of our operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing
activities derived in accordance with Ind AS, Indian GAAP, IFRS or US GAAP. In addition, these Non-GAAP

relating to our operations and financial performance 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
statistical information of similar nomenclature that may be computed and presented by other companies and are
not measures of operating performance or liquidity defined by Ind AS and may not be comparable to similarly
titled measures presented by other companies and hence have limited usefulness as a comparative measure. For
details, see “Risk Factors – We have in this Prospectus included certain non-GAAP financial measures and
certain other industry measures related to our operations and financial performance. These non-GAAP
measures and industry measures may vary from any standard methodology that is applicable across the

Risk factors
Investors are advised to read the risk factors carefully before taking an investment decision in the Offer. Details
of our top 10 risk factors are set forth below.
1. We derive a significant portion of our revenue from operations from our top 10 customers and we do not
have long-term contracts with all of these customers. If one or more of such customers choose not to
source their requirements from us or to terminate our contracts or purchase orders, our business, cash
flows, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
2. Our Company, Promoters, Directors, KMPs and SMPs are parties to certain legal proceedings.
Litigations involving our Company aggregate amounting to ₹12,051.25 Lakhs which is 68.22% of our
net worth Any adverse decision in such proceedings may have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.
3. Our Manufacturing Facility and Proposed Facility is located in Gujarat and therefore our operation is
highly vulnerable to regional conditions and economic downturns in the region.
4. We rely substantially on our top 10 suppliers of the raw materials and work-in-progress goods used in
our manufacturing processes. Any shortages, delay or disruption may have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
5. We derive the majority of sales from the domestic market and a significant portion of our domestic sales
are derived from the states of Maharashtra, Gujarat & Uttar Pradesh. Any adverse developments in this
market could adversely affect our business.
6. We have contingent liabilities amounting to ₹12,082.46 Lakhs which is 68.40% of our net worth and our
financial condition could be adversely affected if any of these contingent liabilities materializes.
7. The Offer Price of our Equity Shares and price-to-earnings(P/E), may not reflect the trading price of our
Equity Shares upon listing on the Stock Exchanges subsequent to the Offer and, as a result, you may lose
a significant part or all of your investment.
8. Our Equity Shares have, in the past, been allotted and transferred at prices lower than earlier valuations,
which may impact investor perception regarding our equity capital history.
9. We have in the past, issued Equity Shares at significantly lower prices compared to earlier issue prices,
which may raise concerns about historical valuation practices and affect investor perception.
10. Changes in market demand for our existing stainless-steel products, as well as downturns in end-use
industries, may adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

38SECTION II –RISK FACTORS
An investment in Equity Shares involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should carefully consider all
the information in this Prospectus, including the risks and uncertainties described below, before making an
investment in our Equity Shares. In making an investment decision, prospective investors must rely on their own
examination of our Company and the terms of this Offer including the merits and risks involved. Any potential
investor in, and subscriber of, the Equity Shares should also pay particular attention to the fact that we are
governed in India by a legal and regulatory environment which in some material respects may be different from
that which prevails in other countries. The risks and uncertainties described in this Section are not the only risks
and uncertainties we currently face. Additional risks and uncertainties not known to us or that we currently deem
immaterial may also have an adverse effect on our business. If any of the following risks, or any other risks that
are not currently known or are currently deemed immaterial, actually occur, our business, results of operations
and financial condition could suffer, the price of our Equity Shares could decline, and you may lose all or any
part of your investment. Additionally, our business operations could also be affected by additional factors that
are not presently known to us or that we currently consider as immaterial to our operations.
Unless otherwise stated in the relevant risk factors set forth below, we are not in a position to specify or quantify
the financial or other implications of any of the risks mentioned herein. Unless otherwise stated, the financial
information of our Company used in this Section is derived from our Restated Financial Statements prepared in

considered for determining the materiality of Risk Factors:
• Some risks may not be material individually but may be material when considered collectively;

• Some risks may not be material at present but may have a material impact in the future.
The financial and other related implications of risks concerned, wherever quantifiable, have been disclosed in the
risk factors mentioned below. However, there are risk factors where the impact may not be quantifiable and hence

looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the considerations described below and elsewhere in
this Prospectus. For further details, see “Forward-Looking Statements” on page 24.
Unless otherwise indicated, industry and market data used in this section has been derived from the industry

INTERNAL RISK FACTORS
1. We derive a significant portion of our revenue from operations from our top 10 customers, and we do
not have long-term contracts with all these customers. If one or more such customers choose not to
source their requirements from us or to terminate our contracts or purchase orders, our business, cash
flows, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
We derive the majority of our revenues from the manufacture and supply of our products domestically,
through direct sales to Manufacturers and traders. Our top 10 customers whom we supply our products
comprises of Manufacturers only. The table set forth below provides the revenue contribution and
revenue contribution from sale of our products as a percentage of our total revenue from our top 1
customer, our top 3 customers, our top 5 customers and our top 10 customers, for the six-month period
ended September 30, 2025, Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023:

Note: As certified by the Statutory Auditors M/s Ruparel & Bavadiya (FRN:126260W) through certificate dated December 30,
2025
We have not entered a contractual arrangement for supply of our products with all the customers and
instead we rely on purchase orders to govern the volume and other terms of our sales. We cannot assure
you that we will be able to sell the quantities we have historically supplied to such customers. In the
event our competitors’ products offer better margins to such customers or otherwise incentivize them,
there can be no assurance that our customers will continue to place orders with us. Most of our
transactions with our customers are typically on a purchase order basis without any commitment to a
fixed volume of business. There can also be no assurance that our customers will place their orders with
us on current or similar terms, or at all. Further, our customers could change their business practices or
seek to modify the terms that we have customarily followed with them, including in relation to their
payment terms. While we negotiate product prices and payment terms with our customers, in the event
our customers alter their requirements, it could have a material adverse effect on our business growth
and prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, our customers may
also cancel purchase orders at short notice or without notice, which could have an impact on our inventory
40management. In the event of frequent cancellations of purchase orders, the same could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
While we believe that we have maintained good and long-standing relationships with our customers, for
instance, our top five (5) customers have been associated with us for over 3 years, however, there can be
no assurance that we will continue to have such a long-term relationship with them. Significant
dependence on a select and small group of customers may increase the potential volatility of our results
of operations. We may continue to remain dependent upon our key customers for a substantial portion of
our revenues. During six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and Fiscal 2025, our largest customer
accounted for 11.09% and 8.25% of our revenues. Set out below are the details of repeated customers
during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and Fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023:
Period Total Number of % of Repeat Revenue % of Revenue

Fiscal 2023 363 205 56.47 82,301.65 86.85
Note: Repeated customers are those customers who have continued to transact with us since the previous reporting
period
The loss of all or a significant portion of sales to any of our top 10 customers, for any reason including
the loss of contracts or inability to negotiate favourable terms, failure to meet their quality or design
specification, our inability to respond to change in market trends, economic changes, shortage of skilled
labour, our disputes with these customers, adverse changes in their financial condition, insolvency or
bankruptcy of these customers, decrease in their sales, any action undertaken by the government affecting
business of these customers, etc. could have an adverse impact our business, financial condition, results
of operations, and cash flows. Further, these customers may change their outsourcing strategy by
replacing us with our competitors or replacing our product with alternative products which we do not
supply. Also, these customers may demand price reductions, and we cannot assure you that we will be
able to offset any reduction in prices to these customers with reductions in our costs.
While we have not encountered any loss of major customers during the six-month period ended
September 30, 2025, and in the last three Fiscals, there can be no assurance that we would not lose any
of our major customers in the future. Any loss of our major customers may reduce our sales and affect
our estimates of anticipated sales, and may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows. Also, see “Risk Factor – We derive the majority of sale from the
domestic market and a significant portion of our domestic sales are derived from the states of
Maharashtra, Gujarat & Uttar Pradesh. Any adverse developments in this market could adversely
affect our business” on page 44.
Further, there have been no material instances of cancellation of orders during the reporting period which
could significantly impact the operations or financial performance of the Company. The details of year-
wise instances of cancellation of orders are as follows:
Period Total Orders Orders % of Orders
Received Cancelled Cancelled
As at six-month period ended September 30, 2025 3,133 54 1.72
Fiscal 2025 6,347 110 1.73
Fiscal 2024 5,812 105 1.81
Fiscal 2023 5,251 92 1.75
However, if we encounter substantial cancellation of orders, it may impact the operations or financial
performance of the Company
412. Our Company, Promoters, Directors, KMPs and SMPs are parties to certain legal proceedings.
Litigations involving our Company aggregate amounting to ₹12,051.25 Lakhs which is 68.22% of our
net worth Any adverse decision in such proceedings may have a material adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our Company, Promoters, Directors, KMPs and SMPs are parties to certain legal proceedings. These
legal proceedings are pending at different stages before various courts, tribunals and forums. The
outcomes of these legal proceedings are uncertain and could lead to adverse orders against our Company,
Promoters and Directors. Legal expenses, regulatory challenges, and potential sanctions arising from
these proceedings may put a strain on our financial resources and impact our profitability. In the event
of adverse rulings in these proceedings or levy of penalties / fines by courts, tribunals and forums, our
Company may need to make payments or make provisions for future payments. Furthermore, adverse
publicity and negative perceptions associated with criminal litigation can affect our reputation, leading
to potential loss of customer trust and business opportunities. It may also impact our ability to secure
contracts, licenses, or permits required for our operations.

*To the extent quantifiable.
We cannot assure that any of the aforementioned litigations will be settled in our favour, or that no further
liability will arise out of these proceedings. Even if we are successful in defending such cases, we will
be subjected to legal and other costs relating to defending such litigation, and such costs could be
substantial. The amounts claimed in these proceedings have been disclosed to the extent ascertainable.
All the above ongoing matters could result in financial losses, reputational damage, and disruptions to
our Company’s business operations, in the event any adverse orders are passed against our
Company/directors.
42While we have not incurred any material penalties / fines due to any adverse rulings during the six-month
period ended September 30, 2025 and in the last three (3) Fiscals, such payments or provisions may
increase our expenses and current or contingent liabilities and also, adversely affect our reputation,
business, financial condition and results of operation in future.
3. Our Manufacturing Facility and Proposed Facility is located in Gujarat and therefore our operation
is highly vulnerable to regional conditions and economic downturns in the region.
Our manufacturing facility is located at Halol Kalol Road, Kalol, Panchmahal, Gujarat, India. We
propose to establish our Proposed Facility within the premise of our existing Manufacturing Facility. We
are primarily dependent on our manufacturing facilities to produce our products. Our business is
vulnerable to regional conditions and economic downturns in the region. Since we have a sole
Manufacturing Facility as on the date of this Prospectus, any unforeseen events or circumstances that
negatively affect this area could adversely affect our sales and profitability. In addition, our business may
also be susceptible to regional natural disasters and other catastrophes, such as telecommunications
failures, cyber-attacks, fires, riots, political unrest or terrorist attacks.
Any materially adverse social, political or economic development, natural calamities, civil disruptions,
or changes in the policies of the local governments in this region could adversely affect operations at our
manufacturing facility. Natural disasters such as earthquakes, extreme climatic or weather conditions
such as floods, droughts, or diseases heightened or particular to the region, may adversely impact the
supply of raw material, end-products, local transportation and operations at our manufacturing facility.
Such disruptions to supply would materially and adversely affect our business, profitability and
reputation. Also, see “Risk Factor - Our existing manufacturing facility is critical to our business
operations. The unexpected shutdown or slowdown of operations at our operational manufacturing
facility could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, profitability and
margins, cash flows and financial condition” on page 50.
4. We rely substantially on our top 10 suppliers of the raw materials and work-in-progress goods used in
our manufacturing processes. Any shortages, delay or disruption may have a material adverse effect
on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The principal raw materials include stainless steel scrap, mild steel scrap, oxygen, nitrogen, argon, ferro
alloys e, etc. Although, we enter into contracts with some of our suppliers, we cannot assure that we will
be in a position to procure our raw materials in a timely manner. Uninterrupted supply is vital to our
operations and margins, but factors like supplier disruptions, allocation priorities, logistics challenges,
commodity price fluctuations, natural disasters, and regulatory changes can affect availability and costs.
The absence of long-term contracts with all suppliers further exposes us to price volatility, impacting
profitability.
We procure our raw materials, both from the domestic market and international market, depending upon
the price and availability of raw materials. Our costs towards purchases for six-month period ended
September 30, 2025, Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 was ₹39,084.46 lakhs, ₹70,119.14 lakhs,
₹73,680.99 lakhs and ₹75,513.48 lakhs comprising 77.93%, 75.22%, 80.99%, and 79.68% of our
Revenue from operations, respectively. The following table sets forth our expenses towards procurement
of imported goods, in absolute terms and as a percentage of total expense, for the periods indicated:

For further information, see “Our Business – Raw Materials” on page 259.
A part of our raw materials and consumables are also imported. UAE, Malaysia, South Korea, Hong
Kong, U.S.A and Singapore constituted the top 6 countries from which the raw materials were imported
during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and the last three Fiscals. As a result, we continue
to remain susceptible to the risks arising out of foreign exchange rate fluctuations as well as import duties,
which could result in a decline in our operating margins.
If we cannot fully offset the increase in raw material prices with an increase in the prices for our products,
we will experience lower profit margins, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on our results
of operations and financial condition.
Although we have not faced significant disruptions in the procurement of raw materials during the six-
month period ended September 30, 2025 and in the last three Fiscals, except during COVID-19 pandemic
which temporarily affected our ability to source raw materials from certain vendors who were unable to
transport raw materials to us. There can be no assurance that in future we will be able to procure the
required quantities and quality of raw materials commensurate with our requirements.
Any delay in supplying finished products to customers in accordance with the terms and conditions of
the purchase orders, such as delivery within a specified time, as a result of delayed raw material supply,
could result in the customer refusing to accept our products, which may have an adverse effect on our
business and reputation.
5. We derive the majority of sales from the domestic market and a significant portion of our domestic
sales are derived from the states of Maharashtra, Gujarat & Uttar Pradesh. Any adverse developments
in this market could adversely affect our business.
We derive the majority of sales from the domestic market. The following table sets forth a breakdown of

In India, we currently sell our products in fourteen (14) states and two (2) union territories through direct
sales and our traders’ network. We generate significant revenue from operations from the state of
Maharashtra, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh which amounts to ₹45,684.91 lakhs, ₹84,500.50 lakhs,
₹79,245.58 lakhs and ₹86,416.05 lakhs constituting 91.09%, 90.65%, 87.10% and 91.19% of total

*Any discrepancies in any table between the total and the sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding off.
Due to the geographic concentration of the sale of our products in the above stated states / regions
specially in Maharashtra, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh, our operations are susceptible to local and regional
factors, such as economic and weather conditions, adverse social and political events, natural disasters,
demographic changes, and other unforeseen events and circumstances. Consequently, any significant
social, political or economic disruption, natural calamities or civil disruptions in these regions, changes
in policies of the State or local governments or the Government of India or adverse developments related
to competition in these regions, may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial
condition and cash flows. While we have not experienced any such instances which adversely impacted
our business and results of operations during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and in the
last three Fiscals, we cannot assure you that such instances will not arise in the future.
456. We have contingent liabilities amounting to ₹12,082.46 Lakhs which is 68.40% of our net worth and
our financial condition could be adversely affected if any of these contingent liabilities materializes.
As of six-month period ended September 30, 2025, contingent liabilities disclosed in the notes to our
audited and Restated Financial Statements aggregated ₹12,082.46 lakhs. The following table sets forth
our contingent liabilities as at six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and Fiscals 2025, 2024 and

page 364.
7. The Offer Price of our Equity Shares and price-to-earnings(P/E), may not reflect the trading price of
our Equity Shares upon listing on the Stock Exchanges subsequent to the Offer and, as a result, you
may lose a significant part or all of your investment.
While the Offer Price ultimately determines our market capitalisation, which will be decided by our
Company in consultation with the BRLM through the book building process, it is possible that the trading
price of our Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges after listing may vary significantly from the Offer
Price. Our P/E ratio at the higher end of the Price Band will be 21.11 times and 20.07 times at the lower
end of the Price Band, as compared to the average P/E ratio of 58.56 times for the listed peer set.
The P/E multiples at the Price Band may therefore represent a premium to the average industry P/E, and
the valuation for this Offer may not be strictly comparable with that of other listed peers. The relevant
financial parameters on the basis of which the Price Band will be determined are disclosed in the section
titled “Basis for Offer Price” on page 174 of this Prospectus and shall also be disclosed in the price band
advertisement to be published prior to the Offer. For peer comparison details, please refer to “Basis for
Offer Price” on page 174.
8. Our Equity Shares have, in the past, been allotted and transferred at prices lower than earlier
valuations, which may impact investor perception regarding our equity capital history.
Our Company has, in the past, undertaken certain equity shares allotments and witnessed various
secondary transfers at prices significantly below the prevailing or earlier issue prices. For instance, Equity
Shares were allotted at ₹40 per share on March 30, 2009 and May 15, 2009, and at ₹15 per share on
March 22, 2014, as against an earlier issue price of ₹100 per share. The said allotments were made to
meet the financial requirements of the Company at the relevant times and were priced based on
commercial and mutual negotiations with the respective investors. No formal valuation was required
46under the Companies Act, 1956 for such issuances at that time, and accordingly, no valuation report was
obtained with the said respect. The allotments were approved by shareholders through Extraordinary
General Meetings and were carried out in compliance with then applicable laws.
Further, multiple secondary transfers were executed at significantly lower prices. Various secondary
transfers took place on September 30, 2009, at the face value of ₹10 per share. Similar low-priced
transfers occurred on September 25, 2012 and March 31, 2014, at prices below the earlier purchase price
or indicative valuations. These transfers were effected between willing buyers and sellers at mutually
agreed prices, and there are no disputes reported in respect of such transactions.
While the Company has confirmed compliance with the applicable provisions of the Companies Act,
1956 and there are no known disputes relating to such issuances or transfers, these historical instances of
deep devaluation, discounted pricing, and bulk transfers may raise concerns regarding past price
discovery mechanisms, valuation transparency, and may adversely affect investor perception with respect
to the Company’s equity capital history”.
9. We have in the past, issued Equity Shares at significantly lower prices compared to earlier issue prices,
which may raise concerns about historical valuation practices and affect investor perception.
Our Company has historically undertaken several issuances of Equity Shares at varied prices, including
instances where shares were allotted at prices significantly below previous issue prices. While such
allotments were made based on the financial requirements of the Company at the relevant time and were
in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 1956, the absence of a formal
valuation process and the steep lower price with respect to said issuances may raise concerns with respect
to the issue price of equity shares made by the Company in the past.
A summary of the historical equity share allotments is provided below:

Note: Pursuant to a shareholders’ resolution dated September 29, 2007, each equity shares of face value ₹100 was
subdivided into 10 equity shares of face value ₹10.
As it is evident from the table above, Equity Shares were issued in 2009 and 2014 at ₹40 and ₹15 per
share, respectively, which is significantly lower than prior issue prices. These lower-priced allotments
were made based on negotiated terms with investors to address capital requirements at the time as
confirmed by the Company, and these issuances were carried out with shareholder approvals and in
compliance with the Companies Act, 1956.
Nevertheless, the absence of formal valuation processes for these issuances, and the significant disparity
in pricing compared to earlier issuances, may raise concerns about historical valuation. This could affect
investor perception regarding valuation, with respect to the Company’s equity capital history.
10. Changes in market demand for our existing stainless-steel products, as well as downturns in end-use
industries, may adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from the sale of our stainless-steel products such as rolled
black bars, rolled bright bars, billets, flat bars, ingots, and stainless-steel wire rods. Consequently, our
business is sensitive to trends in the pipe and structural steel industry in which we operate, as well as in
the industries in which our products are used, including bar processing, seamless pipes, forging, wire
manufacturing, engineering, casting, fasteners, utensils manufacturing, pump and shaft manufacturing,
and the auto industry.
Any downturn in these industries may result in a decline in demand for our products, which could
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Additionally, a decline in our customers’ business performance may also lead to a corresponding decrease
in demand for our products. The volume and timing of sales to our customers may vary due to fluctuations
in demand for their products, efforts to manage their inventory levels, changes in their product mix or
design, availability of substitutes, and other macroeconomic factors.
Further, any significant shift in demand for our products, or if customers begin sourcing from alternative
suppliers, or if superior substitute products emerge, or if there is a significant technological change in
how such products are produced, could negatively impact our revenue, margins and cash flows. Although
we have not experienced any material decline in the sale of our finished products during the six-month
period ended September 30, 2025, or in the past three Fiscals, there can be no assurance that such
downturns or reductions in demand will not occur in the future.
Unfavorable industry conditions may also result in increased commercial disputes, pricing pressure, and
risk of supply chain disruptions, all of which may adversely impact our financial and operational
performance.

Note: Any discrepancies in any table between the total and the sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding off.
Any adverse change in demand dynamics, whether due to industry-specific cycles, technological
evolution, or customer preferences, may materially impact our business, results of operations, and
financial condition.
11. Our proposed stainless-steel seamless pipe products may not achieve market acceptance, which may
adversely affect our return on investment and future growth.
We propose to utilise a portion of the Net Proceeds towards setting up a manufacturing facility for
stainless-steel seamless pipes within our existing Manufacturing Facility. For details, see “Objects of the
Offer” on page 155. The success of this proposed product line is dependent on market acceptance,
customer demand, pricing competitiveness, and our ability to meet technical and regulatory requirements.
49While this expansion aligns with our growth strategy, there can be no assurance that the new product line
will achieve market acceptance or generate expected returns. Further, there can be no assurance that the
proposed seamless pipes will gain acceptance in the market or that we will be able to compete effectively
with existing players in this segment. Additionally, if we are unable to anticipate changes in technology
or regulatory standards, or if we are unable to scale production efficiently, we may not achieve the
intended benefits of this diversification
Any failure to diversify our product offering effectively or generate adequate demand for the proposed
stainless-steel seamless pipes may result in underutilisation of the new facility, suboptimal returns on
capital invested, growth prospect and could adversely affect our future growth, business, results of
operations, and financial condition.
12. Defaults or rescheduling/ restructuring of borrowings with financial institutions/ banks.
Except as stated below, there have been no instances of rescheduling/ restructuring of borrowings with
financial institutions/ banks in respect of our current borrowings from lenders.
In the past, our Company defaulted on timely repayment of a cash credit facility from the Bank of Baroda,
Halol Branch, Gujarat due to financial distress and was subsequently classified as a Non-BIFR unit in
terms of Industries and Mines Department Resolution under Scheme for Rehabilitation of Small Scale
and Non-BIFR Sick Viable Industries. Under the said resolution, Non-BIFR units were those industrial
undertakings that did not qualify as "sick industrial companies" under the provisions of the Sick Industrial
Companies (Special Provisions) Act, 1985 (“SICA”), and therefore were not eligible for reference to the
Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (“BIFR”). This typically included small-scale
industrial units that, while financially distressed, had not suffered complete erosion of their net worth, a
key threshold for BIFR eligibility under SICA. Despite not falling within BIFR’s jurisdiction, many of
these units were still considered sick in practical terms, often burdened with overdue loans, operational
losses, and liquidity issues. Recognizing the need for targeted intervention, the Government of Gujarat
introduced special rehabilitation schemes to address this gap. Under the resolution, the Non-BIFR units
means to include a viable sick small-scale industries that could be revived with structured financial and
operational support. These units were eligible for state-coordinated rehabilitation measures through
mechanisms like the Gujarat Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (“GBIFR”).
At the time of the default, the Company was managed by the Erstwhile Promoters of the Company Mr.
Om Prakash Agarwal and Mr. Ram Sharan Tambi. The Company was classified as a Non-BIFR unit in
terms of Industries and Mines Department Resolution under Scheme for Rehabilitation of Small Scale
and Non-BIFR Sick Viable Industries in the year 1999. Between 1999 and 2006, the present management
of the Company under the leadership of its current Promoters undertook several revival measures coupled
with relief provided under the resolution of GBIFR aimed at restoring financial stability and operational
growth. These efforts led to Company being able to make the full and final payment to the complete
turnaround, resulting in the Company being removed from the list of Non-BIFR Sick Units.
13. Adverse business cycles, financial stress, or the inability of our Company to effectively manage
business volumes, customer relationships, or supplier networks may materially and adversely affect
our financial condition, results of operations, and business prospects.
Our business is sensitive to economic cycles and the overall demand environment in the stainless steel
industry, which is in turn influenced by factors such as industrial output, infrastructure investment, capital
expenditure by end-user industries, and fluctuations in raw material prices. Any downturn in domestic or
global economic conditions, weakening of industrial demand, or adverse movement in commodity prices
may lead to a reduction in orders, lower capacity utilisation, or pricing pressure, thereby adversely
impacting our revenues and profitability.
Further, our operations are significantly dependent on our ability to effectively manage increasing or
fluctuating business volumes, maintain strong and enduring relationships with our customers, and ensure
a reliable and cost-effective supply chain for raw materials. Any disruption or failure in managing these
key elements, whether due to internal inefficiencies, external supply chain disruptions, pricing volatility,
or inability to timely meet product specifications, may result in delayed deliveries, loss of business,
erosion of customer confidence, or strained supplier relationships.
50Additionally, in the event of financial stress or working capital constraints, our ability to procure raw
materials, service debt obligations, fund operations, or invest in technological or capacity upgrades may
be hampered, which could adversely affect our competitive position in the market. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to successfully navigate such adverse cycles or manage operational
complexities without impacting our financial performance. Further, any adverse economic, operational,
or financial developments, or our inability to respond adequately to such challenges, may materially and
adversely affect our business prospects, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
14. A portion of our revenue is denominated in foreign currencies which are unhedged and going forward,
we intend to increase our export sales. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange risks
which may adversely impact our results of operations.
We have exposure to foreign exchange-related risks since a portion of our revenue from operations are
in foreign currencies. During six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and Fiscal 2025 and 2024 we
exported our products to Nine (9) countries including Turkey, UAE, Poland, Portugal, USA, South
Africa, South Korea, Czech Republic and Kuwait. The table set forth below details the export revenue
earned by us:

Going forward, we intend to increase our wallet share from export. Any appreciation or depreciation of
the Indian Rupee against these currencies can impact our results of operations. We may experience
foreign exchange losses and gains in respect of transactions denominated in foreign currencies. We may
from time to time be required to make provisions for foreign exchange differences in accordance with
accounting standards. Our inability to price our products at the applicable prices in the international
markets may affect the demand for our products and consequently have a material adverse effect on our
51results of operations and financial condition.
Further, in addition to the currency fluctuation risk, there are a number of risks in doing business abroad,
where we have limited experience. These risks and challenges include risks with respect to different tax
and regulatory environments (particularly with respect to the nature of our products), changes in social,
political and economic conditions, the need to recruit personnel combining product skills and local
market knowledge, obtaining the necessary clearances and approvals to set up business and competing
with established players in these regions and cost structures in international markets, including those in
which we operate, that are significantly different from those that we have experienced in India.
Authorities in different jurisdictions may impose their own requirements or delay or refuse to grant
approval, even when our product has already been approved in another country. In case we fail to comply
with applicable statutory or regulatory requirements, there could be a delay in the submission or grant of
approval for marketing new products.
Further, there may be certain developments in the industries in which our customers operate which in
turn may have an impact on our sales from exports. There may be imposition of certain tariffs, quotas
and other tariff and non-tariff trade barriers on our products in jurisdictions in which we operate or seek
to sell our products and we may face trade restrictions in the jurisdictions we operate including the United
States, among others. Additionally, there may be a prohibition on our exports to certain countries that
may be included in the sanctions list maintained by the Government of India.
These risks may impact our ability to expand our exports in different regions and otherwise achieve our
objectives relating to our export operations. Expansion into a market outside of our current operation
could require significant capital expenditure and have a material effect on our capital structure. If we
pursue an international expansion opportunity, we could face internal or external risks, including, without
limitation, compliance with multiple and potentially conflicting foreign laws and regulations, import and
export limitations and limits on the repatriation of funds.
We may be unsuccessful in developing and implementing policies and strategies that will be effective in
managing these risks in each country where we have business operations. Our failure to manage these
risks successfully could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
Furthermore, we may face competition in other countries from companies that have more experience
with operations in such countries or with international operations generally. If we are unable to
successfully develop or manage our international operations, it may limit our ability to grow our
international business.
15. In the past one of our Independent Directors was subject to disqualification and default.
In the past, one of our Independent Directors, Prashant B. Patel, was disqualified to act as a director in
any company, under the provision of section 164 of the Companies Act 2013, due to his directorship in
a company, namely, Squad Management Services Private Limited, which had not filed its financial
statements/annual returns with the concerned Registrar of Companies for continuous period of three (3)
years in the past. Consequently, the concerned Registrar of Companies, initiated the strike-off process
under the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, and the strike-off was duly published in the
Official Gazette. Accordingly, Prashant B. Patel was disqualified to be a director in any company for the
period commencing from November 1, 2016. However, the disqualification ceased to exist as on date
and the director identification number (DIN) of Prashant B. Patel was re-approved on December 1, 2019
(as per MCA Website).
16. Our Company is yet to place orders for the equipment, plant and machinery for the Proposed Facility.
Any delay in placing orders or procurement of such equipment, plant and machinery may delay the
schedule of implementation and possibly increase the cost of commencing operations.
As on date, we are engaged in the business of manufacturing long and flat stainless-steel products
comprising of billets, forging ingots, rolled black bar, rolled bright bar, flat & patti and other ancillary
products. We propose to establish a stainless-steel seamless pipes production plant within the premise of
our existing Manufacturing Facility and for the purpose of establishing the Proposed Facility, our
Company intends to utilise a portion of Net Proceeds.
52Our Company has received third party quotations for the equipment, plant and machinery proposed to be
installed at the proposed expanded manufacturing facility. Although we have identified the type of
equipment, plant and machinery proposed to be purchased from the Net Proceeds, we are yet to place
orders for the proposed equipment, plant and machinery amounting to approximately ₹958.77 lakhs,
excluding taxes and installation and transportation charges. The cost of the proposed purchase of
equipment, plant and machinery is based on the quotations received from third party vendors and
contractors and such quotations are valid for a certain period and may be subject to revisions, and other
commercial and technical factors. For details, see "Objects of the Offer" on page 155. Also, see “Risk
Factor - We may face several risks associated with the construction of the building of the Proposed
Facility, which could hamper our growth, prospects, cash flows and business and financial condition”
on page 53.
We cannot assure that we will be able to procure the equipment, plant and machinery in a timely manner
and at the same price at which the quotations have been received. In the event of any delay in placing the
orders, or an escalation in the cost of acquisition of the equipment or in the event the vendors are not able
to provide the equipment in a timely manner, or at all, we may encounter time and cost overruns in
expanding the capacity of our Manufacturing Facility. Further, if we are unable to procure machinery
and equipment from the vendors from whom we have procured quotations, we cannot assure you that we
may be able to identify alternative vendors to provide us with the machinery and equipment which satisfy
our requirements at acceptable prices. Our inability to procure the machinery and equipment at acceptable
prices or in a timely manner may result in an increase in capital expenditure, the proposed schedule
implementation and deployment of the Net Proceeds may be extended or may vary accordingly, thereby
resulting in an adverse effect on our business, prospects and results of operations.
17. Our business is a high volume-low margin business. Any disruption in our turnover or failure to
regularly grow the same may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
The stainless-steel industry is a high-volume low margin business due to various reasons such as higher
operating costs and fixed as compared to cost of product. Our inability to regularly increase our turnover
and effectively execute our key business processes could lead to lower profitability and hence adversely
affect our operating results, debt service capabilities and financial conditions. Due to the nature of the
products we manufacture and sell and due to high competition, we may not be able to charge higher
margins on our products. Hence, our business model is heavily reliant on our ability to effectively grow
our turnover and manage our key processes including but not limited to procurement of raw material and
timely sales / order execution.

As part of our growth strategy, we aim to improve our functional efficiency and expand our product
portfolio and business operations. Our growth strategy is subject to and involves risks and difficulties,
many of which are beyond our control and, accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be able
to implement our strategy or growth plans or complete them within the timelines. Further, we operate in
a dynamic industry, and on account of changes in market conditions, industry dynamics, technological
improvements or changes and any other relevant factors, our growth strategy and plans may undergo
changes or modifications, and such changes or modifications may be substantial, and may even include
limiting or foregoing growth opportunities if the situation so demands. Due to the nature of our business
involving low profit margins, sudden changes with respect to price movements in goods being traded or
sudden ad hoc anomalies in business or operations could substantially affect our net bottom lines and
hence, adversely affect our results of operations and financial conditions. For further details, see
“Management’s Discussions and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” on page
396”.
18. There are certain instances of delays in payment of statutory dues. Any delay in payment of statutory
dues or non-payment of statutory dues in dispute may attract financial penalties from the respective
government authorities, which may have an adverse impact on our financial condition and cash flows.
There have been certain instances on delay in payment of statutory dues during six-month period ended
September 30, 2025, and in last three Fiscals, which inter-alia include, Goods and Services Tax,
Provident Fund, Employees’ State Insurance, which as on the date of this Prospectus has been deposited
with relevant authorities. Listed below instances of delay/ irregularity in payment of provident fund dues,

*The gross output tax liability for the period of return is considered as the amount involved for Goods and Service Tax.
Notes:
541. TDS returns are filed on a quarterly basis
2. Labor welfare returns are filed on a half yearly basis with the number of employees reported as of December, since the
returns are submitted in both June and December, and the total dues are calculated as the sum of payments made during
these two periods and not for the year.
While no penalty or fine has been levied by the appropriate authorities against us for the aforementioned
delays, we cannot assure you that we will not be subject to such penalties and fines in the future which
may have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and cash flows.

While we shall endeavour to make the requisite payment on time, we cannot assure that going forward
such delays may not arise in future. Any delay in future may lead to financial penalties from respective
government authorities which may have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and cash
flows.
19. We may face several risks associated with the construction of the building of the Proposed Facility,
which could hamper our growth, prospects, cash flows and business and financial condition.
We intend to utilize a portion of the Net Proceeds amounting to approximately ₹575.02 lakhs for the
construction of the project building, forming a part of the Proposed Facility. For further details, see
"Objects of the Offer" on page 155.
We have received approval for the building plans for the Proposed Facility on January 27, 2025. Despite
receipt of the building plan approval, we may still be subject to various risks, including risk relating to
cost overruns or delays for various reasons including changes in design and configuration of the project
building, increase in input costs of construction materials and labour costs, incremental preoperative
expenses, taxes and duties, start-up costs, EPC and non-EPC costs and other external factors which may
not be within the control of our management. If the project building that we propose to set up is not
completed in a timely manner, or at all, our business, prospects and results of operations may be adversely
affected. Further, the budgeted cost may prove insufficient to meet the requirements of the Proposed
Facility due to, among other things, cost escalation, which could drain our internal cash flow or compel
us to raise additional capital, which may not be available on terms favourable to us or at all.
56We cannot assure that we will be able to complete the project building forming part of the Proposed
Facility in accordance with the proposed schedule of implementation Although, we have received the
approval for of the building plan from the concerned authority, any delay in setting up project building
in a timely manner, or at all, could have an adverse impact on our growth, prospects, cash flow and
business and financial condition.
20. We may face risks relating to the Proposed Facility, such as cost overruns, delays in implementation,
receipt of statutory approvals, and other execution challenges in setting up the Proposed Facility,
which may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and growth
prospects
We intend to utilize a portion of the Net Proceeds of the Offer to set up the Proposed Facility for
manufacturing stainless-steel seamless pipes within the premises of our Manufacturing Facility. For
further details, see "Object of the Offer" at page 155.
During the process of establishing the Proposed Facility, we may face several difficulties such as cost
overruns or delays for various reasons, including, but not limited to, our financial and market conditions,
changes in business and strategy, competition, negotiation with vendors, variation in cost estimates
including due to passage of time, incremental pre-operative expenses and other external factors such as
changes in the business environment, receipt of regulatory approvals and interest or exchange rate
fluctuations, which may not be within the control of our management. We cannot assure you that we will
be able to implement the Proposed Facility without facing delays or time and cost overruns.
The schedule of implementation as set out under the TEV Report for the proposed project is set out
below:
Phase Package Status/ expected Expected completion
commencement month
month
Phase I Design and procurement January 2026 February 2026
Phase II Civil Works March 2026 May 2026
Phase III Equipment Installation May 2026 November 2026
Phase IV Testing & Commissioning November 2026 December 2026
Commercial Operations Date January 1, 2027
Note: The implementation schedule for the Proposed Facility is contingent upon the timing of the completion of the Offer, as the
funding for the Proposed Facility is proposed to be met from the Fresh Issue.
Any delay in the aforementioned establishing of the Proposed Facility could lead to a revenue loss for
our Company. Further, our Proposed Facility may be subject to delays and other risks, which may be
caused due to certain other unforeseen events, such as unforeseen engineering or technical problems,
disputes with workers, unanticipated cost increases or changes in scope and delays in obtaining requisite
government approvals and consents. While we may seek to minimize the risks from any unanticipated
events, it cannot be assured that all potential delays could be mitigated and that we will be able to prevent
any cost and time over-runs and any loss of profits resulting from such delays, shortfalls and disruptions.
Further, the budgeted cost may prove insufficient to meet the requirements of the Proposed Facility due
to, among other things, cost escalation, which could drain our internal cash flows or compel us to raise
additional capital, which may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all. We cannot assure that
we will be able to complete the aforementioned expansion in accordance with the proposed schedule of
implementation and any delay in setting up such a plant in a timely manner, or at all, could have an
adverse impact on our growth, prospects, cash flow and business and financial condition.
We also cannot assure you that we will be able to receive the requisites approvals for the Proposed
Facility in a timely manner. If we are not able to receive the required approvals at all or if there is a delay
in receiving the same, all other operations which are to be undertaken for the completion of the expansion
might also be delayed or we may also be compelled to evaluate alternate locations for completion of
Proposed Facility. The quotations for plant and machinery and civil works received by us from concerned
57vendors and contractors might expire and we may be compelled to purchase the same at a higher cost
from the same or different vendors as the case may be. Our financial condition, results of operations and
liquidity would be materially and adversely affected if the cost for the Proposed Facility materially
exceeds such budgeted amounts. For further details, see "Objects of the Offer" and “Risk Factor - Our
funding requirements and the proposed deployment of Net Proceeds have not been appraised by any
bank or financial institution or any other independent agency and our management will have broad
discretion over the use of the Net Proceeds” on pages 155 and 82.
21. We may fail to protect our intellectual property, including our designs and are susceptible to litigation
for infringement of intellectual property rights in relation to such designs. This could materially and
adversely affect our reputation, results of operations and financial condition.
As on the date of this Prospectus, our Company has made an application for registration of the following
trademark with the Registrar of Trademarks under the Trademarks Act, 1999:
Sr. Particulars of Class Trademark Present Status
No. Trademark Number
1. 6 6175861 Accepted &
Advertised
Any failure to register or renew registration of our registered trademark may affect our right to use such
a trademark in future. If our trademarks are improperly used, the value and reputation of our brand could
be harmed. The measures we take to protect our intellectual property may not be adequate to prevent
unauthorized use of our intellectual property by third parties. Notwithstanding the precautions we take
to protect our intellectual property rights, it is possible that third parties may copy or otherwise infringe
upon our rights, which may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
22. Our existing manufacturing facility is critical to our business operations. The unexpected shutdown
or slowdown of operations at our operational manufacturing facility could have a material adverse
effect on our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash flows and financial
condition.
We have a single operational manufacturing facility in Gujarat which is subject to operating risks. Our
manufacturing facility and operations are subject to the following risks:
• forced or voluntary closure of our manufacturing facility, including as a result of regulatory
actions;
• problems with supply chain continuity, including as a result of natural or man-made disasters at
our manufacturing facility;
• manufacturing shutdowns, breakdowns or failure of equipment, equipment performance below
expected levels of efficiency, obsolescence of our equipment and production facility, industrial
accidents and the need to comply with the directives of relevant government authorities;
• disruption in electrical power or water resources, fire and industrial accidents, natural
calamities, which may entail significant repair and maintenance costs;
• labor disputes, strikes, lockouts that may result in temporary shutdowns or manufacturing
disruptions;
• any changes in the availability of power or water availability which impacts the entire region;
• failure of a supplier to provide us with the critical raw materials or components for an extended
period of time, which could impact continuous supply;
• shortage of qualified personnel;
• changes in laws and regulations impacting our manufacturing facility; and
• any other incidents beyond our control.
Any unscheduled, unplanned or prolonged disruption of our manufacturing operations could reduce our
ability to meet the conditions of our contracts and adversely affect sales and revenues from operations in
such a period. While we believe that we undertake measures as we consider adequate to minimize the
58possible risk to any significant operational problems at our manufacturing facility, there can be no
assurance that our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash flows and financial
condition will not be adversely affected by disruption caused by operational problems at our
manufacturing facility.
The occurrence of any of above stated risks could affect our operations by causing production to shut
down or slowdown. No assurance can be given that one or more of the factors mentioned above will not
occur, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Any interruption in production may require significant and unanticipated capital expenditure to affect
repairs, which could have a negative effect on profitability and cash flows. Any or all of these occurrences
could result in the temporary or long-term closure of our manufacturing facility, severely disrupt our
business operations and materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, profitability and
margins, cash flows and financial condition. While we have not experienced any major disruptions at our
Manufacturing Facility during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and in the last three
Fiscals. We cannot assure you that there will not be any such disruptions in the future.
23. A significant portion of our revenue is derived from transactions with related parties, and any
reduction or discontinuation of such transactions could adversely affect our business and results of
operations.
A significant portion of our revenue is derived from transactions with our related parties. For the six-
month period ended September 30, 2025 and Fiscals ended 2025, 2024 and 2023, revenue from related
party transactions amounted to ₹7,175.96 lakhs, ₹12,074.92 lakhs, ₹3,364.59 lakhs and ₹3,471.57 lakhs,
respectively, representing approximately 14.31%, 12.95%, 3.70% and 3.66% of our total revenue for the
respective periods.
These transactions primarily relate to sales of goods & services entered into in the ordinary course of
business. While such transactions are undertaken on an arm’s length basis and in compliance with
applicable laws and accounting standards, there can be no assurance that we would be able to replace
such revenue on comparable commercial terms, or at all, if these arrangements are modified, not renewed,
or terminated.
Our dependence on related parties for a significant portion of our revenue exposes us to risks arising
from potential conflicts of interest, changes in business priorities, financial condition or strategic
objectives of such related parties. Any adverse developments affecting these related parties, or any
deterioration in our relationship with them, could lead to a reduction in business volumes, delays in
payments, or renegotiation of commercial terms, which could materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Further, related party transactions are subject to heightened regulatory and shareholder scrutiny. Any
actual or perceived non-compliance with applicable laws, corporate governance requirements or
disclosure obligations in relation to such transactions could result in regulatory action, penalties,
reputational harm and loss of investor confidence.
Accordingly, our significant reliance on revenue derived from related parties presents inherent risks, and
any adverse change in the nature, volume or continuity of such transactions could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
24. Disruption in our relationships with third party traders, changes in their business practices, and their
failure to meet payment schedules could adversely affect our business, operating cash flows and
financial condition.
We derive majority of our revenues from the manufacture and supply of our products domestically
through direct sales to Manufacturers and traders. Our top 10 customers whom we supply our products
comprises of Manufacturers. As of September 30, 2025, and Fiscal 2025, our Manufacturers network
comprises of 220 and 225 customers respectively, the rest of which are traders which comprise of 46 and
145 Traders respectively across the country. We typically do not enter annual contracts or long-term
59contracts with such third-party traders for the sale of our products and therefore cannot assure that we
would maintain historic level of relation with them. At times, we provide certain incentives to such
traders by giving an upfront discount in case of bulk orders, extended credit period, etc. We believe that
such traders serve as a source of market information for our products which aids us in knowing our
competitors and market trends.
The table set forth below the details of the revenue contribution by direct sales to Manufacturers and
traders network (excluding revenue from other income) during the six-month period ended September
30, 2025, Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023.

*Any discrepancies in any table between the total and the sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding off.
As we rely on our traders’ network for the sale of our finished products, any one of the following events
could adversely impact or result in a decrease in our sale of products and consequently impact our
business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash flows and financial condition:
• failure to maintain relationships with our existing traders;
• disputes with our traders, including disputes regarding pricing, performance, quality or supply
chain;
• failure to establish relationships with new traders, on favourable terms or at all; and
• reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from our traders.
Further, our traders are susceptible to changing their business practices, such as the inventory levels they
maintain, or may fail to meet payment schedules, causing us to revise or revoke the credit period extended
to them. Further, our traders are not exclusive to us, and we have not entered any arrangements with
them. Such traders also stock and sell products of multiple manufacturers, who could be our competitors.
If the terms offered to such traders by our competitors are more favourable than those offered by us, our
traders may choose to purchase products from them instead of us.
We cannot assure you that we will not lose any of our traders to our competitors, which may result in a
material adverse effect on our business in regions where such traders conduct their business.
Alternatively, if such traders are not able to maintain a strong network of retailers and fabricators or other
end customers, our products may not attain as much reach as our competitors in the market. While we
have not lost any of our critical trader during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and in the
last three Fiscals, we cannot assure you that such loss will not occur in the future.
25. We are highly dependent on our skilled personnel for our day-to-day operations. The loss of or our
inability to attract or retain such persons will have a material adverse effect on our business
performance.
Our success in expanding our business will also depend, in part, on our ability to attract, retain and
motivate skilled personnel. Competition for skilled personnel in our industry is intense. Our competitors
60may offer compensation and remuneration packages beyond what we are offering to our employees. We
may also be required to increase our levels of employee compensation more rapidly than in the past to
remain competitive in attracting the employees that our business requires. Because of these factors, there
is no assurance that we can effectively attract and retain a sufficient number of skilled personnel to sustain
our expansion plans, which would have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations,
financial position and cash flows.
The following tables set forth the details of attrition rate for the years/period indicated:
Parameter For six-month period Fiscal Fiscal Fiscal
ended September 30, 2025 2024 2023
2025
Attrition Rate (%) 3.43% 13.82% 9.71% 8.34%
Note: Attrition rate has been calculated as the number of permanent employees who have resigned during the period, divided by
the number of permanent employees existing as at end of the period.
Our inability to attract and retain skilled personnel may impact our production, day-to-day operations
and in turn adversely impact our results of operations and financial results. Also see “Risk Factor – We
engage contract labour to carry out certain of our operations and we may be held responsible for
paying the wages of such workers, if the independent contractors through whom such workers are
hired default on their obligations, and such obligations could have an adverse effect on our results of
operations, cash flows and financial condition” on page 70.
26. Under-utilization of our production capacities could have an adverse effect on our business, future
prospects and future financial performance.
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the capacity utilization of our Manufacturing
Facility calculated on the basis of total installed production capacity and actual production, as of and for

*Not Annualized and is only reflecting the pro-rata capacity for six-month period ended September 30, 2025.
61Capacity utilization is affected by the availability of raw materials, demand for our products, customer
preferences, our ability to manage our inventory and implement our growth strategy of improving
operational efficiency and industry/ market conditions. In the event there is a decline in the demand for
our products, or if we face prolonged disruptions at our manufacturing facility including due to
interruptions due to any reason including disruption in the supply of electricity or as a result of labour
unrest, or are unable to procure sufficient raw materials, we would not be able to carry on the full capacity
utilization of our existing or future manufacturing plants, resulting in operational inefficiencies which
could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
27. Our Company’s revenue and procurement are linked to related party transactions. There has been
increase in such transactions during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, as compared to
the previous financial years. Any adverse development, including changes in relationship terms,
pricing or regulatory restrictions, may affect our financial performance.
A portion of our Company’s revenues and procurements is derived from transactions with related parties,
including Ventana Specialty Private Limited and Bhansali Bright Bars Private Limited. The purchase
from Bhansali Bright Bars Private Limited was ₹6,818.52 lakhs in Fiscal 2025 and ₹5,091.43 lakhs for
the six-month period ended September 30, 2025. Similarly, the sales was ₹7,693.86 lakhs in Fiscal 2025
and ₹ 5,564.21 lakhs for the six-month period ended September 30, 2025. The sales to Ventana Specialty
Private Limited were ₹1,872.81 lakhs in Fiscal 2025 and ₹128.45 lakhs for the six-month period ended
September 30, 2025. While these transactions have been undertaken at arm’s length and in the ordinary
course of business, such transactions with related parties exposes us to concentration risks. Any adverse
developments in these relationships, including changes in engagement terms, pricing arrangements,
operational or financial difficulties faced by such parties, or regulatory restrictions on related party
transactions, may adversely affect our business operations, financial condition, and results of operations.
28. In the past, our Company has entered into related party transactions, including recurring rent
payments during the Fiscal 2024 and 2023, pursuant to a rental arrangement in respect of premises
used by the Company, which may involve potential conflicts of interest
Our Company has entered into transactions with related parties, including relatives of our Directors and
members of the Promoter Group. During Fiscal 2024, and Fiscal 2023, our Company paid annual rent of
₹7.80 lakhs per annum to Ms. Hetal Jayesh Pithva, the wife of our Promoter and Director, Jayesh Pithva.
These payments were made pursuant to a rental arrangement for premises used by the Company.
However, as of September 30, 2025 and Fiscal 2025 the said premises are no longer in use by our
Company, and accordingly, no rental payments are being made to Hetal Jayesh Pithva from that date
onwards.
Although we believe that such transactions have been entered into in the ordinary course of business and
on commercial terms, there is no assurance that the terms of such transactions are comparable to those
that could have been obtained from unrelated third parties.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that we will not enter into similar or additional related party
transactions in the future, or that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have an
adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. such future transactions may also give
rise to potential conflicts of interest, especially if the terms not reviewed under appropriate governance
frameworks.
If any such related party transaction is found not to be in compliance with applicable laws, including the
Companies Act, 2013 and the SEBI Listing Regulations, or if there is any adverse perception regarding
the fairness of these transactions, it may result in reputational harm, and may adversely affect our
business, financial condition, results of operations, and the market price of the Equity Shares.
Additionally, any failure to adequately disclose or obtain necessary approvals for any material related
party transactions may constitute non-compliance with applicable corporate governance and regulatory
norms, potentially subjecting us and our Directors to penalties, restrictions or other disciplinary actions.
6229. Our inability to collect receivables from our customers or default on payment by them could result in
a reduction in our profits and affect our cash flow.
Our operations involve extending credit for extended periods of time to our customers in respect of our
products and consequently, we face the risk of non-receipt of these outstanding amounts in a timely
manner or at all, particularly in the absence of long-term arrangements with our customers. While we
have not adopted any credit policy, we typically operate on pre-sanctioned credit limits with customers
and cannot guarantee that our customers will not default on their payments. While we generally monitor
the ability of our customers to pay these open credit arrangements and limit the credit, we extend to what
is reasonable and based on an evaluation of each customer’s financial condition and payment history, we
may still experience losses because of a customer being unable to pay. Any inability to collect receivables
from our customers in a timely manner or at all in future, could adversely affect our working capital cycle
and cash flows. Also see, ageing of trade receivables under “Restated Financial Statements” on page 308.

*Trade receivable turnover is calculated as Revenue from operations divided by average trade receivables i.e Revenue from
operation / Avg Trade receivables.
Macroeconomic conditions could also result in financial difficulties, including insolvency or bankruptcy
of our customers and as a result could cause customers to delay payments to us or request modifications
to their payment arrangements, that could increase our receivables or affect our working capital
requirements or default on their payment obligations to us. During the six-month period ended September
30, 2025, and in the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, our bad debts were nil. An increase in bad debts or in
defaults by our customers may compel us to utilize greater amounts of our operating working capital and
result in increased financing costs, thereby adversely affecting our results of operations and cash flows.
30. We have had negative cash flows from investing and financing activities for the six-month period
ended September 30, 2025, Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, and may, in the future, experience similar
negative cash flows.
We have experienced negative cash flows for the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, Fiscals
2025, 2024, and 2023, from investing activities attributable to the purchase of property, plant and
equipment (PPE) and from financing activities primarily on account of finance costs. The following table
sets forth certain information relating to our cash flows for the periods indicated below:

Negative cash flows over extended periods, or significant negative cash flows in the short term, could
materially impact our ability to operate our business and implement our growth plans. We cannot assure
63you that we will not experience negative cash flow in the future. As a result, our business, financial
condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
31. We enter certain related party transactions in the ordinary course of our business and we cannot
assure you that such transactions will not adversely affect our business, results of operations,
profitability and margins, cash flow and financial condition.
We enter certain transactions with related parties in the ordinary course of our business and may continue
to enter related party transactions in the future. Our related party transactions include sales, purchase,
expenses, interest expenses, unsecured loan accepted, unsecured loan repaid, other income, loan given
to enterprise in which KMP or their relative can exercise significant influence among other things.
Our related party transactions, as a percentage of our revenue from operations, constituted 32.89%,
28.10%, 15.80%, and 8.83% in six-month period ended September 30, 2025, Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024
and Fiscal 2023, respectively. The transactions we may enter into with our related parties in the future
could potentially involve conflicts of interest, which 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, profitability and margins, cash flows and financial condition. While all such transactions have
been conducted on an arm’s length basis, in accordance with the Companies Act and other applicable
regulations pertaining to the evaluation and approval of such transactions, all related party transactions
that we may enter into post-listing will be subject to an approval by our Audit Committee, our Board, or
our Shareholders, as required under the Companies Act and the SEBI Listing Regulations.
The table below sets forth details of the absolute sum of sales transactions and the absolute sum of all
related party transactions and the percentage of such related party transactions to our revenue from

6432. We operate in a hazardous industry and are subject to certain business and operational risks
consequent to our operations, such as the manufacturing, usage and storage of hazardous substances
which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our operations are subject to hazards associated with the production of special and alloy steels, such as
the use, handling, processing, storage and transportation of scrap metal, alloys and gases, as well as
accidents such as leakage or spillages. In addition, our employees operate heavy machinery at our
Manufacturing Facility and accidents may occur while operating such machinery. These hazards can
cause personal injury and loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment,
environmental damage and may result in the suspension of operations and the imposition of civil and
criminal liabilities. As a result of past or future operations, claims for damages along with claims of
injury by employees or by the public due to exposure, or alleged exposure, to the hazardous materials
involved in our business may arise. Events like these could result in liabilities, or adversely affect our
reputation with suppliers, customers, regulators, employees and the public, which could in turn affect our
financial condition and business performance.
Although we attempt at all times to conduct our business with necessary safety and security precautions
and maintain what we believe to be adequate insurance, there is a that any hazard including an accident
may result in personal injury to our employees or other persons, destruction of property or equipment,
environmental damage, manufacturing or delivery delays, or may lead to suspension of our operations
and/ or imposition of civil or criminal liabilities. In particular, if operations at our facility were to be
disrupted as a result of any significant workplace accident, fire, explosion or other connected reasons,
our financial performance would be adversely affected as a result of our inability to meet customer
demand or committed delivery schedules for our products. During the six-month period ended September
30, 2025, and in past three Fiscals, we have encountered certain events of loss of stocks in progress due
to Fire, against which we made insurance claims which were particularly honoured. We also encountered
an instance of spillage of molten steel during the transfer from the furnace which caused fire. Although
there was no physical harm caused to our workers, we faced loss of stock in progress, which we claimed
under insurance and the same was fully honoured.
We set out below details of insurance claims made by our Company during the six-month period ended
September 30, 2025, and in last three Fiscals.

Any adverse event in future may cause interruptions in production may also increase our costs and reduce
our sales and may require us to make substantial capital expenditures to remedy the situation or to defend
litigation that we may become involved in as a result, which may negatively affect our profitability,
business, reputation, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects. Also see “Risk
Factor - Our insurance policies may not be adequate to cover all losses incurred in our business. An
inability to maintain adequate insurance cover to protect us from material adverse incidents in
connection with our business may adversely affect our operations and profitability” on page 79.
33. There may have been certain instances of irregularities, discrepancies and non-compliance with
respect to certain corporate actions taken by our Company in the past. Consequently, we may be
subject to regulatory actions and penalties.
As a Company, we are required to file different event-based e-forms with the Ministry of Corporate
65Affairs (“MCA”) under the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. There were certain
instances of secretarial non-compliances including delayed filing of different statutory e-forms
inadvertently due to non-functionality of MCA or otherwise under the Companies Act, 2013 in our
Company. We set out a list of such instances below:
Non-compliance Current Status Penalty / regulatory action

prescribed penalty in their personal capacity. While the penalty would not be material and we shall strive
to avoid making typographical errors in future, we cannot assure you that we would not be subject to any
penalties by regulatory authorities for aforesaid typographical error. We undertake to comply with action
initiated by ROC in future.
Further, we were converted into a public company in year 2007 and as a public company, under the
provisions of the erstwhile Companies Act, 1956 and Companies Act, 2013, we were required to
undertake certain corporate governance related actions, which we have inadvertently not complied.
In the past, there have also been certain instances of non-compliances under Companies Act. We set out
the details of such instances below:

The Hon'ble Regional Director has passed orders in the matter of Non-Appointment of Chief financial

lakh on the Company. Our Company has paid the same. However, there can be no assurance that we will
not be subject to such penalties or fines in the future. While we shall strive to comply with all the
applicable regulatory requirements there can be no assurance that there will be no delays or non-
compliances with the filing of certain documents in the future.
Further, our Company has not been able to trace e-form 32 for regularisation of Jayesh Natvarlal Pithva
as Director on May 27, 2007, and form 2 for Allotment of 10 equity share on March 31, 1996. We are
also unable to trace the bank statements of the Company for the period before the year 2006 and in this
regard, we have requested the concerned banks to share the bank statements. However, we have not
received any positive response from such banks. Therefore, we have relied on the corporate records such
as minutes of the meetings of the Company for ascertaining the details of the equity shares issued during
such period. Further, we have been unable to trace the aforesaid e-form despite commissioning a detailed
online and physical search at the RoC, through an independent practicing company secretary, to trace
records and filings available with the RoC and accordingly intimation to RoC was sent regarding the
untraceable forms. We cannot assure you that we will be able to trace the abovementioned secretarial
record in the future. Although no regulatory action/litigation is pending against us in relation to such
untraceable secretarial records, we cannot assure you that we will not be subject to penalties imposed by
regulatory authorities in this respect.
34. Our inability to effectively manage our growth or to successfully implement our business plan and
growth strategy could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition
and cash flows.
While we have experienced growth and have expanded our operations over during the six-month period
ended September 30, 2025, and last three Fiscals and anticipate that we will continue to potentially grow
and take advantage of market opportunities. For the Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, our profit
after tax has grown from ₹2,404.46 lakhs in Fiscal 2023 to ₹3,985.14 lakhs in Fiscal 2025, registering a
CAGR of 18.34% in last 3 years. We cannot assure you that our growth strategy will continue to be
successful or that we will be able to continue to expand further or at the same rate. The success of our
business will depend greatly on our ability to effectively implement our business and growth strategy.
Our growth strategy includes growing our product portfolio, strengthening our brand, deepening our
penetration in existing markets and expanding our presence in select new territories and expanding our
product portfolio by establishing the Proposed Facility. For further information, see “Our Business –
Strategies” on page 244.
Our ability to sustain growth depends primarily upon our ability to manage key issues such as our ability
to sustain existing relationships with our clients, ability to obtain raw materials at better prices, ability to
compete effectively, ability to scaling up our operations, adhering to high quality and execution
standards, our ability to expand our manufacturing capabilities and our presence in India as well as
globally, the effectiveness of our marketing initiatives, selecting and retaining skilled personnel.
Sustained growth also puts pressure on our ability to effectively manage and control historical and
emerging risks. Our inability to effectively manage any of these issues may adversely affect our business
growth and, as a result, impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Our
67success in implementing our growth strategies may be affected by our ability to identify new market
opportunities, develop products, increase our existing network of customers and ability to adapt to
changes in the Indian or international regulatory environment applicable to us. Many of these factors are
beyond our control and there can be no assurance that we will succeed in implementing our strategy. Any
change in government policies and regulations including any ban imposed on a particular product by the
respective governments, or any duties, pre-conditions or ban imposed by countries from where we source
certain raw materials may have an adverse impact on our operations. In addition, there may be delays in
the anticipated timing of activities related to such growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans;
increased difficulty and cost in implementing these efforts; and the incurrence of other unexpected costs
associated with operating the business. Any of these factors could adversely impact our results of
operations. If, for any reason, the benefits we realize are less than our estimates or the implementation
of these growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans adversely affect our operations or cost more or
take longer to effectuate than we expect, or if our assumptions prove inaccurate, our results of operations
may be materially adversely affected.
35. We are subject to strict quality requirements and any product defect issues or failure by us or our raw
material suppliers to comply with quality standards may lead to the cancellation of existing and future
orders, recalls and exposure to potential product liability claims.
We may face an inherent business risk of exposure to product defects and subsequent liability claims if
the use of any of our products results in personal injury or property damage, however, during the six-
month period ended September 30, 2025 and past three Fiscals, we have not faced any liability claim for
our products which has resulted in personal injury or property damage. The products manufactured by
us need to comply with certain standards as prescribed by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). We
may not be able to meet regulatory relevant quality standards in India, or the quality standards imposed
by our customers and applicable to our manufacturing processes, which could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. If any of our products
do not meet regulatory standards or are defective, we may be, inter alia, (i) responsible for damages
relating to any defective products, (ii) required to replace or recall such products or (iii) incur significant
costs to defend any such claims.
The failure by us or any of our suppliers to achieve or maintain compliance with regulatory requirements
or quality standards may disrupt our ability to supply products sufficient to meet demand until
compliance is achieved or until a new supplier has been identified and evaluated. The quality of raw
materials will have an impact on the quality of the finished products and in turn affect our image, business
and revenue. There is no assurance that our products will always meet the satisfaction of our customers’
quality standards. Our failure to comply with applicable regulations could cause adverse consequences
to be imposed on us, including fines, injunctions, civil penalties, the refusal of regulatory authorities to
grant approval or renewal, delays, suspensions or withdrawal of approvals, license revocation, seizures
or recalls of products, operating restrictions and criminal prosecutions, all of which could harm our
business. There can be no assurance that if we need to engage new suppliers to satisfy our business
requirements, we will be able to locate new suppliers in compliance with regulatory requirements in a
timely manner, or at all. Failure to do so could lead to the cancellation of existing and future orders and
have a material adverse effect on our business and revenue.
36. In addition to our Manufacturing Facilities, we enter arrangements with third-party manufacturers
on a job work basis and therefore, we are subject to risks associated with the third-party manufacturing
processes.
We enter arrangements with third-party manufacturers who manufacture certain products such as bright
bars and wire rods on white label basis (white label basis refers to a business arrangement where an entity
produces goods that are sold by another entity as its own) as per our requirements. We select and evaluate
these third-party manufacturers based on certain criteria including the quality of products produced,
reputation and delivery standards. If there are any delays or disruptions in the manufacturing facility of
third-party manufacturers, our ability to deliver certain products may be affected. Any of our third-party
manufacturers’ failure to adhere to agreed timelines, technical specifications, quality, whether due to
their inability to comply with, or obtain, regulatory approvals, or otherwise, may result in delays and
disruptions to our supplies, increased costs, delayed payments for our products and damage to our
68reputation leading to an adverse effect on our results of operations.
We are exposed to the risk of these third party manufacturers failing to adhere to the standards set for
them by us and statutory and/ or regulatory bodies in respect of factors such as quality, quantum of
production, weights and measures and safety standards and non-compliance of relevant rules and
regulations, and any consequent action by such statutory and/ or regulatory bodies or otherwise, could
adversely affect our business operations, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, due to
reasons such as shortage of supply, product liability claims and product recalls. This may also result in
lost confidence on the part of our customers and adversely affect our reputation. Further, any delay or
failure on the part of the third-party manufacturers to deliver the products in a timely manner or to meet
our quality standards by such third-party manufacturers, would result in adverse effects on our business
operations, results of operation, cash flows and financial condition. Any litigation involving such third
parties may have a material adverse effect on our reputation.
Additionally, the use of third-party manufacturers is subject to certain risks, such as our inability to
continuously monitor the quality, safety and manufacturing processes at such third-party manufacturing
facility. While we have stipulated quality assurance and quality control standards for our third-party
manufacturers and we have not encountered any instances of third-party manufacturing units failing to
comply with our quality standards during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and last three
Fiscals, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain stipulated quality standards in respect of
the products that such third-party.
37. We operate in a competitive business environment. Competition from existing players and new
entrants and consequent pricing pressures could have a material adverse effect on our business growth
and prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
The Indian steel industry is highly competitive. We believe that the key competitive factors affecting our
business include product quality, capacity creation and utilization, changes in manufacturing technology,
logistics feasibility, workforce skill and productivity, operating costs, pricing power with large buyers,
access to funding, the degree of regulation and access to a regular supply of raw materials. Maintaining
or increasing our market share will depend on effective marketing initiatives and our ability to anticipate
and respond to various competitive factors affecting the industry, including our ability to improve our
manufacturing process and techniques, introduce new products, respond to the pricing strategies of our
competitors, and adapt to changes in technology and changes in customer preferences. We cannot assure
prospective investors that we will be able to compete effectively against our current or emerging
competitors with respect to each of these key competitive factors. Competition from global steel
producers with expanded production capacities, new market entrants, introduction of backward
integration by other players could result in significant price competition, declining margins and a
reduction in revenue. For example, these companies may be able to negotiate preferential prices for
certain products or receive discounted prices for bulk purchases of certain raw materials that may not be
available to us.
In addition, our competitors may have lower leverage and/or access to cheaper sources of funding. Larger
competitors may also use their resources, which may be greater than ours, against us in a variety of ways,
including by making additional acquisitions, investing more aggressively in product development and
capacity and displacing demand for our export products. The market is still highly fragmented, and if the
trend towards consolidation continues, we could be placed in a disadvantageous competitive position
relative to other steel producers and our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash
flows and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, a variety of known
and unknown events could have a material adverse impact on our ability to compete.
Some of our local competitors may possess an advantage over us due to various reasons, such as
specialization in production of value-added or niche products, a stronger distribution network and greater
presence in certain markets. While we are currently strategically located in Gujarat, any further entrants
in the region with more resources or deeper relationships with distributors/customers compared to us
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash
flows and financial condition. Failure by us to compete effectively could have a material adverse effect
on our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash flow and financial condition. We
69may also face competition from new companies that are emerging which may attempt to obtain a share
in our existing markets. Based on these factors, amongst other things, there can be no assurance that we
will be able to compete successfully in the future against our existing or potential competitors or that
increased competition with respect to our activities may not have an adverse effect on our business,
results of operations, profitability and margins, cash flow and financial condition.
38. Any disruption or shortage of essential utilities could disrupt our manufacturing operations and
increase our production costs, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
We require power and fuel to operate our manufacturing facility and energy costs represent a key
component of the production costs for our operations. We meet our power requirement for our
Manufacturing Facility from the state electricity board. We source our fuel requirements from third
parties. Further, while we use groundwater, any shortage or non-availability of water could require us to
arrange water supply from third party or may also result in temporary shut-down of a part, or all, of our
operations.

2025.
If our power, water or fuel costs were to continue to rise, or if our electricity supply arrangements were
disrupted, our operations could be disrupted, and our profitability could decline. If the per unit cost of
electricity is increased by the state electricity board where our manufacturing facility is located, then our
power cost will consequently increase. Inadequate electricity and fuel could result in interruption or
suspension of our production operations. In particular, any significant increase in the cost of electricity/
diesel could result in an unexpected increase in production cost.
Frequent production shutdowns lead to increased costs associated with restarting production and
corresponding loss of production, any of which would adversely affect our business, results of operations,
profitability and margins, cash flows and financial condition. While we have not experienced any major
interruptions to our power, fuel or water supplies in the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and
last three Fiscals, we cannot assure you that interruptions would not occur due to any events unforeseen
by us.
39. We engage contract labour to carry out certain of our operations and we may be held responsible for
paying the wages of such workers, if the independent contractors through whom such workers are
hired default on their obligations, and such obligations could have an adverse effect on our results of
operations, cash flows and financial condition.
We engage independent contractors through whom we engage contract labourers for the performance of
certain functions at our Existing Manufacturing Facility for the performance of non-core tasks. As of
September 30, 2025, our company engaged 61 Contract workers. The brief details of contract labour
engaged, and cost incurred towards such engagement for six-month period ended September 30, 2025,
and last three Fiscals is set out as below;

Although we do not engage these labourers directly, we are responsible for any wage and statutory
payments to be made to such labourers in the event of default by such independent contractors. Any
requirement to fund their wage requirements may have an adverse impact on our results of operations
and our financial conditions. In addition, we may be liable for or exposed to litigations, sanctions,
penalties or losses arising from accidents or damages caused by our workers or contractors. In the six-
month period ended September 30, 2025, and last three Fiscals, we have not faced any situation where
we were required to fund their wages. However, we cannot assure that we will not face any such situation
in future.
40. The production of steel products is capital intensive, with long gestation periods.
The production of steel is capital intensive, with a high proportion of fixed costs to total costs. We seek
to maintain high-capacity utilization at each of our Manufacturing Facility. Where capacity exceeds
demand in the market, there is a tendency for the prices of the steel products to fall sharply if supply is
largely maintained. Conversely, expansion of capacity requires long lead times so that, if demand grows
strongly, prices increase rapidly, as unutilized capacity may be brought on line as quickly. With
increasing interest costs and high proportion of fixed costs to total costs leading to low-margins, the steel
industry is faced with long gestation periods. Further, the Proposed Facility may require long lead times
which may impact on our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash flow and
financial condition.
While we have taken steps to reduce operating costs in the past, we may be affected by significant price
volatility, particularly in the event of excess production capacity in the global steel market and incur
operating losses. Moreover, we cannot assure you that we would be able to achieve economies of scale
by efficiently carrying out our operations. Any production overcapacity and oversupply in the steel
industry would likely cause increased competition in steel markets which would likely lead to reduced
profit margins for steel producers and would also likely have a negative effect on our ability to increase
steel production in general. Our ability to recover the fixed costs incurred and reduce the period of
gestation, depends on, among other factors, market demand and supply, new laws or regulations,
developments in technology, retention of our customers, consolidation of our competitors, wars, natural
disasters and other similar events and fluctuations in exchange rates. There can be no assurance that we
will be able to continue to compete in such an economic environment or that a prolonged stagnation of
the global economy or production overcapacity will not have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations, financial condition or prospects.
41. As a business strategy, our Company intends to expand its international footprints, which may be
subject to risks and challenges associated with international market.
As part of our strategy, we intend to further expand our international footprint. For details, see “Our
Business – Our Strategies” on page 244. Accordingly, we may face additional risks with establishing
and conducting operations in new geographic locations. Competing successfully in international markets
71may require additional resources due to the unique aspects of each geographic market. Some of our
competitors in such markets may have greater resources which may make their products more
competitive than ours. We cannot assure you that we will be able to grow our business in such new
geographic markets. The risk involved in entering new markets and expanding operations may be higher
than expected, and we may face significant competition in such markets. We have limited or no
experience in such new markets. Our inability to grow our business in such additional geographic areas
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash
flows and financial condition. Also see, “Risk Factor – A portion of our revenue is denominated in
foreign currencies which are unhedged and going forward, we intend to increase our export sales. As
a result, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange risks which may adversely impact our results
of operations” on page 51.
42. We have not made any alternate arrangements for meeting our capital requirements for the Objects
of the Offer. Any shortfall in raising / meeting the same could adversely affect our growth plans,
operations and financial performance.
As on date, we have not made any alternate arrangements for meeting our capital requirements for the
objects of the Offer. We meet our capital requirements through our bank finance, unsecured loans, owned
funds and internal accruals. Any shortfall in our net owned funds, internal accruals and our inability to
raise debt in future would result in us being unable to meet our capital requirements, which in turn will
negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations. Further we have not identified any
alternative source of funding and hence any failure or delay on our part to raise money from this Offer
or any shortfall in the Offer proceeds may delay the implementation schedule and could adversely affect
our growth plans. For further details please refer to the chapter titled “Objects of the Offer” on page 155.
43. Errors in forecasting demand for our products could result in failure to manage our inventory and
misallocation of production capacity, which in turn, could lead to decreased efficiency, increased cost
and lost opportunity which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations,
profitability and margins, cash flows and financial condition.
The results of operations of our business are dependent on our ability to effectively manage our inventory
and stocks. To effectively manage our inventory, we must be able to accurately estimate customer
demand and supply requirements and manufacture and trade inventory accordingly. If our management
has misjudged expected customer demand it could adversely impact the results by causing either a
shortage of products or an accumulation of excess inventory. Further, if we fail to sell the inventory we
manufacture, we may be required to write-down our inventory or pay our suppliers without new
purchases, or create additional vendor financing, which could have an adverse impact on our business,
results of operations, profitability and margins, cash flow and financial condition. We estimate our sales
based on the forecast, demand and requirements and also on the customer specifications.
Natural disasters such as earthquakes, extreme climatic or weather conditions such as floods or droughts
may adversely impact our inventory levels. In addition, disruptions to the delivery of products to our
customers may occur for reasons such as poor handling, transportation bottlenecks, or labor strikes,
which could lead to delayed or lost deliveries or damaged products and disrupt supply of these products.
To improve our line capability, we try to stock our inventory at our existing manufacturing facility. An
optimal level of inventory is important to our business as it allows us to respond to customer demand
effectively. If we over-stock inventory, our capital requirements will increase, and we will incur
additional financing costs. If we under-stock inventory, our ability to meet customer demand and our
operating results may be adversely affected. Any mismatch between our planned and actual sales could
lead to potential excess inventory or out-of stock situations, either of which could have an adverse effect
on our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash flow and financial condition.
44. We do not own some of the Properties which we presently use for our business purpose.
The premises, including our manufacturing facility and registered office are situated on owned premises.
The following table sets forth details of our leased properties which we use for business purposes, as of
the date of this Prospectus:

If we are unable to continue or renew such rental / lease arrangements on the same or similar terms or
find alternate properties on lease on similar terms or at all, it may affect our business operations. For
information relating to properties that we have leased, see “Our Business – Property” on page 263.
45. We are dependent on third-party transportation providers for the supply of materials for our
manufacturing process and delivery of our finished products.
Our success depends on the supply and transport of the raw material required to our manufacturing
facility from suppliers and of our finished products from our manufacturing facility to our customers,
which are subject to various uncertainties and risks. We use third-party transportation providers for the
delivery of materials to manufacturing facility and our finished products to customers. Transportation
strikes, if any, could have an adverse effect on supplies and deliveries to our customers and from our
suppliers. Further, on account of the COVID-19 pandemic, operations of these third-party transportation
providers were affected from time to time.
In addition, materials and components, as well as our products transported to customers, may be lost or
damaged in transit for various reasons including occurrence of accidents or natural disasters. There may
also be a delay in delivery of materials and products which may also affect our business and results of
operations negatively. In the event we fail to maintain a sufficient volume of materials and delivery of
such materials to us is delayed, we may be unable to meet orders in a timely manner or at all. Any such
inability may result in loss of sales opportunities that our competitors may capitalize on, thereby
adversely affecting our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Any
compensation received from insurers or third-party transportation providers may be insufficient to cover
the cost of any delays and will not repair damage to our relationships with our affected customers.
Although we have not encountered any instances of material delays during six-month period ended
September 30, 2025, and in the last three fiscals, we cannot assure you that we will not experience such
delays in the future. We may also be affected by an increase in fuel costs, as it will have a corresponding
impact on freight charges levied by our third-party transportation providers. The table below sets forth
our transportation, freight, duty and handling charges as a percentage of our revenue from operations for
the year/period indicated:

Additionally, if we lose one or more of our transportation providers, we may not be able to obtain terms
as favourable as those we receive from the third-party transportation providers that we currently use,
which in turn would increase our costs and thereby adversely affect our operating results. While we have
not encountered any instance in the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and the last three Fiscals,
we cannot assure you that such an instance will not arise in the future. Further, if our transportation
providers do not carry sufficient insurance coverage, any losses that may arise during the transportation
process will have to be claimed under our insurance policies. There can be no assurance that we will
receive compensation for any such claims in a timely manner or at all, and consequently, any such loss
may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
46. Failure to manage our inventory could have an adverse effect on our net sales, profitability, cash flow
and liquidity
Our inventories for six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and last 3 (three) Fiscals are as follows:
Particulars For the six-month Fiscal 2025 Fiscal Fiscal
period ended September 2024 2023

Note: As certified by the Statutory Auditors M/s Ruparel & Bavadiya (FRN:126260W) through certificate dated December 30,
2025.
*Inventory Turnover is calculated as Revenue from operations divided by average inventories i.e. Revenue from operation /
Inventories.
Our results of operations are dependent on our ability to effectively manage our inventory. To effectively
manage our inventory, we must be able to accurately estimate customer demand and supply situation and
manufacture/ purchase additional inventory accordingly. If our management fails to anticipate expected
customer demand it could adversely impact the results of operations by causing either a shortage of
inventory leading to loss of revenue and profits or an accumulation of excess inventory. Further, if we
fail to sell the inventory we manufacture or purchase, we may be required to recycle our inventory, which
would lead to loss of material, additional manufacturing costs and subsequently, an adverse impact on
our revenue, profit and cash flows.
47. Our Company will not receive any proceeds from the Offer for Sale.
The Offer comprises an Offer for Sale by the Selling Shareholder. The Selling Shareholder will receive
the entire proceeds from the Offer for Sale (after deducting applicable Offer related expenses) and our
Company will not receive any part of the proceeds of the Offer. For further information, see “The Offer”
and “Objects of the Offer” on pages 94 and 155 respectively.
7448. We require certain approvals and licenses in the ordinary course of business and are required to
comply with certain rules and regulations to operate our business, any failure to obtain, retain and
renew such approvals and licences or comply with such rules and regulations may adversely affect
our operations.
We require several statutory and regulatory permits, licenses and approvals to operate our business. Many
of these approvals are subject to periodical renewal. Any failure to renew the approvals that may expire,
or to apply for the required approvals, licenses, registrations or permits, or any suspension or revocation
of any of the approvals, licenses, registrations and permits that have been or may be issued to us, could
result in delaying the operations of our business, which may adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects. We believe that we have obtained all the material licenses
required for running our business and operations.
While, we have not had any material instances of failure to obtain, maintain or renew approvals, licenses,
and registrations required to conduct our businesses in the past six-month period ended September 30 ,
2025 and three Fiscals, we cannot assure you that approvals, licenses and registrations will be
successfully granted or renewed in a timely manner or at all in the future. We also cannot assure you that
our approvals and consents will not be suspended or revoked in the future. Failure to obtain, maintain or
renew the approvals, licenses and registrations required to operate our business could adversely affect
our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Further, some of our permits, licenses and approvals are subject to several conditions and we cannot
provide any assurance that we will be able to continuously meet such conditions or be able to prove
compliance with such conditions to the statutory authorities, which may lead to the cancellation,
revocation or suspension of relevant permits, licenses or approvals which may result in the interruption
of our operations and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows
and results of operations. For more details relating to licenses and approvals relating to our business, see
“Government and Other Statutory Approvals” on page 425 .
49. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including the withdrawal of certain
benefits or adverse application of tax laws, may adversely affect our business, prospects, results of
operations and cash flows.
In India, our business is governed by various laws and regulations including, amongst others, the Bureau
of Indian Standards Act, 2016, the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, the Indian Registration Act, 1908, the
Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, various laws relating to employment and the Consumer Protection
Act, 1986, Factories Act 1948, Employees Provident Fund Scheme, 1952, Employees’ State Insurance
Act, 1948. For regulations and policies applicable to our Company, see “Key Regulations and Policies”
on page 265.
While we endeavour to comply with all the applicable laws, there can be no assurance that we will be in
compliance at all times with such laws, regulations and the terms and conditions of any such consent or
permits. If we violate or fail to comply adequately with these requirements, we could be fined or
otherwise sanctioned by the relevant regulators.
As of date we are not under any obligation under Export Promotion Capital Goods. However, we derive
benefits under Duty Drawback. As on six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and Fiscal 2025, we
derived duty drawback benefit amounting to Nil and ₹22.57 lakhs, respectively. Any future amendments
to these acts or schemes may affect our ability to claim benefits that we have historically benefited from,
and such benefits may no longer be available to us. Such amendments would have an effect on our export
revenue margins and profitability
50. Our ability to access capital at attractive costs depends on our credit ratings. Non-availability of credit
ratings or a poor rating may restrict our access to capital and thereby adversely affect our business,
financial conditions, cash flows and results of operations
The cost and availability of our capital depends on our credit ratings. The table below sets forth details
of our Company's credit ratings during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and last three
75Fiscals:

Credit ratings reflect the opinion of the rating agency on our management, track record, diversified
clientele, increase in scale and operations and margins, medium term revenue visibility and operating
cycle. While there has been no downgrading in our credit ratings in the six-month period ended
September 30, 2025 and last three Fiscals, however, any revision or change in our credit ratings could
increase borrowing costs, result in an event of default under our financing arrangements and adversely
affect our access to capital and debt markets, which could in turn adversely affect our interest margins,
our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
51. Failure to maintain the confidentiality of our technical knowledge could undermine our competitive
advantage.
Our employees possess adequate insights into our commercial decisions and business development
strategies, which represent a significant asset that may not be sufficiently protected by employment
agreements. Consequently, we cannot guarantee that this knowledge will remain confidential over time.
Despite taking reasonable precautions, both contractual and otherwise, there is still a risk that proprietary
information could be leaked, either inadvertently or intentionally. Many employees have access to
sensitive design and production information, and we cannot assure that this information will remain
protected. Additionally, some employees may leave to join competitors, and while we will attempt to
enforce confidentiality obligations outlined in our staff rules, we cannot ensure their successful
enforcement.
Although we have not experienced any leaks during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and
in the past three Fiscals, any future exposure of our confidential technical information could harm our
competitive position. If competitors are able to replicate or exploit our technology, it could be difficult
and costly for us to seek legal protection. Therefore, any leakage of confidential information could
adversely affect our business, operational results, financial condition, and future prospects.
52. The steel industry is cyclical in nature. Pricing in the steel industry is subject to market demand,
volatility and economic conditions.
Steel prices fluctuate based on a number of factors, such as the availability and cost of raw material, steel
demand, worldwide production and capacity, fluctuation in the volume of steel imports / exports,
transportation costs and various social and political factors. Low steel prices may adversely affect the
results of operations of the industry, resulting in lower revenue and margins. We could also be affected
by the introduction of or increase in the levy of import tariffs in India, or in the countries to which we
export or plan to export our products, changes in trade agreements between countries, additional tariffs
in the form of countervailing duty and anti-dumping duty on a number of items imported in India. Any
such measure may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. In
76addition, the volatility, length and nature of business cycles affecting the steel and steel products industry
may become increasingly unpredictable, and the recurrence of any major downturn in the industry may
have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, profitability and margins, cash
flows and financial condition.
53. We are subject to restrictive covenants under our financing agreements that could limit our flexibility
in managing our business or to use cash or other assets. Any defaults could lead to acceleration of
our repayment obligations, cross defaults under other financing agreements, termination of one or
more of our financing agreements or force us to sell our assets, which may adversely affect our cash
flows, business, results of operations and financial condition.
We have entered into agreements for secured short term and long-term borrowings with certain lenders.
As on December 03, 2025, an aggregate of ₹14,136.09 lakhs was outstanding out of which ₹ 13,117.44
lakhs were secured borrowings from financial institutions. We also propose to pre-pay or repay certain
amount of our unsecured loan of financial institutions from the Net Proceeds. As on December 03, 2025,
an aggregate of ₹1,018.65 lakhs was unsecured loans from financial institutions were outstanding. For
details, see “Objects of the Offer” on page 155. The credit facilities availed by us are secured by way of
mortgage of fixed assets, hypothecation of current assets (both present and future), and personal
guarantees given by some of our Promoters. For details, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 393.
In case we are not able to pay our dues in time, the same may amount to a default under the loan
documentation and all the penal and termination provisions therein would get triggered and the loans
granted to us may be recalled with penal interest. This could severely affect our operations and financial
condition. Our financing agreements include certain covenants that require us to obtain lender consents
prior to carrying out certain corporate activities and entering into certain transactions, such as, incurring
any additional borrowings, undertaking capital expenditure, diversifying business, advance or repay
loans, affect any dividend pay-out in case of delays in debt servicing, affect any change in shareholding
pattern and management control of the Company amongst others. In addition, any breach of financial or
non-financial covenant may qualify as an event of default under financing agreements.
We cannot assure you that the lenders will not seek to enforce their rights in respect of any breach by us
under our financing agreements. Any failure to comply with any condition or covenant under our
financing agreements that is not waived by the lenders or is not otherwise cured by us, may lead to a
termination of our credit facilities and/or acceleration of all amounts due under the relevant credit facility.
Further, such breach and relevant actions by the lenders could also trigger enforcement action by other
lenders pursuant to cross-default provisions under certain of our financing agreements. Further, if the
obligations under any of our financing agreements are accelerated, we may have to dedicate a substantial
portion of our cash flow from operations to make payments under the financing documents, thereby
reducing the availability of cash for our operations. In addition, the lenders may enforce their security
interest in certain of our assets. Moreover, during the period in which we are in default, we may face
difficulties in raising further loans. Any future inability to comply with the covenants under our financing
agreements or to obtain the necessary consents required thereunder may lead to termination of our credit
facilities, levy of penal interest, acceleration of all amounts due under such financing agreements and
enforcement of any security provided. Any of these circumstances would have an adverse effect our
business, results of operation and financial condition. Further, the said credit facilities can be
renewed/enhanced/cancelled/suspended/reduced and the terms and conditions of the same can be altered
by the lending banks, at their discretion. In the event, the lenders refuse to renew / enhance the credit
facilities and/or cancel / suspend / reduce the said credit facilities and/or alter the terms and conditions
to the derogation of our Company, then our existing operations as well as our future business prospects
and financial condition may be severely affected.
54. The availability of counterfeit products, such as products passed off as our products by others, and
any failure to protect or enforce our rights to own or use trademarks and brand name and identity
could have an adverse effect on our business and competitive position.
Our efforts to protect our intellectual properties may not be adequate, and our operations could be
adversely affected. In particular, third parties could imitate our brand name or pass off their own products
as ours, including registering trademark that may be confused with ours, producing similar products or
77counterfeit or pirated products. As a result, our market share could be reduced due to replacement of
demand for our products and deficiency in the quality of the similar or counterfeit products will adversely
affect our goodwill and reputation. We may also have to incur significant costs to remedy or manage
such situations. Any impact on our ability to continue to promote our brand or any significant damage to
our brand’s image could materially and adversely affect our sales and profits. However, we cannot assure
you that there can be no assurance that we will not encounter any issue relating to counterfeit and pirated
products in the future. If such a case arises in future, the time and attention required for defending such
claims and complaints may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows.
55. We have availed unsecured loans from one of our Promoters that are recallable, at any time.
Our Company has availed unsecured loans from one of our Promoters i.e. Shankarlal Deepchand Mehta,
amounting to ₹18.65 lakhs as of December 3, 2025, that is repayable on demand, and which may be
recalled by such lender at any time. We set out below the details of said unsecured loans in the table
below:
(₹ in lakhs)

Note: As certified by the Statutory Auditors M/s Ruparel & Bavadiya (FRN:126260W) through certificate dated December 30,
2025.
In the event that such lender seeks repayment of any such unsecured loans, our Company would need to
find alternative sources of financing, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms. As
a result, any such demand may materially and adversely affect our business, cash flows, financial
condition and results of operations. For further information on unsecured loans relating to our business
and operations, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 393.
56. Failure or disruption of our IT systems may unfavourably affect our business and operations.
We have implemented certain information technology (“IT”) systems to cover key areas of our
operations. We are dependent on technology in relation to security and financial accounting. We use
modern software i.e. Tally Editlog, Relyon Payroll, Relyon Saral GST, Relyon TDS for our accounting
and invoicing purposes, etc. We rely on our IT infrastructure to provide us with connectivity and data
backup across our location and functions. We have taken necessary measures to ensure cyber security,
data protection from virus attacks and hacking and disaster recovery servers and systems for data retrieval
and business continuity. While we have not encountered any instances of disruption in the operation due
to failure of IT systems during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and last three Fiscals, we
cannot assure that we will not face such situations in the future. Any failure or disruption in the operation
of these systems or the loss of data due to such failure or disruption (including due to human error or
sabotage) may affect our ability to plan, track, record and analyze work in progress and sales, process
financial information, manage our creditors, debtors or otherwise conduct our normal business
operations, which may increase our costs and otherwise affect our business operations.
57. Our Promoters have provided personal guarantees as security for certain facilities availed by our
Company. If these guarantees are revoked, we may be unable to procure alternative guarantees
satisfactory to our lenders, which may adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows
and financial condition
Our Promoters, Shankarlal Deepchand Mehta, Babulal D. Mehta and Jayesh Natvarlal Pithva have
provided personal guarantees as security for certain facilities availed by our Company. We have set out
the details of such personal guarantees below.

# Loan originally sanctioned by Punjab National Bank, subsequently taken over by State Bank of India.
For further details, see “Financial Indebtedness” on page 393. If any of the guarantees are revoked, our
lenders may require alternative guarantees or cancel such facilities, entailing repayment of amounts
outstanding under such facilities. If we are unable to procure alternative guarantees satisfactory to our
lenders, we may need to seek alternative sources of capital, which may not be available to us at
commercially reasonable terms or at all, or to agree to more onerous terms under our financing
agreements, which may limit our operational flexibility. Accordingly, our business, results of operations,
cash flows and financial condition may be adversely affected by the revocation of all or any of the
guarantees provided by our Promoters, Shankarlal Deepchand Mehta, Babulal D. Mehta and Jayesh
Natvarlal Pithva in connection with our Company’s borrowing.
58. Our insurance policies may not be adequate to cover all losses incurred in our business. An inability
to maintain adequate insurance cover to protect us from material adverse incidents in connection with
our business may adversely affect our operations and profitability.
We maintain insurance cover for our inventory to cover all normal risks associated with operations of
our business, including such as corporate cover, industrial all risk, public liability insurance, health
insurance, burglary insurance, standard fire and special peril policy, workmen compensation policy. We
may not have identified every risk and further may not be insured against every risk because such risks
are either uninsurable or not insurable on commercially acceptable terms, including operational risk that
may occur and the occurrence of an event that causes losses in excess of the limits specified in our
policies, or losses arising from events or risks not covered by insurance policies such as COVID-19 and
other pandemics, or due to the same being inadequate, could materially harm our cash flows, financial
condition and future results of operations. We cannot provide any assurance that our insurance will be
sufficient or effective under all circumstances and against all hazards or liabilities to which we may be
subjected to. In addition, our insurance coverage expires from time to time. We apply for the renewal of
our insurance coverage in the normal course of our business, but we cannot assure you that such renewals
will be granted in a timely manner, at acceptable cost or at all.
During the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and in past three Fiscals, we have encountered
a spillage of molten steel during the transfer from the furnace which caused a fire. Although there was
no physical harm caused to our workers, we faced loss of stock in progress, which we claimed under
insurance and the same was fully honored. The details of insurance claimed made and honoured are set
out as below;

Note: As certified by the Statutory Auditors M/s Ruparel & Bavadiya (FRN:126260W) through certificate dated December 30,
2025.
Our Company’s insurance cover is ₹22,124.93 lakhs including ₹17,336.63 lakhs in respect of its gross
block of property, plant and equipment, capital work in-progress, investment properties and inventories
which stood at ₹ 33,062.94 lakhs as on six-month period ended September 30, 2025. Consequently, our
Company’s insurance cover in respect of its gross block of property, plant and equipment, capital work
in-progress and inventories as on six-month period ended September 30, 2025 stood at 52.44%
approximately.
To the extent that we suffer loss or damage, or successful assertion of one or more large claims against
us for events for which we are not insured, or which exceeds our insurance coverage or where our
insurance claims are rejected, the loss would have to be borne by us and our results of operations,
financial performance and cash flows could be adversely affected. For details, see “Our Business –
Insurance” on page 261.
Further, we do not obtain insurance coverage for our third-parties manufacturers engaged on job-work
basis under arrangement for procurement of production outputs. We could suffer losses should any
unforeseen incident occurs such as fire, flood, and accidents affect facilities of our third-party contract
manufacturers for which they may not be insured adequately or at all.
59. If we are unable to establish and maintain effective internal controls and compliance system, our
business and reputation could be adversely affected.
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal 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 past material instances of failure to maintain effective internal
controls and compliance system. 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.
Further, our operations are subject to anti-corruption laws and regulations. These laws generally prohibit
us and our employees and intermediaries from bribing, being bribed or making other prohibited payments
to government officials or other persons to obtain or retain business or gain some other business
advantage. We participate in collaborations and relationships with third parties whose actions could
potentially subject us to liability under these laws or other local anti-corruption laws. While our code of
conduct requires our employees and intermediaries to comply with all applicable laws, and we continue
to enhance our policies and procedures in an effort to ensure compliance with applicable anti-corruption
laws and regulations, these measures may not prevent the breach of such anti-corruption laws, as there
are risks of such breaches in emerging markets. If we are not in compliance with applicable anti-
corruption laws, we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties, disgorgement and other sanctions and
remedial measures, and legal expenses, which could have an adverse impact on our business, financial
condition, results of operations and liquidity. Likewise, any investigation of any potential violations of
anti-corruption laws by the relevant authorities could also have an adverse impact on our business and
80reputation. As we continue to grow, there can be no assurance that there will be no other instances of
such inadvertent non-compliances with statutory requirements, which may subject us to regulatory
action, including monetary penalties, which may adversely affect our business and reputation.
60. Certain sections of this Prospectus disclose information from the D&B Report which has been
commissioned and paid for by us exclusively in connection with the Offer and any reliance on such
information for making an investment decision in the Offer is subject to inherent risks.
Certain sections of this Prospectus include information based on, or derived from, the Industry Research
Report on “Industry Report on Indian Stainless Steel” dated November 29, 2025 prepared and issued by
D&B India, which has been exclusively commissioned and paid for by our Company in connection with
the Offer pursuant to an engagement letters dated May 23, 2024 and May 2, 2025. D&B India is an
independent agency which has no relationship with our Company, our Promoters, Promoter group entities
and any of our Directors or KMPs or SMPs.
Further, D&B Report is prepared based on information as of specific dates and may no longer be current
or reflect current trends. Certain information in this Report is subject to limitations and is also based on
estimates, projections, forecasts and assumptions that may prove to be incorrect. The D&B Report uses
certain methodologies for market sizing and forecasting. Furthermore, the D&B Report is not a
recommendation to invest/ disinvest in any company covered in the D&B Report. Accordingly, Investors
should not place undue reliance or base their investment decision solely on this information.
In view of the foregoing, you may not be able to seek legal recourse for any losses resulting from
undertaking any investment in the Offer pursuant to reliance on the information in this Prospectus based
on, or derived from, the D&B Report. You should consult your own advisors and undertake an
independent assessment of information in this Prospectus based on, or derived from, the D&B Report
before making any investment decision regarding the Offer. For further details, see “Industry Overview”
on page 192.
61. Majority of the Directors of the Company do not have experience of being a director of a public listed
company.
The Majority of Company’s Directors do not have prior experience serving on the board of a publicly
listed company. Accordingly, they have limited exposure to management of affairs of the listed company
which inter-alia entails several compliance requirements and scrutiny of affairs by shareholders,
regulators and the public at large that is associated with being a listed company. As a listed company, the
Company will require to adhere strict standards pertaining to accounting, corporate governance and
reporting that it did not require as an unlisted company. The Company will also be subject to the SEBI
Listing Regulations, which will require it to file audited annual and unaudited quarterly reports with
respect to its business and financial condition. If the Company experiences any delays, we may fail to
satisfy its reporting obligations and/or it may not be able to readily determine and accordingly report any
changes in its results of operations as promptly as other listed companies.
Further, as a publicly listed company, the Company will need to maintain and improve the effectiveness
of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, including keeping
adequate records of daily transactions. In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of the
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, significant
resources and management attention will be required. As a result, the Board of Directors of the Company
may have to provide increased attention to such procedures and their attention may be diverted from our
business concerns, which may adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial
condition. In addition, we may need to hire additional legal and accounting staff with appropriate
experience and technical accounting knowledge, but we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so
in a timely and efficient manner.
8162. Our funding requirements and the proposed deployment of Net Proceeds have not been appraised by
any bank or financial institution or any other independent agency and our management will have
broad discretion over the use of the Net Proceeds.
We intend to use Net Proceeds from the Offer towards (a) Funding capital expenditure requirements for
expansion of the existing manufacturing facility at Panchmahal district, Gujarat through forward
integration and diversification of product portfolio i.e., Stainless Steel Seamless Pipes; and (b) Full or
part repayment and/or prepayment of certain outstanding borrowings availed by our Company; and (c)
general corporate purposes. For details of the objects of the Offer, see “Objects of the Offer” on page
155. The funding requirement and deployment of the Net Proceeds mentioned as a part of the Objects of
the Offer are based on current circumstances of our business, prevailing market conditions, and are
subject to changes. The estimates for the proposed expenditure are based on several variables, a
significant variation in any one or a combination of which could have an adverse effect. Furthermore,
the deployment of funds has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution.
We operate in a highly competitive and dynamic industry and we may have to revise our funding
requirements and deployment from time to time on account of various factors beyond our control, such
as availability of material, inflation, employment levels, demographic trends, changing customer
preferences, increasing regulations or changes in government policies, our Board’s analysis of economic
trends and business requirements, competitive landscape, as well as general factors affecting our
business, results of operations, financial condition and access to capital such as credit availability and
interest rate levels.
Our Company, in accordance with the policies established by the Board from time to time, will have
flexibility to deploy the Net Proceeds. Furthermore, pending utilization of Net Proceeds towards the
Objects of the Offer, our Company will have the flexibility to deploy the Net Proceeds and to deposit the
Net Proceeds temporarily in deposits with one or more scheduled commercial banks included in Second
Schedule of Reserve Bank of India Act, 1939, as may be approved by our Board. Accordingly,
prospective investors in the Offer will need to rely upon our management’s judgment with respect to the
use of Net Proceeds and there can be no assurance that we will earn significant interest income on, or
that we will not suffer unanticipated diminution in the value of, such temporary deposits. Furthermore,
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 and including those set forth in this section, may limit or delay our efforts to use the Net Proceeds
to achieve profitable growth in our business.
63. We are dependent on our Promoters for functioning of our business and we believe that our senior
management team and other key managerial personnel are critical to our continued success and we
may be unable to attract and retain such personnel in the future.
Our performance depends largely on the efforts and abilities of our Promoters. For details, see “Our
Promoters and Promoter Group” on pages 295. We believe that the inputs and experience of our
Promoters/Directors are valuable for the growth and development of business and operations and the
strategic directions taken by our Company. Our business and operations are led by our Promoters/
Directors, who possess vast experience in the steel industry, the loss of whose services may adversely
affect our business operations.
At the same time, our future success also substantially depends on the continued service and performance
of the members of our senior management team and other key managerial personnel in our business for
the management and running of our daily operations and the planning and execution of our business
strategy. During the six-month period ended September 30, 2025 and past three Fiscals, we have not
faced any significant attrition of our KMPs and SMPs.
However, there is intense competition for experienced senior management and other key managerial
personnel with technical and industry expertise in the steel business and, if we lose the services of any
of our senior management and other key managerial personnel or other key individuals and are unable to
find suitable replacements in a timely manner, our ability to realize our strategic objectives could be
impaired. The loss of key members of our senior management or other key team members, particularly
82to competitors, could have an adverse effect on our business, cash flows, and results of operations.
64. Changes in technology may affect our business by making our manufacturing facility or equipment
less competitive or obsolete.
Our future success will depend in part on our ability to respond to technological advances and emerging
industry standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis. Modernization and technology
upgradation is essential to reduce costs and increase output. Our technology and machinery may become
obsolete or may not be upgraded in a timely manner, hampering our operations and financial conditions
and we may lose our competitive edge. The development and implementation of such technology and
machinery entails technical and business risks. Further, the costs of upgrading our technology and
modernizing the plant and machinery may be significant which could substantially affect our finances
and operations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully implement new technologies
or adapt our processing systems to customer requirements or emerging industry standards. Changes in
technology may make newer equipment more competitive than ours or may require us to make additional
capital expenditures to upgrade our facility. If we are unable, for technical, financial or other reasons, to
adapt in a timely manner to changing market conditions, customer requirements or technological
changes, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.
65. Key challenges in the global steel industry such as global slowdown, availability of raw materials and
price volatility, Trade barriers and environmental concerns and regulations that are beyond our
control may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
We are dependent on domestic, regional and global economic and market conditions prevailing in the
regions, from where our revenue from operations is generated. There have been periods of slowdown in
the global economic growth due to the turbulence in the financial sector, geopolitical tensions, supply
chain disruptions, tightening monetary policies, persistent inflation, and hikes in interest rates. The
decline in economic activity may lead to a reduction in demand for our products and may be adversely
affected by an economic downturn in domestic and regional economies. Consequently, any future
slowdown in the Indian economy could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Further, the availability of raw materials is critical in our industry. The raw materials we use are subject
to price volatility and unavailability. Further our raw material supply and pricing may become volatile
due to a number of factors beyond our control, including global demand and supply, general economic
and political conditions, transportation and labour costs, labour unrest, natural disasters, competition and
there are inherent uncertainties in estimating such variables, regardless of the methodologies and
assumptions that we may use. For instance, the prices were affected by the geopolitical tension between
Russia and Ukraine. Therefore, we cannot assure that we will be able to procure adequate supplies of
raw materials in the future, as and when we need them on commercially acceptable terms.
Moreover, any adverse change in policies, in terms of tariff and non-tariff barriers, import restrictions on
trade, and export bans by governments worldwide, may hamper the growth of the steel industry, causing
disruptions in trade globally and which may negatively impact our profitability.
We have to comply with rigid environmental regulations. We cannot assure you that in future our costs
of complying with current and future environmental laws and other regulations will not adversely affect
our business, results of operations or financial condition.
66. Our operations may be materially adversely affected by strikes, work stoppages or increased
compensation demands by our employees.
We are dependent on our workforce for carrying out our operations. Any Shortage of skilled/unskilled
personnel or work stoppages caused by disagreements with employees could have an adverse effect on
our business and results of operations. We have not experienced any disruptions in our business
operations due to disputes or other problems with our workforce during six-month period ended
September 30, 2025 and in the past three Fiscals; however, there can be no assurance that we will not
experience such disruptions in the future. Such disruptions may adversely affect our business and results
of operations and may also divert the management’s attention and result in increased costs.
83India has stringent labor legislation that protects the interests of workers, including legislation that sets
forth detailed procedures for the establishment of unions, dispute resolution and employee removal and
legislation that imposes certain financial obligations on employers upon retrenchment. We are also
subject to laws and regulations governing relationships with employees, in such areas as minimum wage
and maximum working hours, overtime, working conditions, hiring and terminating employees and work
permits. Although our employees are not currently unionized, there can be no assurance that they will
not unionize in the future. If our employees unionize, it may become difficult for us to maintain flexible
labor policies, and we may face the threat of labor unrest, work stoppages and diversion of our
management’s attention due to union intervention, which may have a material adverse impact on our
business, results of operations and financial condition.
67. Our Company’s Promoters and Directors and some of our Group Companies are at present involved
and may enter into ventures that may lead to real or potential conflicts of interest with our business
As on the date of this Prospectus, our Promoter Directors namely Shankarlal Deepchand Mehta, Babulal
D. Mehta and Jayesh Natvarlal Pithva and our Promoter Yashkumar Shankarlal Mehta and some of our
Promoter Group members, have interest in Ventana Speciality Private Limited, Rutvij Stainless Private
Limited, Surya Steel, Steel Wire India, Steel Trade, Steel World India, Bhansali Bright Bar Private
Limited, Steel Icon Stainless Private Limited, Kanungo Ferromet Private Limited and Steel Inox Private
Limited which are authorized to undertake similar business. For details, see “Promoter and Promoter
Group” on page 295. Although we have entered into non-compete agreements with Ventana Speciality
Private Limited and Bhansali Bright Bar Private Limited, there can be no assurance that in future,
conflicts of interests may arise in allocating business opportunities amongst our Company and our
Promoters, Directors in circumstances where our respective interests may be diverged.
We cannot assure that conflicts will not arise in the future, particularly if any said companies or ventures
chooses to engage in business activities that are similar to those carried out by our Company. In the event
that such a situation arises, our Company shall adopt appropriate procedures and measures, in accordance
with applicable laws and regulatory guidelines, which may include the execution of further non-compete
agreements or other conflict mitigation strategies, to effectively address and manage any such potential
conflicts of interest.
68. Any variation in the utilization of the Net Proceeds would be subject to certain compliance
requirements, including prior shareholders’ approval.
We intend to use Net Proceeds from the Offer towards (a) Funding capital expenditure requirements for
expansion of the existing manufacturing facility at Kalol, Panchmahal district, Gujarat through forward
integration and diversification of product portfolio i.e., Stainless Steel Seamless Pipes; and (b) Full or
part repayment and/or prepayment of certain outstanding borrowings availed by our Company; and (c)
general corporate purposes. For further details of the proposed objects of the Offer, see “Objects of the
Offer” on page 155. At this stage, we cannot determine with any certainty if we would require the Net
Proceeds to meet any other expenditure or fund any exigencies arising out of competitive environment,
business conditions, economic conditions or other factors beyond our control. In accordance with Section
13(8) and 27 of the Companies Act, 2013, we cannot undertake any variation in the utilization of the Net
Proceeds without obtaining the shareholders’ approval by way of a special resolution. In the event of any
such circumstances that require us to undertake variation in the disclosed utilization of the Net Proceeds,
we may not be able to obtain the shareholders’ approval in a timely manner, or at all. Any delay or
inability to obtain such shareholders’ approval may adversely affect our business or operations.
Further, our Promoters would be required to provide an exit opportunity to the Shareholders who do not
agree with our proposal to change the objects of the Offer or vary the terms of such contracts, at a price
and manner as prescribed by SEBI. Additionally, the requirement on Promoters or controlling
shareholders to provide an exit opportunity to such dissenting shareholders may deter the Promoters or
controlling shareholders 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
or the controlling shareholders of our Company will have adequate resources at their disposal at all times
to enable them to provide an exit opportunity at the price prescribed by SEBI.
84In light of these factors, we may not be able to undertake variation of objects of the Offer to use any
unutilized proceeds of the Offer, 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.
69. Our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will continue jointly to retain majority control
over our Company after the Offer, which will allow them to determine the outcome of matters
submitted to shareholders for approval.
After completion of the Offer, our Promoters and Promoter Group will collectively own a majority of
the Equity Shares of our Company. As a result, our Promoters together with the members of the Promoter
Group will be able to exercise a significant degree of influence over us and will be able to control the
outcome of any proposal that can be approved by a majority shareholder vote, including, the election of
members to our Board, in accordance with the Companies Act and our AoA. Such a concentration of
ownership may also have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of our
Company.
In addition, our Promoters will continue to have the ability to cause us to take actions that are not in, or
may conflict with, our interests or the interests of some or all of our creditors or minority shareholders,
and we cannot assure you that such actions will not have an adverse effect on our future financial
performance or the price of our Equity Shares.
70. Our future funds requirements, in the form of issue of capital or securities and/or loans taken by us,
may be prejudicial to the interest of the shareholders depending upon the terms on which they are
eventually raised.
We may require additional capital from time to time depending on our business needs. Any issue of
shares or convertible securities would dilute the shareholding of the existing shareholders and such
issuance may be done on terms and conditions, which may not be favourable to the then existing
shareholders. If such funds are raised in the form of loans or debt, then it may substantially increase our
interest burden and decrease our cash flows, thus prejudicially affecting our profitability and ability to
pay dividends to our shareholders.
71. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon our future earnings, financial condition,
cash flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditure and restrictive covenants in our
financing arrangements.
We may retain all our future earnings, if any, for use in the operations and expansion of our business. As
a result, we may not declare dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination as to the
declaration and payment of dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend
on factors that our Board of Directors deem relevant, including among others, our results of operations,
financial condition, cash requirements, business prospects and any other financing arrangements. For
details of our dividend history, see “Dividend Policy” on page 307.
72. Our Promoters, some of our Directors and some of our KMPs are interested in our Company, in
addition to regular remuneration or benefits and reimbursement of expenses.
Our Promoters, some of our Directors and some of our KMPs are interested in our Company to the extent
of their respective shareholding in our Company as well as to the extent of any dividends, bonuses, other
distributions on such Equity Shares, amount pending for repayment of unsecured loan amount, etc. For
details, see “Summary of Offer Document - Summary of Related Party Transaction” on page 31. We
cannot assure you that our Promoters, Directors and KMPs will exercise their rights as shareholders to
the benefit and best interest of our Company. Further, our Promoters, Directors and KMPs holding Equity
Shares may take or block actions with respect to our business which may conflict with the best interests
of our Company or that of minority shareholders. For further information on the interest of our Promoters,
85Directors and KMPs, other than reimbursement of expenses incurred or normal remuneration or benefits,
see “Our Management” and “Our Promoters and Promoter Group” on pages 280 and 295, respectively.
73. Information relating to the installed manufacturing capacity of our Manufacturing Facility included
in this Prospectus are based on various assumptions and estimates and future production and capacity
may vary.
Information relating to the installed capacity, actual production and capacity utilization of our
manufacturing facilities included in this Prospectus are based on various assumptions and estimates of
our management that have been taken into account by the chartered engineer, M/S JAS Associates, in
their report dated December 27, 2025, in the calculation of our installed capacity, actual production and
capacity utilization. Actual production levels and future capacity utilization rates may vary significantly
from the estimated production capacities of our manufacturing facilities and historical capacity utilization
rates. In addition, capacity utilization is calculated differently in different countries, industries and for
the different kinds of products we manufacture. Undue reliance should therefore not be placed on our
historical installed capacity, actual production and capacity utilization for our existing manufacturing
facilities included in this Prospectus. See Business – Capacity and capacity utilization on page 254.
74. We could be harmed by employee misconduct or errors that are difficult to detect and any such
incidence could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and reputation.
Employee misconduct or errors could expose us to business risks or losses, including regulatory
sanctions, and cause serious harm to our reputation and goodwill of our Company. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to detect or deter such misconduct. Moreover, the precautions we take to
prevent and detect such activity may not be effective in all cases. Our employees and agents may also
commit errors that could subject us to claims and proceedings for alleged negligence, as well as
regulatory actions on account of which our business, financial condition, results of operations and
goodwill could be adversely affected. Although, we have not faced any such incident during the six-
month period ended September 30, 2025 and past three Fiscals, we cannot assure that we would not face
such incident in future.
75. The average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares by our Promoters is lower than the issue price of the
Equity Shares offered through the present Offer.
The average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares of our Promoters is as follows:
Name of the Promoters Number of Equity Shares Average cost of acquisition (in ₹ per
held Equity Share)
Shankarlal Deepchand Mehta 3,77,46,748 0.91
Babulal D. Mehta 61,62,050 1.20
Jayesh Natvarlal Pithva 49,66,914 1.31
Yashkumar Shankarlal Mehta - -
Note: As certified by the Statutory Auditors M/s Ruparel & Bavadiya (FRN:126260W) through certificate dated March 16, 2026.
For further details regarding the average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares by our Promoters in our
Company and build-up of Equity Shares of our Promoters in our Company, see “Capital Structure” on
page 109.
76. Our Company has during the preceding one year from the date of this Prospectus have allotted Equity
Shares at a price which is lower than the Offer Price.
In the last 12 months, we have made allotment of Equity Shares through bonus issue to the Shareholders,
which are given without any consideration. We cannot assure you that any issuance of Equity Shares
made by our Company post completion of this Offer will be above the Offer Price or the prevailing
market price of our Equity Shares. For further details see “Capital Structure” on page 109.
8677. Any future issuance of Equity Shares, or convertible securities or other equity linked securities by our
Company may dilute your shareholding and any sale of Equity Shares by our Promoters or members
of our Promoter Group may adversely affect the trading price of Equity Shares.
Any future issuance of the Equity Shares, convertible securities or securities linked to the Equity Shares
by our Company may dilute your shareholding in our Company, adversely affect the trading price of the
Equity Shares and our ability to raise capital through an issue of our securities. In addition, any perception
by investors that such issuances or sales might occur could also affect the trading price of the Equity
Shares. We cannot assure you that we will not issue additional Equity Shares. Any sale of our Equity
Shares by our Promoters or major shareholders or future equity issuances by us may adversely affect the
trading price of our Equity Shares, which may lead to other adverse consequences including difficulty in
raising capital through offering of our Equity Shares or incurring additional debt. In addition, any
perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur may also affect the market price of our
Equity Shares. We cannot assure you that we will not issue Equity Shares, convertible securities or
securities linked to Equity Shares or that our Shareholders will not dispose of, pledge or encumber their
Equity Shares in the future.
78. Rights of shareholders under Indian laws may be more limited than under the laws of other
jurisdictions.
Indian legal principles related to corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities, and
shareholders’ rights may differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction.
Shareholders’ rights including in relation to class actions, under Indian law may not be as extensive as
shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions. Investors may have more difficulty
in asserting their rights as shareholder in an Indian company than as shareholder of a corporation in
another jurisdiction.
79. QIB 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.
Pursuant to the SEBI ICDR Regulations, 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. Retail Individual Investors can revise their Bids during the Bid/ Offer Period and
withdraw their Bids until Bid/ Offer Closing Date. While our Company is required to complete Allotment
pursuant to the Offer within 3 (three) Working Days from the Bid/Offer 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 may limit the Bidders’ ability to sell the Equity Shares Allotted pursuant to the Offer or cause the
trading price of the Equity Shares to decline on listing.
80. We have in this Prospectus included certain non-GAAP financial measures and certain other industry
measures related to our operations and financial performance. These 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 financial measures and certain other industry measures relating to our operations and
financial performance have been included in this Prospectus. We compute and disclose such non-GAAP
financial measures and such 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 by securities analysts, investors
and others to evaluate the operational performance of Indian retailing industry, many of which provide
such non-GAAP financial measures and other industry related statistical and operational information.
Such supplemental financial and operational information is therefore of limited utility as an analytical
tool, and investors are cautioned against considering such information either in isolation or as a substitute
for an analysis of our restated financial statements as reported under applicable accounting standards
87disclosed elsewhere in this Prospectus. These non-GAAP financial measures and such other industry
related statistical and other information relating to our operations and financial performance 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.
81. Subsequent to the listing of the Equity Shares, we may be subject to surveillance measures, such as
the Additional Surveillance Measures and the Graded Surveillance Measures by the Stock Exchanges
in order to enhance the integrity of the market and safeguard the interest of investors
Subsequent to the listing of the Equity Shares, we may be subject to Additional Surveillance Measures
(“ASM”) and Graded Surveillance Measures (“GSM”) by the Stock Exchanges and the Securities and
Exchange Board of India. These measures have been introduced to enhance the integrity of the market
and safeguard the interest of investors. The criteria for shortlisting any security trading on the Stock
Exchanges for ASM is based on objective criteria, which includes market-based parameters such as high
low-price variation, concentration of client accounts, close to close price variation, market capitalization,
average daily trading volume and its change, and average delivery percentage, among others. A scrip is
subject to GSM when the share price is not commensurate with the financial health and fundamentals of
the company. Specific parameters for GSM include net worth, net fixed assets, PE, market capitalization
and price to book value, among others. Factors within and beyond our control may lead to our securities
being subject to GSM or ASM. In the event our Equity Shares are subject to such surveillance measures
implemented by SEBI and the Stock Exchanges, we may be subject to certain additional restrictions in
connection with trading of our Equity Shares such as limiting trading frequency (for example, trading
either allowed once in a week or a month) or freezing of price on upper side of trading which may have
an adverse effect on the market price of our Equity Shares or may in general cause disruptions in the
development of an active trading market for our Equity Shares.
82. The Equity Shares have never been publicly traded, and, after the Offer, the Equity Shares may
experience price and volume fluctuations, and an active trading market for the Equity Shares may not
develop. Further, the price of the Equity Shares may be volatile, and you may be unable to resell the
Equity Shares at or above the Offer Price, or at all.
Prior to the Offer, 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 Offer. Listing and quotation do not
guarantee that a market for the Equity Shares will develop, or if developed, the liquidity of such market
for the Equity Shares. The Offer Price of the Equity Shares is proposed to be determined through a book-
building process in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations and may not be indicative of the market
price of the Equity Shares at the time of commencement of trading of the Equity Shares or at any time
thereafter. The market price of the Equity Shares may be subject to significant fluctuations in response
to, among other factors, variations in our operating results of our Company, market conditions specific
to the industry we operate in, developments relating to India, volatility in securities markets in
jurisdictions other than India, variations in the growth rate of financial indicators, variations in revenue
or earnings estimates by research publications, and changes in economic, legal and other regulatory
factors.
83. The Offer price of our Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity Shares
after the Offer and the market price of our Equity Shares may decline below the Offer Price and you
may not be able to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Offer Price.
The Offer Price of our Equity Shares will be determined by the book-building method. This price is based
on numerous factors and may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity Shares after the Offer.
For details, see “Basis for Offer Price” on page 174. The market price of our Equity Shares could be
subject to significant fluctuations after the Offer and may decline below the Offer Price. We cannot
assure you that you will be able to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Offer Price. Among the factors
that could affect our share price include without limitation, the following:
• Quarterly variations in the rate of growth of our financial indicators, such as earnings per share,
net income and revenues;
• Changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports by analysts;
88• Speculation in the press or investment community;
• General market conditions; and
• Domestic and international economic, legal and regulatory factors unrelated to our performance.
84. 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 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.
EXTERNAL RISK FACTORS
85. The surge in cheaper import is severely hurting the supply dynamics of domestic stainless-steel
industry.
According to D&B Report, increasing imports are cited as major threat to stainless steel product domestic
manufacturer. In Union-Budget 2021-22, the government announced revocation of CVD on imports of
certain hot rolled and cold rolled stainless steel flat products originating or exported from China (up till
30th September 2021) and subsequently extended it up to 31st Jan 2022. Moreover, the budget also
announced the revocation of the provisional CVD on import of flat products of stainless steel, originating
or exported from Indonesia. The detail review of the industry development over the last two three years
also suggests a large part of import from Indonesia are being driven by the Chinese companies operating
from Indonesia. China has been investing aggressively in Indonesia to scale up SS capacity and displace
India as a second largest SS player in world. Indonesia total installed capacity stood at 5.5Mn tonnes,
which was higher than India (5 Mn tonnes in 2021) and the country replaced India to become the second
largest SS producer globally in 2021.
In addition, Indonesia’s SS capacity is also 25 times more than their total annual domestic consumption
requirement of just 0.2 MTPA which serve India as a fertile dumping ground for Indonesian SS flat
product exports as Indonesia is a part of India's free trade agreement (FTA) with the Association of
Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
This surge in cheaper import is severely hurting the supply dynamics of domestic SS industry with
underutilized domestic capacity which is dwindling somewhere near 60%. Majority of underutilized
capacity is concentrated in MSME segment which contributes about 28% share (1.4 Mn Tonnes) in total
SS capacity of India. Under-utilization of domestic capacity are adding its resulting woes to the domestic
SS industry such as falling revenue, declining profitability, significant unemployment, bringing fresh
investment at halt, turning many companies out of business, and converting many manufacturers into
trader. As per recent insight from the President of Indian Stainless Steel Development Association
(ISSDA), about 30-35% of medium and small businesses in the stainless-steel industry in Gujarat state
which represents 80% of the MSMEs in the sector ceased their operation in Q2 FY 2024 due to heavy
influx of cheaper Chinese imports.
Any unfavorable changes in the demand of domestically produced stainless steel, due to cheaper import,
government policies affecting adversely the domestic manufacturers, as whole may adversely affect the
steel industry and our business and results of operations.
8986. Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as US GAAP and
International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), which investors may be more familiar with
and consider material to their assessment of our financial condition.
Our Restated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting
Standards notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with the Ind AS Rules and
restated in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations and the Guidance Note on “Reports in
Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019)” issued by the ICAI.
We have not attempted to quantify the impact of US GAAP, IFRS or any other system of accounting
principles on the financial data included in this Prospectus, nor do we provide a reconciliation of our
financial statements to those of US GAAP, IFRS or any other accounting principles. US GAAP and IFRS
differ in significant respects from Ind AS. Accordingly, the degree to which the Restated Financial
Statements included in this Prospectus will provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the
reader’s level of familiarity with Ind AS and the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not
familiar with Indian accounting practices on the financial disclosures presented in this Prospectus should
accordingly be limited.
87. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application of tax
laws, may adversely affect our business, prospects and results of operations.
The regulatory and policy environment in India is evolving and subject to change. Such changes in
applicable law and policy in India, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of
operations, performance and prospects in India, to the extent that we are not able to suitably respond to
and comply with such changes.
The regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving and subject to change. Such
changes 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. In addition,
unfavourable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new laws, rules and
regulations including foreign investment laws governing our business, operations and group structure
could result in us being deemed to be in contravention of such laws or may require us to apply for
additional approvals. We may incur increased costs relating to compliance with such new requirements,
which may also require management time and other resources, and any failure to comply may adversely
affect our business, results of operations and prospects. Uncertainty in the applicability, interpretation or
implementation of any amendment to, or change in, governing law, regulation or policy, including 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.
88. Holders of Equity Shares may be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian
law and thereby suffer future dilution of their ownership position.
Under the Companies Act, 2013, a company having share capital and incorporated in India must offer its
equity shareholders pre-emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of Equity Shares
to maintain their existing ownership percentages prior to issuance of any new equity shares, unless the
pre-emptive rights have been waived by the adoption of a special resolution by holders of three-fourths
of our Equity Shares voting on such resolution.
However, if the law of the jurisdiction that you are in does not permit the exercise of such pre-emptive
rights without our filing an offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority in
such jurisdiction, you will be unable to exercise such pre-emptive rights, unless we make such a filing.
The value such custodian receives on the sale of any such securities and the related transaction costs
cannot be predicted. To the extent that you are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights granted in respect
of our Equity Shares, your proportional interests in our Company would be diluted
9089. Investors may not be able to enforce judgments obtained in foreign courts against us.
We are a public limited company under the laws of India. All of our directors and officers are Indian
nationals and all or a significant portion of the assets of all of the directors and officers and a substantial
portion of our assets are located in India. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of
process outside India on us or on such directors or officers or to enforce judgments against them obtained
from courts outside India, including judgments predicated on the civil liability provisions of the United
States federal securities laws.
India has reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters with only
a limited number of jurisdictions, which includes the United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Singapore
and Hong Kong. In order to be enforceable, a judgment from a jurisdiction with reciprocity must meet
certain requirements of the Indian Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (the “Civil Code”). The Civil Code
only permits the enforcement of monetary decrees, 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 enforceable in India. Even if an investor obtained a judgment in such a jurisdiction
against us, our officers or directors, it may be required to institute a new proceeding in India and obtain
a decree from an Indian court. However, the party in whose favour such final judgment is rendered may
bring a fresh suit in a competent court in India based on a final judgment that has been obtained in a non-
reciprocating territory within three years of obtaining such final judgment. It is unlikely that an Indian
court would award damages on the same basis or to the same extent as was awarded in a final judgment
rendered by a court in another jurisdiction if the Indian court believed that the amount of damages
awarded was excessive or inconsistent with public policy in India. In addition, any person seeking to
enforce a foreign judgment in India is required to obtain prior approval of the Reserve Bank of India to
repatriate any amount recovered pursuant to the execution of the judgment.
90. We are a public limited company under the laws of India. As a result, it may be difficult for investors
to effect service of process outside India on us or on such directors or officers or to enforce judgments
against them obtained from courts outside India, including judgments predicated on the civil liability
provisions of the United States federal securities laws. Political instability or a change in economic
liberalization and deregulation policies could seriously harm business and economic conditions in
India generally and our business in particular.
The Government of India has traditionally exercised and continues to exercise influence over many
aspects of the economy. Our business and the market price and liquidity of our Equity Shares may be
affected by interest rates, changes in Government policy, taxation, social and civil unrest and other
political, economic or other developments in or affecting India. The rate of economic liberalization could
change, and specific laws and policies affecting the infrastructure sector, foreign investment and other
matters affecting investment in our securities could change as well. Any significant change in such
liberalization and deregulation policies could adversely affect business and economic conditions in India,
and our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations, in particular.
91. We are subject to regulatory, economic and social and political uncertainties and other factors beyond
our control.
We are incorporated in India and we conduct our corporate affairs and our business in India. Our Equity
Shares are proposed to be listed on the BSE and the NSE, subject to the receipt of the final listing and
trading approvals from the Stock Exchanges. Consequently, our business, operations, financial
performance and the market price of our Equity Shares will be affected by interest rates, government
policies, taxation, social and ethnic instability and other political and economic developments affecting
India.
Factors that may adversely affect the Indian economy, and hence our results of operations may include:
• any exchange rate fluctuations, the imposition of currency controls and restrictions on the right
to convert or repatriate currency or export assets;
91• any scarcity of credit or other financing in India, resulting in an adverse effect on economic
conditions in India and scarcity of financing for our expansions;
• prevailing income conditions among Indian customers and Indian corporations;
• political instability, terrorism, military conflict, epidemic or public health issues in India or in
countries in the region or globally, including in India’s various neighbouring countries;
• macroeconomic factors and central bank regulation, including in relation to interest rates
movements which may in turn adversely impact our access to capital and increase our borrowing
costs;
• Instability in financial markets and volatility in, and actual or perceived trends in trading activity
on, India’s principal stock exchanges;
• decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves which may affect liquidity in the Indian economy;
• downgrading of India’s sovereign debt rating by rating agencies;
• difficulty in developing any necessary partnerships with local businesses on commercially
acceptable terms and/or a timely basis.
• changes in India’s tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies; and
• other significant regulatory or economic developments in or affecting India or its logistics
sector.
Moreover, a fall in the purchasing power of our customers, for any reason whatsoever, including rising
consumer inflation, availability of financing to our customers, changing governmental policies and a
slowdown in economic growth may have an adverse effect on our customers’ revenues, savings and could
in turn negatively affect their demand for our products. In addition, any slowdown or perceived slowdown
in the Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian economy, could adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition and the price of the Equity Shares.
92. Inflation in India could have an adverse effect on our profitability and if significant, on our financial
condition.
Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years, and such volatility may continue. India has
experienced high inflation relative to developed countries in the recent past. Continued high rates of
inflation may increase our expenses related to costs of raw material, rent, salaries or wages payable to
our employees or any other expenses. There can be no assurance that we will be able to pass on any
additional expenses to our customers or that our revenue will increase proportionately corresponding to
such inflation. Accordingly, high rates of inflation in India could have an adverse effect on our
profitability and, if significant, on our financial condition.
93. Foreign investors are subject to foreign investment restrictions under Indian law that limits our ability
to attract foreign investors, which may adversely impact the market price of the Equity Shares.
Under the foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfers of shares between non-
residents and residents are freely permitted (subject to certain exceptions) if they comply with the pricing
guidelines and reporting requirements specified by the RBI. If the transfer of shares, which are sought to
be transferred, is not in compliance with such pricing guidelines or reporting requirements or falls under
any of the exceptions referred to above, then the prior approval of the RBI will be required. Additionally,
shareholders who seek to convert the Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India into foreign currency
and repatriate that foreign currency from India will require a no objection/ tax clearance certificate from
the income tax authority. There can be no assurance that any approval required from the RBI or any other
government agency can be obtained on any particular terms or at all.
94. Any downgrading of India’s debt rating by an independent agency may harm our ability to raise
financing.
Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings for international debt by international rating agencies may
adversely affect our ability to raise additional overseas financing and the interest rates and other
commercial terms at which such additional financing is available. This could have an adverse effect on
our ability to fund our growth on favourable terms or at all, and consequently adversely affect our
business and financial performance and the price of our Equity Shares.
9295. The occurrence of natural or man-made disasters may adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The occurrence of natural disasters, including hurricanes, floods, tsunamis, earthquakes, tornadoes, fires,
explosions, pandemic disease and man-made disasters, including acts of terrorism and military actions,
may adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. In addition, any deterioration in
relations between India and its neighbouring countries might result in investor concern about stability in
the region, which may adversely affect the price of our Equity Shares. The potential impact of a natural
disaster on our results of operations and financial position is speculative and would depend on numerous
factors. In addition, an outbreak of a communicable disease in India or in the particular region in which
we have projects would adversely affect our business and financial conditions and the results of
operations. We cannot assure prospective investors that such events will not occur in the future or that
our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will not be adversely affected.
96. Our ability to raise foreign capital may be constrained by Indian law.
As an Indian company, we are subject to exchange controls that regulate borrowing in foreign currencies.
Such regulatory restrictions limit our financing sources and could constrain our ability to obtain
financings on competitive terms and refinance existing indebtedness. In addition, we cannot assure you
that any required regulatory approvals for borrowing in foreign currencies will be granted to us without
onerous conditions, or at all. Limitations on foreign debt may have an adverse effect on our business
growth, financial condition and results of operations.
97. Rights of shareholders under Indian laws may be different from laws of other jurisdictions.
Indian legal principles related to corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities, and
shareholders’ rights may differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction.
Shareholders’ rights including in relation to class actions under the 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 our shareholder than as a shareholder of an entity in another jurisdiction.

The Company undertook secondary transfers of Equity Shares on September 30, 2009, September 25, 2012, and
March 31, 2014. These bilateral transactions involved transfers at prices significantly lower than the earlier
purchase price or indicative valuation of the Company as mutually agreed upon. These transfers were primarily
undertaken in advance of the Previous DRHP filing dated June 26, 2010, to facilitate exit for certain shareholders
unwilling to hold shares subject to lock-in under the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements)
134Regulations, 2009. The shares were predominantly acquired by the Promoters and members of the Promoter
Group. All such transactions were private secondary transfers, carried out in compliance with the Companies Act,
1956, and without any coercion or pre-arranged arrangement. There are no disputes or regulatory challenges
pending in relation to these transactions.
Further, transfers by way of gifts dated November 18, 2024, and May 21, 2025, were executed without
consideration as part of an internal shareholding restructuring exercise within the Promoter and Promoter Group.
The objective of these transfers was to consolidate equity ownership among Promoters actively involved in the
management of the Company. These transactions involved no public entities or parties and are not categorized as
pre-IPO restructuring.

The fund requirements, the deployment of funds and the intended use of the Net Proceeds as described herein are
based on our current business plan, management estimates, current and valid quotations from vendors and
contractors, and other commercial and technical factors. However, our Company has also obtained the TEV
Report from Dun & Bradstreet Information Services India Private Limited (“D&B India”) dated February 13,
2026, for our capital expenditure requirements in relation to the setting up of the Proposed Facility and the BRLM
has relied upon such TEV Report for ascertaining the fund requirements and deployment of funds in respect of
the Proposed Facility forming part of the Objects of the Fresh Issue. Such fund requirements and deployment of
funds have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. We may have to revise our funding
requirements and deployment on account of a variety of factors such as our financial and market condition,
business and strategy, competition, negotiation with vendors, variation in cost estimates on account of factors,
including changes in design or configuration of the Proposed Facility, incremental pre-operative expenses and
other external factors such as changes in the business environment and interest or exchange rate fluctuations,
which may not be within the control of our management. Consequently, the fund requirements of our Company
are subject to revisions in the future at the discretion of the management. In the event of any shortfall of funds for
the activities proposed to be financed out of the Net Proceeds as stated above, our Company may re-allocate the
Net Proceeds to the activities where such shortfall has arisen, subject to compliance with applicable laws. Further,
in case of a shortfall in the Net Proceeds or cost overruns, our management may explore a range of options
including utilising our internal accruals or seeking debt financing. This may entail rescheduling or revising the
planned expenditure and funding requirements, including the expenditure for a particular purpose at the discretion
of our management, subject to compliance with applicable laws. Our historical capital expenditure may not be
reflective of our future capital expenditure plans.
In the event of the estimated utilisation of the Net Proceeds in a scheduled Fiscals being not undertaken in its
entirety, the remaining Net Proceeds shall be utilized in next Fiscal, as may be decided by our Company, in
accordance with applicable laws. Further, if the Net Proceeds are not completely utilized for the objects during
the respective periods stated above due to factors such as (i) economic and business conditions; (ii) increased
competition; (iii) timely completion of the Offer; (iv) market conditions outside the control of our Company; and
156(v) any other commercial considerations, the remaining Net Proceeds shall be utilized (in part or full) in next
Fiscal, in accordance with applicable laws. Our Company may also utilise any portion of the Net Proceeds, towards
the aforementioned Objects of the Offer, ahead of the estimated schedule of deployment specified above.
Means of Finance
The fund requirements for all the Objects set out above are proposed to be entirely funded from the Net Proceeds.
Accordingly, we confirm that there is no requirement for us to make firm arrangements of finance under
Regulation 7(1) (e) the SEBI ICDR Regulations through verifiable means towards at least 75% of the stated means
of finance, excluding the amount to be raised through the Fresh Issue or through existing identifiable internal
accruals. In case of a shortfall in the Net Proceeds or any increase in the actual utilization of funds earmarked for
the Objects, our Company may explore a range of options including utilizing our internal accruals.
Details of the Objects
1. Funding capital expenditure requirements for expansion of the existing manufacturing facility at
Panchmahal district, Gujarat through forward integration and diversification of product portfolio
i.e., Stainless Steel Seamless Pipes
As on date of this Prospectus, we are engaged in the business of manufacturing of long and flat stainless-
steel products comprising of billets, forging ingots, rolled black bar, rolled bright bar, flat & patti and
other ancillary products. We primarily operate through our existing Manufacturing Facility located at
Halol Kalol Road, Kalol, Panchmahal Gujarat. The existing manufacturing facility is situated on a land
admeasuring the total area of 35,196.98 sq. m approximately. In our existing Manufacturing Facility, we
have an open industrial purpose land admeasuring 17,610 sq m. This land is currently vacant and is
occasionally utilized by the Company for the temporary storage of one of its raw materials, namely scrap,
at the time of receipt, on a need basis. As part of our growth strategy, we propose to expand our
manufacturing operations through forward integration and diversification of our product portfolio. To
this end, we intend to utilize a portion of the aforementioned vacant industrial land within the premises
of our existing Manufacturing Facility for the establishment of a stainless-steel seamless pipes
manufacturing unit, with a proposed installed capacity of 9,600 MTPA.
The primary raw material required for the manufacture of stainless-steel seamless pipes is rolled bar,
which is currently produced in-house at our existing Manufacturing Facility. This forward integration
initiative is expected to enable the Company to utilize its internally manufactured raw materials for the
production of stainless-steel seamless pipes. As a result, we anticipate improved operational efficiency,
reduction in production costs, better control over the supply and quality of raw materials, and enhanced
product consistency. Collectively, these factors are expected to provide us with a competitive edge over
our competitors and put us in advantageous position in the market. For further details see, “Our Business
- Our Strategies” on page 244 .
Further, the proposed seamless pipe manufacturing facility will provide the Company with operational
flexibility to either: (i) sell the intermediate product, i.e., mother pipes, to other pipe manufacturing
companies engaged in the pilgering process; or (ii) sell the finished product, i.e., seamless pipes, which
are used across a wide range of industries. The total estimated cost for setting up the proposed facility is
₹1,857.17 lakhs, which will be fully funded from the Net Proceeds allocated towards capital expenditure
for this purpose.
The proposed seamless pipe manufacturing facility will expand the Company's market reach by
broadening its product portfolio, thereby attracting a wider customer base. This diversification is also
expected to mitigate offtake risk by reducing reliance on a limited set of products or customers. Also, see
“Risk Factor – We may face several risks associated with the construction of the building of the
Proposed Facility, which could hamper our growth, prospects, cash flows and business and financial

(Source: TEV Report)
f) Contingencies
We have provided for a 3.5% on the total hard cost to account for various potential risks and cost
uncertainties that are typical of projects at this stage. While quotations for the total hard cost are available,
fluctuations in material costs, labour rates, and currency exchange rates (as the project involves
procurement of imported machinery from China) may impact the final expenditure over the 12-month
implementation period.
Additionally, minor design refinements or site-specific challenges may necessitate cost adjustments that
were not accounted for in the initial estimates. Unforeseen statutory changes or additional compliance
requirements may lead to incremental costs. Moreover, potential delays, logistical challenges, or
contractor-related issues could lead to additional expenditures beyond the contracted amounts.
Therefore, our Company, in consultation with D&B India, has considered contingencies of 3.50% on the
total hard costs amounting to ₹57.36 Lakhs to cover the cost of unforeseen items.
Also, we may be required to incur additional costs which can be determined only at the time of placing
orders or receipt of plant & machinery or any other cost which may be incurred and required to complete
installation of proposed facility to make it operative and which is not included hereinabove. Such
additional costs shall be funded from the Net Proceeds proposed or through internal accruals, if required.
We undertake that the amount earmarked for contingencies, if not utilized, will then be utilized towards
General Corporate Purposes, subject to a limit of 25% of Gross Proceeds.
162It is pertinent to note that no firm orders have been placed for any of the proposed items. Further, no
second hand machinery or used machinery is intended to be procured from the Net Proceeds. The
quotations received are indicative in nature and valid only for a specified period. Accordingly, there is
no assurance that orders will be placed with the same vendors or at the quoted price. Any revised
quotation may not necessarily be at a favorable cost to the Company and could be subject to escalation
due to factors such as or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control increase in labor charges,
transportation cost, change in applicable tax rates or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control.
The vendors have been selected as per the quotation received from them for the respective work/ supply
of materials/equipment as identified in the object as per their background, expertise, vintage, credibility
as assessed by D&B India vide their TEV report.
We confirm that the vendors are not related to the promoter/ promoter group and quotations received are
purely on the basis of economics and merits of the order. All the quotations thus received are at arm’s
length.
The transportation cost for the respective equipment shall be in accordance with the quotation received.
The transportation cost for equipment falls under the scope of the Company, the associated expenses
shall be met through the Company’s internal accruals. Similarly, any costs related to installation, testing,
commissioning or any additional work pertaining to the equipment, which are within the scope of the
Company, shall also be borne by the Company from its internal accruals. Furthermore, any GST liability
arising from this proposed capital expenditure under categories such as civil & structural work, plant &
machinery, miscellaneous fixed assets, pre-operative expenses and excess contingency shall be borne by
the company from its internal accruals and not from part of the Net Proceeds.
Infrastructure facilities and utilities
Power
Bulk power is received at 66 kV from the nearest Sub Station of Madhya Gujarat Vij Company Limited.
Total contract demand for the plant is about 6000 KVAH. The power consumption is considered as 2,563
kWh/MT at the purchase rate of INR 5.50 kWh. Based on the Power bill received from Company
availability of Contract demand of 6000 KVAH and the consumption of existing facility to the tune of
4000-4200 KVAH, the balance contract demand remains available around 1800-2000 KVAH which will
be sufficient for the first year of operations of proposed project with 50% capacity utilization. However,
going forward the Company would require to take additional 1000 KVAH from 80% to 95% capacity
utilization of proposed project.
Water
Water is mainly required for the production process, fire safety, drinking, and sanitation purposes. Our
Company consumes water from our own bore-well for our existing Manufacturing Facility and we intend
to use the same source to fulfil the water requirements of our proposed facility.
Presently, the Company has an overhead water tank which holds up to 60,000 liters of water at a time
along with an underground water tank which holds up to 1,00,000 liters.
Manpower
At peak capacity utilization levels, the total manpower requirement would be about 72 skilled and
unskilled personnel for the Proposed Facility.

2. Full or part repayment and/or prepayment of certain outstanding borrowings availed by our
Company.
Our Company has entered various financial arrangements from time to time, with banks and financial
institutions. The loan facilities availed by our Company include borrowings in the form of, inter alia,
term loans and working capital facilities including fund based and non-fund-based borrowings. For
details, see section entitled “Financial Statements” on page 308.
As on December 3, 2025, the total amount outstanding under our loan facilities (comprising of term
loans, working capital limits and unsecured loans) was ₹14,136.09 lakhs. We propose to utilise an
estimated amount of ₹9,800.00 lakhs from the Net Proceeds towards full or partial re-payment or pre-
payment of some of borrowings, availed by our Company. The repayment/ prepayment, will help reduce
our outstanding indebtedness, assist us in maintaining a favourable debt-equity ratio and enable
utilisation of some additional amount from our internal accruals for further investment in business growth
and expansion. In addition, we believe that the anticipated improvement in our debt-equity ratio will
enhance our financial standing, thereby enabling us to raise additional resources at more competitive
rates. This strengthened position will support our ability to secure future funding to pursue potential
165business development opportunities and strategic initiatives aimed at scaling our operations.
Given the nature of these borrowings and the terms of repayment/prepayment, the aggregate outstanding
borrowing amounts may vary from time to time. Further, the amounts outstanding under these
borrowings as well as the sanctioned limits are dependent on several factors and may vary with our
business cycle with repayments, drawdowns and enhancement of sanctioned limits. However, the
aggregate amount to be utilized from the Net Proceeds towards repayment/ prepayment of certain
borrowings, in part or in full, would not exceed ₹9,800.00 lakhs.
The following table provides details of certain borrowings availed by our Company, which are
outstanding as on December 3, 2025, which are currently proposed to be re-paid or pre-paid, in full or in
part, to the extent of ₹9,800.00 lakhs from the Net Proceeds:

Some of the qualitative factors and our strengths which form the basis for the Offer Price are:
• Established, integrated manufacturing setup at strategic location
We primarily operate through our Manufacturing Facility which is spread across 35,196.98 sq.m
(including unutilised area of the land approximately 17,610 Sq. m) of land at Halol Kalol Road, Kalol,
Panchmahal, Gujarat. Our facility features an integrated manufacturing setup that covers the entire
production chain ranging from melting and refining to casting/ rolling, treatment, testing and storage.
Our Manufacturing Facility is also equipped with key infrastructure including an induction furnace,
AOD, CCM, heat treatment facilities, rolling mill and bright bar shop. In addition to the same, our
Manufacturing Facility is also equipped with an Oxygen Plant and a Nitrogen Plant which reduces our
dependence on third party supplier. We use a combination of mechanized and human skills to achieve
the desired standards of manufacturing.
Further, our integrated production process allows us to be flexible with our production and be able to
alter our products as per the customer’s specific requirements as well as change our product mix to cater
to the continuously evolving market conditions. We have the ability to convert the stainless-steel billets
into long and flat products, and thereafter into black or bright category or sell the billets independently
in the market.
• Diverse Product Portfolio
Our product portfolio comprises billets, forging ingots, rolled black bar, rolled bright bar, flat patti, wire
rods and other ancillary products. We offer our products in more than eighty (80) diverse grades of
stainless steel. Our diverse product portfolio that includes a broad range of sizes and grades, not only
makes it possible for us to satisfy the ever-evolving expectations of our clients and comply with the latest
demand in the market, but it also provides our Company with an advantage that allows us to compete
more effectively in the industry.
• Established customer base and relationships
With over two decades of operating experience, we have established cordial relationships with a wide
base of customers. A key factor that differentiates us from our competitors is our customer-centric
approach, offering stainless-steel products tailored to specific customer requirements. This approach has
supported our business growth while helping us expand our presence in the industry we operate in. Our
business is primarily focused on the domestic market, with exports contributing a smaller share of total
revenue. During the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and Fiscal 2025 our revenue from
export of our Company’s products amounted to ₹27.60 lakhs, and ₹1,527.65 lakhs representing 0.06%
and 1.64% of our Company’s revenue from operations, respectively.
• Promoters and Experienced Management Team
We are driven by a qualified and dedicated management team, which is led by our Board of Directors.
Our Promoters Shankarlal Deepchand Mehta and Babulal D Mehta have been associated with the
Company since the year 1999 and Jayesh Natvarlal Pithva and Yashkumar Shankarlal Mehta since the
174year 2007 & 2015 respectively. Collectively, they bring more than 5 decades of business experience in
the steel industry and have played a significant role in the development of our business. Our Promoters
play a pivotal role in formulating business strategies, driving innovation, integrating systems, processes
and technologies, diversification and expansion of business, and commitment to customer-focused
approach.
• Track Record of healthy growth
We have demonstrated consistent growth in terms of revenues and profitability. We have been able to
increase our revenue from operations from the year 2006 onwards. We, from being a Non-BIFR Sick
Industrial Unit in the year 2006, have grown into a profit-making stainless-steel products manufacturing
company. Onwards the year 2006, we have demonstrated consistent growth in terms of revenues and
profitability. Our revenue from operations has grown from ₹3604.07 Lakhs in Fiscal 2006 to ₹93,215.58
lakhs in Fiscal 2025 registering a CAGR of 18.67% in the last 19 years.

India Macroeconomic Analysis
The International Monetary Fund (IMF), in its latest World Economic Outlook, has projected India’s economy to
grow at 6.6% in CY 2025, marking a 20-basis point upward revision from its previous estimate. This boost is
largely credited to a strong first quarter performance in FY26, which helped offset the negative impact of increased
U.S. tariffs on Indian exports. With this projection, India is set to remain one of the fastest growing emerging
market and developing economies, outpacing China’s expected growth of 4.8%. Despite global trade policy shifts
and economic uncertainties, India’s growth continues to be driven by resilient domestic demand and strong
economic fundamentals. However, the IMF slightly lowered its forecast for CY 2026 to 6.2%, anticipating a
natural moderation as the early momentum fades

Growth Outlook
The Union Budget 2025-26 has laid the foundation for sustained growth by balancing demand stimulation,
investment promotion and inclusive development. Inflation level is reaching within the central bank's target; the
RBI may pursue further monetary easing that will support growth. The medium-term outlook is bright, fueled by
the emphasis on physical and digital infrastructure spending. With a focus on stimulating demand, driving
investment and ensuring inclusive development, the budget introduces measures such as tax relief, increased
infrastructure spending and incentives for manufacturing and clean energy. These initiatives aim to accelerate
growth while maintaining fiscal discipline, reinforcing India’s long-term economic resilience. The expansion of
tax relief i.e zero tax liability for individuals earning up to INR 12 lacs annually under the new tax regime is
expected to strengthen household finances and, consequently, boost consumption.
The external sector remains resilient, and key external vulnerability indicators continue to improve. However,
tariff-related uncertainty is likely to weigh on exports and investment, prompting us to cut our CY26 GDP growth
forecast to 6.2%.
Product Overview Steel & Stainless Steel
Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, containing less than 2% carbon, 1% manganese, and small amounts of silicon,
phosphorus, Sulphur, and oxygen. Steel is the most important engineering and construction material in the world
on account of its functionality and adaptability. Steel is manufactured through to the following two processes:
• Conventional method: Blast furnace (BF) and basic oxygen furnace (BOF)
(Input: Iron ore + coke+ limestone) ==> Blast furnace ==> Basic oxygen furnace ==> (Crude steel)
====> continuous caster
• New Method: Electric Arc Furnace (EAF)
Iron ore pellets ===> DRI/Sponge /Scrap/Pig Iron ===> EAF===> (Crude steel) ===> continuous caster

BF and BOF method on an average involves the use of 1,400 kg iron ore (use to produce “pig iron” which is one
of the major raw materials to produce steel), 770 kg of coal, 150 kg of limestone, and 120 kg of recycled steel to
produce a tonnes of crude steel while EAF route uses 880 kg of recycled steel or DRI, 150 kg of coal and 43 kg
of limestone to produce a tonnes of crude steel.
Classification of Steel Products
Semi-finished steel products: These are intermediary products manufactured by continuous casting of liquid
steel, which is further subjected to further processing to manufacture finished steel products.
Finished steel products: Include two broad category of products – long and flat steel products. Long steel
products are made from blooms and ingots while flat rolled steel products are made from slabs.

199Steel is mainly of two types – alloy and non-alloy (carbon steel). Alloy steel is divided into low alloy steel and
high alloy steel where stainless steel is a type of high alloy steel. Alloy steel includes stainless steel and other steel
types such as tool steel and heat resistant steel.
Stainless Steel
Stainless Steel is a value-added product with high corrosion resistant properties. For steel to have properties
generally referred to as “stainless”, it must have over 10.5% Chromium content. Other notable elements that are
included in stainless-steel include nickel, molybdenum, and titanium. Higher levels of Chromium and additions
of other alloy elements (Nickel, Molybdenum, etc.) enhance the corrosion resistance. Compared to traditional
steel, stainless-steel has higher resistance to corrosion, superior aesthetic finish and higher life span. These features
have helped in increasing the popularity of stainless-steel across the world. High recyclability, resistance to
corrosion and low maintenance properties has made stainless steel a preferred metal for application in diverse
sectors railway, metro project, process industries, bridges, nuclear, airport, transportation, kitchenware etc.
The different types of stainless steel are as follows:

1. Raw Material & Preparation: The process begins with the collection and preparation of raw materials,
which primarily include stainless steel scrap, iron, nickel, and chromium. These elements are essential
for achieving the desired chemical composition of stainless steel.
2. Melting in Furnace: The prepared raw materials are melted in either an Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) or
an Induction Furnace. This step is critical to converting solid metallic inputs into a molten state, allowing
for further refinement and alloying.
3. Argon Oxygen Decarburization (AOD) Treatment: The molten steel undergoes treatment in an AOD
converter, where argon and oxygen gases are injected to reduce carbon content and remove unwanted
200impurities. This process ensures enhanced purity and corrosion resistance of stainless steel.
4. Continuous Casting: The refined molten steel is then poured into a continuous casting machine. This
equipment shapes the molten steel into solid forms in a continuous process, improving efficiency and
consistency.
5. Stainless Semi-finished Products: The final output of the process includes semi-finished stainless-steel
products such as blooms, billets, and slabs. These intermediate forms are used as inputs for further
processing into finished goods like tubes, sheets, and bars.

Seamless Pipes
Steel pipes are of two types namely - welded pipes or seamless pipes. For manufacturing of both types of pipes,
raw material is first cast into ingots and then made into a pipe by stretching the steel out into a seamless tube or
forcing the edges together and sealing them with a weld.
Seamless pipes are without a seam or a weld-joint and made from a solid round steel billet which is heated and
pushed or pulled over a form until the steel is shaped into a hollow pipe. The common methods of manufacturing
include the Mandrel Mill process and the Mannesmann Plug Mill Process. In both the methods, raw steel is first
cast into a more workable starting form such as hot billet or flat strip. It is then made into a pipe by stretching the
hot steel billet out into a seamless pipe or forcing the edges of flat steel strip together.
Seamless pipes are manufactured through a process where a solid cylindrical billet is heated and pierced to create
a hollow tube. Seamless piping fabrication involves cutting and fitting these seamless pipes into the required
configuration, often using fittings for specific bends or connections.
The demand for seamless pipes and tubes in India remains robust due to their vital role in industries like oil and
gas, petrochemicals, infrastructure, and automotive. Economic growth, urbanization, and government
infrastructure initiatives further fuel this demand, along with rising investments in renewable energy and other
growth sectors, solidifying their essential position in India's industrial landscape.
Globally, 10%1 of the steel produced is estimated to be converted to tubes. Higher demand for oil & gas and
chemical & petrochemical industry – two of the largest consumers of steel pipes and tubes – is driving the demand
across the world.
Global Steel Production Trends
From CY2020 to CY2024, the global crude steel industry witnessed a period of volatility and subdued growth,
with production figures fluctuating between 1,883 million tonnes and 1,962 million tonnes. The compound annual
growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year span was approximately 0.1%, reflecting the industry's sluggish expansion
amid numerous global challenges. The COVID-19 pandemic in CY2020 triggered a sharp decline in output to
1,883 million tonnes as global lockdowns and economic slowdowns disrupted industrial activity. This was
followed by a strong rebound in CY2021, when production peaked at 1,962 million tonnes, registering a year-on-
year growth of 4.2%. However, the recovery momentum was short-lived, with output declining to 1,889 million
tonnes in CY2022 and fluctuating slightly thereafter, settling at 1,884 million tonnes in CY2024.
China continued to dominate the global steel landscape, although its crude steel output declined from 1,064 million
tonnes in CY2020 to 1,005 million tonnes in CY2024. Despite this decrease, China’s share in global crude steel
production remained significant, averaging around 53.3% in CY2024, down from 56.5% in CY2020, due to its
robust industrial ecosystem, competitive cost structure, and sustained investments in infrastructure. However, its
leadership is increasingly influenced by domestic policy shifts, including stricter environmental regulations and
carbon reduction targets. India, meanwhile, solidified its position as the world’s second-largest crude steel
producer, with production rising steadily from 100 million tonnes in CY2020 to 149 million tonnes in CY2024.
Correspondingly, India's share of global production grew from 5.3% to 7.9% during this period. This upward

However, starting in FY 2017-18, the index began to climb again, reaching 112.7 in FY 2018-19, driven by
increasing demand from sectors such as construction and automotive, as well as the growing impact of global raw
material price trends. From FY 2019-20 onwards, the index showed sharper movements, indicating rising
volatility. It climbed from 102.9 in 2019-20 to 108.7 in 2020-21, and then experienced a sharp jump to 141.7 in
2021-22. This spike can be attributed to the post-pandemic recovery, with rising commodity prices, supply chain
disruptions, and surging demand globally.
The index peaked at 151.9 in 2022-23, reflecting continued supply constraints and high energy costs, before
declining slightly to 136.4 in 2023-24 as the market began to stabilize. In FY 2024-25, the index further eased to
130.9, indicating a moderation in volatility while remaining elevated compared to pre-pandemic levels.
This trend highlights how external factors, such as global raw material price fluctuations and energy costs, have
had an increasing impact on the stainless steel market in India over the last decade. One of the key factors affecting
stainless steel prices is the volatility in nickel prices. Nickel is a crucial component in stainless steel production,
and geopolitical tensions have impacted its supply, particularly in regions like Indonesia and Russia. This has
resulted in a steady rise in stainless steel prices. Additionally, the surge in energy prices, especially electricity and
fuel, has increased operational costs for manufacturers, further contributing to price hikes. Another factor is the
Indian government’s imposition of import tariffs, aimed at boosting domestic production, which has led to a
restriction on imports and put additional upward pressure on local prices.
In terms of demand-supply dynamics, domestic demand for stainless steel remains strong, driven by sectors such
as construction, infrastructure, and automotive manufacturing. However, supply constraints, partly due to limited
production capacity and reduced imports, have resulted in price increases. Additionally, Indian stainless-steel
204producers have been focusing on exports, taking advantage of competitive pricing in international markets. This
shift has led to further tightening of the domestic supply, pushing prices upward.
Looking ahead, stainless steel prices are expected to remain volatile in the short term, with a potential for further
increases due to ongoing supply chain issues and the elevated cost of raw materials like nickel. However, over the
medium term, prices may soften as domestic production ramps up and raw material prices stabilize, though global
uncertainties may continue to influence the market. Overall, the outlook for stainless steel pricing in India will
depend on the balance between supply-side improvements and persistent global economic challenges.

India’s crude oil import volume has continued to rise, with imports reaching 242 MMT in FY 2025, reflecting
sustained dependence on foreign crude. Domestic crude-oil production, however, declined further to 28.7 MMT
in FY 2025, pushing the total supply to 271.1 MMT, of which 89.4% was met through imports an increase from
previous years. Such significant dependence on imported crude exposes India’s economy to international crude
price volatility and global supply disruptions.
To safeguard the economy from external shocks and preserve foreign exchange reserves, the government
continues to emphasize expansion of domestic Exploration & Production (E&P) activities. The long-term vision
aims to cut India’s oil import dependence by 50% by 2030. Expansion in the oil & gas sector including refining
capacity additions, pipeline infrastructure development, and rising investments under the National Infrastructure
Pipeline will continue to support stainless-steel demand in India, especially for pipes, process equipment, storage
vessels, and downstream infrastructure.
Demand Generation from Government Initiatives
Government Budgetary Allocation to Infrastructure Sector
Growing infrastructure spending is vital for overall infrastructure development as it has a multiplier effect on
overall economic growth. By allocating substantial funds to the development of roads, railways, airports, and
urban infrastructure, the government stimulates economic growth and improves public facilities. This investment
not only enhances connectivity and logistics but also creates a ripple effect, driving demand for EPC services.
Large-scale projects such as highway expansions, and smart city initiatives necessitate the expertise of EPC
companies, fostering innovation and efficiency in project execution. Consequently, the government's focus on
capex not only accelerates infrastructure development but also opens up a plethora of opportunities for the EPC
sector, contributing to job creation, technological advancements, and overall economic development.
Consequently, the government with stepped up public spending over the last few years has been providing support
to the sector.

If India is to become a USD 5 Trillion economy by 2025, as well as continue it strong economic growth, the
country will have to spend close to USD 4.5 trillion on infrastructure construction by 2030. National Infrastructure
Pipeline is the consolidated platform that captures the multiple infrastructure investment projects planned by the
Government to propel Indian economy to USD 5 trillion mark.
NIP comprise of nearly 9,736 projects which is together worth nearly USD 1.82 billion covering 56 diverse
industry segments. Of this nearly 2,014 projects are under various stages of development. With NIP spanning FY
2019 – 25 period, the remaining projects are expected to be developed in the next couple of years. This points to
a flurry of infrastructure construction activity in the country, which in turn would create numerous opportunities
for the EPC segment.
PM Gati Shakti
PM Gati Shakti plan – National Master Plant for Multi Modal Connectivity – launched in October 2021 is a digital
platform that is aimed at improving the coordination among multiple ministries and departments involved in
infrastructure development in the country. The program covers all the infrastructure initiatives outlined under
Bharatmala & Sagarmala initiatives, port development, dedicated freight corridor program of railways as well as
development of special economic zones.
India Infrastructure Project Development Fund Scheme (IIPDF Scheme)
The Department of Economic Affairs (DEA) introduced the India Infrastructure Project Development Fund
(IIPDF) Scheme on November 3, 2022, to enhance infrastructure development through Public-Private
Partnerships (PPPs). This scheme aims to improve the quality and speed of infrastructure projects by encouraging
private sector participation. The DEA focuses on creating a conducive policy framework for private investment
in infrastructure.
The IIPDF Scheme provides financial support to Project Sponsoring Authorities (PSAs) at both Central and State
Government levels, covering expenses for transaction advisors and consultants in PPP project development. This
funding ensures the development of viable and bankable PPP projects, promoting modern infrastructure across
the country. Complementing the IIPDF Scheme is the Viability Gap Funding (VGF) Scheme, which supports
economically justified but commercially unviable PPP projects. Together, these schemes facilitate the
development of quality infrastructure projects, enhancing efficiency and private capital infusion.
214The DEA's initiatives streamline the procurement of advisory services, addressing delays and suboptimal
structuring of PPP projects. By providing necessary funding and technical support, these schemes boost the EPC
sector, fostering innovation, efficiency, and sustainable infrastructure growth in India.
National Infrastructure Pipeline and PM Gati Shatkti program two of the flagship government programs that would
herald the next phase of growth in infrastructure development in India. Both the flagship policies outline ambitious
programs that entails investments of billons of dollar, and construction projects of the scale that has never been
attempted before. Apart from the mega projects, the focus on improving coordination between implementing
agencies and steps to remove project delays are also noteworthy. Together these two flagship policies provide
favourable demand scenario for the stainless-steel consumption in infrastructure construction segment.
Industrial Construction in India
After the implementation of economic liberalization policies in early 1990s, the industrial investment scenario in
India has largely been shaped by market forces. Government’s role was mostly related to designing and
implementing policies that would at best improve the investment landscape and attract private investment. Rapid
economic growth and rise in demand saw an influx of private investment which was directed towards improving
the industrial base of India. As a result, several industrial sectors in India went on to add capacity to become
amongst largest in the world.
However, the launch of Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme by the Government in 2020 to improve
domestic manufacturing capability of India is different from policies launched before. For one, the scheme offers
direct incentives on incremental sales from products manufactured in domestic units – thereby promoting domestic
production. At present PLI scheme is active in 14 industrial sectors, manufacturing products ranging from
electronics to medical devices.
Of the approximately Rs. 4 trillion in expected capital expenditure by corporates under the PLI scheme over five
to six years, Rs. 1 trillion had been invested by November 2023, representing around 25% of the total estimated
capex. The current capex deployment has generated approximately Rs. 9 trillion in incremental sales, which is 20-
25% of the total projected incremental sales of Rs. 35-40 trillion from the PLI scheme as of November 2023.
As of November 2023, eight sectors, including phone/electronics, pharma, and food products, have received
disbursements under the PLI scheme for FY2024. Additionally, two more sectors, textiles and white goods, are
expected to claim PLI incentives for FY 2024. Increasing industrial construction is likely to augment the demand
of stainless-steel industry.
Regulatory Scenario
Iron and steel industry play a strategic position in the overall economic development. Therefore, the government
has been taking sustained initiative on yearly basis towards the development of the industry. There is no
government imposed a restriction on production and sale of steel products and this has immensely helped in the
development of domestic manufacturing sector. Foreign investment norms have helped the country attract global
steel manufacturers who bought in improved manufacturing technology and processes. This move played
significant role in assisting steel companies to widen their product portfolio from basic steel products like hot
rolled & cold rolled steel to manufacturing of steel rebars and TMT bars. Currently 100% FDI under automatic
route is allowed in the steel sector.
Proposal to provide additional depreciation of 20% against 10% on new plant and machinery installed by a
manufacturing unit if the asset is installed after 30th Sep 2015 is a favorable move to boost investment in new
plant and machinery in steel industry.

aiming to reduce dependence on imported steel and stimulate domestic manufacturing. This fosters self-
reliance and boosts the Indian economy.
• Enhancing Quality Standards: By mandating a minimum 15% value addition in procured steel, the
policy encourages the use of superior quality products. This value addition could involve processing,
further manufacturing, or specific treatments to enhance the steel's properties. The Ministry of Steel holds
the discretion to review this criterion for better flexibility.
• Nation Building Through Steel: A robust domestic steel sector contributes significantly to India's
infrastructure development and overall economic growth. DMISP aims to create a thriving steel
ecosystem that supports nation-building efforts.
Waivers and Exceptions:
The policy acknowledges situations where domestic production might not fulfill project requirements. Here's
when waivers can be granted:
• Unavailability of Specific Steel Grades: If a project necessitates a particular steel grade not currently
manufactured domestically, a waiver can be obtained to procure it from international sources.
• Production Shortfalls: When domestic steel production capacity cannot meet the project's specific
quantity needs, a waiver allows for import to bridge the gap.
217Implementation and Oversight:
• Ministry of Steel's Role: The Ministry of Steel shoulders the responsibility of overseeing the policy's
effective implementation. They may issue clarifications, revise criteria, and ensure compliance across
government agencies.
• Obligations of Government Agencies: Every government department and PSU involved in
procurement is mandated to adhere to the DMISP guidelines. This ensures that preference is given to
qualifying domestic steel products in their tenders.
Trade Barriers / Protective Measures
The Indian government has implemented several trade barriers and protective measures to support the domestic
steel industry. One such measure is the Steel Import Monitoring System (SIMS), which requires importers to
provide advance information about intended steel imports. This system helps gather detailed data on end-use,
grade, and technical specifications. Additionally, the government has increased import duties on most steel items
by 2.5% on two occasions. Furthermore, anti-dumping and safeguard duties have been imposed on steel items to
protect the domestic industry from unfair trade practices. These trade barriers aim to safeguard and promote the
domestic steel sector in India.
Other Government Policies & Initiatives
Government schemes and initiatives such as National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP), Atmanirbhar Bharat,
Production Linked Incentives (PLI), PM Gati Shakti - National Master Plan, and National Manufacturing Policy
are creating a substantial demand for steel and steel products in the country. Moreover, current government’s
emphasis on infrastructure through Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation, Smart Cities, Mass
Rapid Transport System, Affordable Housing, Jal Jeevan Mission etc. and increasing budgetary allocation towards
infrastructure are also creating a significant demand for steel and stainless-steel products in the country.
Union Budget 2025-26 Announcement & Steel
Ministry of Steel Budget Allocation (2025-26): The net budget for the Ministry of Steel for FY 2025-26 has
been set at ₹ 3,362 crore.
• The budget continued the customs duty exemption on ferrous scrap and raw materials used for
manufacturing CRGO steel and stainless-steel/specialty steel inputs such as ferro-nickel and
molybdenum concentrates. This is viewed as a positive measure for steel manufacturers by easing input
costs.
• The government reaffirmed support for “specialty steel” under the Production Linked Incentive (PLI)
Scheme, ensuring continued financial incentives for domestic manufacturing of high-grade steel products
to reduce import dependence.
• The Basic Customs Duty (BCD) on key stainless-steel raw materials (including ferro-nickel, nickel-
bearing inputs, and molybdenum ores/concentrates) has been kept at nil to ensure cost competitiveness
for domestic producers once exemptions lapse.
• Trade-remedy duties remain dynamic. Earlier anti-dumping/countervailing duties revoked on categories
such as:
o Straight length bars and rods of alloy steel
o High-speed steel of non-cobalt grade
o Flat-rolled products (Al/Zn coated)
o Certain hot-rolled and cold-rolled stainless-steel flat products
In the current regime, duties are selectively re-introduced/maintained on sensitive items like stainless-
steel pipes & tubes and alloy/non-alloy steel tubular products to curb unfair imports.
• The government has strengthened regulatory safeguards through:
o Steel Quality Control Orders (QCOs) mandating BIS-certified carbon, alloy, and stainless-
steel products for sale/import to prevent sub-standard steel in the market.
o The Domestically Manufactured Iron & Steel Products (DMI&SP) Policy, giving preference
to domestic steel in government procurement, supporting local manufacturers.

Growth Forecast
With India being one of the fastest growing economies amongst global peers, the country’s stainless-steel demand
is expected to witness steady growth as projected under the ‘Stainless Steel Vision Document 2047’ by CRISIL
and the Indian Stainless Steel Development Association. The vision projects India’s per capita stainless-steel
consumption to grow to 8–9 kg by 2040 and further to 11–12 kg by 2047, while domestic consumption is expected
to grow to 12.7 MTPA and 20 MTPA by fiscals 2040 and 2047, indicating a promising growth trajectory.
In the near term, India’s stainless-steel consumption growth scenario remains intact on the back of substantial
government expenditure planned in major end-user industries under the National Infrastructure Pipeline and the
recently announced PM Gati Shakti project. Higher capital expenditure planned towards sectors with higher metals
consumption intensity such as Railways, Roads and Bridges, Water infrastructure, and Affordable Housing is
positive, as this will support demand for metals. Domestic stainless-steel consumption is estimated at
approximately 4.8 million tonnes (Mn t) in FY 2025, reflecting sustained demand. We expect the domestic
stainless-steel industry to grow to 5.5 million tonnes by 2030, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of

224Major Challenges
Increasing import from is cited as major threat to stainless steel product manufacturer. In Union-Budget 2021-22,
the government announced revocation of CVD on imports of certain hot rolled and cold rolled stainless steel flat
products originating or exported from China (uptill 30th September 2021) and subsequently extended it upto 31st
Jan 2022. Moreover, the budget also announced the revocation of the provisional CVD on import of flat products
of stainless steel, originating or exported from Indonesia.
The detail review of the industry development over the last two three years also suggests a large part of import
from Indonesia are being driven by the Chinese companies operating from Indonesia. China has been investing
aggressively in Indonesia to scale up SS capacity and displace India as a second largest SS player in world.
Indonesia total installed capacity stood at 5.5Mn tonnes, which was higher than India (5 Mn tonnes in 2021) and
the country replaced India to become the second largest SS producer globally in 2021.
In addition, Indonesia’s SS capacity is also 25 times more than their total annual domestic consumption
requirement of just 0.2 MTPA which serve India as a fertile dumping ground for Indonesian SS flat product exports
as Indonesia is a part of India's free trade agreement (FTA) with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations
(ASEAN).
This surge in cheaper import is severely hurting the supply dynamics of domestic SS industry with underutilized
domestic capacity which is dwindling somewhere near 60%. Majority of underutilized capacity is concentrated in
MSME segment which contributes about 28% share (1.4 Mn Tonnes) in total SS capacity of India. Under-
utilization of domestic capacity are adding its resulting woes to the domestic SS industry such as falling revenue,
declining profitability, significant unemployment, bringing fresh investment at halt, turning many companies out
of business, and converting many manufacturers into trader. As per recent insight from the President of Indian
Stainless Steel Development Association (ISSDA), about 30-35% of medium and small businesses in the stainless-
steel industry in Gujarat state which represents 80% of the MSMEs in the sector ceased their operation in Q2 FY
2024 due to heavy influx of cheaper Chinese imports.

Company Profiling: Rajputana Stainless Limited1
Background
Rajputana Stainless Limited (RSL), established in 1991, has been engaged in the steel manufacturing business for
over three decades. Throughout the years, RSL has expanded its production. The manufacturing facility is located
in Panchmahal district, Gujarat, and is equipped to produce a diverse range of products, including of billets,
forging ingots, rolled black bar, rolled bright bar, flat & patti and other ancillary product.
During the year 1999, RSL was declared a Non-BIFR Sick Industrial Unit vide Government of Gujarat, Industries
and Mines Department Resolution No. SIU-1098-668-CH under Scheme for Rehabilitation of Small Scale and
Non-BIFR Sick Viable Industries. Under the said resolution, Non-BIFR units referred to financially distressed
small-scale industries that did not meet the criteria of "sick industrial companies" under SICA and were thus not
eligible for reference to BIFR. Despite not qualifying under BIFR, these units often faced serious financial
challenges. The Government of Gujarat recognized this gap and, through the resolution, extended rehabilitation
support to viable sick small-scale units via mechanisms such as the Gujarat Board for Industrial and Financial
Reconstruction (GBIFR). Subsequently RSL was removed from list of Non-BIFR Sick Unit and became viable as
per the then norms of Government of Gujarat.

transportation of our products. RSL’s Manufacturing Facility is equipped with an induction furnace, Argon

Incorporated in 1991 we started our commercial journey in year 1993 with manufacturing of mild steel products
and steel castings. At the time of incorporation, the Company was promoted and run by the erstwhile promoters
i.e. Shri O.P. Agarwal, and Shri Ram Sharan Tambi. However, our Company was classified as a Non-BIFR Sick
Industrial Unit in the year 1999 vide Government of Gujarat, Industries and Mines Department Resolution No.
SIU-1098-668-CH under Scheme for Rehabilitation of Small Scale and Non-BIFR Sick Viable Industries
primarily due to default in cash credit facility from the Bank of Baroda, Halol Branch Gujarat. Under the said
resolution, Non-BIFR units referred to financially distressed small-scale industries that did not meet the criteria
of "sick industrial companies" under SICA and were thus not eligible for reference to BIFR. Despite not qualifying
under BIFR, these units often faced serious financial challenges. The Government of Gujarat recognized this gap
and, through the resolution, extended rehabilitation support to viable sick small-scale units via mechanisms such
as the Gujarat Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (GBIFR). Subsequently, during the year 1999-
2000, Our Promoters i.e. Shankarlal Deepchand Mehta and Babulal D Mehta were appointed as Directors on the
Board of the Company and later on, in the year 2007, Jayesh Natvarlal Pithva joined with them on the Board.
During this period 1999-2006, the management took various strategic steps for the revival of the Company
including shifting the main focus of the Company from producing mild steel products and steel casting to
producing stainless-steel products, setting up of bright bar shop and payment of outstandings dues which resulted
in improvement in the financial health of our Company and consequently our Company was removed from list of
Non-BIFR Sick Unit and became viable as per the then norms of Government of Gujarat. For further details, see
“History and Certain Corporate Matters” on page 275. Since emerging from sick-unit status, our Company has
made steady progress through operational initiatives including strengthening our manufacturing capabilities,
expanding our product portfolio, and building relationships with our customers.
Our Company undertakes and continuously evaluates initiatives aimed supporting product visibility and sustaining
business momentum. These efforts have helped us maintain consistent sales performance and foster long-term
customer relationships. To effectively market our products, we focus on a comprehensive approach that combines
direct engagement with manufacturers and large traders, constituting our existing and potential customers and
brand building through sponsorships. Our direct engagement efforts include personalized visits to manufacturers,
informal group meetings with manufacturers and periodic meets with select traders, which enables us to showcase
our latest product portfolio, gather feedback and insights and build relationships. We also participate in industry
exhibitions, which allows us to connect with existing and potential customers and gather market intelligence.
We consider our quality control procedures to be the cornerstone of our business operations. We have a dedicated
quality control department in our Company which is responsible for ensuring the quality of our raw materials and
also for our finished products along with its focus on continuous improvements in our manufacturing and quality
processes. As on the date of this Prospectus, we are accredited with ISO 9001:2015 for manufacturing and supply
of long stainless-steel and allied products, AD 2000-Merkblatt W0 certification as material manufacturer from
TUV NORD Systems GmbH & Co. KG. We have also received product certifications from the Bureau of Indian

Market Opportunity
• India’s production of finished steel has demonstrated consistent growth over the last five years,
increasing from 96.2 million tonnes in FY 2021 to 146.6 million tonnes in FY 2025. In FY 2024, finished
steel production stood at 139.2 million tonnes, continuing the sector’s strong upward trajectory supported
by capacity expansion and rising domestic demand. The private sector remained the primary driver of
growth, contributing the majority share of production, while public sector units (PSUs) accounted for
the remaining portion. Non-flat products primarily used in construction and infrastructure continued to
dominate overall production, while flat products used in automotive, engineering, and consumer durables
maintained steady growth.
• Finished steel consumption has also expanded sharply, rising from 94.9 million tonnes in FY 2021 to
152.0 million tonnes in FY 2025, reflecting robust demand across construction, real estate, capital goods,
and manufacturing sectors. Consumption in FY 2024 was 136.3 million tonnes, supported by strong
infrastructure spending and industrial activity. The significant rise in FY 2025 consumption signals
sustained economic momentum and increased steel intensity in key end-use industries.
• Over the FY 2021–FY 2025 period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for finished steel
production stands at 11.2%, while consumption has grown at an even faster CAGR of 12.5%. This
widening gap between consumption and production highlights India’s accelerating steel demand, driven
by large-scale infrastructure development, rapid urbanization, and expanding manufacturing capacities.
• India's booming economy, with growing demand from sectors like construction, automobile
manufacturing, and white goods production, continues to fuel its steel industry. The government's focus
237on infrastructure development and initiatives such as ‘Make in India’ and the National Infrastructure
Pipeline has also contributed to increased domestic steel consumption.
• Talking about India’s position in the global stainless-steel market, India, with an average 7% share in
global SS output (during 2016–20), remained the second largest stainless-steel producer behind China
till 2020. In 2021, the global SS production composition changed as Indonesia, the fourth largest SS
producer, replaced Japan and India to become the second largest SS producer globally. Industry sources
suggest Indonesia, with estimated SS output of 4.2 Mn tonnes in 2021, observed nearly 75% annual
growth against a 5.7% increase in 2020, while India’s SS output was estimated at 3.5 Mn tonnes. With
3.5 Mn tonnes SS output, India’s share in world SS output is estimated to have gradually reduced from
7.3% in 2016 to 6.2% in 2021.
• During FY 2023, India’s stainless-steel production was estimated to have declined by 3%, while
consumption observed about 3% y-o-y growth and stood at 2.73 Mn tonnes and 3.14 Mn tonnes,
respectively. During FY 2022 and FY 2023, stainless steel accounted for an average 33% of total alloy
steel production and 38% share in total alloy steel consumption.
• In terms of total finished steel (alloy/stainless and non-alloy), India’s production and consumption have
grown steadily. In FY 2025, total steel production reached 146.56 million tonnes, up 5.3% from
139.15 million tonnes in FY 2024. Total steel consumption in FY 2025 rose to 152.00 million tonnes,
marking an increase of 11.5% over 136.29 million tonnes in FY 2024. This indicates a strong rise in
domestic demand relative to production, highlighting robust steel consumption across key industrial and
infrastructure sectors and the significant role of alloy steels, including stainless steel, in India’s growth
trajectory.

Further, we propose to expand our manufacturing operations through forward integration and product
diversification by utilizing a portion of the vacant land within the premises of our existing manufacturing facility
to set up a plant for manufacturing stainless-steel seamless pipes. This expansion is one of the key objects of the
Fresh Issue. For further details, see “Objects of the Offer” on page 155.
As per the TEV Report issued by D&B India, some common industrial areas where stainless steel seamless pipes
are used include oil and gas industry, chemical and petrochemical industry, power generation, food and beverage
industry, automotive industry, construction and architecture.
Further, as per the said TEV Report, a few factors which suggest growing domestic demand for stainless steel pipes
and tubes are;
• The consumption of stainless-steel seamless pipes and tubes has grown from 80,626 MT in 2011-12 to
2,14,654 MT in 2023-24, aligning with the overall growth in consumption.
• Close to 18,000 MT extruded pipes were imported from China last year. However, in order to protect the
domestic market, the Government of India has presently imposed import restriction via government
imposition of duties and anti-dumping Duties on import of certain types of steel from China.
239• India’s strategic position under the China +1 strategy enhances its role as a global stainless-steel supplier,
driven by competitive costs and robust export infrastructure
• ‘Make in India’ campaign, PLI Schemes for specialty steel, and the Smart Cities Mission, has increased
and is expected to amplify demand of stainless-steel pipes in construction, automotive, and infrastructure
sectors.
The basic raw material required for manufacturing of stainless-steel seamless pipes is rolled bars, which is being
presently manufactured by the Company in its existing Manufacturing Facility with rolling mill installed capacity
of 36,000 MT per annum. By utilizing these in-house produced rolled bars, the proposed forward integration
initiatives would enable us to produce stainless-steel seamless pipes. This integrated approach is expected to
ultimately result in operational efficiency, reducing production costs, ensure consistent raw material supply and
improve the quality of our products, thus giving us a competitive advantage and allow us to achieve economies of
scale. For details, see “Objects of the Offer” on page 155.
In addition to in-house production at our Manufacturing Facility, we also engage third party manufacturing units
on job work basis to supplement our output. During the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and Fiscal
2025, 2024 and 2023, we sourced 534.77 MT, 2,990.82 MT, 6,800.27 MT and 3,455.49 MT respectively of
stainless-steel products such third party manufacturing units on job work basis. Our Company continuously
explores opportunities to engage new manufacturing units on a job work basis or through similar arrangements to
support production requirements. Outsourcing the manufacturing of some of our products enables us to enhance
our capabilities to cater to the client’s requirements and capitalize on the market opportunities.
Our Manufacturing Facility is strategically located at Halol Kalol Road, Kalol, Panchmahal in Gujarat with direct
connectivity to the National Highway (NH 148N). The location also offers convenient access to multiple modes
of transportation, facilitating efficient movement of both inbound raw materials and outbound finished goods. The

Established customer base and relationships
With over two decades of operating experience, we have established cordial relationships with a wide base of
customers. A key factor that differentiates us from our competitors is our customer-centric approach, offering
stainless-steel products tailored to specific customer requirements. This approach has supported our business
growth while helping us expand our presence in the industry we operate in.
Our business is primarily focused on the domestic market, with exports contributing a smaller share of total
revenue. During the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and Fiscal 2025 our revenue from export of our
Company’s products amounted to ₹27.60 lakhs, and ₹1,527.65 lakhs representing 0.06% and 1.64% of our
Company’s revenue from operations, respectively.
Our long-term association with our key customers also offers competitive advantages including revenue visibility,
industry goodwill and reputation for quality.
The table set forth below detail the contribution of our top 10 customers to our revenue from operations for the
six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023:

effectiveness of our management, our well-established customer relationship and cost monitoring that we have
implemented. Among other things, our strong financial position and results of operations have enabled us to
enhance scale of operation.
OUR STRATEGIES
Setting up of Stainless-Steel Seamless Pipes Unit
We propose to establish manufacturing of stainless-steel seamless pipes plant within the premise of our existing
Manufacturing Facility. The basic raw material required for manufacturing of stainless-steel seamless pipes is
rolled black/bright bar, which is being presently manufactured by the Company in its existing Manufacturing
Facility with rolling mill installed capacity of 36,000 MT per annum. This forward integration initiatives would
enable us to produce stainless-steel seamless pipes using raw materials manufactured in-house and will ultimately
result in operational efficiency, reducing product costs, controlling supply of raw materials, and monitoring the
quality of our products, thus giving us a competitive advantage. The proposed integrated set will also reduce
delivery timelines which will allows us to service our customers faster, leads to higher operating margins. For
details, see “Objects of the Offer” on page 155.
Further, with the proposed manufacturing plant of stainless-steel seamless pipes, would leverage the Company to
either opt to sell the intermediate product i.e. mother pipes to various companies engaged in pilgering of mother
pipes. This will widen the market for the Company as it will increase Company’s product portfolio and hence
customer base. This will further help in mitigating the offtake risk and also realize immediate sale.
Strengthening our foothold in our existing markets and expanding our customer base
A majority of our products are primarily sold domestically through direct sales and traders’ network and our
products act as a raw material in a number of other industries/units such as stainless-steel bar processing, seamless
pipes, forging, wire manufacturing engineering, casting, fasteners, utensils manufacturing, pump and shaft and
auto industry and others. The brief details of industry wise sale of our products for the six-month period ended
September 30, 2025, and last three fiscals is listed as below;

Further, while our revenue from operations has grown between Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2025, we have been
predominantly focused on the domestic market with small exports contribution. We aim to leverage our product
portfolio, customer acceptance in domestic markets and our presence in export markets to expand into new
international markets.
Further, with our integrated Manufacturing Facility along with proposed stainless-steel seamless pipes
manufacturing facility and capabilities, we also intend to continue focus on increasing our wallet share from our
existing domestic customers and establish relationships with new customers.
Continue to improve operations and profitability through strategic initiatives
We believe that our emphasis on quality operations and the provision of customized solutions has strengthened
the trust and engagement we have with our customers, in addition to contributing to the growth of our business.
We analyze our operational and maintenance processes on a regular basis to enhance efficiencies. We supplement
these measures by investing in new technology, improved machinery and minor automation. We believe that the
various strategic initiatives that we have implemented, including the continued investment in our manufacturing
facilities, developing and enhancing our in-house capabilities, and our supply-chain management protocols will
continue to play a critical role in our future success. Accordingly, we intend to build on our existing strategic
initiatives to achieve operational excellence that translates into financial strength and performance.
Continue our efforts towards training of manpower
Our success in the future will depend on our ability to continue to maintain a pool of experienced employees. We
have been successful in building a team of talented employees and intend to continue placing special emphasis on
managing attrition and attracting and retaining our employees. We also provide technical and functional training
to our employees. We intend to continue to encourage our employees to be enterprising and help them to ‘learn
on the job’ and grow within our organisation. We believe in internal progression, and this emanates from the
notion of making employees grow along with the organization.
Focus on rationalizing our indebtedness
We intend to rationalize our borrowings to improve our debt-to-equity ratio and lower our overall finance costs.
As on December 03, 2025, the amount outstanding under our loan facilities was ₹14,136.09 lakhs. We propose to
use a portion of the Net Proceeds to repay or prepay part of our borrowings. The repayment/ prepayment, will
help reduce our outstanding indebtedness, assist us in maintaining a favourable debt-equity ratio and enable
utilization of some additional amount from our internal accruals for further investment in business growth and
expansion. In addition, we believe that since our debt-equity ratio will improve significantly, it will enable us to
raise further resources at competitive rates and additional funds or capital in the future to fund potential business
development opportunities and plans to grow and expand our business in the future. For further details on the
proposed use of the Net Proceeds, see “Objects of the Offer” on page 155.

251252Flowchart of Manufacturing Process
A brief flow chart explaining the synergies of complete integration is presented below:
Manufacturing Process
Purchase and Testing of Raw Material
The scrap and Ferro Alloys are purchased as per different grade requirements. The scrap received is tested and
based on the requirement of finish goods it is used.
Our Manufacturing Facility is equipped with an induction furnace, a rolling mill and a bright bar shop.
Induction Furnace
To make stainless steel, the primary raw materials, i.e. scrap, is melted in an induction furnace. After melting
stage, the material goes to the AOD – Argon Oxygen Decarburization process. Here the molten material is further
processed to make low carbon stainless steel and to further purify the material. This stage involves blowing gases
like oxygen, nitrogen and argon through the submerged tuyeres of the AOD vessel. Also, ferro alloys and other
metal scrap are added to achieve the finish chemistry required for the material.
AOD provides an economical way to produce stainless steel with a minimal loss of precious elements. It is part
of a duplex process in which scrap or virgin raw materials are first melted in an induction furnace. The molten
metal is then decarburized and refined in a special AOD vessel to less than 0.05% carbon. The key feature in the
AOD vessel is that oxygen for decarburization is mixed with argon or nitrogen gases and injected through
submerged tuyeres. This argon dilution minimizes unwanted oxidation of precious elements contained in specialty
steels, such as chromium. Also, ferro alloys and other metal scrap is added to achieve the finish chemistry required
for the material.
After AOD process, the material is transferred to Continuous Casting Machine for casting as billets. The billets
are made of various sizes as per customer requirements and mould sizes. The continuous casting machine makes
billets in various sections.
253Rolling Mill
As per the requirement of finished product, the input i.e. billet sizes are decided and cut into required lengths.
These billets are either moved to the platforms of shearing machines or are cut into pieces of smaller lengths by
oxy-acetylene torches. Pneumatically operated shearing machines shear the billets into smaller sizes.
• Sheared billets are piled over one another manually and these piles are picked by overhead crane that
lifts it to the raised platform of pusher. Billets are placed manually in front of pusher. Pusher then pushes
the billets into the furnace.
• In furnace billets are heated to over 1200 degree Celsius. When billets reach the other end of the furnace
they are hot enough to be rolled.
• Red-hot billets are then pulled from the furnace on to the conveyor, which transports it to the rolling
stand. After passing through rolling stands several times (depending upon the type of bar required) they
are taken to the cooling bed. Bars rolled by the mill are transported to the cooling bed by conveyor.
• Bars are air-cooled while on cooling bed. Chains carry the bars and transport them at snail’s pace to the
conveyor. Slow speed of chains allows sufficient time for bars to cool down. Cooling bed adjacent to
mill drops the bars on to a conveyor which takes them to the bar yard. The other cooling bed drops them
directly in to the bar yard without employing any conveyor.
Heat Treatment Facility
Annealing through our heat treatment facility restores ductility and removes residual stress from processed metals.
We have 2 pot furnaces as well as an in-line strand annealing to enable us to produce intricate shapes without
overly taxing the material, improving the corrosion resistance, relieving residual stress and enhancing the
mechanical properties in stainless steel bars.
Bright Bar Shop
Bright Bar Shop is a step towards manufacturing value-added steel meant for certain critical applications. After
rolling billets/blooms, the Black, Hexagon, Square and other such bars are transferred to Bright Bar Shop. The
activities carried out in the Bright Bar Shop are rinsing, coating, cold drawing, straightening, and cutting.
• Cold Drawing: Cold drawing forms metal wire from a pre-rolled or pre-drawn condition into a secondary
or final shape by pulling it through precision draw dies.
• Straightening: Two different strengtheners that can handle a wide variety of shaped straightening are
used. In addition, heat treated bars can be straightened directly off of the heat treat line.
• Polishing: The bars are then polished using the polishing machine and these polished bars are called
bright bars.
• Cutting: The finished bright bars are now sent to the cutting machine to be cut into specific lengths
depending on the customer requirements.

1. Labour Law legislations
Shops and establishments legislations
Under the provisions of local shops and establishments legislations applicable in the states in India where
our establishments are set up and business operations exists, such establishments are required to be
registered. Such legislations regulate the working and employment conditions of the workers employed
in shops and establishments, including commercial establishments, and provide for fixation of working
hours, rest intervals, overtime, holidays, leave, termination of service, maintenance of records,
maintenance of shops and establishments and other rights and obligations of the employers and
employees. These shops and establishments’ acts, and the relevant rules framed thereunder, also
prescribe penalties in the form of monetary fine or imprisonment for violation of provisions, as well as
procedures for appeal in relation to such contravention of the provisions.
2. Other labour laws
The Industrial Relations Code, 2020
The Industrial Relations Code, 2020, streamlines Indian labour law by consolidating three key statutes
to enhance the ease of doing business. It significantly increases operational flexibility for companies by
raising the employee threshold from 100 to 300 for requiring prior government permission for layoffs,
retrenchment, and closure, and for mandating formal standing orders. 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, is a comprehensive legislation that consolidates and simplifies four central
labour laws: the Payment of Wages Act, 1936; the Minimum Wages Act, 1948; the Payment of Bonus
Act, 1965; and the Equal Remuneration Act, 1976. 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.
267Code on Social Security, 2020
The Code on Social Security, 2020, 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, 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 Cigar 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
A. Environmental Laws
The Environment Protection Act 1986 (the “Environment Protection Act”) and Environment
Protection Rules, 1986 (the “Environment Protection Rules”)
The Environment Protection Act was enacted to provide a framework for co-ordination of the activities
of various central and state authorities established under previous laws. The Environment Protection Act
authorises the central government to protect and improve environmental quality, control and reduce
pollution. The Environment Protection Act specifies that no person carrying on any industry, operation
or process shall discharge or emit or permit to be discharged or emitted any environmental pollutants in
excess of such standards as prescribed. The contravention or failure to comply with the provisions of the
Environment Protection Act may attract penalties in the form of imprisonment or fine. Further, the
Environment Protection Rules specifies, amongst others, the standards for emission or discharge of
environmental pollutants, and restrictions on the handling of hazardous substances in different areas.
The Environmental Impact Assessment Notification, 2006 (the “Notification”)
As per the Notification, any construction of new projects or activities or the expansion or modernization
of existing projects or activities as listed in the Schedule attached to the notification entailing capacity
addition with change in process and or technology can be undertaken only after the prior environmental
clearance from the Central government or as the case may be, by the State Level Environment Impact
Assessment Authority, duly constituted by the Central government under the provisions of the
Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, in accordance with the procedure specified in the notification. The
environmental clearance process for new projects comprises of four stages viz. screening, scoping, public
consultation and appraisal. However, in 2016, MoEF issued a notification for integrating standard and
objectively monitorable environmental conditions with building permissions for buildings of different
sizes with rigorous monitoring mechanism for implementation of environmental concerns and
268obligations in building projects. This is in line with the objective of the Central government to streamline
the permissions for buildings and construction sector so that affordable housing can be provided to
weaker sections in urban area under the scheme ‘Housing for All by 2022’and is proposing to remove
the requirement of seeking a separate environment clearance from the MoEF for individual buildings
having a total build up area between 5,000 square metre and 150,000 square metre, apart from adhering
to the relevant bye-laws of the concerned State authorities.
The Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 (the “Water Act”) and Air (Prevention
and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 (“Air Act”)
The Water Act prohibits the use of any stream or well for the disposal of polluting matter, in violation of
the standards set out by the concerned PCB. The Water Act also provides that the consent of the
concerned PCB must be obtained prior to opening any new outlets or discharges, which are likely to
discharge sewage or effluent. Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 (the “Air Act”) The
Air Act requires that any industry or institution emitting smoke or gases must apply in a prescribed form
and obtain consent from the state PCB prior to commencing any activity. The state PCB is required to

Defaults or rescheduling/ restructuring of borrowings with financial institutions/ banks
Except as stated below, there have been no instances of rescheduling/ restructuring of borrowings with financial
institutions/ banks in respect of our current borrowings from lenders.
Incorporated in 1991 we started our commercial journey in year 1993 with manufacturing of mild steel products
and steel castings. At the time of incorporation, the Company was promoted and run by the erstwhile promoters
i.e. Shri O.P. Agarwal, and Shri Ram Sharan Tambi. However, our Company was declared a Non-BIFR Sick
Industrial Unit in the year 1999 vide Government of Gujarat, Industries and Mines Department Resolution No.
SIU-1098-668-CH under Scheme for Rehabilitation of Small Scale and Non-BIFR Sick Viable Industries
primarily due to default in cash credit facility from the Bank of Baroda, Halol Branch Gujarat. Under the said
resolution, Non-BIFR units referred to financially distressed small-scale industries that did not meet the criteria
of "sick industrial companies" under SICA and were thus not eligible for reference to BIFR. Despite not qualifying
under BIFR, these units often faced serious financial challenges. The Government of Gujarat recognized this gap
and, through the resolution, extended rehabilitation support to viable sick small-scale units via mechanisms such
as the Gujarat Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (“GBIFR”). Subsequently, during the year 1999-
2000, Our Promoters i.e. Shankarlal Deepchand Mehta and Babulal D Mehta were appointed as Directors on the
Board of the Company and later on, in the year 2007, Jayesh Natvarlal Pithva joined with them on the Board.
During this period 1999-2006, the management took various strategic steps for the revival of the Company
including shifting the main focus of the Company from producing mild steel products and steel casting to
producing stainless-steel products, setting up of bright bar shop and payment of outstandings dues which resulted
in improvement in the financial health of our Company and consequently our Company was removed from list of
Non-BIFR Sick Unit and became viable as per the then norms of Government of Gujarat.

315RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
previous GAAP, as defined in IND AS 101. The reconciliation of effects of the transition from Indian

information compiled by the management from audited Ind AS financial statements of the Company as
at and for the years or period ended September 30th, 2025, March 31st, 2025, March 31st, 2024, and
March 31st, 2023.

Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as per the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016 notified under Section 133 of
Companies Act, 2013, (the ‘Act’) and other relevant provisions of the Act.
C. Basis of Measurement
The Restated Financial Information have been prepared in Indian Rupees (in Lakhs) which is the functional
currency of the company. All amounts have been rounded off to two decimal point of the nearest Lakhs,
unless otherwise indicated.
These Restated financial Information have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain
financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained
in the material accounting policies. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the
consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
Fair value is the price that would be received on sell of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at 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 Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if
market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at
the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these financial
statements is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions, if any. that are
within the scope of Ind AS 102 and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not
fair value, such as net realisable value in Ind AS 2 or value in use in Ind AS 36.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2,
or 3 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 described as follows:
316RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
•• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that
the entity can access at the measurement date;
•• Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for
the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
•• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
D. Basis of presentation
The Restated financial Information have been prepared on accrual and going concern basis. The
accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods presented in the restated financial
information.
Any asset or liability is classified as current if it satisfies any of the following conditions :
• the asset/liability is expected to be realized/settled in the Company’s normal operating cycle;
• the asset is intended for sale or consumption;
• the asset/liability is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
• the asset/liability is expected to be realized/settled within twelve months after the reporting period
• the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a
liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date;
• in the case of a liability, the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of
the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current.
E. Use of estimates
The preparation of the financial statements is in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make
estimates, judgments, and assumptions. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the
application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the period. Accounting estimates could change from period to period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management becomes
aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on going concern basis.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the
revision affects only that period. If the revision affects both current and future period, the same is
recognized accordingly.

Note: 1: MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Property, Plant and Equipment:
An item of property, plant and equipment that qualifies as an asset is measured on initial recognition
at cost. Following initial recognition, Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) are carried at cost, as reduced
by accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. The Company identifies and determines
cost of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment separately, if the part has a cost which
is significant to the total cost of that item of property, plant and equipment and has useful life that is
materially different from that of the remaining item. Cost comprises of purchase price / cost of
construction, including non-refundable taxes or levies and any expenses attributable to bring the PPE
to its working condition for its intended use. Project pre-operative expenses and expenditure incurred
during construction period are capitalized to various eligible PPE. Borrowing costs directly attributable
to acquisition or construction of qualifying PPE are capitalised.
Spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment that meet the definition of property, plant
and equipment are capitalized at cost and depreciated over their useful life. Costs in the nature of
repairs and maintenance are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss as and when incurred. Cost
of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work in progress.
Advances given towards acquisition of fixed assets outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are
disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of PPE (other than freehold land and properties
under construction) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The
estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each
reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
PPE are depreciated over its estimated useful lives, determined as under:

Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
Depreciation on additions/deletion during the year is provided on pro-rata basis. The management
believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over
which the assets are likely to be used.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic
benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the
disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference
between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
B. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets with finite useful lives which are acquired separately or developed in house are carried
at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on
a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortisation method
are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being
accounted for on a prospective basis.
An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from
use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the
difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognised in
profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.
Intangible assets are depreciated over its estimated useful lives, determined as under:
Assets Useful Life

C. Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible assets
The Company assesses, at each Balance Sheet date, whether there is any indication that an asset may
be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset.
If such recoverable amount of the asset or the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which
the asset belongs is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable
amount. The reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is recognized in the Statement of Profit &
Loss. If at the Balance Sheet date, there is an indication that a previously assessed impairment loss is no
longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed, and the asset is reflected at the recoverable
amount.

(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)

D. Financial Assets
I. Initial recognition and measurement
All Financial Assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not
recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction cost that are attributable to the acquisition
of the Financial Asset. However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing
component are measured at transaction price. Transaction costs directly attributable to the
acquisition of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss are recognized
immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
II. Subsequent measurement:
For subsequent measurement, the Company classifies a financial asset in accordance with the below
criteria:
(1) The Company’s business model for managing the financial asset and
(2) The contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
a) Financial assets measured at amortized cost
A financial asset is measured at the amortized cost if both the following conditions are met:
• Company’s business model objective for managing the financial asset is to hold financial assets
in order to collect contractual cash flows, and
• The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are
solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
This category applies to cash and bank balances, trade receivables, loans and other financial
assets of company. Such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the
effective interest method, except when the effect of applying it is immaterial. The amortized cost
of a financial asset is also adjusted for loss allowance, if any.
b) Financial assets measured at FVTOCI
A financial asset is measured at FVTOCI (fair value through other comprehensive income) if both of
the following conditions are met:
• The Company’s business model objective for managing the financial asset is achieved both by
collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets, and
• The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are
solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
All investments in equity instruments classified under financial assets are initially measured at Fair
Value, the Company may, on initial recognition, irrevocably elect to measure the same either at
FVTOCI or FVTPL (Fair value through profit or loss). The Company makes such election on an
instrument-by-instrument basis. Fair value changes on an equity instrument are recognised as other
320RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
income in the Statement of Profit and Loss unless the Company has elected to measure such instrument
at FVTOCI.
c) Financial assets measured at FVTPL
A financial asset is measured at FVTPL unless it is measured at amortized cost or at FVTOCI. This is
a residual category applied to all other investments of the Company excluding investments in
subsidiaries, joint ventures and associate companies, which are recorded at cost and tested for
impairment in case of any such indication of impairment. Such financial assets are subsequently
measured at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value changes are recognized in the Statement
of Profit and Loss. Dividend income on the investments in equity instruments are recognised as ‘other
income’ in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
III. Foreign exchange gains and losses
The fair value of financial assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign
currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of each reporting period. For foreign currency
denominated financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVTPL, the exchange differences are
recognised in profit or loss except for those which are designated as hedging instruments in a
hedging relationship.
IV. Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar
financial assets) is derecognized (i.e. removed from Company’s Balance Sheet) when any of the
following occurs:
a. The contractual rights to cash flows from the financial asset expires;
b. Company transfers its contractual rights to receive cash flows of the financial asset and has
substantially transferred all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset;
c. Company retains the contractual rights to receive cash flows but assumes a contractual obligation
to pay the cash flows without material delay to one or more recipients under a ‘pass-through’
arrangement (thereby substantially transferring all the risks and rewards of ownership of the
financial asset);
d. Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all risk and rewards of ownership and does
not retain control over the financial asset.
In cases where the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and
rewards of the financial asset, but retains control of the financial asset, Company continues to
recognize such financial asset to the extent of its continuing involvement in the financial asset. In that
case, Company also recognizes an associated liability. The financial asset and the associated
liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that Company has retained.
On derecognition of a financial asset, 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 other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss
321RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
if such gain or loss would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that
financial asset.
V. Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses, at each balance sheet date, whether a financial asset or a group of financial
asset is impaired. Ind AS 109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through a loss
allowance. Company recognizes lifetime expected losses for all contract assets and all trade
receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For all other financial assets, expected
credit losses are measured at an amount equal to 12 month expected credit losses or at an amount
equal to lifetime expected losses, if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly
since initial recognition, except when the effect of applying it is immaterial.
E. Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity
in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial
liability and an equity instrument.
I. Equity instruments:
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after
deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a Company entity are recognised at the
proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Repurchase of Company’s own equity instruments is
recognised and deducted directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the
purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of Company’s own equity instruments.
II. Financial Liabilities:
a. Initial Recognition and Measurement
Financial liabilities are recognised when Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions
of the instrument. Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value.
b. Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate
method, except when the effect of applying it is immaterial. Financial liabilities carried at fair
value through profit or loss are measured at fair value with all changes in fair value recognised
in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
c. Foreign exchange gains and losses
Financial liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency and are measured at amortised
cost at the end of each reporting period, the foreign exchange gains and losses are determined
based on the amortised cost of the instruments and are recognised in profit or loss. The fair value
of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency
and translated at the closing rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that
322RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
are measured as at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains
or losses and is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
d. Derecognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognized 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 Derecognition of the original
liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference between the carrying amount of
the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid is recognized in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
III. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
The Company uses certain derivative financial instruments to reduce business risks which arise from
its exposure to foreign exchange. The instruments are confined principally to forward foreign
exchange contracts. The instruments are employed as hedges of transactions included in the financial
statements or for highly probable forecast transactions contractual commitments.
Derivatives are initially accounted for and measured at fair value on the date the derivative contract
is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting
period.
The Company adopts hedge accounting for forward foreign exchange wherever possible. At the
inception of each hedge, there is a formal, documented designation of the hedging relationship. This
documentation includes, inter alia, items such as identification of the hedged item and transaction
and nature of the risk being hedged. At inception, each hedge is expected to be highly effective in
achieving an offset of changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. The
effectiveness of hedge instruments to reduce the risk associated with the exposure being hedged is
assessed and measured at the inception and on an ongoing basis. The ineffective portion of
designated hedges is recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.
When hedge accounting is applied:
• for fair value hedges of recognised assets and liabilities, changes in fair value of the hedged
assets and liabilities attributable to the risk being hedged, are recognised in the statement
of profit and loss and compensate for the effective portion of symmetrical changes in the
fair value of the derivatives.
• for cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the change in the fair value of the derivative
is recognised directly in other comprehensive income and the ineffective portion is recognised
in the statement of profit and loss. If the cash flow hedge of a firm commitment or forecasted
transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or liability, then, at the time the
asset or liability is recognised, the associated gains or losses on the derivative that had
323RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
previously been recognised in equity are included in the initial measurement of the asset or
liability.
• For hedges that do not result in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a liability, amounts
deferred in equity are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the same period in
which the hedged item affects the statement of profit and loss.
In cases where hedge accounting is not applied, changes in the fair value of derivatives are
recognised in the statement of profit and loss as and when they arise. Hedge accounting is
discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no longer
qualifies for hedge accounting. At that time, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument
recognised in equity is retained in equity until the forecasted transaction occurs. If a hedged
transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognised in equity is
transferred to the statement of profit and loss.
F. Revenue Recognition
I. The company derives revenue mainly from Domestic and Export Sales of stainless products such as
Steel Billets, Angles, Wire Rod etc. Revenue is recognized on satisfaction of performance obligation
upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. To
recognize revenues, we apply the following five step approach:-
1. identify the contract with a customer
2. identify the performance obligations in the contract,
3. determine the transaction price,
4. allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and
5. recognize revenues when a performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue from sales of products and services are recognised at a time on which the performance
obligation is satisfied. i.e. on delivery of goods / services . In determining whether an entity has
right to payment, the entity shall consider whether it would have an enforceable right to demand or
retain payment for performance completed to date if the contract were to be terminated before
completion for reasons other than entity’s failure to perform as per the terms of the contract.
Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction
price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price
of goods sold and services rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts
and schemes offered by the Company as part of the contract.
II. Revenue from sale of power is recognised upon transmission of units of generated power at the grid
of the purchasing electricity company on rates agreed with the beneficiaries, excluding service
charge where separately indicated in the agreement.
III. Export Incentives under various schemes are accounted in the year of export.
324RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
IV. Interest income is recognised on the time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding
and the rate applicable.
V. Rental income are recognized on accrual basis in accordance with the terms of agreements.
VI. Insurance and other claims are accounted for as and when admitted by the appropriate authorities
in view of uncertainty involved in ascertainment of final claim.
VII. Other Income are recognized on accrual basis.
G. Inventories
I. Inventories of raw materials, work-in-progress, stores and spares, finished goods and stock-in-
trade are stated at cost or net realisable value, whichever is lower.
II. Cost comprises all cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the
inventories to their present location and condition. Due allowance is estimated and made for
defective and obsolete items, wherever necessary.
III. A cost formula used is 'First-in-First-out'.
IV. Stock of Scraps is valued at net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling
price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated cost of completion and estimated cost
necessary to make sale.
H. Leases
The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at the inception of the contract. A contract
is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a
period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control
the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether
I. the contract involves the use of identified asset;
II. the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset through
the period of lease and;
III. the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
As a Lessor
At inception or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Company allocates
the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative standalone prices.
When the Company acts as a lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance
lease or an operating lease.
As a lessee
The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a lease liability at the lease commencement
date. The ROU 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
325RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
asset to the Company by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the
Company 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, plant
and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any,
and adjusted for certain remeasurements 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 Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its
incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The Company determines the incremental borrowing
rate by obtaining interest rates from banks.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprises fixed payments, including
in-substance fixed payments, amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and
the exercise price under a purchase option that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, lease
payments in an optional renewal period if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an extension
option and penalties for early termination of a lease unless the Company is reasonably certain not to
terminate early.
When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying
amount of the ROU or is recorded in Statement of Profit or Loss if the carrying amount of the ROU has
been reduced to zero. the Company remeasures the lease liability by discounting the revised lease
payments using the revised discount rate that reflects the change to an alternative benchmark interest
rate. Lease Liabilities have been presented as separate line and the ‘ROU’ has been presented
separately in the Balance Sheet. Lease payments have been classified as financing activities in the
Statement of Cash Flows.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
Short-term leases and leases of low value assets The Company has elected not to recognise right-of use
assets and lease liabilities for leases of low value assets and short-term leases. The Company recognises
the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease
term.
I. Foreign currency transactions and translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of the Company at exchange
rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies
at the reporting period are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date.
Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currencies which are carried at historical cost are reported
using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and non-monetary items which are carried at
fair value or any other similar valuation denominated in a foreign currency are reported using the
exchange rates at the date when the fair value was measured.
326RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
Exchange differences arising on monetary items on settlement, or restatement as at reporting date, at
rates different from those at which they were initially recorded, are recognized in the statement of
profit and loss in the year in which they arise.
J. Borrowing Costs:
Borrowing costs are interest and ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of
borrowings.
General and specific borrowing costs attributable to acquisition and construction of any qualifying asset
(one that takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its designated use or sale) are capitalised
until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale, and included as part
of the cost of that asset.
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.
All the other borrowing costs are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss within Finance costs of
the period in which they are incurred.
K. Employee benefits
I. Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled
wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related
service are recognised in respect of employees' services up to the end of the reporting period and
are measured on an undiscounted basis at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are
settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance sheet.
II. Other long-term employee benefit obligations
Liabilities recognised in respect of other long-term employee benefits are measured at the present
value of the estimated future cash outflows expected to be made by the Company in respect of
services provided by employees up to the reporting date.
a. Defined contribution plans
The Company recognizes contribution payable to the provident fund & Superannuation scheme
as an expense, 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. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for
services received before the balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the
extent that the pre-payment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payment or a cash
refund.
327RAJPUTANA STAINLESS LIMITED
(CIN: U27109GJ1991PLC015331)
Notes Forming Integral Part of the Restated Financial Statements
b. Defined benefit plans
The Company pays gratuity to the employees who have completed five years of service with
the Company at the time of resignation/superannuation/death.
Retirement benefits in the form of gratuity is defined benefit obligations and is provided for on
the basis of an actuarial valuation, using projected unit credit method as at each balance sheet
date.
Re-measurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling,
excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on
plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are
recognized immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained
earnings through Profit & Loss Account in the period in which they occur. Re-measurements are
not reclassified to statement of profit and loss in subsequent periods.
The annual premium cost incurred on Key man Insurance Cover is debited as expense in the
profit & Loss account.
L. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
I. Current Tax:
Income tax expense is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent that it
relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity. Current tax is
the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of
previous years.
II. Deferred Tax:
Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the
amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected
to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been
enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they
relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different
tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax
assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.
A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will
be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are
reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that
the related tax benefit will be realized.

M. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
I. Provisions:
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or
constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material,
provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that
reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as
a finance cost.
II. Contingent Liabilities:
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present
obligation that may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources. Where there is a possible
obligation or a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote,
no provision or disclosure is made.
III. Contingent assets:
Contingent assets are not recognized 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 recognized in the period in which the change occurs.
N. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the equity
shareholders of Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
period. The 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 for the
period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding
during the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
O. Statement of Cash Flow
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects
of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts
or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash
flows are segregated into operating, investing and financing activities.

P. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term
deposits with banks that are readily convertible into cash which are subject to insignificant risk of
changes in value and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.
Q. Segment reporting
Operating Segment are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the
Chief operating decision maker (CODM). Identification of segments: In accordance with Ind AS 108
"Operating Segment", the operating segment used to present segment information reviewed by CODM
to allocate resources to the segments and assess their performance. An operating segment is a
component of the company that engages in the business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs
expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Company's other
components.

The allowance for doubtful debts in respect of trade receivables has been created using the Expected Credit Loss
(ECL) method, based on management’s assessment and judgment. Trade receivables to the extent of the ECL
provision are classified as doubtful, while the balance is considered good.
At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews outstanding customer exposures to assess expected
credit losses. Based on historical trends, trade receivables have not indicated any material credit losses.
Impairment is recognized on the basis of lifetime expected losses, determined using management’s best estimates.
The management further considers that receivables overdue for more than 180 days, but not impaired, remain
fully recoverable owing to past payment behaviour and detailed assessment of customer credit risk.
The movement in allowance for expected credit loss on credit impairment trade receivables is as follows:

The financial instruments are categorised into three levels based on the inputs used to arrive at fair
value measurements as described below:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Inputs other than the quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Inputs based on unobservable market data.
Valuation Methodology
All financial instruments are initially recognised and subsequently re-measured at fair value as described
below:
a) The fair value of investment in units of unquoted mutual funds is determined by reference to their
prevailing net asset values.
b) Derivative assets arising from forward contracts are measured at fair value in accordance with Ind AS 109
Financial Instruments and Ind AS 113 Fair Value Measurement.

2 Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company is
exposed to credit risk from its operating activites (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing / investing activities, including deposits with banks and mutual
fund investments. The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk with any counterparty.
The carrying amount of following financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure:
a) Trade receivables
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the factors that may
influence the credit risk of its customer base, including the default risk of the industry and country in which customers operate. The Company has a credit evaluation
policy for each customer and based on the evaluation, credit limit of each customer is defined. The Risk Management Committee has established a credit policy under
which each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the Company’s standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The
Company’s review includes external ratings, if they are available, and in some cases bank references. Sale limits are established for each customer and reviewed
quarterly. Any sales exceeding those limits require approval from the Managing Director.
b) Cash and Cash equivalents, bank balances and other financial assets
The Company maintains exposure in cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks. Cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits are held with high rated
banks/financial institutions and short term in nature, therefore credit risk is perceived to be low.
3 Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or
another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when
they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
The majority of the Company’s trade receivables are due for maturity within 60 days from the date of billing to the customer. Further, the general credit terms for
trade payables are approximately 45 days. The difference between the above mentioned credit period provides surplus working credit requirements.

We have not entered a contractual arrangement for supply of our products with all the customers and instead we
rely on purchase orders to govern the volume and other terms of our sales. We cannot assure you that we will be
able to sell the quantities we have historically supplied to such customers. In the event our competitors’ products
offer better margins to such customers or otherwise incentivize them, there can be no assurance that our customers
will continue to place orders with us. Most of our transactions with our customers are typically on a purchase
order basis without any commitment to a fixed volume of business. There can also be no assurance that our
customers will place their orders with us on current or similar terms, or at all. Further, our customers could change
their business practices or seek to modify the terms that we have customarily followed with them, including in
relation to their payment terms. While we negotiate product prices and payment terms with our customers, in the
event our customers alter their requirements, it could have a material adverse effect on our business growth and
prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, our customers may also cancel
purchase orders at short notice or without notice, which could have an impact on our inventory management. In
the event of frequent cancellations of purchase orders, the same could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
While we believe that we have maintained good and long-standing relationships with our customers, for instance,
our top five (5) customers have been associated with us for over 3 years, however, there can be no assurance that
we will continue to have such a long-term relationship with them. Significant dependence on a select and small
group of customers may increase the potential volatility of our results of operations. We may continue to remain
dependent upon our key customers for a substantial portion of our revenues. During six-month ended September
30, 2025, and Fiscal 2025, our largest customer accounted for 11.09% and 8.25% of our revenues.
The loss of all or a significant portion of sales to any of our top 10 customers, for any reason including the loss of
contracts or inability to negotiate favourable terms, failure to meet their quality or design specification, our
inability to respond to change in market trends, economic changes, shortage of skilled labour, our disputes with
these customers, adverse changes in their financial condition, insolvency or bankruptcy of these customers,
decrease in their sales, any action undertaken by the government affecting business of these customers, etc. could
have an adverse impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Further, these
customers may change their outsourcing strategy by replacing us with our competitors or replacing our product
with alternative products which we do not supply. Also, these customers may demand price reductions, and we
398cannot assure you that we will be able to offset any reduction in prices to these customers with reductions in our
costs.
While we have not encountered any loss of major customers during the six-month period ended September 30,
2025, and in the last three Fiscals, there can be no assurance that we would not lose any of our major customers
in the future. Any loss of our major customers may reduce our sales and affect our estimates of anticipated sales,
and may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Also,
see “Risk Factor - We derive the majority of sale from the domestic market and a significant portion of our
domestic sales are derived from the states of Maharashtra, Gujarat & Uttar Pradesh. Any adverse developments
in this market could adversely affect our business” on page 44.
We rely substantially on our top 10 suppliers of the raw materials and work-in-progress goods used in our
manufacturing processes. Any shortages, delay or disruption may have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The principal raw materials include stainless steel scrap, mild steel scrap, oxygen, nitrogen, argon, ferro alloys e,
etc. Although, we enter into contracts with some of our suppliers, we cannot assure that we will be in a position
to procure our raw materials in a timely manner. Uninterrupted supply is vital to our operations and margins, but
factors like supplier disruptions, allocation priorities, logistics challenges, commodity price fluctuations, natural
disasters, and regulatory changes can affect availability and costs. The absence of long-term contracts with all
suppliers further exposes us to price volatility, impacting profitability.
We procure our raw materials, both from the domestic market and international market, depending upon the price
and availability of raw materials. Our costs towards purchases for six-month period ended September 30, 2025,
Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 was ₹39,084.46 lakhs, ₹70,119.14 lakhs, ₹73,680.99 lakhs and
₹75,513.48 lakhs comprising 77.93%, 75.22%, 80.99% and 79.68% of our Revenue from operations, respectively.
The following table sets forth our expenses towards procurement of imported goods, in absolute terms and as a
percentage of total expense, for the periods indicated:

Note: As certified by the Statutory Auditors M/s Ruparel & Bavadiya (FRN:126260W) through certificate dated December 30, 2025.
The shift towards imports has primarily been driven by cost advantages and the demand for certain raw materials.
In several instances, imported raw materials have proven to be more cost-effective compared to domestic
alternatives, especially when considering landed cost, quality, and yield efficiency. Consequently, the Company
enhanced its procurement of imported scrap, which contributed to improved operational efficiency and better
margins

September 30, 2025, Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 are set out below:

For further information, see “Our Business – Raw Materials” on page 259.
399A part of our raw materials and consumables are also imported. UAE, Malaysia, South Korea, Hong Kong and
U.S.A constituted the top 5 countries from which the raw materials were imported during the last three financial
years. As a result, we continue to remain susceptible to the risks arising out of foreign exchange rate fluctuations
as well as import duties, which could result in a decline in our operating margins.
If we cannot fully offset the increase in raw material prices with an increase in the prices for our products, we will
experience lower profit margins, which in turn may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and
financial condition.
Although we have not faced significant disruptions in the procurement of raw materials during the six-month
period ended September 30, 2025, and in the last three Fiscals, except during COVID-19 pandemic which
temporarily affected our ability to source raw materials from certain vendors who were unable to transport raw
materials to us. There can be no assurance that in future we will be able to procure the required quantities and
quality of raw materials commensurate with our requirements.
Any delay in supplying finished products to customers in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
purchase orders, such as delivery within a specified time, as a result of delayed raw material supply, could result
in the customer refusing to accept our products, which may have an adverse effect on our business and reputation.
We derive the majority of sales from the domestic market and a significant portion of our domestic sales are
derived from the states of Maharashtra, Gujarat & Uttar Pradesh. Any adverse developments in this market
could adversely affect our business.
We derive the majority of sales from the domestic market. The following table sets forth a breakdown of our

In India, we currently sell our products in fourteen (14) states and two (2) union territories through direct sales
and our traders’ network. We generate significant revenue from operations from the state of Maharashtra, Gujarat
and Uttar Pradesh which amounts to ₹45,684.91 lakhs, ₹84,500.50 lakhs, ₹79,245.58 lakhs and ₹86,416.05 lakhs

*Any discrepancies in any table between the total and the sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding off.
400Due to the geographic concentration of the sale of our products in the above stated states / regions specially in
Maharashtra, Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh, our operations are susceptible to local and regional factors, such as
economic and weather conditions, adverse social and political events, natural disasters, demographic changes,
and other unforeseen events and circumstances. Consequently, any significant social, political or economic
disruption, natural calamities or civil disruptions in these regions, changes in policies of the State or local
governments or the Government of India or adverse developments related to competition in these regions, may
adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. While we have not
experienced any such instances which adversely impacted our business and results of operations during the six-
month period ended September 30, 2025, and in the last three Fiscals, we cannot assure you that such instances
will not arise in the future.
Changes in market demand for our existing stainless-steel products, as well as downturns in end-use industries,
may adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from the sale of our stainless-steel products such as rolled black
bars, rolled bright bars, billets, flat bars, ingots, and stainless-steel wire rods. Consequently, our business is
sensitive to trends in the pipe and structural steel industry in which we operate, as well as in the industries in
which our products are used, including bar processing, seamless pipes, forging, wire manufacturing, engineering,
casting, fasteners, utensils manufacturing, pump and shaft manufacturing, and the auto industry.
Any downturn in these industries may result in a decline in demand for our products, which could materially and
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Additionally, a decline in
our customers’ business performance may also lead to a corresponding decrease in demand for our products. The
volume and timing of sales to our customers may vary due to fluctuations in demand for their products, efforts to
manage their inventory levels, changes in their product mix or design, availability of substitutes, and other
macroeconomic factors.
Further, any significant shift in demand for our products, or if customers begin sourcing from alternative suppliers,
or if superior substitute products emerge, or if there is a significant technological change in how such products
are produced, could negatively impact our revenue, margins and cash flows. Although we have not experienced
any material decline in the sale of our finished products during the six-month period ended September 30, 2025,
or in the past three Fiscals, there can be no assurance that such downturns or reductions in demand will not occur
in the future.
Unfavorable industry conditions may also result in increased commercial disputes, pricing pressure, and risk of
supply chain disruptions, all of which may adversely impact our financial and operational performance.

drawback charges, Freight charges and Insurance claim received.
Note: Any discrepancies in any table between the total and the sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding off.
Any adverse change in demand dynamics, whether due to industry-specific cycles, technological evolution, or
customer preferences, may materially impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Our business is a high volume-low margin business. Any disruption in our turnover or failure to regularly
grow the same may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
The stainless-steel industry is a high-volume low margin business due to various reasons such as higher operating
costs and fixed as compared to cost of product. Our inability to regularly increase our turnover and effectively
execute our key business processes could lead to lower profitability and hence adversely affect our operating
results, debt service capabilities and financial conditions. Due to the nature of the products we manufacture and
sell and due to high competition, we may not be able to charge higher margins on our products. Hence, our
business model is heavily reliant on our ability to effectively grow our turnover and manage our key processes
including but not limited to procurement of raw material and timely sales / order execution.

402As part of our growth strategy, we aim to improve our functional efficiency and expand our product portfolio and
business operations. Our growth strategy is subject to and involves risks and difficulties, many of which are
beyond our control and, accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be able to implement our strategy or
growth plans or complete them within the timelines. Further, we operate in a dynamic industry, and on account
of changes in market conditions, industry dynamics, technological improvements or changes and any other
relevant factors, our growth strategy and plans may undergo changes or modifications, and such changes or
modifications may be substantial, and may even include limiting or foregoing growth opportunities if the situation
so demands. Due to the nature of our business involving low profit margins, sudden changes with respect to price
movements in goods being traded or sudden ad hoc anomalies in business or operations could substantially affect
our net bottom lines and hence, adversely affect our results of operations and financial conditions. For further
details, see “Management’s Discussions and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” on
page 396”.
Our inability to collect receivables from our customers or default on payment by them could result in a
reduction in our profits and affect our cash flow.
Our operations involve extending credit for extended periods of time to our customers in respect of our products
and consequently, we face the risk of non-receipt of these outstanding amounts in a timely manner or at all,
particularly in the absence of long-term arrangements with our customers. While we have not adopted any credit
policy, we typically operate on pre-sanctioned credit limits with customers and cannot guarantee that our
customers will not default on their payments. While we generally monitor the ability of our customers to pay these
open credit arrangements and limit the credit, we extend to what is reasonable and based on an evaluation of each
customer’s financial condition and payment history, we may still experience losses because of a customer being
unable to pay. Any inability to collect receivables from our customers in a timely manner or at all in future, could
adversely affect our working capital cycle and cash flows.

Macroeconomic conditions could also result in financial difficulties, including insolvency or bankruptcy of our
customers and as a result could cause customers to delay payments to us or request modifications to their payment
arrangements, that could increase our receivables or affect our working capital requirements or default on their
payment obligations to us. During the six-month period ended September 30, 2025, and in the Fiscals 2025, 2024,
and 2023, our bad debts were nil. An increase in bad debts or in defaults by our customers may compel us to
utilize greater amounts of our operating working capital and result in increased financing costs, thereby adversely
affecting our results of operations and cash flows.

Revenue from operations
Our revenue from operations increased by 2.46% from ₹90,980.80 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹93,215.58 lakh in
Fiscal 2025. The increase in revenue during Fiscal 2025 was primarily due to favourable market conditions
compared to Fiscal 2024 which was primarily due to the reasons set forth below:

Revenue from Sale of products increased 2.70% from ₹90,332.46 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹92,769.82 lakh in Fiscal
2025. This increase in revenue from sale of products was primarily on account of increase in revenue from

Other Income
Our other income decreased by 6.33% from ₹569.45 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹533.40 lakh in Fiscal 2025. Such
increase was primarily on account of Interest on Loans and Advances and Foreign exchange gain.
Cost of materials consumed
Our cost of materials consumed decreased by 7.80% from ₹74,278.29 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹68,482.95 lakh in
Fiscal 2025. Such decrease was primarily due to decrease in Stainless steel prices from Fiscal 2024 to Fiscal 2025.
Purchases of stock in trade
Our Purchases of stock in trade for the period ended March 31, 2025, was ₹5,949.48 lakh which was 6.35% of
our total income for the same period.
Change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress
Our Change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress was ₹(2,261.22) lakh as of Fiscal 2024, while
it was ₹ (934.41) lakh as of Fiscal 2025. This was predominantly due to an increase in inventory of finished goods,
work in progress and stock in trade at the end of the year.
Employee benefits expense
Our employee benefits expense increased by 8.52% from ₹2,144.81 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹2,327.6 lakh in Fiscal
2025, primarily on account of normal salary increases across various functions. This was predominantly due to
an increase in salary and wages and gratuity expenses. This was consequent to an increase in our number of
employees and growth in annual salaries.
408Finance costs
Our finance costs increased by 8.70% from ₹1,446.52 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹1,572.43 lakh in Fiscal 2025,
primarily due to increase in total debt from ₹7,975.74 lakh in Fiscal 2025 to ₹9,974.54 lakh in Fiscal 2025.

Fiscal 2025.
Other expenses
Our other expenses decreased by 7.97% from ₹10,877.95 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹10,011.15 lakh in Fiscal 2025.
The decrease was mainly driven by decrease in (a) Repairs Maintenance Charges for Plant & Machinery, (b)Store
Consumption, (c) Job Work Charges, (d) Commission Expense and (e) Travelling & Conveyance Expenses.
Profit before tax
We recorded an increase in our Profit before tax by 29.10% from ₹4,232.26 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹5,463.93 lakh
in Fiscal 2025.
Tax expenses
Our tax expenses increased by 38.29% from ₹1,069.36 lakh in Fiscal 2024 to ₹1,478.79 lakh in Fiscal 2025 and

FISCAL 2024 COMPARED WITH FISCAL 2023
Revenue from operations
Our revenue from operations decreased by 4.00% from ₹ 94,767.44 lakh in Fiscal 2023 to ₹ 90,980.80 lakh in
Fiscal 2024. The decline in revenue during Fiscal 2024 was primarily due to a combination of global
macroeconomic headwinds and sector-specific challenges. Nickel, a key raw material in stainless steel
production, witnessed a significant price correction during FY2024 due to oversupply concerns and increased
production from Indonesia and China. This directly impacted stainless steel pricing across global markets.
Sluggish demand in key export markets, coupled with volatility in raw material prices and adverse currency
movements, impacted the Company’s pricing power and order flow. On the domestic front, increased competition
from both organized and unorganized players exerted downward pressure on volumes and margins.
Revenue from Sale of products
Revenue from Sale of products decreased 4.84% from ₹ 94,419.79 lakh in Fiscal 2023 to ₹ 89,846.13 lakh in
Fiscal 2024. This decrease in revenue from sale of products was primarily on account of decrease in revenue from
Manufacturing of Billets, Flat bars and forging ingots. Revenue from trading of goods also reduced from ₹
2,810.72 lakh to ₹ 1,651.61 lakh.
Revenue from Sale of services
Revenue from Sale of services increased by 146.21% from ₹ 188.96 lakh in Fiscal 2023 to ₹ 465.23 lakh in in

work basis from 585.03 MT to 1841.27 MT in Fiscal 2024.
409Other Operating Revenue
Other operating income primarily comprises of revenues from Duty Drawback Received, Freight Charges
Recovered, Insurance Claimed Received and Other Operating income.
Other Income
Our other income increased by 88.80% from ₹ 301.62 lakh in Fiscal 2023 to ₹ 569.45 lakh in Fiscal 2024. Such
increase was primarily on account of Foreign exchange gain.
Cost of materials consumed
Our cost of materials consumed decreased by 0.77% from ₹74,854.55 lakh in Fiscal 2023 to ₹74,278.29 lakh in
Fiscal 2024, primarily as a result of decrease in revenues from sale of products. Such decrease was primarily due
to decrease in Stainless steel prices from Fiscal 2023 to Fiscal 2024.
Our COGS decreased by 7.55% to ₹72,017.07 lakhs in Fiscal 2024 from ₹77,895.50 lakhs in Fiscal 2023, which
was largely in line with the 4.00% decrease in revenue from operations during the same period. The decrease was
primarily due to the decrease in steel prices. Moreover, the company achieved a higher value of purchases through
imports rather than domestic scrap purchases as compared to FY23, leading to a reduction in raw material costs,
as imported scrap is comparatively cheaper and of better quality. This strategic procurement approach enhances
cost efficiency and contributes to improved margins.
Change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress
Our Change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress was ₹3040.95 lakh as of Fiscal 2023, while it
was ₹ (2261.22) lakh as of Fiscal 2024. This was predominantly due to an increase in inventory of finished goods,

Our employee benefits expense increased by 18.05% from ₹1816.94 lakh in Fiscal 2023 to ₹ 2144.81 lakh in
Fiscal 2024, primarily on account of normal salary increases across various functions. This was predominantly
due to an increase in salary and wages, gratuity expenses and bonus expenses. This was consequent to an increase
in our number of employees and growth in annual salaries.
Finance costs
Our finance costs increased by 27.20% from ₹1137.18 lakh in Fiscal 2023 to ₹ 1446.52 lakh in Fiscal 2024,

liquidity which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Group assesses the
unpredictability of the financial environment & seeks to mitigate potential adverse effects on the financial
performance of the Group.

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counter-party failure to repay or service debt according to the
contractual terms or obligations. Credit risk encompasses both, the direct risk of default and the risk of
deterioration of creditworthiness as well as concentration of risks. Credit risk is controlled by analysing credit
limits and creditworthiness of customers on a continuous basis to whom the credit has been granted after obtaining
necessary approvals for credit.
Financial instruments that are subject to concentration of credit risk principally consists of trade receivables,
investments, derivative financial instruments and other financial assets. None of the financial instruments of the
Group results in material concentration of credit risk.

Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obligations. The objective of liquidity
risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as per requirements.
The 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.
414Market Risk:
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market prices. Such changes in the values of financial instruments may result from changes in the
foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, credit, liquidity and other market changes. The Group’s exposure
to market risk is primarily on account of foreign currency exchange rate risk.
a) Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk :
We operate internationally and the major portion of our foreign business is transacted in USD. Our sales
and purchase is in foreign currency. Consequently, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk. Although
our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations is partly hedged through the exports of products and the
import of the necessary raw materials, we are still affected by fluctuations in exchange rates for certain
currencies, particularly the U.S. Dollar.

Act, 1944, against Rajputana Stainless Limited (“Respondent”) and Shankar Deepchand Mehta

favour of the Appellant as the Hon’ble Court may deem fit. The matter is currently pending, and the next

The Commissioner of Central GST & Central Excise, Vadodara – II (“Appellant”) has filed an appeal
bearing number F/323/2025 before the Hon’ble High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad (“Hon’ble Court”)
under Section 35G of the Central Excise Act, 1944, against Rajputana Stainless Limited (“Respondent

B. Litigation filed by our Company
1. Criminal proceedings
i. Rajputana Stainless Limited through Kaushal Pravinbhai Shah vs. State of Gujarat & Ors. -
R/Criminal Appeal (Against Acquittal) No. 887 of 2025
Rajputana Stainless Limited (the “Company”) had filed a criminal appeal (R/CRIMINAL APPEAL NO.
887 of 2025) before the Hon’ble High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad (“High Court”) against Shri
Rudra Technocast Pvt. Ltd., Manish R. Thumra, and Naresh R. Patel (“Respondents”). The appeal was
filed against an order of acquittal dated February 05, 2024, passed by the 19th Additional Chief Judicial
Magistrate, Vadodara.
The underlying dispute arose from the Respondents' failure to pay an outstanding amount of ₹4,28,794
for goods supplied by the Company. A cheque issued by the Respondents to settle this amount was
dishonoured upon presentation with the remark “Exceeds Arrangement.” Consequently, the Company
initiated proceedings under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, which resulted in the
aforementioned acquittal order. In its appeal before the High Court, the Company sought to quash the
acquittal and convict the Respondents.
In an order dated February 9, 2026, the High Court, without entering into the merits of the case, addressed
a preliminary jurisdictional issue. The High Court held that a complainant in a proceeding under Section
138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, is a "victim" and the statutory remedy available to a victim
against an order of acquittal is to file an appeal before the Sessions Court under the proviso to Section
372 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (equivalent to Section 413 of the Bharatiya Nagarik
Suraksha Sanhita, 2023).
Accordingly, the High Court disposed of the appeal and directed the Registry to transfer the entire case
record to the concerned Sessions Court. The matter will now be treated as an appeal under the appropriate
provision and heard afresh by the Sessions Court.
2. Material civil proceedings
i. Rajputana Stainless Limited vs Union of India, The Goods and Service Tax Council (GST Council) &
Ors. – Special Civil Application No. 10476 of 2023
Rajputana Stainless Limited (“Petitioner”) has filed a writ petition bearing Special Civil Application no
10476 of 2023, before the Hon’ble High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad, under Article 226 of the
Constitution of India, against Union of India (“Respondent 1”), The Goods and Service Tax Council
(GST Council) (“Respondent 2”) and others (collectively referred to as “Respondents”) challenging the
constitutional validity of section 16 (2) (c) of the Gujarat Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017. Respondent
2 had issued summons against the Petitioner dated January 05, 2022, under section 70(1) of the Central
Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and Gujarat Goods and Services tax Act, 2017, directing the petitioner
to be present before Respondent 2 authorities. Despite being present before the respondent authorities
and furnishing all requisite documents, the Respondents pressurized the Petitioner to pay an amount of
₹ 25,00,000 through form no. GST DRC-03 on February 23, 2022. Thereafter, the business premises of
the Petitioner was once again searched by the officials of the Director General of GST Intelligence
(DGGI) on February 25, 2022, and yet again the Petitioner was served with another summons wherein
the Petitioner was directed to be present before the Respondent authorities. Though the Respondent
authorities were unable to find any dubious transactions, the Petitioner was once again pressurized to
make payment of ₹ 25,00,000 through form no. GST DRC-03 on May 12, 2022, for invalid reasons.
Hence aggrieved by this the present petition was filed, and the Petitioner prays before the Hon’ble Court
to issue a writ of mandamus or any order or direction holding and declaring section 16(2) (c) of the
Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and Section 16 (2) (c) of the Central Goods and Services Act,
2017 to be unconstitutional and against the scheme of the act, if the same has been upheld, to hold/declare
that ITC can be denied only if buyer of goods and services has colluded with the supplier of good and
420services to defraud the revenue and where purchases are in the nature of sham transactions. Further to
pass any such order/relief in favor of the petitioner. The matter is currently pending, and the next date of
hearing is July 9, 2026.

428RESTRICTIONS 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 has prescribed the limits and the conditions subject to which foreign investment
can be made in different sectors of the Indian economy, FEMA regulates the precise manner in which such
investment may be made. Under the Industrial Policy, unless specifically restricted, foreign investment is freely
permitted in all sectors of the Indian economy up to any extent and without any prior approvals, but the foreign
investor is required to follow certain prescribed procedures for making such investment. The RBI and the
concerned ministries/departments are responsible for granting approval for foreign investment. The Government
of India has from time to time made policy pronouncements on foreign direct investment ("FDI") through press
notes and press releases.
The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, GoI, earlier
known as Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion ("DPIIT") has issued the Consolidated FDI Policy
Circular of 2020 ("FDI Policy") by way of circular bearing number DPIIT file number 5(2)/2020-FDI Policy
dated October 15, 2020, with effect from October 15, 2020, which consolidates and supersedes all previous press
notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by DPIIT that were in force and effect as on October 15,
2020. The FDI Policy will be valid until the DPIIT issues an updated circular. Foreign investment of up to 100%
is currently permitted under the automatic route for our Company.
The 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 as per the FDI Policy
and transfer does not attract the provisions of the SEBI Takeover Regulations; (ii) the non-resident shareholding
is within the sectoral limits provided under the FDI Policy; and (iii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines
prescribed by the SEBI/RBI.
Further, in accordance with Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April 17, 2020 issued by the DPIIT and the
Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) Amendment Rules, 2020 which came into effect from
April 22, 2020, any investment, subscription, purchase or sale of equity instruments 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 ("Restricted Investors"), will require prior approval of the Government, as prescribed in the
Consolidated FDI Policy and the FEMA Rules.
Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future FDI 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. Furthermore, on April 22, 2020,
the Ministry of Finance, Government of India, has also made a similar amendment to the FEMA Rules. Each
Applicant should seek independent legal advice about its ability to participate in the Offer. In the event such prior
approval of the Government of India is required, and such approval has been obtained, the Applicant shall intimate
our Company and the Registrar to the Offer in writing about such approval along with a copy thereof within the
Offer Period.
For details of the aggregate limit for investments by NRIs and FPIs in our Company. see "Offer Procedure - Bids
by Eligible NRIs" and "Offer Procedure — Bids by FPIs" on pages 461 and 461, respectively. As per the existing
policy of the Government of India, OCBs cannot participate in this Offer.

Phased implementation of Unified Payments Interface
SEBI has issued the UPI Circulars in relation to streamlining the process of public issue of inter alia, equity shares
and convertibles by introducing an alternate payment mechanism using UPI. 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 RIIs through
intermediaries with the objective to reduce the time duration from public issue closure to listing from six Working
Days to up to three Working Days. Considering the time required for making necessary changes to the systems
and to ensure complete and smooth transition to the UPI payment mechanism, the UPI Circulars have introduced
the UPI Mechanism in three phases in the following manner:
Phase I: This phase was applicable from January 1, 2019, until March 31, 2019, or floating of five main board
public issues, whichever was later. Subsequently, the timeline for implementation of Phase I was extended till
June 30, 2019. Under this phase, an RIB had the option to submit the ASBA Form with any of the Designated
Intermediary and use his/ her UPI ID for the purpose of blocking of funds. The time duration from public issue
closure to listing continued to be six Working Days.
Phase II: This phase has become applicable from July 1, 2019, and was to initially continue for a period of three
months or floating of five main board public issues, whichever is later. SEBI vide its circular no.
SEBI/HO/CFD/DCR2/CIR/P/2019/133 dated November 8, 2019, had extended the timeline for implementation
of UPI Phase II till March 31, 2020. Under this phase, submission of the ASBA Form by RIBs through Designated
Intermediaries (other than SCSBs) to SCSBs for blocking of funds will be discontinued and will be replaced by
the UPI Mechanism. However, the time duration from public issue closure to listing continued to be six Working
Days during this phase. Further, SEBI vide its circular no. SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL2/CIR/P/2020 dated March 30,
2020, decided to continue Phase II of UPI with ASBA until further notice.
Phase III: This phase has become applicable on a voluntary basis for all issues opening on or after September 1,
2023, and on a mandatory basis for all issues opening on or after December 1, 2023, vide SEBI circular bearing
number SEBI/HO/CFD/TPD1/CIR/P/2023/140 dated August 9, 2023. In this phase, the time duration from public
issue closure to listing has been reduced to three Working Days. The Offer shall be undertaken pursuant to the
processes and procedures as notified in the SEBI circular bearing number SEBI/HO/CFD/TPD1/CIR/P/2023/140
dated August 9, 2023 as applicable, subject to any circulars, clarification or notification issued by the SEBI from
time to time, including any circular, clarification or notification which may be issued by SEBI. Pursuant to the
UPI Circulars, 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 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 finalised. Failure to unblock the
accounts within the timeline would result in the SCSBs being penalised under the relevant securities law.
Additionally, if there is any delay in the redressal of investors’ complaints, the relevant SCSB as well as the post
– Offer BRLM will be required to compensate the concerned investor.
The Offer will be made under UPI Phase III of the UPI Circular.
All SCSBs offering the facility of making applications in public offers were required to provide the facility to
make application using UPI. Our Company had appointed one of the SCSBs as a Sponsor Bank to act as a conduit
between the Stock Exchanges and NPCI in order to facilitate collection of requests and/ or payment instructions
