in measuring and recognising provisions and the exposures to contingent liabilities related to pending litigation or other outstanding claims subject to negotiated settlement, mediation, government regulation, as well as other contingent liabilities. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that the outflow of resources would be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.
c) Classification of Leases The Group evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116.
Identification of a lease requires significant judgement. The Group uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate. The Group determines the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that options; and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Group is reasonably certain not to exercise that options. In assessing whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease, it considers all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the Group to exercise the option to extend the lease, or not to exercise the option to terminate the lease. The Group revises the lease term if there is a change in the non-cancellable period of a lease. The discount rate is generally based on the incremental borrowing rate specific to the lease being evaluated or for a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.
303Following are the critical estimates made by the Management while compiling the Restated
Consolidated Financial Information of the Group: a) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of the Group's assets are determined by the Management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.
b) Expected credit loss In accordance with Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments, the Group applies ECL model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
For this purpose, the Group follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on the trade receivable balances, whereas it uses ‘general approach’ for other receivables. The application of simplified approach requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date.
As a practical expedient, the Group uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed.
In case of other assets, the Group determines if there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial asset since initial recognition. If the credit risk of such assets has not increased significantly, an amount equal to twelve months ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, an amount equal to lifetime ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance.
c) Accounting for defined benefit plans In accounting for post-retirement benefits, several statistical and other factors that attempt to anticipate future events are used to calculate plan expenses and liabilities. These factors include discount rate assumptions and rate of future compensation increases. To estimate these factors, actuarial consultants also use estimates such as withdrawal, turnover and mortality rates which require significant judgement. The actuarial assumptions used by the Group may differ materially from actual results in future periods due to changing market and 304economic conditions, regulatory events, judicial rulings, higher or lower withdrawal rates, or longer or shorter participant life spans.
d) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. To determine the recoverable amount, management estimates expected future cash flows from each asset or cash-generating unit and determines a suitable interest rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. In the process of measuring expected future cash flows, management makes assumptions about future operating results. These assumptions relate to future events and circumstances. The actual results may vary and may cause significant adjustments to the Group’s assets.
e) Fair value of Financial Instruments Management uses valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of financial instruments where active market quotes are not available. Details of the assumptions used are given in the notes regarding financial assets and liabilities. In applying the valuation techniques, management makes maximum use of market inputs and uses estimates and assumptions that are, as far as possible, consistent with observable data that market participants would use in pricing the instrument. Where applicable data is not observable, management uses its best estimate about the assumptions that market participants would make. These estimates may vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an arm’s length transaction at the reporting date.
2.8. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES a) Current and Non-Current classification The Group presents assets and liabilities in the restated statement of assets and liabilities based on current / non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when it is: • Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle, • Held primarily for the purpose of trading, • Expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period, or • Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: • It is Expected to be settled in normal operating cycle, • It is held primarily for the purpose of trading, • It is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period, or 305• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
The terms of the liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Group has determined its operating cycle, as explained in schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013, as twelve months, having regard to the nature of business being carried out by the Group. The same has been considered for classifying assets and liabilities as current and non-current while preparing the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
b) Property, Plant and Equipment and Capital work-in-progress Recognition and Measurement Property, plant and equipment, is stated at acquisition cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Cost of acquisition or construction of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes net of trade discounts, rebates and any directly attributable cost of bringing the item to its working condition for its intended use, including relevant borrowing costs and any expected costs of decommissioning.
Property, plant and equipment acquired in a business combination are recognised at their carrying value at the acquisition date.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance cost are charged to the statement of profit and loss during the period in which they are incurred.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
Material items such as spare parts, stand-by equipment and service equipment are classified as property, plant and equipment when they meet the definition of property, plant and equipment as specified in Ind AS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment.
306Property, plant and equipment which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as ‘Capital work-in-progress’. Advances paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date is classified as capital advances under ‘Other Non-Current Assets’.
Capital work-in-progress included in non-current assets comprises of direct costs, related incidental expenses and attributable interest. Capital work-in-progress are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use.
De-recognition An item of property, plant and equipment, is de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss.
c) Intangible Assets Recognition and Measurement Intangible assets such as marketing intangibles, trademarks, technical know-how, brands, customer relationship, computer software, product related intangibles, distribution network and non – compete rights acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Further, payments to third parties for in- licensed products, generally take the form of up-front and milestones payments and are capitalised following a cost accumulation approach to variable payments (milestones) when receipt of economic benefits out of the separately purchased transaction is considered to be probable. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Subsequent expenditures are capitalised only when they increase the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which they relate.
De-recognition Intangible assets are de-recognised either on their disposal or where no future economic benefits are expected from their use. Losses arising on such de-recognition are recorded in the profit or loss and are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any and the carrying amount of respective intangible assets as on the date of de-recognition.
d) Inventories Inventories majorly comprise raw materials, which is fine gold, diamond, alloy, etc., stock-in-trade and finished goods, which consists of Jewellery, which are measured at the lower of Cost and Net Realizable Value
(NRV).
The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, duties and taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities), costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined using the First-in, First-out (FIFO) method.
307NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Raw materials and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net realisable value.
e) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and cash at bank including fixed deposit with original maturity period of three months or less and short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and have no lien marked against them.
f) Financial Instruments A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial Assets Classification Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), or fair value through profit or loss. The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them.
Initial recognition and measurement All financial assets excluding trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, in which case they are recognised at fair value. The Group’s trade receivables do not contain any significant financing component and hence are measured at the transaction price measured under Ind AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”.
Subsequent Measurement Financial assets carried at amortised cost A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset for collecting contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
308After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in other income in the Statement of Profit or Loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss.
Financial assets carried at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets and the contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI). However, the Group recognizes interest income, impairment losses and reversals in the Profit and Loss. On de- recognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to Profit and Loss. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI asset is reported as interest income using the EIR method.
Equity instruments, except for the ones held for trading, could also be classified as at FVTOCI, if the Group makes an irrevocable election to do so at the time of initial recognition. Such election is made on instrument- to-instrument basis. In case of equity instruments classified as at FVTOCI, all the fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognised in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Group may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. The Group has designated certain equity instruments as at FVTOCI.
Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) A financial asset which is not categorized as at amortised cost or as FVTOCI, is classified and subsequently measured as at FVTPL.
As per the requirements of Ind AS 109 - “Financial Instruments”, all investments in equity instruments and contracts on those instruments are to be measured at FVTPL unless designated at FVTOCI. However, there might be situations where cost may be an appropriate estimate of fair value. That may be the case if insufficient information is available to measure fair value, or if there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements and cost represents the best estimate of fair value within that range.
In addition, the Group may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘accounting mismatch’).
309De-recognition A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset) is primarily de-recognised (i.e., removed from the Group’s balance sheet) when: • The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or • The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
(b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement. In that case, the Group also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.
On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in OCI and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss if such gain or loss would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset.
Financial Liabilities Classification Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financial liabilities specifically classified and subsequently measured as at fair value through profit and loss.
Initial recognition and measurement The Group initially measures a financial liability at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.
Subsequent measurement Financial liabilities carried at amortised cost The Group measures its financial liabilities at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts, estimated future cash payments (including all fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the amortised cost on initial recognition.
The interest expense (calculated based on effective interest method) and any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
310Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or is a derivative (except for effective hedge) or are designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Gains or losses, including any interest expense on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
De-recognition A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Offsetting of financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the restated Statement of Assets and Liabilities if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
g) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
h) Contingent Assets & Liabilities Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. The Group does recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.
Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements. However, contingent assets are assessed continually and if it is virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and related income are recognised in the period in which the change occurs.
311i) Taxes Income tax expense comprises of current tax expense and deferred tax expense/benefit. Current and deferred taxes are recognised in the statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Current Tax Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the year as determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable income tax law of the respective jurisdiction. The current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred Tax Deferred tax is recognised using the Balance Sheet approach on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
The Group recognises deferred tax liability for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except to the extent that both of the following conditions are satisfied:
• When the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference; and • It is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities.
312j) Employee Benefit Expenses Short-Term Employee Benefits All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short- term employee benefits and are measured on undiscounted basis. Benefits such as salaries, wages, bonus, incentives etc. and the expected cost of ex gratia are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Post-Employment Benefits Defined Contribution Plan Defined Contribution Plans (PF & ESIC) Retirement benefit in the form of Provident Fund (PF) and Employee State Insurance (ESIC) are defined contribution schemes. The Group has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the respective funds. The Group recognizes contribution payable to the provident fund and ESIC scheme as an expenditure, when an employee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid.
Defined Benefit Plans Gratuity Obligations – Unfunded The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and the tenure of employment with the Group.
• Measurement: The Group’s liability is actuarially determined, using the Projected Unit Credit Method, at the end of each reporting period. • Unfunded Status: As the Gratuity plan is unfunded, the liability recognized in the Balance Sheet represents the Present Value of the Defined Benefit Obligation without deduction of any plan assets.
• P&L Recognition: Current service cost, past service cost and net interest cost are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. • OCI Recognition: Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses (arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions), are recognized immediately in the Balance Sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to Retained Earnings through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to Statement of Profit and Loss in subsequent periods.
k) Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Group applies the five-step model prescribed under Ind AS 115, involving the identification 313of contracts, performance obligations, determination of transaction price, allocation of price, and recognition of revenue upon satisfaction of obligations.
Revenue from the sale of gold, silver, diamond jewellery, and bullion is recognized at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer. Control is transferred upon shipment or delivery to the customer, depending on the specific contractual terms, and when the customer has accepted the goods and the risks of ownership have passed.
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts, and volume rebates. Amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as Goods and Services Tax
(GST), are excluded from revenue.
When goods are sold in exchange for old gold (non-cash consideration), revenue is measured at the fair value of the goods sold (or the fair value of the old gold received if more clearly evident).
For contracts that permit the customer to return an item, revenue is recognized to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. A refund liability and an asset for the right to recover products are recognized for expected returns.
Revenue from manufacturing services such as making charges, job work income etc. is recognized when the service is completed and the finished goods are delivered to the customer, as this represents the transfer of the benefit of the service.
l) Other Income Interest Income Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Other Income (Other than Interest) Other Non-Operating Income is recognized on an accrual basis when the right to receive payment is established and the amount of income can be measured reliably. m) Finance Costs General and specific borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of such asset till such time the asset is ready for its intended use and borrowing cost are being incurred. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period they are incurred.
314Borrowing cost includes interest expense, amortisation of discounts and ancillary costs incurred in connection with borrowing of funds. Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
n) Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation Depreciation on property, plant and equipment (other than freehold land) is calculated on pro-rata on the WDV method based on the useful life of the assets as indicated under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 except for certain assets where management believes and based on the technical evaluation and assessment that the useful lives adopted by it best represent the period over which an asset is expected to be available for use.
Freehold land has an unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated.
Depreciation on additions is provided on a pro – rata basis from the month of installation or acquisition and in case of projects from the date of commencement of commercial production. Depreciation on deductions / disposals is provided on a pro-rata basis up to the month preceding the month of deduction / disposals.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and, if expectations differ from previous estimates, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate and adjusted prospectively.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Property, plant and equipment Useful Life Office Equipments 3 to 5 years Plant and Equipment 15 years Furniture and Fixtures 10 years Vehicles 8 years Computer 3 years Amortisation The Group amortises intangible assets with a finite useful life using the SLM method or WDV method based
on the pattern over which their economic benefits accrue to the Group over the following useful lives:
Intangible Asset Useful Life Software 3 to 10 years Trademark 7 years Website 10 years 315The amortisation period and the amortisation method for intangible assets with a finite useful life are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite life is recognised in statement of profit and loss under the head depreciation, impairment and amortisation expense. o) Impairment Impairment of Financial Assets In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Group applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure: • Financial assets that are measured at amortised cost • Financial assets that are measured at FVTOCI • Trade or other contractual receivables resulting from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115 The Group follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on Trade or other contractual receivables resulting from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115. This approach doesn’t require the Group to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECL at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.
The Group follows ‘general approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance, on other financial assets, wherein the Group provides for 12-month ECL on ‘Low Credit Risk’ financial assets and lifetime time ECL on ‘Moderate Credit Risk’ and ‘High Credit Risk’ financial assets.
If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the financial asset improves such that there is no longer a significant credit risk, then the entity reverts to recognising impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Group in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original EIR. When estimating the cash flows, an entity is required to consider:
• All contractual terms of the financial instrument (including prepayment, extension, call and similar options) over the expected life of the financial instrument. However, in rare cases when the expected life of the financial instrument cannot be estimated reliably, then the entity is required to use the remaining contractual term of the financial instrument.
• Cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms. • Financial assets measured as at amortised cost, contractual revenue receivables and lease receivables: ECL is presented as an allowance, i.e., as an integral part of the measurement of those assets in the restated 316Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The allowance reduces the net carrying amount. Until the asset meets write-off criteria, the Group does not reduce impairment allowance from the gross carrying amount.
Impairment of Non-Financial Assets The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that are not yet available for use, an impairment test is performed at each reporting date.
An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or the cash-generating unit. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples or other available fair value indicators.
For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the “cash-generating unit”).
The goodwill acquired in a business combination is, for the purpose of impairment testing, allocated to cash- generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss if the estimated recoverable amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit is lower than it’s carrying amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro-rata basis.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
Goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate is not recognised separately and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the entire amount of the investment in an associate is tested for impairment as a single asset when there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate may be impaired.
317p) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The average weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented is adjusted for events, such as bonus shares, other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
q) Exceptional Items An item of income or expense which by its size, type or incidence requires disclosure in order to improve an understanding of the performance of the Group is treated as an exceptional item and the same is disclosed in statement of profit and loss and in the notes forming part of the special purpose financial statements.
r) Leases:
As a Lessee At commencement or on modification of a contract that contains the lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone prices.
The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of- use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option. In that case the right- of-use asset will be depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset, which is determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain re measurements of the lease liability.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, or if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group 's incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
318The Group determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various external financing sources and makes certain adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and the type of the asset leased.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: • fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments; • variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;
• amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and • the exercise price under a purchase option that the Group is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments in an optional renewal period if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties for early termination of a lease unless the Group is reasonably certain not to terminate early.
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is re measured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the Group changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised in-substance fixed lease payment. When the lease liability is re measured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets The Group has elected not to recognise right-of- use assets and lease liabilities for leases of low-value assets and short-term leases. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
As a Lessor Leases in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
s) Foreign currency translation:
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into respective functional currencies of Group Companies at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary items are measured at historical cost (translated using the exchange rates at the transaction date), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value which are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the translation are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and loss except for foreign currency exchange differences arising from the translation of the qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent that the hedges are effective.

A. Accounting classification and fair value measurement:
Thefairvalueoffinancialassetsandliabilitiesareincludedattheamountatwhichtheinstrumentcouldbeexchangedinacurrenttransactionbetweenwillingparties,other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
Thecarryingamountoftradereceivable,tradepayable,loans,cashand cashequivalents,otherbankbalancesand otherreceivables asatMarch31, 2026,March 31,2025, and March 31, 2024 are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to their short-term nature.
Financial Instruments with fixed and variable interest rates are evaluated by the Group based on parameters such as interest rate and individual credit worthiness of the counterparty. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken to account for the expected losses of these receivables.
Fair value hierarchy
The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable and consists of following:
Level 1 -Categoryincludesfinancial assetsand liabilities,thatare measured inwhole or in significantpart by reference topublished quotedprice (unadjusted)in an active market.
Level 2 -Categoryincludesfinancial assetsand liabilitiesmeasured using avaluationtechniquebased onassumptionsthatare supportedbypricesfrom observablecurrent market transactions. These include assets and liabilities for which pricing is obtained via pricing services, but where prices have not been determined in an active market, financial assets with fair values based on broker quotes and assets that are valued using the Group's own valuation models whereby the material assumptions are market observable. The majority of Group’s over-the-counter derivatives and several other instruments not traded in active markets fall within this category.
Level 3 - Category includes financial assets and liabilities measured using valuation techniques based on non market observable inputs. This means that fair values are determinedinwholeorinpartusingavaluationmodelbasedonassumptionsthatareneithersupportedbypricesfromobservablecurrentmarkettransactionsinthesame instrument nor are they based on available market data. However, the fair value measurement objective remains the same, that is, to estimate an exit price from the perspective of the Group. The main asset classes in this category are unlisted equity investments as well as unlisted funds.

On the transition date (April 01, 2023), the unamortized balance of preliminary expenses has been written off directly againstOpeningRetainedEarnings.Consequently,theamortizationexpensechargedinthePreviousGAAPProfit&Lossfor the yearsended March31, 2025 andMarch31, 2024 havebeenreversed (added back toprofit),as the asset wasalready eliminated on the transition date.

The difference between the nominal value of the deposit and its fair value is treated as prepaid rent and included in the cost of the Right-of-Use Asset. Subsequently, the deposit is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with notional interest income recognized over the lease term to accrete the balance to its refundable value upon maturity.
(c) EmployeeBenefitExpenses(Gratuity): UnderthePreviousGAAP,theGrouphadnotrecognisedanyprovisionforgratuity.
Upon transition to Ind AS, gratuity has been recognised as a defined benefit obligation in accordance with Ind AS 19.
Accordingly,thegratuityliabilitypertainingtotheperioduptoApril01,2023hasbeenrecognisedbyadjustingtheOpening Retained Earnings in the Opening Ind AS Balance Sheet.
Under Previous GAAP, the entire gratuity expense, including actuarial gains and losses, was recognized in the Restated ConsolidatedStatementofProfitandLoss.UnderIndAS19EmployeeBenefits,remeasurements(comprisingactuarialgains and losses) are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent years.
Accordingly, the earlier recognised gratuity expense was adjusted for re-classification of interest cost and acturial adjustment component. This adjustment results in an increase in the reported net profit but has no impact on total comprehensive income.
(d) Deferred Tax Adjustments : Corresponding to aforesaid changes, changes were also made to deferred tax asset / liability recognised under Previous GAAP.

Business Overview We are engaged in the design, manufacturing and sale of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery in India, operating through an integrated business model comprising (i) business-to-business (“B2B”) manufacturing and distribution to organized retailers, standalone retailers and wholesalers, to support their inventory and design requirements; and (ii) direct-to-consumer (“D2C”) omnichannel retail operations through our subsidiary, Ayaani Diamonds and Jewellery Private Limited (“Ayaani”). Our operations span multiple stages of the jewellery value chain, including procurement and management of raw materials, product design, manufacturing, quality control, distribution, branded retail and direct-to-consumer sales.
We offer a range of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery products across categories such as rings, earrings, pendants, bracelets, mangalsutras, nose pins, necklaces, cufflings and bangles, across daily wear, occasion-based, men’s and customized segments. While our product portfolio spans multiple price points and categories, we have strategically focused on the lightweight, affordable lab grown diamond-studded gold jewellery segment which caters to the growing demand for affordable luxury and daily-wear jewellery particularly among younger consumers.
As per CareEdge Report, lab-grown diamond are diamonds that are created in laboratories using advanced technological processes that replicate the natural conditions under which diamonds form beneath the earth’s surface. lab-grown diamonds have the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as mined diamonds. They are made of pure carbon, have identical crystal structures, and display the same sparkle, hardness, and durability as that of natural mined diamonds. From a visual and structural standpoint, jewellery made with lab-grown diamond is indistinguishable from jewellery made with natural diamonds, even to trained eyes, unless examined with specialized equipment. For details, see “Industry Overview – Lab-Grown Diamond Jewellery Industry – Overview of the LGD Jewellery Industry in India” on page 184.
Our prominent B2B customers include established and organised jewellery retailers such as ‘GIVA’, ‘Palmonas’, ‘ONYA’, and ‘Ladia Diamonds’, among others. We also cater standalone retailers and wholesalers under B2B vertical. We supply lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to such customers based on designs developed by us and customised to their specific requirements, including purity standards, weight specifications, design preferences and finishing parameters. Our association with such customers is supported by our ability to offer design-led product development, consistent product quality and timely execution of orders.
We commenced our operation from July, 2022 onwards as a B2B manufacturer and supplier of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to retailers. Our B2B operations constitute a key component of our business and involve 408the design, manufacture and supply of lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery to a network of jewellery retailers across 18 states and 2 union territory in India as well as to overseas customers in United Arab Emirates, Australia, Canada, Taiwan and Kenya. Our B2B supply operations are supported by our manufacturing facility located in Surat, Gujarat, which is a key hub for diamond processing and manufacturing in India, as well as our varied design portfolio across our product range. Our manufacturing processes include in-house designing, prototyping and production, enabling control over product quality, cost efficiencies and lead times, and allowing us to cater to both standardized and customized retailer requirements. For details, see “Our Business – Our Manufacturing Facility” on page 223.
In July 2025, we expanded our business model through the acquisition of Ayaani, which was previously one of our key B2B customers for details see “Our Business – Customers – Set out below are the details of our top ten customers for the period indicated herein below” on page 227 , a D2C lab-grown diamond studded gold jewellery brand with a digital presence and retail footprints. For details relating to the said acquisition, see “History and Certain Corporate Matters - Details regarding material acquisitions or divestments of business/undertakings, mergers, amalgamation, any revaluation of assets, etc., in the last 10 years” on page 250. This acquisition enabled us to complement our manufacturing operations with a consumer-facing platform and strengthen our presence across B2B supply and retail channels.

413SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS SUBSEQUENT TO THE LAST FINANCIAL PERIOD In the opinion of the Board of Directors of our Company, since the date of the last financial statements disclosed in this Prospectus, there have not arisen any circumstance that materially or adversely affect or are likely to affect the business activities or profitability of our Company or the value of its assets or its ability to pay its material liabilities within the next twelve months.
FACTORS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Our business is subjected to various risks and uncertainties, including those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” on page 25. Our results of operations and financial conditions are affected by numerous factors including
the following:
Customer Concentration and Order Dependency Our revenue from operations is significantly driven by a limited number of customers under our B2B segment, with our top 10 customers contributing 55.49%, 76.68% and 84.24% of our revenue from operations on consolidation basis during the Fiscal 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Our business is largely order-driven, and we do not typically enter into long-term contracts with our customers.
Accordingly, our revenues are dependent on the volume, frequency and timing of orders placed by such customers, which in turn are influenced by their inventory cycles, retail expansion strategies, merchandising plans and end- consumer demand.
Further, the high concentration of revenues among a limited number of customers exposes us to risks associated with changes in sourcing strategies, vendor rationalisation or financial position of such customers. Any reduction in orders from key customers or inability to expand and diversify our customer base may result in volatility in revenues and adversely affect our financial performance.
Raw Material Price Volatility Our cost of materials consumed constitutes a significant portion of our total expenses and is primarily driven by prices of gold bullion and lab-grown diamonds, which together accounted for 90.77%, 88.38% and 95.14% of our total purchases during the respective periods on standalone basis.
Prices of gold and lab-grown diamonds are subject to volatility due to various factors including global demand- supply dynamics, inflation, currency movements and macroeconomic conditions. Any increase in raw material prices directly impacts our cost structure.
While we generally determine product pricing based on prevailing market prices, there may be a time lag between procurement of raw materials and sale of finished goods, which may expose us to price fluctuations. Further, competitive pressures may limit our ability to fully pass on increases in input costs to customers, which may result in margin compression and impact profitability.
Working Capital Intensity Our business is working capital intensive, requiring significant investment in inventories and trade receivables to support our operations. Our working capital requirements increased from ₹67.65 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹449.46 million as of Fiscal 2026 on standalone basis, in line with the scale-up of our operations.
We procure raw materials in advance of production, while sales are made on credit terms, resulting in a mismatch between cash outflows and inflows. Our working capital requirements are influenced by factors such as raw material prices, inventory levels, scale of operations and credit terms extended to customers.
Any increase in inventory holding levels or receivable cycles may result in higher working capital deployment, increased reliance on external financing and higher finance costs, which may adversely affect our results of operations.
414Receivables Cycle and Collections Our trade receivables have increased from ₹40.64 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹87.52 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹160.64 million as of Fiscal 2026, with receivable days increasing from 16 days in Fiscal 2024 to 22 days in the Fiscal 2026, on standalone basis.
Our cash flows and liquidity position are dependent on timely realisation of receivables. Any delay in collections or deterioration in the credit profile of customers may result in higher funds being locked in receivables.
Further, given our customer concentration, any delay or default by key customers may have a disproportionate impact on our working capital position. Sustained elongation of receivable cycles may necessitate additional borrowings and impact profitability.
Demand and Consumption Trends Demand for our products is linked to discretionary consumer spending and is influenced by macroeconomic conditions, income levels, consumer preferences and pricing trends.
Our revenue from operations increased from ₹536.55 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹968.45 million in Fiscal 2025, and stood at ₹2,028.94 million in the Fiscal 2026 on restated consolidate financial information, reflecting growth in demand for our products.
However, any adverse changes in economic conditions, reduction in discretionary spending or shift in consumer preferences, including acceptance of lab-grown diamond jewellery, may impact demand. Additionally, fluctuations in gold prices may influence purchasing behaviour and affect sales volumes.
Geographic Revenue Concentration A significant portion of our revenue is derived from certain key states, including Gujarat, Karnataka, Telangana, Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra, which collectively contributed 85.03%, 92.71% and 94.42% of our revenue during the respective periods.
Our performance is therefore influenced by regional demand patterns, economic conditions and retail activity in these markets. Any adverse developments such as economic slowdown, changes in consumer behaviour or competitive intensity in these regions may impact our revenues.
Further, our revenues are predominantly derived from domestic markets, contributing 97.44%, 99.93% and
99.15% of total revenue during the respective periods, indicating limited geographic diversification.
Supplier Concentration Our procurement of raw materials is concentrated among a limited number of suppliers, with our top 10 suppliers accounting for 86.16%, 94.31% and 87.05% of total purchases during the respective periods.
Our operations depend on timely availability of gold and lab-grown diamonds from such suppliers at competitive prices. Any disruption in supply, adverse changes in pricing or credit terms, or inability to source materials may impact our production schedules and cost structure.
Further, dependence on a limited supplier base may affect our bargaining power and expose us to procurement- related risks, which may impact our margins and operational efficiency.
Seasonal Demand Patterns 415Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations, with higher demand typically observed during festive and wedding seasons.
For instance, approximately 56.28% of our revenue in Fiscal 2026 was generated in the second half of the fiscal year. As a result, our financial performance is dependent on demand during peak periods.
Any disruption during such periods, including adverse economic conditions, fluctuations in gold prices or supply chain constraints, may have a disproportionate impact on our annual revenues and profitability. Effective demand forecasting and inventory planning are critical to optimising performance during these periods.
Product Mix and Design Alignment Our business is design-led, and our ability to align our product offerings with evolving consumer preferences is critical to our success.
Product returns increased from ₹32.48 million in Fiscal 2024 to ₹171.76 million in Fiscal 2025 and ₹246.69 million in the Fiscal 2026 on standalone basis, with returns accounting for 11.91% of gross sales in Fiscal 2026.
Any mismatch between product offerings and customer preferences may result in increased returns, accumulation of slow-moving inventory and requirement for discounts or rework. This may adversely impact our margins and overall financial performance.
Capacity Utilisation and Operating Efficiency However, capacity utilisation remained at 32.00% in Fiscal 2025 and 45.21% for the Fiscal 2026. Our profitability is influenced by our ability to improve capacity utilisation and achieve operational efficiencies.
Lower utilisation levels may result in under-absorption of fixed costs, leading to higher per-unit costs. Conversely, improved utilisation and efficient production planning can support better margins and overall financial performance.

The Group has transitioned to Ind AS during the year ended March 31, 2026 and accordingly will prepare its first complete Ind AS financials for the year ended March 31, 2026. The Group has thereby prepared its audited Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2026 (“the March 2026 audited Financial Statements”) in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards as specified under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 prescribed by Section 133 of the Act, considering April 01, 2024 as transition date for the statutory requirements under section 129 of the Act. Such financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on September 01, 2026.
However, for the purpose of the March 2026 Special Purpose Consolidated Financial Statements, April 01, 2023, has been considered as the transition date. Accordingly, the Group has applied the accounting policy choices (both mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions availed as per Ind AS 101) as on April 01, 2023 for these Special Purpose Financial Statements. Refer note 47 of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information for information on how the Group has adopted Ind AS.
The Special Purpose Financial Statements have been prepared solely for the purpose of preparation of Restated Consolidated Financial Information for inclusion in offer documents in relation to the proposed IPO, which requires financial statements of all the periods included. As such, these Special Purpose Financial Statements are not suitable for any other purpose other than for the purpose of preparation of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
The Restated Consolidated Financial Information: a) have been prepared after incorporating adjustments for the changes in accounting policies, material errors and regrouping/reclassifications retrospectively in the audited financials for 417years / period ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, to reflect the same accounting treatment as per the accounting policy and grouping/classifications followed as at and for the year ended March 31, 2026, as applicable.
b) do not require any adjustment for modification as there is no modification in the underlying audit reports. c) do not reflect the effects of events that occurred subsequent to the respective dates of board meeting for adoption of the audited financial statements of the Group based upon which special purpose financial statements have been prepared.
2.1. Statement of Compliance with Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind AS”) The Restated Consolidated Financial Information comply in all material aspects with Ind AS notified under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and other relevant provisions of the Act.
2.2. Statement of Consistency of Accounting Policy The accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods presented in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information. Change in accounting policies is done only in cases where required or permitted by Ind AS 101 – Ind AS on First Time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards. Refer to note 47 for information on how the Group has adopted Ind AS.
2.3. Functional and Presentation Currency and rounding of amounts The Restated Consolidated Financial Information is presented in Indian Rupee (Rs.) which is also the functional currency of the Group. All amounts disclosed in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information and notes have been rounded-off to the nearest million with two decimals thereof as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.
All the amounts which are less than Rs. 5,000/- are reported in Restated Consolidated Financial Information as Rs. 0.00/- on account of rounding off. Further, casting differences to the extent of Rs.
0.01/- would also arise on account of rounding off at instances.
2.4. Basis of Measurement The Restated Consolidated Financial Information has been prepared on an accrual basis under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value in accordance with Ind AS.
• Financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value or at amortised cost depending on classification; • Derivative financial instruments and contingent consideration is measured at fair value;
• Assets held for sale – measured at fair value less cost to sell; • Defined benefit plans – plan assets measured at fair value; and • Lease liability and Right-of-use assets – measured at fair value;
A historical cost is a measure of value used for accounting in which the price of an asset on the balance sheet is based on its historical cost, it is generally fair value of consideration given in exchange for goods and services at the time of transaction or original cost when acquired by the Group.
Fair value is the price that is likely to be received on sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Fair value measurements under Ind AS are categorised into fair value hierarchy based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the 418fair value measurement in its entirety, which are prescribed as follows:
• Level one quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can access on measurement data; • Level two inputs, other than quoted price is included within level one, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and • Level three where observable inputs are used for the valuation of assets or liabilities.
2.5. Basis of Consolidation The Restated Consolidated Financial Information relate to the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. The financial statements of the subsidiaries used for the purpose of consolidation are drawn up to the same reporting date as that of the Group.
The Restated Consolidated Financial Information have been prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances and are presented to the extent possible, in the same manner, as the Parent Company’s standalone financial statements. The Restated Consolidated
Financial Information have been prepared on the following basis:
Investment in subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The net assets and results of acquired businesses are included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information from their respective dates of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control. The results of disposed businesses are included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information up to their date of disposal, being the date control ceases. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in these Restated Consolidated Financial Information from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
The excess of cost to the Group of its investment in subsidiaries, on the acquisition dates over and above the Group’s share of equity in the subsidiaries, is recognised as ‘Goodwill on Consolidation’ in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information. The said Goodwill is not amortised, however, it is tested for impairment at each Balance Sheet date and the impairment loss, if any, is provided for. On the other hand, where the share of equity in subsidiaries as on the date of investment is in excess of cost of investments of the Group, it is recognised as ‘Capital Reserve’ and shown under the head ‘Other Equity’ in the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
Non-controlling interests represent that part of the total comprehensive income and net assets of subsidiaries attributable to the interest which is not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Parent Company.
Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries is identified and presented in the consolidated Balance Sheet separately within equity. Non-controlling interests are valued based on the proportion of net assets of the acquired company at the date of acquisition.
Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries consists of: • The amount of equity attributable to non-controlling interests at the date on which investment in a subsidiary is made; and • The non- controlling interests share of movements in equity since the date parent subsidiary relationship came into existence.
The Restated Consolidated Financial Information of the Group have been combined on a line-by-line basis by adding together the book values of like items of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, after fully eliminating intra-group balances and intra-group transactions and resulting unrealised profits.
Unrealised losses resulting from intra-group transactions are eliminated unless cost cannot be recovered.
The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment 419between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognised within equity.
The profit and other comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling interest of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of profit and loss and consolidated statement of changes in equity.
Upon loss of control, the Group de-recognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non- controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in the consolidated profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is accounted for as an equity accounted investee or as a FVTOCI or FVTPL financial asset, depending on the level of influence retained.
2.6. Key Accounting Estimates and Judgements The preparation of Restated Consolidated Financial Information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosures relating to contingent liabilities. The management believes that the estimates used in preparation of the Restated Consolidated Financial Information are prudent and reasonable.
Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Following are the critical judgements made by the Management while compiling the Restated
Consolidated Financial Information of the Group: a) Income Taxes Significant judgements are involved in determining the provision for income taxes including judgement on whether tax positions are probable of being sustained in tax assessments. A tax assessment can involve complex issues, which can only be resolved over extended time periods. The recognition of taxes that are subject to certain legal or economic limits or uncertainties is assessed individually by Management based on the specific facts and circumstances.
In assessing the realisability of deferred tax assets, Management considers whether some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realised. The ultimate realisation of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible, Management believes that the Group will realise the benefits of those deductible differences.
b) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities The Group exercises judgement in determining if a particular matter is possible, probable or remote. The Group also exercises judgement in measuring and recognising provisions and the exposures to contingent liabilities related to pending litigation or other outstanding claims subject to negotiated settlement, mediation, government regulation, as well as other contingent liabilities. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that the outflow of resources would be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.
c) Classification of Leases The Group evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116.
Identification of a lease requires significant judgement. The Group uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate. The Group 420determines the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that options; and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Group is reasonably certain not to exercise that options.
In assessing whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease, it considers all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the Group to exercise the option to extend the lease, or not to exercise the option to terminate the lease. The Group revises the lease term if there is a change in the non-cancellable period of a lease. The discount rate is generally based on the incremental borrowing rate specific to the lease being evaluated or for a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.
Following are the critical estimates made by the Management while compiling the Restated
Consolidated Financial Information of the Group: a) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The useful lives and residual values of the Group's assets are determined by the Management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.
b) Expected credit loss In accordance with Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments, the Group applies ECL model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
For this purpose, the Group follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on the trade receivable balances, whereas it uses ‘general approach’ for other receivables. The application of simplified approach requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date.
As a practical expedient, the Group uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed.
In case of other assets, the Group determines if there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial asset since initial recognition. If the credit risk of such assets has not increased significantly, an amount equal to twelve months ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, an amount equal to lifetime ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance.
c) Accounting for defined benefit plans In accounting for post-retirement benefits, several statistical and other factors that attempt to anticipate future events are used to calculate plan expenses and liabilities. These factors include discount rate assumptions and rate of future compensation increases. To estimate these factors, actuarial consultants also use estimates such as withdrawal, turnover and mortality rates which require significant judgement.
The actuarial assumptions used by the Group may differ materially from actual results in future periods due to changing market and economic conditions, regulatory events, judicial rulings, higher or lower withdrawal rates, or longer or shorter participant life spans.
d) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets 421An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. To determine the recoverable amount, management estimates expected future cash flows from each asset or cash-generating unit and determines a suitable interest rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. In the process of measuring expected future cash flows, management makes assumptions about future operating results. These assumptions relate to future events and circumstances. The actual results may vary and may cause significant adjustments to the Group’s assets.
e) Fair value of Financial Instruments Management uses valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of financial instruments where active market quotes are not available. Details of the assumptions used are given in the notes regarding financial assets and liabilities. In applying the valuation techniques, management makes maximum use of market inputs and uses estimates and assumptions that are, as far as possible, consistent with observable data that market participants would use in pricing the instrument. Where applicable data is not observable, management uses its best estimate about the assumptions that market participants would make. These estimates may vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an arm’s length transaction at the reporting date.
2.7. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES a) Current and Non-Current classification The Group presents assets and liabilities in the restated statement of assets and liabilities based on current / non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when it is: • Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle, • Held primarily for the purpose of trading, • Expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period, or • Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: • It is Expected to be settled in normal operating cycle, • It is held primarily for the purpose of trading, • It is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period, or • There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
The terms of the liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Group has determined its operating cycle, as explained in schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013, as twelve months, having regard to the nature of business being carried out by the Group. The same has been considered for classifying assets and liabilities as current and non-current while preparing the Restated Consolidated Financial Information.
422b) Property, Plant and Equipment and Capital work-in-progress Recognition and Measurement Property, plant and equipment, is stated at acquisition cost net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Cost of acquisition or construction of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes net of trade discounts, rebates and any directly attributable cost of bringing the item to its working condition for its intended use, including relevant borrowing costs and any expected costs of decommissioning.
Property, plant and equipment acquired in a business combination are recognised at their carrying value at the acquisition date.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance cost are charged to the statement of profit and loss during the period in which they are incurred.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
Material items such as spare parts, stand-by equipment and service equipment are classified as property, plant and equipment when they meet the definition of property, plant and equipment as specified in Ind AS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment.
Property, plant and equipment which are not ready for intended use as on the date of Balance Sheet are disclosed as ‘Capital work-in-progress’. Advances paid towards the acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each balance sheet date is classified as capital advances under ‘Other Non- Current Assets’.
Capital work-in-progress included in non-current assets comprises of direct costs, related incidental expenses and attributable interest. Capital work-in-progress are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use.
De-recognition An item of property, plant and equipment, is de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss.
c) Intangible Assets Recognition and Measurement Intangible assets such as marketing intangibles, trademarks, technical know-how, brands, customer relationship, computer software, product related intangibles, distribution network and non – compete rights acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Further, payments to third parties for in-licensed products, generally take the form of up-front and milestones payments and are capitalised following a cost accumulation approach to variable payments (milestones) when receipt of economic benefits out of the separately purchased transaction is considered to be probable. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Subsequent expenditures are capitalised only when they increase the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which they relate.
De-recognition 423Intangible assets are de-recognised either on their disposal or where no future economic benefits are expected from their use. Losses arising on such de-recognition are recorded in the profit or loss and are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any and the carrying amount of respective intangible assets as on the date of de-recognition.
d) Inventories Inventories majorly comprise raw materials, which is fine gold, diamond, alloy, etc., stock-in-trade and finished goods, which consists of Jewellery, which are measured at the lower of Cost and Net Realizable Value (NRV).
The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, duties and taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from tax authorities), costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined using the First-in, First-out (FIFO) method.
NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Raw materials and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net realisable value.
e) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and cash at bank including fixed deposit with original maturity period of three months or less and short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and have no lien marked against them.
f) Financial Instruments A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial Assets Classification Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), or fair value through profit or loss. The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them.
Initial recognition and measurement All financial assets excluding trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, in which case they are recognised at fair value. The Group’s trade receivables do not contain any significant financing component and hence are measured at the transaction price measured under Ind AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”.
Subsequent Measurement Financial assets carried at amortised cost 424A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset for collecting contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in other income in the Statement of Profit or Loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss.
Financial assets carried at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets and the contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI).
However, the Group recognizes interest income, impairment losses and reversals in the Profit and Loss.
On de-recognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to Profit and Loss. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI asset is reported as interest income using the EIR method.
Equity instruments, except for the ones held for trading, could also be classified as at FVTOCI, if the Group makes an irrevocable election to do so at the time of initial recognition. Such election is made on instrument-to-instrument basis. In case of equity instruments classified as at FVTOCI, all the fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognised in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Group may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. The Group has designated certain equity instruments as at FVTOCI.
Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) A financial asset which is not categorized as at amortised cost or as FVTOCI, is classified and subsequently measured as at FVTPL.
As per the requirements of Ind AS 109 - “Financial Instruments”, all investments in equity instruments and contracts on those instruments are to be measured at FVTPL unless designated at FVTOCI. However, there might be situations where cost may be an appropriate estimate of fair value. That may be the case if insufficient information is available to measure fair value, or if there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements and cost represents the best estimate of fair value within that range.
In addition, the Group may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘accounting mismatch’).
De-recognition A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset) is primarily de-recognised (i.e., removed from the Group’s balance sheet) when: • The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or • The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all 425the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass- through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership.
When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement. In that case, the Group also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.
On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in OCI and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss if such gain or loss would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset.
Financial Liabilities Classification Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financial liabilities specifically classified and subsequently measured as at fair value through profit and loss.
Initial recognition and measurement The Group initially measures a financial liability at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial liability not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.
Subsequent measurement Financial liabilities carried at amortised cost The Group measures its financial liabilities at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts, estimated future cash payments (including all fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the amortised cost on initial recognition.
The interest expense (calculated based on effective interest method) and any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or is a derivative (except for effective hedge) or are designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Gains or losses, including any interest expense on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
De-recognition A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability.
The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Offsetting of financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the restated Statement 426of Assets and Liabilities if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
g) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
h) Contingent Assets & Liabilities Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. The Group does recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.
Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements. However, contingent assets are assessed continually and if it is virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and related income are recognised in the period in which the change occurs.
i) Taxes Income tax expense comprises of current tax expense and deferred tax expense/benefit. Current and deferred taxes are recognised in the statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Current Tax Current tax is the amount of tax payable on the taxable income for the year as determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable income tax law of the respective jurisdiction. The current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred Tax Deferred tax is recognised using the Balance Sheet approach on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or 427loss.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
The Group recognises deferred tax liability for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except to the extent that both of the following conditions are
satisfied: • When the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference; and • It is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities. j) Employee Benefit Expenses Short-Term Employee Benefits All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits and are measured on undiscounted basis. Benefits such as salaries, wages, bonus, incentives etc. and the expected cost of ex gratia are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Post-Employment Benefits Defined Contribution Plan Defined Contribution Plans (PF & ESIC) Retirement benefit in the form of Provident Fund (PF) and Employee State Insurance (ESIC) are defined contribution schemes. The Group has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the respective funds. The Group recognizes contribution payable to the provident fund and ESIC scheme as an expenditure, when an employee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid.
Defined Benefit Plans Gratuity Obligations – Unfunded The Group provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and the tenure of employment with the Group.
• Measurement: The Group’s liability is actuarially determined, using the Projected Unit Credit Method, at the end of each reporting period. • Unfunded Status: As the Gratuity plan is unfunded, the liability recognized in the Balance 428Sheet represents the Present Value of the Defined Benefit Obligation without deduction of any plan assets.
• P&L Recognition: Current service cost, past service cost and net interest cost are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. • OCI Recognition: Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses (arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions), are recognized immediately in the Balance Sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to Retained Earnings through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to Statement of Profit and Loss in subsequent periods.
k) Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Group applies the five-step model prescribed under Ind AS 115, involving the identification of contracts, performance obligations, determination of transaction price, allocation of price, and recognition of revenue upon satisfaction of obligations.
Revenue from the sale of gold, silver, diamond jewellery, and bullion is recognized at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer. Control is transferred upon shipment or delivery to the customer, depending on the specific contractual terms, and when the customer has accepted the goods and the risks of ownership have passed.
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts, and volume rebates. Amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as Goods and Services Tax (GST), are excluded from revenue.
When goods are sold in exchange for old gold (non-cash consideration), revenue is measured at the fair value of the goods sold (or the fair value of the old gold received if more clearly evident).
For contracts that permit the customer to return an item, revenue is recognized to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur.
A refund liability and an asset for the right to recover products are recognized for expected returns.
Revenue from manufacturing services such as making charges, job work income etc. is recognized when the service is completed and the finished goods are delivered to the customer, as this represents the transfer of the benefit of the service.
l) Other Income Interest Income Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Other Income (Other than Interest) Other Non-Operating Income is recognized on an accrual basis when the right to receive payment is established and the amount of income can be measured reliably. m) Finance Costs General and specific borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or production 429of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of such asset till such time the asset is ready for its intended use and borrowing cost are being incurred. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period they are incurred.
Borrowing cost includes interest expense, amortisation of discounts and ancillary costs incurred in connection with borrowing of funds. Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
n) Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation Depreciation on property, plant and equipment (other than freehold land) is calculated on pro-rata on the WDV method based on the useful life of the assets as indicated under Part C of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 except for certain assets where management believes and based on the technical evaluation and assessment that the useful lives adopted by it best represent the period over which an asset is expected to be available for use.
Freehold land has an unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated.
Depreciation on additions is provided on a pro – rata basis from the month of installation or acquisition and in case of projects from the date of commencement of commercial production. Depreciation on deductions / disposals is provided on a pro-rata basis up to the month preceding the month of deduction / disposals.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and, if expectations differ from previous estimates, the changes are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate and adjusted prospectively.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Property, plant and equipment Useful Life Office Equipments 3 to 5 years Plant and Equipment 15 years Furniture and Fixtures 10 years Vehicles 8 years Computer 3 years Amortisation The Group amortises intangible assets with a finite useful life using the SLM method or WDV method based on the pattern over which their economic benefits accrue to the Group over the following useful
lives:
Intangible Asset Useful Life Software 3 to 10 years Trademark 7 years Website 10 years The amortisation period and the amortisation method for intangible assets with a finite useful life are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite life is recognised in statement of profit and loss under the head depreciation, impairment and amortisation expense.
430o) Impairment Impairment of Financial Assets In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Group applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement
and recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure: • Financial assets that are measured at amortised cost • Financial assets that are measured at FVTOCI • Trade or other contractual receivables resulting from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115 The Group follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on Trade or other contractual receivables resulting from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115. This approach doesn’t require the Group to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECL at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.
The Group follows ‘general approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance, on other financial assets, wherein the Group provides for 12-month ECL on ‘Low Credit Risk’ financial assets and lifetime time ECL on ‘Moderate Credit Risk’ and ‘High Credit Risk’ financial assets.
If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the financial asset improves such that there is no longer a significant credit risk, then the entity reverts to recognising impairment loss allowance based on 12- month ECL.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Group in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original EIR. When estimating the cash flows, an entity is required to consider:
• All contractual terms of the financial instrument (including prepayment, extension, call and similar options) over the expected life of the financial instrument. However, in rare cases when the expected life of the financial instrument cannot be estimated reliably, then the entity is required to use the remaining contractual term of the financial instrument.
• Cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms. • Financial assets measured as at amortised cost, contractual revenue receivables and lease
receivables: ECL is presented as an allowance, i.e., as an integral part of the measurement of those assets in the restated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The allowance reduces the net carrying amount. Until the asset meets write-off criteria, the Group does not reduce impairment allowance from the gross carrying amount.
Impairment of Non-Financial Assets The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that are not yet available for use, an impairment test is performed at each reporting date.
An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of 431the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or the cash-generating unit. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples or other available fair value indicators.
For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the “cash-generating unit”).
The goodwill acquired in a business combination is, for the purpose of impairment testing, allocated to cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
An impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss if the estimated recoverable amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit is lower than it’s carrying amount. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro-rata basis.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a favourable change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
Goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate is not recognised separately and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the entire amount of the investment in an associate is tested for impairment as a single asset when there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate may be impaired.
p) Earnings per share Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The average weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented is adjusted for events, such as bonus shares, other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
q) Exceptional Items An item of income or expense which by its size, type or incidence requires disclosure in order to improve an understanding of the performance of the Group is treated as an exceptional item and the same is disclosed in statement of profit and loss and in the notes forming part of the special purpose financial statements.
r) Leases:
As a Lessee At commencement or on modification of a contract that contains the lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone prices.
432The Group 433ecognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option. In that case the right- of-use asset will be depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset, which is determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain re measurements of the lease liability.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, or if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group ‘s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
The Group determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various external financing sources and makes certain adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and the type of the asset leased.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: • fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments; • variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;
• amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and • the exercise price under a purchase option that the Group is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments in an optional renewal period if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties for early termination of a lease unless the Group is reasonably certain not to terminate early.
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is re measured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the Group changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised in-substance fixed lease payment. When the lease liability is re measured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets The Group has elected not to recognise right-of- use assets and lease liabilities for leases of low-value assets and short-term leases. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
As a Lessor Leases in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight- line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
s) Foreign currency translation:
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into respective functional currencies of Group 433Companies at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date.
Non-monetary items are measured at historical cost (translated using the exchange rates at the transaction date), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value which are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the translation are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and loss except for foreign currency exchange differences arising from the translation of the qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent that the hedges are effective.

The increase was primarily driven by higher sales volume of lab-grown diamond jewellery, supported by growing consumer preference for sustainable and cost-effective alternatives to natural diamonds.
Other Income Other income increased by 14333.33% from ₹0.03 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹4.33 million in Fiscal 2026, primarily due to gain on foreign currency transaction income in Fiscal 2026 as compared to Nil in Fiscal 2025 and gain on termination of lease of ₹1.03 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to Nil in Fiscal 2025.
Total Income Total income increased by 109.94%, from ₹968.48 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹2,033.27 million in Fiscal 2026.
This increase was primarily driven by significant growth in revenue from operations.
437Total Expenses Total expenses increased by 107.64%, from ₹849.54 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹1,764.01 million in Fiscal 2026,
primarily due to the following:.
Cost of Material Consumed Cost of materials consumed increased by 91.04%, from ₹876.74 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹1,674.92 million in Fiscal 2026, primarily due to higher procurement of raw materials including lab-grown diamonds, gold and other jewellery components in line with increased demand of our products.
Purchases of Stock-in-Trade Purchases of stock-in-trade increased to ₹65.32 million in Fiscal 2026 from ₹0.12 million in Fiscal 2025, primarily on account of the scale-up of trading operations at our Subsidiaries, which are consolidated in our Restated Consolidated Financial Information. Purchases during Fiscal 2026 comprised jewellery including making charges of ₹26.52 million and precious metals / bullion of ₹38.80 million.
Changes in Inventories of Finished Goods and Stock in trade Changes in Inventories of Finished Goods and Stock in trade increased by ₹64.73 million, from (₹94.40) million in Fiscal 2025 to (₹159.13) million in Fiscal 2026. The increase was primarily due to higher closing inventory levels of finished products and Stock in trade, maintained to support business growth and ensure timely fulfilment of expected demand.
Manufacturing Expenses Manufacturing expenses increased by 75.44%, from ₹44.62 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹78.28 million in Fiscal 2026, primarily due to increase in production activities in line with growth in operations. The increase was mainly on account of higher wages and salary, which stood at ₹47.39 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to ₹24.99 million in Fiscal 2025, along with an increase in certification and hallmarking charges which stood at ₹14.56 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to ₹9.51 million in Fiscal 2025, and other making charges which stood at ₹11.17 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to ₹7.48 million in Fiscal 2025.
Employee Benefit Expenses Employee benefit expenses increased by 445.21%, from ₹5.84 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹31.84 million in Fiscal 2026, primarily due to increase in salaries and wages (including bonus), which stood at ₹19.91 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to ₹4.66 million in Fiscal 2025 and increase in Director’s remuneration which stood at ₹7.33 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to ₹0.12 million in Fiscal 2025.
Finance Cost Finance costs increased by 210.85%, from ₹4.70 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹14.61 million in Fiscal 2026, primarily due to higher utilization of borrowings to support working capital requirements. The increase was mainly on account of higher interest expense on lease liabilities, which stood at ₹9.40 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to ₹0.57 million in Fiscal 2025.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by 381.75%, from ₹5.37 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹25.87 million in Fiscal 2026, primarily due to addition of plant and machinery and recognition of depreciation on right- of-use assets.
Other Expenses Other expenses increased by 393.13%, from ₹6.55 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹32.30 million in Fiscal 2026, primarily due to increase in selling and administrative expenses in line with expansion of operations. The increase 438was mainly on account of higher advertisement and business promotion expenses of ₹13.92 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to ₹2.12 million in Fiscal 2025, increase in website and software maintenance to ₹1.72 million in Fiscal 2026 from ₹0.03 million in Fiscal 2025, and recording of credit impairment losses of ₹1.69 million in Fiscal 2026 as compared to Nil in Fiscal 2025.
Profit Before Tax Profit before tax increased by 126.36%, from ₹118.94 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹269.23 million in Fiscal 2026.
The increase was primarily driven by strong growth in revenue from operations and improved operating leverage, partially offset by higher raw material and operating costs.
Tax Expenses Tax expenses increased by 118.80%, from ₹21.06 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹46.08 million in Fiscal 2026. The increase was mainly attributable to higher taxable income resulting from improved profitability during Fiscal
2026.
Profit After Tax Profit after tax increased by 127.98%, from ₹97.88 million in Fiscal 2025 to ₹223.15 million in Fiscal 2026. The increase was primarily due to significant growth in revenue and improved margins, reflecting the Company’s ability to scale its business while maintaining cost efficiencies.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risks Market risk Market Risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as currency rates, interest rates and equity prices, which will affect the Company's group income or the value of its holding or financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.
Currency Risk Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange relates primarily to the Company Group's operating activities (when revenue, expense or capital expenditure is denominated in foreign currency). The Company Group evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions and follows established risk management policies.
Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk can be either fair value interest rate risk or cash flow interest rate risk. Fair value interest rate risk is the risk of changes in fair values of fixed interest bearing financial assets or borrowings because of fluctuations in the interest rates if such assets/borrowings are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of floating interest bearing borrowings will fluctuate because of fluctuations in the interest rates.
The Company Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to its borrowings with floating interest rates.
Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company Group’s receivables from customers and investment securities. The Company Group establishes an allowance for credit losses and impairment that represents its estimate of expected losses in respect of trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and investments.
444Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company Group will face in meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company Group’s approach in managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities when due without incurring unacceptable losses. In doing this, management considers both normal and stressed conditions. The Company Group maintained a cautious liquidity strategy, with a positive cash balance throughout the year ended March 31, 2026, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024.
Cash flow from operating activities provides the funds to service the financial liabilities on a day-to-day basis.
The Company Group regularly monitors the rolling forecasts to ensure it has sufficient cash on an on-going basis to meet operational needs. The Company Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

A person, being a nominee, entitled to the Equity Shares by reason of the death of the original holder(s), shall be entitled to the same advantages to which he or she would be entitled if he or she were the registered holder of the Equity Share(s). Where the nominee is a minor, the holder(s) may make a nomination to appoint, in the prescribed manner, any person to become entitled to Equity Share(s) in the event of his or her death during the minority. A nomination shall stand rescinded upon a sale, transfer or alienation of Equity Share(s) by the person nominating.

As per the SEBI ICDR Regulations, the Equity Shares, on Allotment, shall be traded only in the dematerialised segment of the Stock Exchanges.
Investors must ensure that their PAN is linked with Aadhaar and are in compliance with the notification by the CBDT dated February 13, 2020, read with press releases dated June 25, 2021, and September 17,

Bidders should note that the Equity Shares will be Allotted to all successful Bidders only in dematerialised form. The Bid cum Application Forms, which did not have the details of the Bidders’ depository account, including DP ID, Client ID, UPI ID (in case of UPI Bidders using the UPI Mechanism) and PAN, were not treated as incomplete and were rejected. Bidders did not have the option of being Allotted Equity Shares in physical form. However, they may get the Equity Shares rematerialized subsequent to Allotment of the Equity Shares in the Issue subject to applicable laws.
Phased implementation of Unified Payments Interface (“UPI”) SEBI has issued the UPI Circulars in relation to streamlining the process of public issue of inter alia, equity shares. Pursuant to the UPI Circulars, the UPI Mechanism has been introduced in a phased manner as a payment mechanism (in addition to mechanism of blocking funds in the account maintained with SCSBs under ASBA) for applications by RIBs through Designated Intermediaries with the objective to reduce the time duration from public issue closure to listing from six Working Days to up to three Working Days. The SEBI, through the SEBI ICDR Master Circular, has reduced the time period for listing of equity shares pursuant to a public issue from six Working Days to three Working Days.
This Issue was undertaken pursuant to the processes and procedures prescribed under UPI Phase III, subject to any circulars, clarifications or notifications which may be issued by the SEBI. The Issue was advertised in all editions Financial Express (a widely circulated English national daily newspaper), all editions of Jansatta (a widely circulated Hindi national daily newspaper) and all editions of Financial Express, Gujarati (a widely circulated Gujarati daily newspaper, Gujarati being the regional language of Gujarat, where our registered office is located) each with wide circulation at least two Working Days prior to the Bid/Issue Opening Date and such advertisement was made available to the Stock Exchanges for the purpose of uploading on their websites.
Individual investors bidding under the Non-Institutional Portion bidding for more than ₹0.20 million and up to ₹0.50 million using the UPI Mechanism, had to provide their UPI ID in the Bid-cum-Application Form for Bidding through Syndicate, sub-syndicate members, Registered Brokers, RTAs or CDPs, or online using the facility of linked online trading, demat and bank account (3 in 1 type accounts), provided by certain brokers.
Pursuant to the UPI Circulars and the SEBI ICDR Master Circular, SEBI has set out specific requirements for redressal of investor grievances for applications that have been made through the UPI Mechanism. The requirements of the UPI Circulars and the SEBI ICDR Master Circular include, appointment of a nodal officer by the SCSB and submission of their details to SEBI, the requirement for SCSBs to send SMS alerts for the blocking and unblocking of UPI mandates, the requirement for the Registrar to submit details of cancelled, withdrawn or deleted applications, and the requirement for the bank accounts of unsuccessful Bidders to be unblocked no later than one day from the date on which the Basis of Allotment is finalized. Failure to unblock the accounts within the timeline would result in the SCSBs being penalized under the relevant securities law. Additionally, if there is any delay in the redressal of investors’ complaints, the relevant SCSB as well as the post-Issue Book Running Lead Manager will be required to compensate the concerned investor.
All SCSBs offering the facility of making applications in public issues had to also provide the facility to make applications using UPI. Our Company was required to appoint Sponsor Bank to act as conduits between the Stock Exchanges and NPCI in order to facilitate collection of requests and/ or payment instructions of the UPI Bidders using the UPI.
Further, pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Master Circular, all individual investors applying in public issues where the application amount is up to ₹ 0.50 million had to use UPI and shall also provide their UPI ID in the Bid cum
Application Form submitted with any of the entities mentioned herein below:
485(a) a syndicate member;

Accordingly, multiple Bids received from FPIs that did not use the MIM Structure and bore the same PAN were liable to be rejected.
To ensure valid Bids, FPIs making multiple Bids using the same PAN but different beneficiary account numbers, Client IDs and DP IDs were required to provide, with each Bid cum Application Form, a confirmation that the relevant FPIs used the MIM Structure and to state the name of their respective investment manager. In the absence of such confirmation, the multiple Bids were liable to be rejected.

With effect from April 1, 2020, the aggregate limit was the sectoral cap applicable to the Indian company under the FEMA Rules, with respect to its paid-up equity capital on a fully diluted basis. The aggregate limit could have been decreased by the concerned Indian company to a lower threshold of 24%, 49% or 74%, as deemed fit, with the approval of its board of directors and shareholders through a resolution and a special resolution, respectively, before March 31, 2020. Our Company had not decreased the limit and, accordingly, the applicable limit for our Company was 100%.
FPIs were permitted to participate in the Issue, subject to compliance with the conditions and restrictions that could be specified by the Government from time to time.
Subject to compliance with all applicable Indian laws, rules, regulations, guidelines and approvals, under Regulation 21 of the SEBI FPI Regulations, an FPI could issue, subscribe to or otherwise deal in offshore derivative instruments (as defined under the SEBI FPI Regulations as any instrument, by whatever name called, issued overseas by an FPI against securities held by it in India as the underlying) directly or indirectly only if:

503RESTRICTIONS 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 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. Foreign investment is permitted (except in the prohibited sectors) in Indian companies, either through the automatic route or the approval route, depending upon the sector in which foreign investment is sought to be made. The Government of India makes policy announcements on FDI through press notes and press releases. The regulatory framework, over a period of time, thus, consists of acts, regulations, press notes, press releases, and clarifications among other amendments. The DPIIT (formerly Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion) issued the Consolidated FDI Policy Circular dated October 15, 2020, with effect from October 15, 2020 (the “FDI Circular”), which consolidates and supersedes all previous press note, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DPIIT that were in force and effect prior to October 15, 2020. Under the current FDI Policy, 100% foreign direct investment is permitted in the industry in which we operate, under the automatic route, subject to compliance with certain prescribed conditions.
In terms of Press Note 3 of 2020, dated April 17, 2020 (“Press Note”), issued by the DPIIT, the FDI Circular and the FEMA (Non-debt Instruments) Rules has been amended to state that all investments under the foreign direct investment route by entities of a country which shares land border with India or where the beneficial owner of an investment into India is situated in or is a citizen of any such country will require prior approval of the Government of India. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future foreign direct investment in an entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling within the aforesaid restriction/ purview, such subsequent change in the beneficial ownership will also require approval of the Government of India. However, pursuant to amendment on March 10, 2026, investors with non-controlling beneficial ownership of up to 10% from such jurisdictions are permitted under the automatic route, subject to applicable sectoral caps, entry routes, attendant conditions and reporting requirements.
Pursuant to the Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) (Fourth Amendment) Rules, 2020, a multilateral bank or fund, of which India is a member, shall not be treated as an entity of a particular country nor shall any country be treated as the beneficial owner of the investments of such bank of fund in India. Each Bidder should seek independent legal advice about its ability to participate in the Issue. In the event such prior approval of the Government of India is required, and such approval has been obtained, the Bidder shall intimate our Company and the Registrar to the Issue in writing about such approval along with a copy thereof within the Issue Period. Transfer of shares between an Indian resident and a non-resident does not require the prior approval of the RBI, provided that (i) the activities of the investee company are under the automatic route under the FDI Circular 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 Circular; and (iii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by the SEBI/RBI For details of the aggregate limit for investments by NRIs and FPIs in our Company, see “Issue Procedure – Bids by Eligible NRIs” and “Issue Procedure –Bids by FPIs”, both on page 490 and 491.
As per the existing policy of the Government of India, OCBs cannot participate in this Issue.
