to a “year” in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus are to a calendar year.
The degree to which the financial information included in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus will provide
meaningful information is entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Indian accounting policies
and practices, Ind AS, the Companies Act and SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not familiar with
the aforementioned policies and laws on the financial disclosures presented in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus
should be limited. There are significant differences between Ind AS, Indian GAAP, U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Our
Company does not provide a reconciliation of its financial statements with Indian GAAP, IFRS or U.S. GAAP
requirements. Our Company has not attempted to explain those differences or quantify their impact on the

regarding such differences and their impact on our financial data. For further details in connection with risks
involving differences between Ind AS and other accounting principles, kindly refer “Risk Factor No. 55:

(i) the sum or percentage change of such numbers may not conform exactly to the total figure given; and (ii) the
sum of the numbers in a column or row in certain tables may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that
column or row.
Further, any figures sourced from third-party industry sources may be rounded off to other than two decimal points
to conform to their respective sources.
Non-GAAP Measures
Certain Non-GAAP Measures and certain other statistical information relating to our operations and financial

Profit Margin, PAT Margin, CAGR, Net Asset Value per Equity Share, Return on Net worth, Return on equity,
Net worth, EBIT, Capital Employed, Return on Capital Employed and others (“Non-GAAP Measures”), have
been included in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. We compute and disclose such Non-GAAP Measures and
such other statistical information relating to our operations and financial performance as we consider such
information to be useful measures of our business and financial performance. These Non-GAAP Measures are a
supplemental measure of our performance and liquidity that is not required by, or presented in accordance with,
Ind AS, Indian GAAP, IFRS or US GAAP. Further, these Non-GAAP Measures are not a measurement of our
financial performance or liquidity under Ind AS, Indian GAAP, IFRS or US GAAP and should not be considered
in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash flows, profit/ (loss) for the years/ period or any other measure
of financial performance or as an indicator 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 Measures are not standardised terms, hence a direct comparison of
these non-GAAP Measures between companies may not be possible. Other companies may calculate these Non-
GAAP Measures differently from us, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Although such Non-GAAP
Measures are not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with applicable accounting standards.
Non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as
an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented
in accordance with Ind AS. Non-GAAP financial information may be different from similarly titled Non-GAAP
measures used by other companies. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they
exclude significant expenses and income that are required by Ind AS to be recorded in our financial statements,
as further detailed below. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of
judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-
GAAP financial measures. Investors are encouraged to review the related Ind AS financial measures and the
reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable Ind AS financial measures
included below and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Industry and Market Data
Unless stated otherwise, industry and market data used in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus is derived from the
CRISIL Report, prepared by CRISIL appointed by our Company pursuant to an engagement letter dated November
05, 2025 and such Report has been commissioned by our Company for an agreed fee, exclusively in connection
with the Offer for the purpose of understanding the industry in connection with this Offer, since no report is
publicly available which provides a comprehensive industry analysis, particularly for our Company’s services, that
may be similar to the CRISIL Report.
Industry publications generally state that the information contained in such publications has been obtained from
publicly available documents from various sources believed to be reliable but accuracy, completeness and
underlying assumptions of such third-party sources are not guaranteed. Industry sources and publications may base
their information on estimates and assumptions that may prove to be incorrect. The data used in these sources may
have been re-classified for the purposes of presentation. There are no parts, data or information of the CRISIL
Report which may be relevant for the Offer, that have been left out or changed in any manner. Data from these
sources may also not be comparable. Industry sources and publications are also prepared based on information as
of specific dates and may no longer be current or reflect current trends. Such data involves risks, uncertainties and
numerous assumptions and is subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factor
No. 33– This Draft Red Herring Prospectus contains information from third parties including an industry report
prepared by an independent third-party research agency, CRISIL, which we have commissioned and paid for to
confirm our understanding of our industry exclusively in connection with the Offer and reliance on such
information for making an investment decision in the Offer is subject to inherent risks” beginning on page 68.
Accordingly, investment decisions should not be based solely on such information.
The extent to which the market and industry data used in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus is meaningful depends
on the reader’s familiarity with and understanding of the methodologies used in compiling such data. There are no
standard data gathering methodologies in the industry in which business of our Company is conducted, and
methodologies and assumptions may vary widely amongst different industry sources. Accordingly, no investment
23decision should be made solely on the basis of such information.
The CRISIL Report is also available at our Company’s website at www.rodec.in
In accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations, the section “Basis for Offer Price” beginning on page 129
includes information relating to our peer group companies, which has been derived from publicly available
sources, and accordingly, no investment decision should be made solely on the basis of such information.

expected financial condition and results of operations, business, plans and prospects are forward looking
statements, which may include statements with respect to our business strategy, our revenue and profitability, our

“likely to”, “objective”, “plan”, “projected”, “should” “will”, “will continue”, “seek to”, “will pursue” or other

made by us or any third parties in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus are based on our current plans, estimates,
presumptions and expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the relevant forward-looking statement.
Actual results may differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements due to risks or
uncertainties associated with the expectations with respect to, but not limited to, regulatory changes pertaining to
the industry in which our Company has businesses and our ability to respond to them, our ability to successfully
implement our strategy, our growth and expansion, technological changes, our exposure to market risks, general
economic and political conditions in India and globally which have an impact on our business activities or
investments, the monetary and fiscal policies of India, inflation, deflation, unanticipated turbulence in interest
rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices or other rates or prices, the performance of the financial markets in
India and globally, incidence of any natural calamities and/or acts of violence, changes in laws, regulations and
taxes and changes in competition in our industry.
Certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, but are
not limited to, the following:
• Reduction in demand for our products;
• Any manufacturing or quality control failures of animal feed supplements;
• Inability to handle risks associated with the business operations;
• Reliability on single manufacturing unit situated at Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh.
• Loss of relationship with our key third party manufacturers;
• Loss of relationship with our key consignee agents & stockists;
• Any failure to maintain, promote or protect our brand image, which is critical to our business, may adversely

Factors”, “Our Business”, “Industry Overview”, and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Conditions and Results of Operations” beginning on pages 41, 178, 148 and 353, respectively. By their nature,
certain market risk disclosures are only estimates and could be materially different from what actually occurs in
the future.
We cannot assure Bidders that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements will prove to be
correct. Given these uncertainties, Bidders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking
statements and not to regard such statements as a guarantee of our future performance.
Neither our Company, our Promoters, Directors, nor the BRLM, or any of their respective affiliates, if any, have
any obligation to update or otherwise revise any statements reflecting circumstances arising after the date hereof
or to reflect the occurrence of underlying events, even if the underlying assumptions do not come to fruition.

31RISK FACTORS
Specific attention of the investors is invited to the section “Risk Factors” beginning on page 41 to have an informed
view before making an investment decision. Bidders are advised to read the risk factors carefully before taking an
investment decision in the Offer. Set forth below are the top 10 risk factors applicable to our Company:
Sr. No. Description of Risk
Our business is substantially dependent on a limited number of third-party manufacturers for the
manufacture of our veterinary pharmaceutical drug products, and any disruption, termination or
1
adverse developments affecting such manufacturers may adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We generated significant portion of our revenues from operations only from two segments i.e.
Veterinary Pharmaceutical Drugs and Animal Feed Supplements, in the period ended September
2 30, 2025, and Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Any adverse developments affecting these
segments may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash
flows.
We have a limited manufacturing history which may make it difficult for investors to assess our
3
future growth prospects and business.
Concentration of our revenues in the state of Uttar Pradesh exposes us to state-specific risks that
4
could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Delay in obtaining consent to operate from the Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board may result
5
in regulatory penalties.
We derive a significant portion of our revenue from certain key customers. Any reduction in
6 business from such customers, or termination of arrangements or formal arrangements, may
adversely affect our business, cash flow, financial condition and results of operations.
We rely on our Veterinary Sales Representatives (“VSR”), Consignee Agents and Stockists for the
7
sale and distribution of our products.
Any delay, interruption or reduction in the supply of our raw materials for manufacturing activities
from raw material suppliers or finished products from our third-party manufacturers, or an increase
8 in the costs of such raw materials and finished products, may adversely impact the pricing and
supply of our products and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows
and results of operations.
Our past performance may not be indicative of our future growth. Our inability to successfully
9 implement our business plan, expansion and growth strategies could have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Our manufacturing operations are concentrated at one facility located at Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh,
10 which exposes business to geographical concentration risks arising from local and regional factors
that may adversely affect operations, business performance, results of operations and cash flows.

41INTERNAL RISK FACTORS
Risks relating to our Business and Industry
1. Our business is substantially dependent on a limited number of third-party manufacturers for the manufacture
of our veterinary pharmaceutical drug products, and any disruption, termination or adverse developments
affecting such manufacturers may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows.
Our Company derives its revenue from two business segments, namely animal feed supplements and veterinary
pharmaceutical drugs. As on the date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, we manufacture animal feed
supplements in-house, while veterinary pharmaceutical drugs are manufactured by third-party manufacturers and
marketed and sold by us under our own brand name. For further details with respect to the products, kindly refer
“Our Products” beginning on page 188.
Set out below are the details of the contribution of third-party manufactured products, namely Veterinary
Pharmaceutical Drugs and Animal Feed Supplements, to our revenue from operations for the period and the
financial years indicated.

*% of Revenue from operations.
Although we are having a long-term agreement with our all third-party manufacturers for veterinary
pharmaceutical drugs ranging between 2 to 5 years but our reliance on third party manufacturers exposes us to
risks such as:
✓ We may not be able to obtain adequate supply of the products from the manufacturers on a timely and cost-
effective basis, due to factors such as production disruptions, quality issues, regulatory actions, contractual
disputes, price fluctuations, competition, availability of raw materials or transportation delays;
✓ We may not be able to maintain our arrangements with the manufacturers on favourable terms, or at all;
✓ We may face legal, regulatory, reputational or financial risks arising from any non-compliance, breach or
other adverse events affecting the products, the manufacturers or their suppliers;
✓ We may not be able to exercise adequate control or oversight over the quality, storage or distribution of the
products, the manufacturers or their suppliers.
Any of these risks, individually or in combination, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
Additionally, there can be no assurance that our business arising from arrangements with third-party manufacturers
will not be adversely affected in the future due to heightened competition, pricing pressures or variations in market
demand or supply. Also, the development or introduction of alternative or substitute products may reduce demand
for our products. Our ability to introduce new products is largely dependent on the technical capabilities,
42regulatory compliance and commercial competence of our third-party manufacturers. If such third-party
manufacturers are unable or unwilling to develop, manufacture or scale new products in a timely manner, or at
all, we may be unable to respond effectively to changing market requirements, which could adversely affect our
business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The table below sets out the purchases of third party manufactured products i.e. veterinary pharmaceutical drugs
and animal feed supplements from largest third-party manufacturer, our top five third-party manufacturers and
our top ten third-party manufacturers, for the period ended September 30, 2025, and Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and

We have experienced termination of agreement with two manufacturers for veterinary pharmaceutical drugs in
past three years, we cannot assure that we will not experience same in future for any reason, or if our relationships
with any of such third-party manufacturers are disrupted in the future, our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows will not be adversely affected.
2. We generated significant portion of our revenues from operations only from two segments i.e. Veterinary
Pharmaceutical Drugs and Animal Feed Supplements, in the period ended September 30, 2025 and Fiscals
2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Any adverse developments affecting these segments may adversely affect our
business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.
We derive our revenues from two business segments, namely veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed
supplements. These segments encompass a wide range of products, for further details with respect to the products,
kindly refer “Our Products” beginning on page 188.
The following table sets forth details of our revenues from these two segments for the period / financial years
indicated:

43Factors that could negatively affect the sale of our products in these segments include regulatory changes in
veterinary pharmaceutical industry, increased market competition, supply chain disruptions, economic downturns,
and rapid technological advancements. Regulatory changes such as stricter regulations on product safety,
labelling, and marketing practices, could increase our compliance costs or restrict our ability to market and sell
our products. Increased competition in domestic market, which may have greater financial, technical, and
marketing resources could lead to pricing pressures, reduce our market share and lower our profit margins. Supply
chain disruptions, whether due to geopolitical tensions, natural disasters, or other unforeseen events, could affect
our ability to manufacture and deliver products on time, leading to potential revenue losses. While we have not
experienced instances of disruptions in our supply chain since December 29, 2022 till as on the date of this Draft
Red Herring Prospectus, which had a material impact on our operations, we cannot assure you that such
disruptions will not occur in the future.
3. We have a limited manufacturing history which may make it difficult for investors to assess our future growth
prospects and business.
We have started our manufacturing facility on December 29, 2022, for manufacturing of animal feed supplements
at Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. We may be unable to understand the nuances of the industry given our short animal
feed supplements manufacturing history, demand and supply trends and customer trends. In the event we fail to
understand the animal feed supplements market operations and risks in connection with such operations, it may
have an adverse impact on our business, prospects, financial conditions and results of operations. Further, due to
our limited manufacturing history, investors may not be able to evaluate our business, future prospects and
viability. For details, kindly refer “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results
of Operations” beginning on page 353.
The following table sets forth details of our revenue from manufacturing of animal feed supplements for the period
/ financial years indicated:

#Revenue indicates for the period from December 29, 2022 to March 31, 2023, as we have started manufacturing
since December 29, 2022.
4. Concentration of our revenues in the state of Uttar Pradesh exposes us to state-specific risks that could
adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Revenue concentration in the state of Uttar Pradesh, which accounted for 37.77%, 38.74%, 39.19% and 45.22%
of our revenue from operations for the period ended September 30, 2025 and for the Fiscals 2025, 2024 and 2023
respectively exposes business to state-specific risks that may affect sales and results of operations. As on
September 30, 2025, our Company generated revenue from 369 Stockists and 1 Consignee Agent located in Uttar
Pradesh while revenue from other states of India is generated through Consignee Agents & Stockists and
accordingly, any adverse developments in Uttar Pradesh may result in decline in sales volumes and revenue. Uttar
Pradesh has the largest livestock population in India (Source: CRISIL report dated December, 2025) and the
demand for veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed supplements in the state is directly linked to the size
and health of this livestock population. Any decrease in livestock population due to disease outbreaks, epidemics,
mass culling programs, or changes in animal husbandry practices may significantly reduce demand for our
products and adversely affect our revenue from the state of Uttar Pradesh.

The above data has been certified through certificate dated January 10, 2026, by statutory auditor, Rishi Kapoor
& Company, Chartered Accountants vide UDIN 26075483KVDQYN3564.
The veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed supplement market in the state depends on livestock and
dairy farming activities, and any changes in government policies affecting animal health programs, shifts in
livestock rearing patterns, or decline in dairy farming may reduce demand for products. Any economic slowdown,
reduction in farmer incomes, or decline in agricultural activities in the state may affect purchasing power of
customers and result in lower sales. Our Company faces risk of loss of customers in Uttar Pradesh due to increased
competition from other veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed supplements companies operating in the
state or entry of new competitors offering products at lower prices. Any disruption in relationship with Consignee
Agents, Stockists and Veterinary Sales Representatives, termination of distribution agreement with Consignee
Agents, may result in loss of market access and revenue decline.
Political instability, civil unrest, or public disruptions in Uttar Pradesh may affect business operations of
customers, restrict movement of sales personnel, or create uncertainty that leads customers to defer purchases or
reduce order quantities. Any law and order issues, protests, or social unrest in the state may also affect ability to
service customers, conduct promotional activities, or maintain market presence, resulting in loss of customers to
competitors who maintain better market access during such periods. The concentration of revenue in one state
limits geographical diversification and increases vulnerability to regional factors that may not affect operations in
other states.
455. Delay in obtaining consent to operate from the Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board may result in regulatory
penalties.
For our manufacturing unit located at Ghaziabad, our Company obtained the Consent to Establish from the Uttar
Pradesh Pollution Control Board (“UPPCB”) on July 03, 2021. Our Company commenced manufacturing
operations on December 29, 2022, prior to obtaining the requisite Consent to Operate under applicable
environmental laws and regulations. The application for Consent to Operate was made on September 10, 2024,
however without imposing any penalty on account of delay, the Consent to Operate was subsequently granted by
the UPPCB on September 30, 2024, resulting in a gap of approximately two years between the commencement of
operations and receipt of the Consent to Operate. Under applicable environmental laws and regulations, an
industrial unit is required to obtain the Consent to Operate prior to commencing operations. Accordingly, the
commencement of operations by our Company without obtaining the Consent to Operate constituted a non-
compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations.
While no regulatory action has been initiated against our Company to date, the UPPCB may initiate regulatory
action in respect of such non-compliance, including the imposition of penalties, fines or other remedial measures.
Any such regulatory action, penalty or adverse order could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, results of operations and reputation.
6. We derive a significant portion of our revenue from certain key customers. Any reduction in business from
such customers, or termination of arrangements or formal arrangements, may adversely affect our business,
cash flow, financial condition and results of operations.
A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a limited number of key customers with whom we have
entered into agreements or have formal arrangements. While such agreements govern certain commercial terms
of our relationship, they are generally for limited durations and may be subject to termination, non-renewal,
modification or renegotiation, or may not guarantee minimum purchase commitments.
The table below sets forth contributions to our revenue from operations by our largest customer, top 5 customers
and top 10 customers for the period ended September 30, 2025, and Financial Year ended on March 31, 2025,

There can be no assurance that these customers will continue to place orders with us at the same levels, or at all,
in the future. The loss of, or reduction in orders from, any of these customers, whether due to competition, pricing
pressures, changes in their business requirements, financial difficulties, or any other reason, could result in a
reduction in our revenue and profitability.
46We cannot assure you that we will be able to retain our existing customer relationships, expand our customer base,
or reduce our dependence on a limited number of customers in the future. Any failure to do so could have an
adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
7. We rely on our Veterinary Sales Representatives (“VSR”), Consignee Agents and Stockists for the sale and
distribution of our products.
Our business model depends significantly on our network of VSR, Consignee Agents, and Stockists for marketing
and distributing our veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed supplements products across various
geographic markets. VSR, who are on our rolls, play a crucial role in promoting our products to veterinarians,
livestock farmers and dairy farmers, providing technical information, demonstrating product benefits, and
generating sales leads. Our Consignee Agents and Stockists serve as key intermediaries in our supply chain,
maintaining inventory, extending credit to customers, providing last-mile delivery and ensuring product
availability in local markets, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas where direct reach is challenging.
We do not have formal arrangements with our Stockists and they may also carry competing products from other
manufacturers, potentially prioritizing products offering higher margins, better incentives, or stronger brand
recognition. However, we have long-term agreements in place with our Consignee Agents, generally ranging from
two to five years.
Following are the details of VSR, Consignee Agents and Stockists for the period ended September 30, 2025 and

Kapoor & Company vide UDIN 26075483KVDQYN3564.
The loss of Consignee Agents, Stockists, or VSR could disrupt our sales and distribution network, result in loss
of market coverage, and adversely impact our revenues until suitable replacements are identified and relationships
established. Our inability to attract, retain, and motivate qualified VSR through competitive compensation,
training, and career advancement opportunities could weaken our sales effectiveness and customer engagement.
Consignee Agents and Stockists may face financial difficulties, liquidity constraints, or business failures,
47outstanding receivables, inventory losses, or sudden termination of business relationships. We have limited control
over the business practices, promotional activities, and customer interactions of our VSR, Consignee Agents and
Stockists, and any unethical conduct, misrepresentation, sale of counterfeit products, or poor service by them
could damage our reputation even though such actions are beyond our direct control.
Additionally, managing a geographically dispersed network of VSR, Consignee Agents, and Stockists involves
significant costs including sales force salaries, travel expenses, training programs, promotional materials, credit
risk management, and relationship maintenance efforts. Changes in distribution economics, margin expectations,
or market dynamics could make our distribution model less attractive to distribution partners or require us to
increase incentives and trade margins, thereby compressing our profitability.
Any disruption in our sales and distribution network, deterioration in relationships with our consignee agents and
stockists, or ineffective performance of our VSR could adversely affect our market reach, sales volumes, customer
service levels, competitive position and overall business performance.
We have not experienced any disruption in our sales due to lack of any Consignee Agents or VSR or Stockists and
there is no assurance that in future we will not experience such instances.
8. Any delay, interruption or reduction in the supply of our raw materials for manufacturing activities from raw
material suppliers or finished products from our third-party manufacturers, or an increase in the costs of such
raw materials and finished products, may adversely impact the pricing and supply of our products and have an
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
We are dependent on third-party manufacturers for veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and on external sources for
raw materials used in manufacturing animal feed supplements, which exposes us to various risks beyond our
control. Our veterinary pharmaceutical drugs business relies entirely on procurement from third-party
manufacturers, and any disruption in their supply due to regulatory issues on the part of third-party manufacturers,
quality control failures, manufacturing delays, license cancellations of our third-party manufacturers, or their
inability to meet our demand could result in product shortages and lost sales opportunities.

For our animal feed supplements manufacturing operations, we source key raw materials including feed
ingredients, additives, and nutritional supplements from multiple suppliers, and any disruption in the availability
of these materials due to transportation issues could adversely impact our production capacity.
We procure raw materials for manufacturing animal feed supplements from domestic suppliers only. We do not
have any agreement with any of our raw material suppliers, and the loss of any significant supplier or our inability
to find suitable alternatives in a timely manner could disrupt our operations. We generally select the suppliers on
the basis of competitive edge and economic rates.

The prices of our finished goods outsourced from third party manufactures i.e. veterinary pharmaceutical drugs,
animal feed supplements and raw material procured for the manufacturing of animal feed supplements are subject
to significant volatility due to regulatory changes and general market conditions, and we may not be able to pass
on increased costs to our customers, which could compress our margins and reduce profitability. Additionally, for
certain specialized veterinary pharmaceutical drugs or animal feed supplements ingredients, alternative sources
may be limited or unavailable, making us particularly vulnerable to supply disruptions. Any quality issues,
contamination, or regulatory non-compliance by our suppliers of raw material for animal feed supplements and
finished goods outsourced from third party manufactures could also result in product recalls, reputational damage,
and customer attrition. Our inability to maintain adequate inventory levels due to supply chain disruptions could
result in unfulfilled customer orders, contractual penalties, and loss of market share to competitors.
49Furthermore, holding excess inventory to mitigate supply risks could tie up working capital and expose us to
obsolescence risks, particularly for animal feed supplements with limited shelf life. Given our dual dependence
on third-party manufacturers for veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and raw materials for animal feed supplements
manufacturing, any significant disruption in our supply chain or material increase in procurement costs could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditions, cash flows, and results of operations.
9. Our past performance may not be indicative of our future growth. Our inability to successfully implement our
business plan, expansion and growth strategies could have an adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Our revenue from operations has increased at a CAGR of 21.89% from ₹ 716.13 million in Fiscal 2023 to ₹
1,063.93 million in Fiscal 2025, and our revenue from operations was ₹ 627.27 million for the period ended
September 30, 2025.
The table below sets forth details of our revenue from operations and profit for the period/financial years indicated:

Our future success depends on our ability to effectively execute our business plan and growth strategies, which
include expanding our product portfolio in veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed supplements
segments, increasing manufacturing capacity, entering new geographical markets, strengthening distribution
networks, enhancing brand presence, and improving operational efficiencies. The successful implementation of
these strategies requires significant capital investment, management attention, operational expertise, and
favourable market conditions, none of which can be assured.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to sustain or effectively manage this growth going forward. The
development of future business could be adversely affected by many factors, including our ability to identify
market opportunities and demands in the industry, introduce new products, compete with existing companies in
our markets, consistently exercise effective quality control, hire and train qualified personnel, general political
and economic conditions in India, government policies or strategies in respect of specific industries, prevailing
interest rates, and labour costs, among others. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, we may not be
able to take advantage of market opportunities, execute our business strategies successfully or respond to
competitive pressures. Additional difficulties in executing our growth strategy, particularly in new geographical
locations, managing local operational, capital investment or sourcing regulatory requirements; managing
fluctuations in the economy and financial markets, as well as credit risks; and managing possible unfavourable
labour conditions or employee strikes. We cannot assure you that our growth and expansion strategy will continue
to be successful or will continue to grow at historical rates or that we will be able to execute our business plans
efficiently in a cost-effective manner.
10. Our manufacturing operations are concentrated at one facility located at Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, which
exposes business to geographical concentration risks arising from local and regional factors that may adversely
affect operations, business performance, results of operations and cash flows.
Our manufacturing operations are concentrated at one facility located in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh which exposes
business to geographical concentration risks arising from local & regional factors and operations may be affected
by political instability, civil unrest, protests, strikes, or public disruptions in the state that may adversely affect
operations, business performance, results of operations and cash flows. The facility handles production of animal
50feed supplements across multiple formulations including boluses, liquids (Suspension/ Syrup) and powders. Any
disruption at this facility due to fire, natural disasters, equipment breakdown, power failure, labour disputes, or
regulatory actions may result in complete halt of manufacturing operations. Our Company does not have alternate
manufacturing facility or backup production arrangements, and any extended shutdown may result in inability to
supply products to customers, loss of market share, and breach of supply commitments. Any law & order situation,
communal tensions, electoral disturbances, or social unrest in the region may restrict movement of employees,
raw materials, or finished goods, resulting in production stoppages or supply chain disruptions. Our Company
depends on road transportation network in the state for procurement of raw materials and distribution of products,
and any blockades, bandhs, or restrictions on transportation may affect operations. Political changes, policy shifts,
or administrative actions by state government may also result in changes in regulatory environment, taxation, or
industrial incentives that affect business viability at the location.
The facility is subject to risks specific to its geographical location including water scarcity, power supply
disruptions, transportation network limitations, and local regulatory actions by state authorities. Any changes in
local infrastructure, industrial policies, environmental regulations, or zoning laws applicable to the area may affect
operations or require relocation of the facility. Our Company depends on availability of utilities including
electricity, water, and gas at the facility location, and any shortage or price increase in utilities may increase
production costs or cause production delays. The facility also faces risks from industrial accidents, environmental
incidents, or public health emergencies in the surrounding area that may result in mandatory closure or restrictions
on operations.
While our Company has not experienced any instance in the past, there can be no assurance that such
circumstances will not arise in the future, which could adversely affect our operations and financial results.
11. Our Company does not undertake in-house research and development activities, which may adversely
affect our competitiveness and long-term growth prospects.
Our Company does not undertake in-house research and development activities, which may adversely affect our
competitiveness and long-term growth prospects. Our business primarily involves manufacturing of animal feed
supplements and trading of veterinary pharmaceutical drugs that are manufactured by third-party manufacturers
based on established and tested formulations.
The veterinary pharmaceutical industry is characterized by rapid technological advancements, evolving regulatory
requirements and changing customer preferences. Continuous R&D efforts are often essential to develop new
products, enhance efficacy, improve delivery mechanisms and respond to emerging diseases and market trends.
The absence of in-house R&D capabilities may limit our ability to introduce innovative products, adapt to changes
in market demand, or respond effectively to competition from companies with strong R&D infrastructure.
Any inability to enhance our product offerings, diversify our portfolio or keep pace with industry developments
due to the lack of R&D activities may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results
of operations and cash flows.
12. The availability of counterfeit veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed supplements (“products”),
passed off by others as our products, could adversely affect our goodwill and results of operations.
The veterinary pharmaceutical industry is susceptible to counterfeiting, and we face the risk of counterfeit drugs
manufactured by our third-party manufacturers and animal feed supplements being manufactured by us,
distributed, and sold in the market under our brand names or passed off as our genuine products. Counterfeit
veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed supplements may contain incorrect ingredients, insufficient or
excessive active pharmaceutical ingredients, harmful substances, or no active ingredients at all, posing serious
health risks to animals and potentially leading to treatment failures, adverse reactions, or even animal fatalities.
When counterfeit products bearing our brand or resembling our products cause harm or fail to deliver expected
51therapeutic outcomes, customers, veterinarians, and farmers may attribute these failures to our genuine products,
resulting in significant damage to our brand reputation, loss of customer trust, and erosion of goodwill built over
years of operations.
The presence of counterfeit products in the market also directly impacts our sales and revenues, as customers may
unknowingly purchase these spurious products instead of our genuine offerings, particularly if counterfeit
products are sold at lower prices through unauthorized supplements. We may incur substantial costs in
implementing anti-counterfeiting measures such as security features, holograms, track-and-trace systems,
authentication technologies, supply chain monitoring, and customer awareness programs, without guarantee of
complete protection.
Additionally, identifying, investigating, and taking legal action against counterfeiters involves significant time,
resources, and enforcement challenges, particularly when counterfeit operations are conducted through
unorganized distribution networks, rural markets, online platforms, or across multiple jurisdictions with varying
levels of regulatory oversight and intellectual property protection. Regulatory authorities may also impose
penalties, suspend licenses of our third-party manufacturers, or take adverse action against us if counterfeit
products are mistakenly attributed to our Company, even if we are not responsible for their manufacture or
distribution. Furthermore, adverse publicity arising from counterfeit product incidents, even if clarified later,
could have lasting negative effects on our market position and customer relationships. If we are unable to
effectively combat counterfeiting or protect our brand integrity, our reputation, customer loyalty, market share,
and financial performance could be materially and adversely affected.
While our Company has not experienced any instance in the past, there can be no assurance that such
circumstances will not arise in the future, which could adversely affect our operations and financial results.
13. Our Company has experienced certain instances of non-compliance in the prior years & delayed filings under
Companies Act. There can be no assurance that such non-compliances or delay filings will not occur in the
future or that our Company will not be subject to penalties or other actions by the relevant regulatory
authorities in this regard, which could adversely affect its financial condition and reputation.
There have been following instances wherein the disclosures made in statutory filings done under Companies Act,
1956/2013 are incomplete or erroneous in nature, which are mention below:
1. Form 2 for return of allotment dated March 31, 2005 in the Financial Year 2004-05 is not traceable by our

Mr. Om Prakash Gupta and Mr. Mukesh Kumar Gupta has been erroneously disclosed as 1,500 and 2,300
equity shares, respectively. However, the correct shareholding of Mr. Om Prakash Gupta and Mr. Mukesh
Kumar Gupta for the said period was 3,500 and 300 equity shares, respectively. Consequently, the Annual
Return for the relevant financial year does not accurately reflect the shareholding pattern of our Company as
on the relevant date i.e. September 30, 2002.
3. Our Company does not have the original Form 20B (Annual Return) filed with the Registrar of Companies
for the financial year ended March 31, 2003. However, our Company is in possession of a scanned copy of

the shareholding pattern of our Company as on the date of the relevant Annual General Meeting as per the
52Companies Act, 1956 and as on the end of the relevant financial year as per the Companies Act. 2013.

disclose the shareholding of all the shareholders on an individual basis. The said Annual Returns disclose
the shareholding of Mrs. Chhaya Gupta, Mr. Mukesh Kumar Gupta and Mukesh Gupta (HUF) individually,
while the shareholding of the remaining shareholders has been aggregated and disclosed collectively under

53oversee all legal and compliance matters and will make sure to timely comply with all the requirements under the
relevant laws and regulations.
14. There have been instances of delayed filings in the past with certain Regulatory Authorities. If the Regulatory
Authorities impose any monitory penalties on us or take any punitive actions against our Company in relation
to the same, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

On the basis of certificate issued by Prashant D. Vyas, Chartered Engineer (Mechanical Division) having
Registration number 44821 vide certificate dated January 01, 2026.
Our manufacturing facility has experienced under-utilisation of installed capacity, which may adversely affect our
operating efficiency and profitability. During Fiscal 2025, our capacity utilisation ranged between approximately
20% to 50% for different formulations. Such under-utilisation may result in higher per-unit fixed costs, lower
operating margins, and reduced return on capital employed, and may adversely impact our financial performance.
Our manufacturing operations commenced in December 29, 2022, and as a newly operational facility, it typically
requires time to stabilise operations, scale production, establish customer relationships, and achieve optimal
capacity utilisation. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to increase utilisation levels in a
timely manner or at all. Our ability to improve capacity utilisation depends on several factors, including growth
in demand for our products, successful customer acquisition, availability of raw materials, operational efficiency,
and absence of production or supply chain disruptions. Failure to achieve higher utilisation levels may materially
and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
16. Our inability to accurately forecast demand for our products and manages our inventory may have an adverse
effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Our production and distribution processes require us to anticipate the demand for our products based on the
feedback received from our own Veterinary Sales Representatives, as well as Consignee Agents and Stockists.
Accurate assessments of market demand require significant investment in our sales and marketing network and
training of Veterinary Sales Representatives. Our business depends on our estimate of the demand for our products
from our customers. As of September 30, 2025, our total inventories amounted to ₹ 69.09 million or 8.85% of our
total assets as of the same date. As is typical in the veterinary pharmaceutical industry, we maintain a reasonable
level of inventory of finished & semi-finished goods and stock-in-trade, which amounted to ₹ 45.99 million or
5.89% of our total assets as of September 30, 2025. While we seek to fairly accurately forecast the demand for
our products and, accordingly, plan our production volumes, there is no guarantee that our estimate of market
demand for our products in India will be accurate. If we underestimate such demand or have inadequate capacity,
we may manufacture fewer quantities of products than required and be unable to meet the demand for our products,
which could result in the loss of business or constraints in cash flows. For details of our past capacity utilization,
kindly refer “Our Business – Manufacturing Facility – Installed Capacity and Capacity Utilization” beginning
on page 196.
A number of factors may reduce the end-user demand for our products including, among other things, an over-
supply on account of increased competition. On the other hand, we may overestimate demand or demand from
our customers may slow down. As a result, we may produce animal feed supplements in excess of the actual
demand and we may procure products from third party manufacturers in excess of the actual demand, which would
result in surplus stock that we may not be able to sell in a timely manner. Although we have capabilities to store
certain levels of excess output, each of our products has a specific shelf life. Our profitability may be affected if
such products are not sold prior to their expiry. If these products are consumed after expiry, it may lead to health
hazards. Our inability to accurately forecast demand for our products and manage our inventory may have an
adverse effect on our business, financial conditions, cash flows and results of operations. Although we have not
experienced such instances in the past, we cannot assure you that we will not experience this in future and such
instances could have an adverse effect on our business, financial conditions, cash flows and results of operations.
56Recently, we have added poultry feed supplement product in our product portfolio. If we are unable to successfully
develop and commercialize new products that meet market demands and perform as expected, our ability to grow
our business, maintain competitive positioning, and achieve our financial objectives would be materially and
adversely affected.
17. Some of the licenses or registrations required to be maintained by our Company are in the old name or address
of our Company.
We are required to obtain and maintain a number of approvals, licenses, registrations, and permissions under
various laws and regulations from governmental and regulatory authorities in order to operate our business across
jurisdictions in India. Further details kindly refer “Government and Other Statutory Approvals” beginning on
page 413.
Certain of our trademarks and wordmarks are currently registered/ applied for in the former name of our Company.
Additionally, several licenses and registrations continue to reflect the previous registered office address of our
Company and we are currently undertaking the process of updating these details with the respective authorities.
In the meantime, we face the risk of receiving any enquiries due to mismatch in name or address which could
cause confusion for regulatory authorities and any delay in updating them may expose us to regulatory or
operational risks.
Except as disclosed below, there are no material approvals which our Company has applied for but not received,
as on the date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus:
1. Application for registration under the Uttar Pradesh Commercial Shops & Establishment Act, 1962 before
Labour Commissioner vide application no. SA28773836 dated December 27, 2025 in relation to the premises
situated at Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh
Any delay or failure in updating existing approvals or obtaining new approvals in our current name may result in
regulatory actions, penalties, interruptions or restrictions on our business operations, contractual disputes with
customers, vendors or lenders, and may adversely impact our ability to carry on certain aspects of our business.
Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and
financial condition.
18. All of the independent directors do not have relevant industry-specific experience/ qualification related to the
business of our Company.
As on the date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, our Board of Directors comprises of 6 Directors. Except, Mr.
Mukesh Kumar Gupta, Managing Director, Mrs. Chhaya Gupta, Whole-Time Director and Mr. Utkarsh Gupta,
Non-Executive Director, who possess relevant experience in the veterinary pharmaceutical industry, our remaining
3 independent directors, being professionally qualified, do not have experience in the industry in which we
operate.
Qualification & experience details of our Independent Directors are as follows:
Name of the
Sr. No. Independent Qualification & experience

Governance practices and Labour Laws.
For further details kindly refer, “Our Management- Brief profiles of our Directors” beginning on page 234.
The absence of industry-specific expertise among our independent directors may impair the Board's ability to
provide effective strategic oversight, assess industry-specific risks, evaluate operational decisions, and challenge
management on critical business matters unique to the veterinary pharmaceuticals sector. Accordingly, our
Company may need to rely more extensively on the judgment and inputs of the executive management team and
external advisors in respect of industry-specific matters. Any inability of our Independent Directors to effectively
evaluate or challenge management decisions on such matters could adversely affect our strategic decision-making,
corporate governance standards and, consequently, our business, financial condition and results of operations.
19. Risk related to education qualification and certain documents related to the prior experience of Directors are
not traceable.
We have not been able to independently verify following details in the absence of primary documentary evidence
related to education qualification & prior experience.
Name of the
Sr. No. Risk
Director
1 Mrs. Chhaya The documentary evidence in respect of the educational qualifications of Mrs.
Gupta Chhaya Gupta, Promoter and Whole-Time Director, is available only up to the 12th
standard. Our Company does not possess documentary proof of any further

In this Draft Red Herring Prospectus relating to the educational qualifications and professional experience of our
Directors have been made strictly based on the documentary evidence available with our Company. We do not
possess complete documentary evidence in respect of the full educational qualifications and professional
experience of our Directors.
Accordingly, the educational qualifications and experience of our Directors as disclosed in this Draft Red Herring
Prospectus may not fully reflect their actual qualifications or total years of professional experience. In the absence
of complete supporting documents, our Company has conservatively disclosed only such information as can be
substantiated by available records. Any inability to accurately or comprehensively disclose the educational
58qualifications and experience of our Directors may result in regulatory observations, require revisions or additional
disclosures, or adversely affect investor perception and confidence, which may in turn have a material adverse
effect on our business, reputation, and prospects.
20. KYC documents and litigation search for Mrs. Urmila Gupta, one of the members of the Promoter Group could
not be obtained due to estranged relations with such member, and our Company has applied to SEBI for
exemption from disclosure requirements.
Our Company has been unable to obtain KYC documents, litigation search reports, and other information required
under Schedule VI of the SEBI ICDR Regulations from Mrs. Urmila Gupta, one of the members of the Promoter
Group due to estranged relations with such member. As per the SEBI directive issued to the Association of
Investment Bankers of India, exemption from inclusion of certain relatives as part of the Promoter Group can be
granted where the concerned relative does not hold any interest in our Company.
Our Company has filed an application dated January 03, 2026, with SEBI prior to filing of this Draft Red Herring
Prospectus seeking exemption from classifying such member as part of the Promoter Group and from making
disclosures in respect of such member in the offer document.
There is no assurance that SEBI will grant the exemption sought by our Company. In case the exemption is not
granted by SEBI, our Company may be required to continue to classify such member as part of the Promoter
Group and include details of such member in the offer documents based on publicly available information. Our
Company may not be able to verify the accuracy or completeness of information obtained from publicly available
sources, and such information may be incorrect, incomplete, or outdated. The BRLM may be required to caveat
their due diligence certificate submitted to SEBI that disclosures pertaining to such member of the Promoter Group
are based solely on publicly available information and could not be verified with the concerned member. Any
inaccuracy or incompleteness in disclosures relating to such Promoter Group member may affect investor
perception and expose our Company to regulatory action or investor claims.
Our Company will be subject to post-listing compliance requirements under the SEBI Listing Regulations relating
to the members of the Promoter Group, including disclosure of transactions, shareholding changes, and other
matters. The inability to obtain cooperation from such member may result in difficulties in complying with
disclosure requirements and monitoring obligations. In case such member is found to be debarred by SEBI or any
other regulatory authority from accessing capital markets or dealing in securities, it may affect the eligibility of
our Company to undertake the offer or result in regulatory consequences. Our Company may also face challenges
in obtaining undertakings from such member regarding lock-in requirements, non-disposal restrictions, or other
regulatory obligations applicable to member of the Promoter Group, as applicable.
21. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to successfully manage or
accurately report our financial risk.
We rely on our internal control systems to monitor and manage operational, financial, accounting, and
compliance-related risks. Currently we are using following systems to manage operational & financial accounting:
Name of services Name of systems
For Accounting Tally Prime
For stocks/inventory management CBO ERP-Module Distribution
For tracking of Veterinary Sales Representatives CBO ERP-Module Mobile Reporting
For Quality check CBO ERP-Module Manufacturing
For Payroll management CBO ERP-Module Payroll
While we have implemented internal controls and processes intended to ensure the integrity and accuracy of our
financial reporting and compliance with applicable laws, we cannot assure that our internal control systems are
entirely free from deficiencies.
59We have not experienced such instances in past but if we fail to detect or prevent errors, fraud, or failures in
financial reporting or risk management due to inadequacies in our internal controls, it could result in regulatory
scrutiny, misstatements in our financial statements, reputational damage, or delays in meeting our reporting
obligations. Any such failure may have a material adverse effect on our business operations, financial condition,
and results of operations.
Further, if we are unable to maintain effective internal controls in line with evolving business complexity,
regulatory requirements, or increased scale post-Listing, it could impair our ability to comply with applicable
listing and corporate governance requirements.
22. We have in the past entered into related party transactions and may continue to do so in the future.
We have entered into transactions with related parties in the past and from, time to time, we may enter into related
party transactions in the future. 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 and all related party transactions that we may enter into post-listing, will be subject to Board or
Shareholder approval, as necessary under the Companies Act, the SEBI Listing Regulations and other application
laws. It is likely that we may enter into additional related party transactions in the future. Such future related party
transactions may potentially involve conflicts of interest. The table below sets forth details of absolute sum of all
related party transactions and the percentage of such related party transactions to our revenue from operations in
the period/financial years indicated:

No transfer pricing audit has been conducted for related party transactions, as per law there was no requirement
to conduct. For further information on our related party transactions, kindly refer “Summary of the Offer
Document–Summary of Related Party Transactions” and “Restated Standalone Financial Information –Annexure
43: -Related Party Transactions as required under Ind AS 24” beginning on pages 33 and 316 respectively.
23. The veterinary pharmaceutical industry is intensely competitive and if we are unable to respond adequately to
the increased competition or pricing pressure we expect to face, we could lose market share and our revenues
and profits could decline, which would in turn adversely affect our business.
The veterinary pharmaceutical industry is highly competitive, with numerous established players, multinational
corporations, domestic manufacturers, and new entrants competing for market share across product categories and
geographic markets. We face competition from large pharmaceutical companies with extensive product portfolios,
strong brand recognition, established distribution networks, significant financial resources, and advanced research
and development capabilities, as well as from smaller regional players who may compete aggressively on pricing.
In the animal feed supplements, we compete with organized animal feed supplements manufacturers and
unorganized sector players who may offer products at lower prices without maintaining the same quality standards.
Our competitors may introduce superior products with better efficacy, enhanced formulations, innovative delivery
systems, or improved nutritional profiles that could make our offerings less attractive to customers. Intense
competition could lead to significant pricing pressure, forcing us to reduce prices to retain customers and market
60share, thereby compressing our profit margins and adversely affecting our profitability. We may lack the financial
resources, economies of scale, manufacturing capabilities, or marketing reach to compete effectively with larger
competitors who can invest more heavily in product development, advertising campaigns, promotional activities,
and distribution expansion. Competitors may offer more attractive terms to Consignee Agents and Stockists,
including higher trade margins, better credit facilities, volume discounts, or exclusive arrangements, potentially
causing our marketing personnel to prioritize competing products over ours. New entrants, including international
companies entering the Indian market or startups with innovative business models, could disrupt established
market dynamics and capture market share through differentiated offerings, direct-to-consumer channels, or
technology-enabled solutions. Additionally, customers including veterinarians, farmers, and livestock operators
are becoming increasingly price-sensitive and quality-conscious, comparing products across multiple brands and
switching to alternatives offering better value propositions. Our inability to differentiate our products through
superior quality, innovation, brand positioning, technical support, or customer service could result in
commoditization and further intensify price-based competition. The veterinary pharmaceutical industry may also
face competition from generic products, alternative therapies, or preventive care solutions that reduce demand for
certain therapeutic categories. We may need to increase our spending on marketing, sales promotion, product
development, and distribution infrastructure to maintain competitiveness, which could strain our financial
resources without guaranteeing proportionate revenue growth. If we are unable to respond effectively to
competitive pressures, maintain product differentiation, adapt to changing market dynamics, or protect our pricing
power, we could experience loss of market share, revenue decline, margin erosion, reduced profitability, and
deterioration in our competitive positioning, which would materially and adversely affect our business, financial
condition, and results of operations.
24. Introduction of stricter norms regulating marketing practices by veterinary pharmaceutical drugs companies
could affect our ability to effectively market our products, which may have an adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.
The veterinary pharmaceutical industry is subject to various regulations governing marketing and promotional
practices, and regulatory authorities may introduce stricter norms or enhanced compliance requirements that could
restrict our ability to market and promote our products effectively. Such regulations may impose limitations on
interactions with veterinarians, restrictions on promotional materials and claims, mandatory disclosures regarding
product composition and side effects, prohibitions on certain incentive schemes or gifts to healthcare
professionals, and stringent requirements for advertising and promotional campaigns. Stricter marketing norms
could limit our ability to engage with veterinarians and animal health practitioners through continuing medical
education programs, scientific conferences, product demonstrations, or sponsored events, which are important
channels for building relationships and educating practitioners about our product portfolio. Enhanced regulations
may require us to obtain pre-approval for all marketing and promotional materials from regulatory authorities,
leading to delays in launching campaigns, increased compliance costs, and reduced flexibility in responding to
competitive market dynamics. Restrictions on pricing practices, discount schemes, loyalty programs, or trade
incentives could affect our ability to compete effectively with other players who may find ways to circumvent
regulations or operate in less regulated segments. We may need to invest significantly in regular audits, training
sales and marketing personnel and maintaining detailed documentation of all promotional activities. Non-
compliance with marketing regulations, whether intentional or inadvertent, could result in regulatory penalties,
suspension of product licenses, restrictions on promotional activities, legal proceedings, and reputational damage.
Our Veterinary Sales Representatives, Stockists and Consignee Agents, over whom we have limited control, may
violate marketing regulations in their interactions with customers, exposing us to liability and regulatory action
even if such violations occur without our knowledge or authorization. Increased regulatory scrutiny and
enforcement actions against pharmaceutical companies for non-compliant marketing practices could create an
environment of heightened risk and caution, potentially constraining our marketing strategies and competitive
positioning. Additionally, compliance with stricter marketing norms may place us at a competitive disadvantage
if enforcement is inconsistent across the industry or if smaller unorganized players continue to engage in
unregulated promotional practices. If stricter marketing regulations are introduced or existing norms are more
rigorously enforced, and if we are unable to adapt our marketing strategies effectively while maintaining
61compliance, our ability to promote our products, build brand awareness, drive sales growth, and compete
effectively could be significantly hampered, thereby adversely affecting our business, results of operations, and
financial condition.
While our Company has not experienced any instance in the past, there can be no assurance that such
circumstances will not arise in the future, which could adversely affect our operations and financial results.
25. Improper storage, processing and handling of raw material and finished & semi- finished products may cause
damage to our stock.
We have only two storage facilities, one is available within our manufacturing facility located at Ghaziabad, Uttar
Pradesh and another one in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. Our animal feed supplements manufacturing operations and
veterinary pharmaceutical drugs distribution business require proper storage, processing, and handling of various
raw materials, chemicals, feed ingredients, active ingredients for animal feed supplements, and finished & semi-
finished products to maintain their quality, efficacy, and safety. Raw materials used in animal feed supplements,
are susceptible to deterioration due to improper storage conditions such as excessive temperature, humidity,
moisture exposure, or pest infestation, which could lead to spoilage, contamination, loss of nutritional value, or
development of harmful toxins and mycotoxins. Veterinary pharmaceutical drugs, particularly temperature-
sensitive products require strict storage conditions including refrigeration or controlled room temperature, and
any deviation from specified storage parameters could compromise product stability, potency, and shelf life.
Improper handling during loading, unloading, transportation, or warehouse operations may result in physical
damage to packaging, breakage, spillage, cross-contamination between different products, or mixing of
incompatible materials. Certain chemicals and raw materials used in animal feed supplement formulations may
be flammable, or reactive, and inadequate safety protocols during processing and handling could pose risks of
fire. Our storage facility and manufacturing premise may be vulnerable to various risks including structural issues,
inadequate ventilation, insufficient temperature control systems, equipment failures, power outages, rodent or
insect infestation, and inadequate security against theft or tampering. Damage to our stock due to storage,
processing, or handling failures could result in significant financial losses from write-offs of damaged inventory,
disposal costs for contaminated or expired products, inability to fulfil customer orders, and potential claims from
customers who receive substandard products. We may not maintain adequate insurance coverage for all types of
inventory losses, or insurance proceeds may be insufficient to fully compensate for damaged stock and
consequential business losses. Additionally, stock damage incidents could necessitate product recalls, lead to
regulatory investigations, result in license suspensions, or cause reputational harm if defective products reach
customers. We are required to implement good storage practices, maintain proper warehouse management
systems, train personnel on handling procedures, conduct regular quality checks, and ensure compliance with
regulatory standards for storage and handling of veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and animal feed supplements.
Failure to maintain adequate storage infrastructure, implement proper inventory management systems, or ensure
compliance with handling protocols could result in recurring stock damage, increased wastage, higher operating
costs, supply disruptions, and customer dissatisfaction. If we experience significant damage to our raw materials
or finished & semi- finished goods inventory due to improper storage, processing, or handling, our business
operations, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
While our Company has not experienced any instance in the past, there can be no assurance that such
circumstances will not arise in the future, which could adversely affect our operations and financial results.
26. We are subject to counterparty credit risk and our inability to collect receivables in a timely manner, or at all,
may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our operations involve extending credit to our customers in respect of sale of our products and consequently, we
face the risks in connection with the receipt of such outstanding amounts. While we generally limit the credit, we
extend to our customers based on their financial condition and payment history, typically for a period of 45 to 85
days, we may still experience losses because of a customer not paying our dues in a timely manner, or at all.
62The table below sets forth details of our credit cycle as well as our trade receivables, as of the period/financial
years indicated:
As at September
Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023

Days sales outstanding (in days)** 83 76 49 46
Trade Receivables (₹ million) 288.15 221.21 118.08 90.20
Trade Receivables as a % of revenue
45.94 20.79 13.35 12.60
from operations
*Not annualised
**Days sales outstanding are calculated as trade receivables as at the end of the period/financial year divided by
revenue from operations into number of days (i.e., the product of number of months for the relevant
period/financial year and 30).
If a customer delays in making its payment on a product to which we have devoted significant resources, it may
also affect our profitability and liquidity and decrease the capital resources that are available for other uses. Any
increase in our receivable turnover days will negatively affect our business.
In addition, our Company has certain disputed trade receivables that are considered good as of the relevant
reporting periods. Such disputed trade receivables amounted to ₹2.59 million, ₹2.56 million, ₹2.94 million, and
₹2.94 million as of September 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, respectively. Any
adverse outcome in relation to these disputes may result in write-offs or provisioning requirements, which could
have an adverse effect on our financial position, profitability, and cash flows.
While our Company has not experienced any instance of bad debts in the past, there can be no assurance that such
circumstances will not arise in the future, which could adversely affect our operations and financial results.
27. Our business requires working capital and any failure in arranging adequate working capital for our
operations may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash
flows.
We require working capital to finance the purchase of raw materials & finished goods required for our operations,
as well as for our other expenses before payment is received from customers. The table below sets forth details of
certain parameters as on the period / financial years indicated:
As at September
Particulars Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023
30, 2025*
Net working capital days(1) 77 91 40 21
Net working capital turnover (%)(2)(3) 40.37 12.34 2.99 0.95
*Not annualised
Notes:
(1) Net working capital days are calculated as days sales outstanding plus days inventory outstanding minus days
payable outstanding. Days sales outstanding are calculated as trade receivables as at the end of the financial
year/period divided by revenue from operations into number of days (i.e., the product of number of months for the
relevant period/ financial year and 30). Days inventory outstanding are calculated as inventory as at the end of
the financial year/period divided by cost of goods sold (i.e., sum of Cost of Materials Consumed, Purchase of
Stock in Trade and Changes in Inventories of Work in Progress, Stock in Trade & Finished Goods) into number
of days (i.e., the product of number of months for the relevant period/ financial year and 30). Days payable
outstanding are calculated as trade payables as at the end of the financial year/period divided by cost of goods
sold (i.e., sum of Cost of Materials Consumed, Purchase of Stock in Trade and Changes in Inventories of Work in
Progress, Stock in Trade & Finished Goods) into number of days (i.e., the product of number of months for the
63relevant period/ financial year and 30). Our net working capital days increased from 21 for the financial year
ended March 31, 2023 to 91 for the financial year ended March 31, 2025, primarily on account of increase in
inventory days due to increase in stocking of inventory for efficiency in logistics and an increase in trade
receivable days due to some of our customers having long term relations with us, these customers place large-
volume orders and, as part of commercial negotiations, require longer payment terms, leading to increases in
working capital days, particularly as our operations and customers increase.
(2)Net working capital turnover (%) is calculated as net working capital divided by Revenue from operations. Net
working capital is calculated total current assets minus total current liabilities.
(3)For reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures, kindly refer “Other Financial Information –Reconciliation of Non-
GAAP Measures” beginning on page 346.
The actual amount and timing of our future working capital requirements may differ from estimates as a result of
several factors including unforeseen events beyond our control, delays or cost overruns, unanticipated expenses,
regulatory changes, adverse economic conditions, technological changes and additional market developments and
new opportunities in the markets in which we operate. Further, our future success depends on our ability to
continue to secure and successfully manage sufficient amounts of working capital. Our inability to obtain adequate
amounts of working capital in a timely manner and on terms that are acceptable to us, may adversely affect our
business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
28. Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to protect us against all potential losses, which may have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We have obtained various insurance policies to support our business operations. However, if our arrangements for
insurance or indemnification are not adequate to cover claims, we may be required to make substantial payments
which could negatively impact on our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Additionally, our
insurance may not adequately cover all losses or liabilities that may arise from our operations, including, but not
limited to, when the loss suffered is not easily quantifiable.

There can be no assurance that any claims under the aforesaid insurance policies will be fully honored, partially
honoured, or paid in a timely manner, nor can we assure that we have sufficient insurance coverage (either in
terms of amount or risks covered) to address all material losses. Our insurance policies are subject to annual
renewal and may include exclusions or limitations in coverage, and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to
renew them on similar or acceptable terms.

64In the event of a significant uninsured loss or claims exceeding our insurance coverage, or due to changes in
insurance terms, including premium increases, higher deductibles, or co-insurance requirements, our business,
financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations may be adversely affected. Even where insurance
coverage is available for direct losses, we may not be able to take timely or effective remedial or mitigating
actions, which could further impact our operations.
Although our Company has not experienced any instances of material losses or uninsured claims in the past, there
can be no assurance that such events will not occur in the future, and any such occurrence may materially and
adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
29. Our inability to obtain, maintain, or enforce intellectual property rights, including our trademark, may affect
our ability to protect our brand value and business.
Our Company has filed certain trademark applications with the Trade Marks Registry, for details, kindly refer
“Government and other Statutory Approvals” beginning on page 413. Some of these applications have been
objected/opposed by the Registrar of Trade Marks on ground of similarity with existing trademarks and
wordmarks. However, there can be no assurance that these objections or oppositions will be resolved in our favour
or that our trademark and wordmark applications will ultimately be registered. Matters related with the opposed
trademark applications are currently pending with the authority pending final resolution.
If we are unable to successfully obtain or maintain registration of our trademarks and wordmarks, we may not be
able to secure exclusive rights to use such marks in connection with our products and business. We may be
required to rebrand our products, incur additional costs in developing alternative trademarks and wordmarks, or
face legal proceedings initiated by third parties claiming superior rights. Any such developments could result in
financial losses, operational disruptions, and damage to our reputation and market position.
Our Company is engaged in marketing of veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and manufacturing of animal feed
supplements where patent protection for product formulations may be limited, and competitors may develop
similar products using different manufacturing processes or formulation approaches. The inability to protect
intellectual property rights may result in loss of competitive advantage and affect brand value and business. Any
unauthorized use, infringement, or misappropriation of trademarks and wordmarks by competitors or third parties
may result in loss of market exclusivity, pricing power, and customer loyalty. Our Company may face challenges
in detecting infringement, particularly in markets where regulatory enforcement is limited or where counterfeit
products are prevalent.
Protection of intellectual property requires ongoing investment in trademark registrations, monitoring of market
for infringements, and legal actions against unauthorized users. Our Company may incur substantial costs in filing
trademark applications, responding to objections, defending against cancellation petitions, or pursuing
infringement actions in courts or before tribunals. The time required for resolution of intellectual property disputes
may extend over multiple years, during which period our Company may face continued loss of sales or market
share. Any adverse outcome in intellectual property disputes may result in payment of damages, loss of rights to
use brand names, or requirement to rebrand products, which may affect customer recognition and business
continuity.
30. One of the products of our Company is currently being marketed without registered trademark protection.
One of our products is currently being commercially marketed without the benefit of registered trademark
protection. The trademark was subject to a dispute with another company, which resulted in an adverse order
against us. We are in the process of initiating proceedings to seek restoration of the trademark application,
however, there can be no assurance that our application for restoration will be accepted or that the trademark
registration will ultimately be granted in our favour. The restoration and registration process involve uncertainties
and is subject to the discretion of the trademark registry and applicable legal requirements.
65In the absence of registered trademark protection for this product, we do not possess statutory or exclusive rights
over the product name or branding elements. This significantly constrains our ability to take effective legal action
against third parties who may adopt identical or deceptively similar names, logos, packaging, or branding for their
products. We may also be exposed to claims by third parties asserting prior rights over similar marks. Any such
developments could adversely affect our brand reputation, market position, customer loyalty, and revenue
generation from this product. Furthermore, defending against or pursuing legal actions in the absence of registered
trademark rights may prove costly, protracted, and ultimately unsuccessful, which could materially and adversely
affect our business, brand image, goodwill, results of operations, and financial condition.
It is pertinent to note that this product currently contributes minimally to the overall revenue of our Company.
However, the risks associated with the lack of trademark protection remain relevant from a brand integrity and
legal compliance perspective.
31. Our success depends on our ability to retain and attract qualified senior management and other key personnel,
and if we are not able to retain them or recruit additional qualified personnel, we may be unable to successfully
develop our business.
Our performance depends largely on the efforts and abilities of our Promoters, Senior Management and other Key
Personnel, kindly refer “Our Management” and “Our Business – Human Resources” beginning on pages 232 and
214, respectively. Our success is significantly dependent on the experience, expertise, and continued involvement
of our Promoters, senior management personnel, and key managerial personnel, who play a critical role in driving
our business strategy, operations, and growth. The loss of the services of any of these individuals may adversely
affect our strategic direction and delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives.
In addition to our management team, our business is highly dependent on our trained and experienced Veterinary
Sales Representatives and veterinary doctors, who play a key role in marketing our products, building customer
relationships, creating market awareness, and conducting educational and awareness programmes. Competition
for qualified and skilled personnel in the veterinary pharmaceutical industry is intense, and our ability to attract
and retain such personnel is critical to our continued success.
As we continue to expand our operations and introduce new products, we will require additional experienced
management, sales, and technical personnel. Any inability to attract, retain, and motivate qualified employees may
materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Company has incurred following amount in past as Employee benefit expenses for the period/ financial years
ended indicated:
(₹ in million)
Particulars September 30, 2025 Fiscal 2025 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2023
Employee benefit expenses 163.69 267.40 214.56 184.60
% of revenue from operations 26.10 25.13 24.27 25.78
% of total expenses 32.34 32.11 28.74 28.57
If we lose the services of any of member of our management team or key personnel, we may be unable to locate
suitable or qualified replacements and may incur additional expenses to recruit and train new personnel. The loss
of the services of such persons may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and
results of operations.
66The table below presents the attrition rate of our employees for the period ended September 30, 2025 and for
the last three financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023:
For the period / financial year ended

Attrition Rate (%)- ((B/ (A+C)/2)) 21.97 35.95 38.46 20.91
Our Company anticipates an employee attrition rate of approximately 20%–40%, which is managed through
workforce planning measures such as maintaining limited resource buffers, cross-training employees for critical
roles, and implementing standardised documentation and structured handover processes to reduce dependence on
specific individuals.
32. Our Company and the members of our Promoter Group are parties to certain legal proceedings. Any adverse
decision in such proceedings may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
Our Company and members of our Promoter Group are parties to certain legal proceedings. These legal
proceedings are pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts, tribunals and forums. Mentioned
below are the details of the proceedings involving our Company and members of the Promoter Group as on the
date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus along with the amount involved, to the extent quantifiable, based on the

33. This Draft Red Herring Prospectus contains information from third parties including an industry report
prepared by an independent third-party research agency, CRISIL, which we have commissioned and paid for
to confirm our understanding of our industry exclusively in connection with the Offer and reliance on such
information for making an investment decision in the Offer is subject to inherent risks
We have commissioned the services of independent third- party research agency CRISIL and have relied on the
report titled “Assessment of Indian Animal Health and Veterinary Pharmaceutical Industry” (“CRISIL Report”)
dated December 2025 pursuant to an engagement letter dated November 05, 2025. The CRISIL Report has been
commissioned by our Company exclusively in connection with the Offer for a fee. The information is subject to
various limitations, highlights certain industry and market data relating to us and our competitors which may not
be based on any standard methodology and is based upon certain assumptions that are subjective in nature industry
sources take due care and caution while preparing their reports, they do not guarantee the accuracy, adequacy or
completeness of the data. Industry sources and publications may also base their information on estimates,
projections, forecasts and assumptions that may prove to be incorrect. Further, the commissioned report is not a
recommendation to invest or divest in our Company. Prospective investors are advised not to unduly rely on the
commissioned report or extracts thereof as included in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, when making their
investment decisions.
34. Our Company has availed unsecured loans from our Promoters and members of our Promoter Group, which
may be recalled at short notice and could adversely affect our liquidity and financial position.
Our Company has availed unsecured loans from certain Promoters and members of our Promoter Group, namely
Mr. Mukesh Kumar Gupta, Mrs. Chhaya Gupta, Mukesh Gupta (HUF) and Mrs. Shubhangi Gupta. As on
September 30, 2025, the outstanding balances of such unsecured loans were approximately ₹3.39 million, ₹1.32
million, ₹0.33 million and ₹0.53 million, respectively.
These unsecured loans have been provided without any security and may be repayable on demand or at short
notice. There can be no assurance that such lenders will not seek repayment of these loans in the future. Any
requirement to repay these loans at short notice may adversely affect our liquidity position, cash flows and ability
to meet our working capital requirements or fund ongoing operations.
Further, our dependence on unsecured funding from Promoters and members of our Promoter Group exposes us
to risks associated with related party financing, including potential conflicts of interest and uncertainty regarding
the continuity of such funding. If we are unable to replace such funding with alternative sources of financing on
68acceptable terms, or at all, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be
materially and adversely affected.
35. One of our Group Companies and members of our Promoter Group operates in a similar line of business,
which may give rise to potential conflicts of interest in the future.
One of our Group Companies and a member of our Promoter Group, Rodec Healthcare Private Limited, operates
in a business segment similar to that of our Company. The existence of a Group Company in the same or related
line of business may give rise to actual or potential conflicts of interest in the future, including with respect to
allocation of business opportunities, customers, suppliers, managerial focus and strategic decision-making.
Although Rodec Healthcare Private Limited has not generated any revenue from operations during Fiscal 2025,
Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, and currently does not actively compete with our Company, there can be no assurance
that it will not commence operations, expand its activities or undertake business that may be competitive with our
Company in the future.
Further, there is no non-compete or similar agreement between our Company and Rodec Healthcare Private
Limited restricting it from engaging in competing activities. If Rodec Healthcare Private Limited were to become
operational or expand its business in the future, such overlap may result in conflicts of interest, diversion of
management attention, competition for resources or adverse impact on our business prospects.
36. Inconsistent usage of names of Mukesh Kumar Gupta, one of our Promoters, and Narendra Kumar Gupta, a
member of our Promoter Group, across documents may lead to confusion in shareholding records and
regulatory filings.
The name of Mukesh Kumar Gupta, one of the Promoters of our Company, has been used interchangeably as
Mukesh Gupta and Mukesh Kumar Gupta in various documents including share certificates, share transfer forms,
board resolutions, and statutory registers. Similarly, the name of Narendra Kumar Gupta, a member of the
Promoter Group, has been used as Narendra Gupta and Narendra Kumar Gupta in corporate records and allotment
related documents. The correct names as per the permanent account number issued by the Income Tax Department
are Mukesh Kumar Gupta and Narendra Kumar Gupta respectively, and our Company has clarified this position
in its records. However, historical documents including share allotment records, share certificates may contain
different versions of these names.
The variation in names may create ambiguity in identification of the Promoter and Promoter Group member in
shareholding records maintained with our Company and Depositories. Any discrepancy in names across different
documents may lead to difficulties in establishing continuity of shareholding, tracing historical transactions, or
verifying beneficial ownership. The Depositories, stock exchanges, or regulatory authorities may require our
Company to provide clarifications or supporting documents to establish that the different name versions refer to
the same individuals. Our Company may be required to submit affidavits, identity proofs, or other documents
from the Promoter and member of our Promoter Group to reconcile the name variations in regulatory filings and
depository records.
The inconsistency in names may also affect compliance with disclosure requirements under the Companies Act,
2013, SEBI regulations, and Depository regulations. Any confusion in identity may result in questions from
investors, regulatory authorities, or other stakeholders regarding the accuracy of shareholding disclosures in the
offer documents and ongoing regulatory filings. Our Company may face delays in processing regulatory
approvals, stock exchange listings, or Depository services due to name variations requiring additional verification.
There is also risk that third parties may raise disputes or claims alleging that the different name versions represent
different individuals, which may require legal proceedings to establish identity and result in costs and delays.
While our Company has not faced any regulatory actions in the past, there can be no assurance that such
circumstances will not arise in the future, which could adversely affect our operations and financial results.
6937. The average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares held by our Promoters is lower than the Offer Price.
Our Promoters’ average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares in our Company may be lower than the Offer Price
as may be decided by our Company, in consultation with the Book Running Lead Manager. The details of the
average cost of acquisition of Equity Shares held by our Promoters, as on the date of this Draft Red Herring
Prospectus are set out below:
Number of Equity Shares held as
Average cost of acquisition per
Name of the Promoters on the date of this Draft Red
share (in ₹)
Herring Prospectus
Mukesh Kumar Gupta 1,16,04,140 0.05
Chhaya Gupta 56,89,800 0.05
Utkarsh Gupta 30,73,800 Negligible
The above data has been certified through certificate dated January 10, 2026 by statutory auditors namely Rishi
Kapoor & Company vide UDIN 26075483WFONDD9443.
It should, however, be noted that the lower cost of acquisition reflects investments made by our Promoters at an
earlier stage of our Company's development, when the risks associated with our business were significantly higher.
Nevertheless, such disparity in the acquisition cost may affect investor perception and could potentially impact
the trading price of the Equity Shares after listing.
38. Any disruption, slowdown or shutdown in our manufacturing operations could adversely affect our business,
financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
As on the date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, we operate one manufacturing facility situated at Ghaziabad,
Uttar Pradesh. Our business is dependent on our ability to manage our manufacturing operations, which are subject
to various operating risks and factors including, among others, breakdown and/or failure of equipment or industrial
accidents which may entail significant repair and maintenance costs, increases in raw materials, consumables and
manpower costs, challenges in achieving targeted utilization levels at our manufacturing facility, product quality
issues, disruption in electrical power or water resources, timely grant or renewal of approvals, severe weather
conditions, natural disasters and outbreaks of infectious diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, natural
calamities, labor disputes, civil disruptions and changes in the regulations and policies of the states or local
governments where our manufacturing facility is located. Although we have not experienced any material
instances of such disruptions, we cannot assure you that we will not be subject to these risks in the future. Any of
the foregoing could cause delays in our operations or require us to shut down the affected manufacturing facility.
In addition, we may also be subject to manufacturing disruptions due to delays in receiving regulatory
renewal/approvals, which may require our manufacturing facility to cease or limit production until the required
approvals are received, or disputes concerning these approvals are resolved.
Any material disruption at our manufacturing facility, including but not limited to power failure, fire, strikes, lock-
outs and unexpected mechanical failure of equipment, could reduce our ability to meet the conditions of our
business contracts and earnings for the affected period. Although we have not experienced such material
disruptions in the past, we cannot assure you that our manufacturing facility will be able to operate smoothly in
the future. In addition, if we are unable to obtain raw materials and equipment on commercially acceptable terms,
or at all, or if our suppliers fail to deliver the raw materials and equipment to us within a reasonable stipulated
time, it could lead to disruptions, slowdown or shutdown of operations at our manufacturing facility. Our inability
to effectively respond to any such disruption, slowdown or shutdown, and rectify any disruption in a timely
manner and at an acceptable cost, could result in us being unable to satisfy our contractual commitments, which
could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
70While our Company has not experienced any instance in the past, there can be no assurance that such
circumstances will not arise in the future, which could adversely affect our operations and financial results.
39. We are subject to general environmental, health and safety, labour and other governmental regulations, which
are also subject to change. If we fail to comply with the applicable regulations prescribed by the governments
and the relevant regulatory agencies, our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations
will be adversely affected.
We are engaged in the manufacturing of animal feed supplements and marketing of veterinary pharmaceutical
drugs. Our operations, including manufacturing, testing, marketing and sales activities, are subject to laws and
regulations. These laws and regulations prescribe requirements relating to product quality, testing, labelling,
documentation, manufacturing practices, and employee safety. For details of regulations and policies applicable
to our business in India, kindly refer “Key Industry Regulations and Policies” beginning on page 216.
Further, any changes in the laws and regulations applicable to us may lead to uncertainty in our operations and
increase our compliance costs, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows and results
of operations. The Government of India may implement new laws or other regulations and policies that could
affect the manufacturing industry and in particular Veterinary pharmaceutical industry, which could lead to new
compliance requirements, including requiring us to obtain approvals and licenses from the Government of India,
or impose onerous requirements, including imposing mandatory prescription of generic drugs while restricting
prescriptions of branded generic products. For instance, the draft of the Drugs, Medical Devices and Cosmetics
Bill, 2022 was proposed by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India in July 2022 to
consolidate the law relating to the import, manufacture, distribution and sale of drugs, medical devices and
cosmetics as well as the law relating to clinical trials of new drugs and clinical investigation of investigational
medical devices in India, which may eventually replace the prevailing Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940. Further,
there may be uncertainty relating to pricing and other regulations which vary widely across the jurisdictions we
operate in. Any changes in applicable laws, regulations, regulatory policies, or enforcement practices prescribed
by relevant regulatory authorities may increase the cost and time required to obtain approvals or introduce our
new products into the market, and may delay, restrict, or prevent the commercialisation and sale of our products.
Further, any inability or delay on our part to comply with new or amended regulatory requirements may adversely
affect our business operations, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
40. One of the properties used by our Company are occupied by our Company on lease basis. Any termination of
the lease(s) or our failure to renew the same in a favourable, timely manner, or at all, could adversely affect
our activities.
We operate a warehouse facility in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh vide a lease agreement dated December 29, 2025 and
our business is dependent on the continued availability of this facility on acceptable terms. For further details,
kindly refer “Our Business – Properties” beginning on page 215. As we do not own the warehouse, we face risks
associated with non-renewal, termination or adverse modification of the lease, which could require us to relocate
or identify alternative facilities, resulting in operational disruption, increased costs and diversion of management
time. Further, we are exposed to risks arising from the lessor’s non-performance, disputes regarding lease terms,
or changes in applicable local regulations, zoning or compliance requirements. Any disruption in operations at the
warehouse, including due to regional infrastructure issues or regulatory actions, could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
41. Failure, inadequacy or breach of our IT systems or our business processes regarding confidential information
and other data, unauthorized access to our confidential information or violations of data protection laws could
result in material harm to our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
We store confidential information in our information systems, networks, and facilities, including valuable trade
secrets and intellectual property, corporate strategic plans, marketing plans, and personally identifiable
71information, such as employee information. We also rely on the capacity and reliability of the information
technology systems, processing and quality assurance systems that support our operations. We are subject to a
variety of continuously evolving and developing laws and regulations around the world related to privacy, data
protection and data security. Maintaining the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our IT systems and
confidential information is vital to our business.
IT systems are vulnerable to system inadequacies, network failure, hardware failure, operating failures, service
interruptions or failures, security breaches, malicious intrusions or cyber-attacks from a variety of sources. Cyber-
attacks are growing in their frequency, sophistication and intensity, and are becoming increasingly difficult to
detect, mitigate or prevent. Cyber-attacks come in many forms, including the deployment of harmful malware,
exploitation of vulnerabilities (including those third-party software or systems), denial-of-service attacks, the use
of social engineering and other means to compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our IT
systems, confidential information and other data.
While we continue to implement measures in an effort to protect, detect, respond to, minimize or prevent these
risks and to enhance the resiliency of our IT systems, these measures may not be successful and we may fail to
detect or remediate security breaches, malicious intrusions, cyber-attacks or other compromises of our systems,
which could have an adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.
Further, we may be subject to laws and regulations relating to privacy and the collection, storing, sharing, use,
disclosure, and protection of certain types of data. These laws and regulations may continually change as a result
of new legislation, amendments to existing legislation, changes in the enforcement policies and changes in the
interpretation of such laws and regulations by the courts or the regulators.
42. Our Promoters will continue to hold a significant equity stake in our Company after the Offer and their
interests may differ from those of the other shareholders.
Upon completion of the Offer, our Promoters will collectively hold a significant majority stake, specifically [●]
% of our Company's post offer paid-up Equity Share Capital. This substantial concentration of ownership grants
our Promoters considerable influence over our strategic direction and day-to-day operations. This level of
influence means that our Company's future development and financial policies could largely be dictated by the
Promoters' objectives, which may not always align with the interests of other shareholders.
Additionally, a significant risk arises if, in the future, our Promoters are unwilling to dilute their equity stake in
our company, or if they are unable to provide necessary funding themselves. In such scenarios, our Company's
ability to secure capital for its growth initiatives, expansion plans, or operational needs could be severely
constrained, potentially hindering our future development and market competitiveness. Moreover, the
concentrated ownership structure itself could materially and adversely affect the trading price and liquidity of our
Company. For a detailed breakdown, kindly refer "Capital Structure" beginning on page 104.
43. Our Company will not receive any proceeds from the Offer. One of our Promoters, namely, Mr. Mukesh Kumar
Gupta, will receive the proceeds from the Offer.
The Offer is by way of an Offer for Sale of up to 56,50,000 Equity Shares* of face value of ₹ 10 each aggregating
to ₹ [●] million* by Mr. Mukesh Kumar Gupta, who is also one of our Promoters and who shall be entitled to the
entire proceeds from the Offer (net of its portion of the Offer-related expenses) and our Company will not receive
any proceeds from the Offer. Other than Mr. Mukesh Kumar Gupta who is our Promoter and Managing Director,
none of our Directors or Key Managerial Personnel, and members of Senior Management, will receive, in whole
or in part, any proceeds from the Offer. For details, kindly refer “The Offer”, “Capital Structure” and “Objects
of the Offer” beginning on pages 85, 104 and 125, respectively.
*Subject to finalisation of the Basis of Allotment.
7244. We have issued Equity Shares during the preceding 12 months at prices that are lower than the Offer Price.
We have issued Bonus Equity Shares during the 12 months preceding the filing of this Draft Red Herring
Prospectus.Kindly refer “Capital Structure –Notes to the Capital Structure” beginning on page 105. The price at
which our Company has issued the Equity Shares in the past is not indicative of the price at which they will be
offered or traded.
45. Our Promoters, Directors, Key Managerial Personnel, and Senior Management Personnel possess interests in
our Company beyond their standard compensation, including through transactions that may not always be at
arm's length, potentially affecting our financial position.
Beyond their regular remuneration, benefits, and reimbursement of expenses, our Promoters, Directors, Key
Managerial Personnel, and Senior Management Personnel have vested interests in our Company. These interests
primarily extend to their respective shareholdings in our Company and the entitlement to any dividends declared
thereon.
Furthermore, these individuals and their related group companies also have an interest in transactions conducted
between our Company and themselves, or between our Company and our Group Companies. While some of these
transactions may be carried out in the ordinary course of business and at arm's length prices, there is no assurance
that all such transactions, past or future, adhere to these principles. Should any transactions be executed not at
arm's length prices or outside the ordinary course of business, our financial position could be adversely affected
to that extent. For a detailed breakdown of transactions already executed by our Company with our Promoters,
Directors, Key Managerial Personnel, or Senior Management Personnel during past financial years, kindly refer
"Restated Standalone Financial Information" and “Our Management” beginning on page 261 and 232
respectively.
46. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend on our future cash flows, working capital requirements,
capital expenditures and financial condition.
We have not declared and paid dividend in the previous three Fiscals. For details, see section titled “Dividend
Policy” on page 260. However, the amount of our future dividend payments, if any, will depend on our future
earnings, cash flows, financial condition, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, applicable Indian
legal restrictions and other factors. There can be no assurance that we will pay dividends. We may decide to retain
all of our earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business and, therefore, may not declare
dividends on our Equity Shares. Additionally, in the future, we may be restricted by the terms of our financing
agreements in making dividend payments unless otherwise agreed with our lenders.
External Risk Factors
47. A slowdown in economic growth in India could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results
of operations.
The performance and growth of our business are inherently dependent on the health of the Indian economy. Any
sustained slowdown or volatility in macroeconomic indicators—such as GDP growth, interest rates, inflation, or
employment—could adversely impact consumer and corporate spending, including on transportation and mobility
services. In addition, global economic instability, disruptions in trade flows, changes in fiscal or monetary policies,
or geopolitical tensions (including conflicts in Europe, West Asia, or Asia-Pacific regions) may have indirect
effects on domestic demand. A decline in overall economic activity may result in reduced demand for our services,
delays in receivables, or pricing pressures, thereby adversely affecting our revenue, cash flows, and profitability.
7348. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application of tax laws, in the
jurisdictions in which we operate may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
The regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving and subject to change. Such changes,
including the instances mentioned below, could adversely affect our business, prospects and results of operations,
to the extent that we are unable to suitably respond to and comply with any such changes in applicable law and
policy. Further, any future amendments may affect our tax benefits such as exemptions for income earned by way
of dividend from investments in other domestic companies and units of mutual funds, exemptions for interest
received in respect of tax-free bonds, and long-term capital gains on equity shares. Changes in capital gains tax
or tax on capital market transactions or the sale of shares could affect investor returns. As a result, any such
changes or interpretations could have an adverse effect on our business and financial performance.
The GoI has passed new laws relating to social security, occupational safety, industrial relations and wages
namely, the Code on Social Security, 2020 (“Social Security Code”), the Occupational Safety, Health and
Working Conditions Code, 2020, the Industrial Relations Code, 2020 and the Code on Wages, 2019 (“Wages
Code”, and collectively, the “Labour Codes”) which were made effective from November 21, 2025. While the
rules for implementation under these Labour Codes have not been finalized, as an immediate consequence, the
coming into force of these codes could increase the financial burden on our Company, which may adversely
impact our profitability, and we may be required to make applications for registrations and licenses under the
Labour Codes. For instance, under the Social Security Code, a new concept of deemed remuneration has been
introduced, such that where an employee receives more than half (or such other percentage as may be notified by
the Central Government) of their total remuneration in the form of allowances and other amounts that are not
included within the definition of wages under the Social Security Code, the excess amount received shall be
deemed as remuneration and accordingly be added to wages for the purposes of the Social Security Code and the
compulsory contribution to be made towards the employees’ provident fund.
Unfavorable changes in or interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new, laws, rules and regulations
including foreign investment and stamp duty laws governing our business and operations could result in us being
deemed to be in contravention of such laws and may require us to apply for additional approvals. 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 businesses or restrict
our ability to grow our businesses in the future.
49. We may be affected by competition laws, the adverse application or interpretation of which could adversely
affect our business.
The Competition Act, 2002, as amended (the “Competition Act”) was enacted for the purpose of preventing
practices that have or are likely to have an adverse effect on competition (“AAEC”) in certain markets in India
and has mandated the Competition Commission of India (the “CCI”) to separate such practices. Under the
Competition Act, any arrangement, understanding or action, whether formal or informal, which causes or is likely
to cause an AAEC is deemed void and attracts substantial penalties.
Further, any agreement among competitors which directly or indirectly involves determination of purchase or sale
prices, limits or controls production, or shares the market by way of geographical area or number of customers in
the relevant market is presumed to have an appreciable adverse effect on competition in the relevant market in
India and shall be void. Further, the Competition Act prohibits abuse of dominant position by any enterprise. If it
is proved that the contravention committed by a company took place with the consent or connivance or is
attributable to any neglect on the part of, any director, manager, secretary or other officer of such company, that
person shall be guilty of the contravention and liable to be punished.
The Competition Act aims to, among others, prohibit all agreements and transactions which may have an AAEC
in India. Consequently, certain agreements entered into by us could be within the purview of the Competition Act.
74Further, the CCI has extra-territorial powers and can investigate any agreements, abusive conduct or combination
occurring outside India if such agreement, conduct or combination has an AAEC in India. The effects of the
provisions of the Competition Act on the agreements entered into by us cannot be predicted with certainty at this
stage. However, since we pursue an acquisition driven growth strategy, we may be affected, directly or indirectly,
by the application or interpretation of any provision of the Competition Act, any enforcement proceedings initiated
by the CCI, any adverse publicity that may be generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI, or any
prohibition or substantial penalties levied under the Competition Act, which would adversely affect our business,
results of operations, cash flows and prospects.
The Government of India has also passed the Competition (Amendment) Act, 2023, which has proposed several
amendments to the Competition Act, such as introduction of deal value thresholds for assessing whether a merger
or acquisition qualifies as a “combination”, expedited merger review timelines, codification of the lowest standard
of “control” and enhanced penalties for providing false information or a failure to provide material information.
If we pursue acquisitions in the future, we may be affected, directly or indirectly, by the application or
interpretation of any provision of the Competition Act, any enforcement proceedings initiated by the CCI, any
adverse publicity that may be generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI, or any prohibition or substantial
penalties levied under the Competition Act, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash
flows and prospects.
50. We are affected by global economic and financial market conditions, including volatility caused by geopolitical
tensions, inflationary pressures and trade disruptions.
Our operations and prospects may be indirectly impacted by global financial instability, including volatility in
crude oil prices, currency fluctuations, interest rate hikes by major central banks, and capital outflows from
emerging markets. Additionally, disruptions arising from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, Middle East
tensions, or a potential recession in major economies like the U.S. or China, could negatively affect investor
sentiment, liquidity in capital markets, or inflation in input costs such as fuel and fleet procurement. A prolonged
downturn in global economic conditions may affect our growth trajectory, customer budgets, and overall
profitability.
51. Political, economic or other factors that are beyond our control may have an adverse effect on our business
and results of operations.
Over the past decade, India’s economy has undergone significant changes, with external trade and capital flows
becoming increasingly important. 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. Conditions outside India may also contribute to a slowdown in the Indian
economy or changes in India’s economic policies and regulations, which could adversely affect the level of trading
activity in the securities market, such as the Russia-Ukraine war, power shortages in Europe, and rising inflation
rates globally. Our performance and the growth of our business depend on the overall performance of the Indian
economy as well as the economies of the regional markets in which we operate. Further, the following external
risks may have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations, should any of them materialize:
i. increase in interest rates may adversely affect our access to capital and increase our borrowing costs, which
may constrain our ability to grow our business and operate profitably;
ii. downgrade of India’s sovereign debt rating by an independent agency;
iii. political instability, resulting from a change in governmental or economic and fiscal policies, may adversely
affect economic conditions in India. In recent years, India has implemented various economic and political
reforms. Reforms in relation to land acquisition policies and trade barriers have led to increased incidents of
social unrest in India over which we have no control;
iv. civil unrest, acts of violence, terrorist attacks, regional conflicts or situations or war; and
75v. India has experienced epidemics, and natural calamities such as earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and drought
in recent years.
vi. contagious diseases such as the COVID-19 pandemic or a similar contagious disease could adversely affect
the Indian economy and economic activity in the region.
52. A downgrade in India’s sovereign credit rating may adversely affect our access to capital and increase
borrowing costs.
Our cost of borrowing and ability to raise additional capital from domestic and international markets may be
influenced by India’s sovereign credit rating. Any downgrade in the country’s rating by global credit agencies may
lead to tightening of liquidity, increase in interest rates, or risk aversion by institutional investors, thereby affecting
our funding plans or working capital cycle. Additionally, such a downgrade could adversely affect the valuation
of Indian securities, including our Equity Shares, and restrict our ability to finance future expansion or strategic
initiatives.
53. The occurrence of natural or man-made disasters, pandemics, or large-scale disruptions could materially and
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Our business and operations are susceptible to adverse effects from natural disasters such as cyclones, floods, and
earthquakes, as well as man-made disasters, including acts of terrorism, military actions, hostilities, civil unrest,
or other acts of violence. Such events may disrupt our operations, cash flows, or financial condition and could
also adversely affect the Indian securities markets. Additionally, deteriorating international relations, particularly
between India and its neighbouring countries, may raise investor concerns about regional stability, negatively
impacting the trading price of our Equity Shares. Social, economic, or political disturbances within India could
similarly harm our business and market perception of investment in Indian companies.
In addition, India, along with several other countries, remains vulnerable to outbreaks of infectious diseases, such
as influenza strains (H1N1, H5N1, H7N9) and viruses with pandemic potential. The COVID-19 pandemic caused
severe disruption to global economic activity and significantly affected our business by reducing demand for
transportation services due to nationwide lockdowns, travel restrictions, and the shift of many corporate clients to
hybrid or remote work models. The long-term effects of such structural changes in workplace behaviour continue
to influence corporate mobility needs, which may adversely affect our revenue visibility and growth prospects.
Future pandemics, epidemics, or other public health crises could similarly lead to large-scale disruptions in
economic activity, supply chains, labour availability, and government projects. Such events could result in
suspension or restriction of our operations, reduced customer demand, health-related risks to our employees and
chauffeurs, and uncertainties in revenue generation. We cannot assure you that there will not be any such incidents
in the future, and any of these developments could materially and adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations, cash flows, and the trading price of our Equity Shares.
54. We are subject to evolving foreign investment regulations in India, which may impact our ability to raise capital
from international investors.
Any transfer of our Equity Shares involving non-resident investors is subject to India’s foreign exchange
regulations, including pricing norms, sectoral caps, and reporting requirements. While our business currently falls
under the automatic route for foreign investment, any change in sectoral policies, or reclassification under Press
Note regulations, may require prior approval of regulatory authorities. This may adversely affect our ability to
attract foreign investment or raise capital in future offerings. Additionally, delays or non-compliance with FEMA
or RBI guidelines could result in penalties and reputational risks.
7655. Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as IFRS, which investors
may be more familiar with and may consider material to their assessment of our financial condition.
Our Restated Standalone Financial Information for the period ended September 30, 2025 and for the financial
year ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 & March 31, 2023, have been prepared and presented in conformity
with Ind AS and with requirements of Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Companies Act, 2013, the SEBI
ICDR Regulations and the Guidance Note on “Reports in Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019)” issued by the
ICAI. Ind AS differs in certain significant respects from IFRS and other accounting principles with which
prospective investors may be familiar in other countries. We have not attempted to quantify their impact of IFRS
on the financial data included in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus nor do we provide a reconciliation of our
financial statements to those of IFRS. IFRS differs in significant respects from Ind AS. Prospective investors
should review the accounting policies applied in the preparation of our financial statements and consult their own
professional advisers for an understanding of the differences between these accounting principles and those with
which they may be more familiar. Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting practices on the
financial disclosures presented in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus should be limited accordingly.
56. The Indian tax regime has undergone substantial changes which could adversely affect our business and the
trading price of the Equity Shares.
Our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected by any change
in the extensive central and state tax regime in India as applicable to us and our business.
The tax regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving and is subject to change. The GoI may
implement new tax laws or other regulations and policies that could affect our business and the financial services
industry, which could lead to new tax and compliance requirements, including requiring us to obtain approvals
and licenses from the GoI and other regulatory bodies, or impose onerous requirements. Such requirements could
increase our costs or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of
operations. Further, the manner in which new requirements will be enforced or interpreted can lead to uncertainty
in our operations and could adversely affect our operations. Any changes to such tax laws, including the instances
mentioned below, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Any change in Indian tax laws in a central or state level could have an effect on our operations. The GoI has
implemented two major reforms in Indian tax laws, namely the Goods and Services Tax (“GST”), and provisions
relating to general anti avoidance rules (“GAAR”). The indirect tax regime in India has undergone a complete
overhaul. The indirect taxes on goods and services, such as central excise duty, service tax, central sales tax, state
value added tax, surcharge and excise have been replaced by GST with effect from July 1, 2017. The GST regime
continues to be subject to amendments and its interpretation by the relevant regulatory authorities is constantly
evolving. GAAR became effective from April 1, 2017. The tax consequences of the GAAR provisions being
applied to an arrangement may result in, among others, a denial of tax benefit to us and our business. In the absence
of any substantial precedents on the subject, the application of these provisions is subjective. If the GAAR
provisions are made applicable to us, it may have an adverse tax impact on us. Further, if the tax costs associated
with certain of our transactions are greater than anticipated because of a particular tax risk materializing on account
of new tax regulations and policies, it could affect our profitability from such transactions. The Income Tax Bill,
2025 (“IT Bill”) has been passed by the parliament and has also received the assent of the President on August
21, 2025, which seeks to simplify the language and restructuring of provisions of the existing Income Tax Act,
1961 (“Income Tax Act”). The IT Bill will come into force on April 01, 2026.
Earlier, distribution of dividends by a domestic company was subject to Dividend Distribution Tax (“DDT”), in
the hands of our company at an effective rate of 20.56% (inclusive of applicable surcharge and cess). Such
dividends were generally exempt from tax in the hands of the shareholders. However, the GoI has amended the
Income-tax Act, 1961 (“Income Tax Act”) to abolish the DDT regime. Accordingly, any dividend distribution by
77a domestic company is subject to tax in the hands of the investor at the applicable rate. Additionally, we are
required to withhold tax on such dividends distributed at the applicable rate.
We cannot predict whether any new tax laws or regulations impacting our services will be enacted, what the nature
and impact of the specific terms of any such laws or regulations will be or whether if at all, any laws or regulations
would have an adverse effect on our business. Further, any adverse order passed by the appellate authorities/
tribunals/ courts would have an effect on our profitability. In addition, we are subject to tax related inquiries and
claims.
57. If inflation were to rise in India, we might not be able to increase the prices of our products at a proportional
rate in order to pass costs on to our customers thereby reducing our margins.
Inflation rates in India have been volatile in recent years, and such volatility may continue in the future. India has
experienced high inflation in the recent past. Increased inflation can contribute to an increase in interest rates and
increased costs to our business, including increased costs of wages and other expenses. High fluctuations in
inflation rates may make it more difficult for us to accurately estimate or control our costs. Any increase in
inflation in India can increase our expenses, which we may not be able to adequately pass on to our customers,
whether entirely or in part, and may adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial
condition. In particular, we might not be able to reduce our costs or increase the price of our products to pass the
increase in costs on to our customers. In such case, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial
condition may be adversely affected. Further, the Government of India has previously initiated economic measures
to combat high inflation rates, and it is unclear whether these measures will remain in effect. There can be no
assurance that Indian inflation levels will not worsen in the future. In such case, our business, results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows may be adversely affected.
58. The determination of the Price Band is based on various factors and assumptions and the Offer Price, price to
earnings ratio and market capitalization to revenue multiple based on the Offer Price of our Company, may
not be indicative of the market price of our Company on listing or thereafter.
Our revenue from operations for Fiscal 2025 was ₹ 1,063.93 million and profit for the Fiscal 2025 was ₹ 182.57
million. The table below provides details of our price to earnings ratio and market capitalization to revenue from
operations at the upper end of the Price Band:
Particulars Price to Earnings Ratio Market Capitalization to Revenue
Fiscal 2025 [●]* [●]*
* To be populated at Prospectus stage.
The determination of the Price Band is based on various factors and assumptions and will be determined by our
Company in consultation with the BRLM. The relevant financial parameters based on which the Price Band will
be determined shall be disclosed in the advertisement that will be issued for the publication of the Price Band.
Further, the Offer Price of the Equity Shares is proposed to be determined on the basis of assessment of market
demand for the Equity Shares offered through the book-building process prescribed under the SEBI ICDR
Regulations, and certain quantitative and qualitative factors as set out in the chapter titled “Basis for Offer Price”
beginning on page 129 and the Offer Price, multiples and ratios may not be indicative of the market price of our
Company on listing or thereafter.
Prior to the Offer, there has been no public market for our Equity Shares, and an active trading market on the
Stock Exchanges may not develop or be sustained after the Offer. Listing does not guarantee that a market for the
Equity Shares will develop, or if developed, the liquidity of such market for the Equity Shares.
The market price of the Equity Shares may be subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other
factors, variations in our operating results, market conditions specific to the industry we operate in, developments
relating to India, announcements by third parties or governmental entities of significant claims or proceedings
78against us, volatility in the securities markets in India and other jurisdictions, 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. As a result, we cannot assure you that an active market will develop
or sustained trading will take place in the Equity Shares or provide any assurance regarding the price at which the
Equity Shares will be traded after listing. Further, the market price of the Equity Shares 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.
59. Pursuant to listing of the Equity Shares, we may be subject to pre-emptive surveillance measures like Additional
Surveillance Measure (“ASM”) and Graded Surveillance Measures (“GSM”) by the Stock Exchanges in order
to enhance market integrity and safeguard the interest of investors.
SEBI and Stock Exchanges in order to enhance market integrity and safeguard interest of investors, have been
introducing various enhanced pre-emptive surveillance measures. The main objective of these measures is to alert
and advise investors to be extra cautious while dealing in these securities and advice market participants to carry
out necessary due diligence while dealing in these securities. Accordingly, SEBI and Stock Exchanges have
provided for (a) GSM on securities where such trading price of such securities does not commensurate with
financial health and fundamentals such as earnings, book value, fixed assets, net-worth, price per equity multiple
and market capitalization; and (b) ASM on securities with surveillance concerns based on objective parameters
such as price and volume variation and volatility.
On listing, we may be subject to general market conditions which may include significant price and volume
fluctuations. The price of our Equity Shares may also fluctuate after the Offer due to several factors such as
volatility in the Indian and global securities market, our profitability and performance, performance of our
competitors, changes in the estimates of our performance or any other political or economic factor. The occurrence
of any of the abovementioned factors may trigger the parameters identified by SEBI and the Stock Exchanges for
placing securities under the GSM or ASM framework such as net worth and net fixed assets of securities, high
low variation in securities, client concentration and close to close price variation.
In the event our Equity Shares are covered under such pre-emptive surveillance measures implemented by SEBI
and the Stock Exchanges, we may be subject to certain additional restrictions in relation to 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 market for and trading of our Equity
Shares.
60. The Equity Shares have never been publicly traded, and the Offer may not result in an active or liquid market
for the Equity Shares. Further, the price of the Equity Shares may be volatile, and the investors 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 does not guarantee that a market
for the Equity Shares will develop, or if developed, the liquidity of such market for the Equity Shares. Our Equity
Shares are expected to trade on NSE and BSE after the Offer, but there can be no assurance that active trading in
our Equity Shares will develop after the Offer, or if such trading develops that it will continue. Investors may not
be able to sell our Equity Shares at the quoted price if there is no active trading in our Equity Shares. There has
been significant volatility in the Indian stock markets in the recent past, and the trading price of our Equity Shares
after the Offer could fluctuate significantly as a result of market volatility or due to various internal or external
risks, including but not limited to those described in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. The market price of our
Equity Shares may be influenced by many factors, some of which are beyond our control, including, among others:
(i) the failure of security analysts to cover the Equity Shares after the Offer, or changes in the estimates of
our performance by analysts;
79(ii) the activities of competitors and suppliers;
(iii) future sales of the Equity Shares by us or our Shareholders;
(iv) investor perception of us and the industry in which we operate;
(v) changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations of principles;
(vi) our quarterly or annual earnings or those of our competitors;
(vii) developments affecting fiscal, industrial or environmental regulations; and
(viii) the public’s reaction to our press releases and adverse media reports.
A decrease in the market price of our Equity Shares could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.
61. Investors may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of income arising on the sale of the Equity Shares.
Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares
in an Indian company are generally taxable in India. Any capital gain exceeding ₹ 1,25,000, realized on the sale
of listed equity shares on recognized stock exchange, held for more than 12 months immediately preceding the
date of transfer, will be subject to long term capital gains in India, at the rate of 12.5% (plus applicable surcharge
and cess). This beneficial rate is, among others, subject to payment of Securities Transaction Tax (“STT”). Further,
any gain realized on the sale of equity shares in an Indian company held for more than 12 months, which are sold
using any platform other than a recognized stock exchange and on which no STT has been paid, will be subject to
long term capital gains tax in India, at the rate of 12.5% (plus applicable surcharge and cess).
Further, any capital gains realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less
immediately preceding the date of transfer will be subject to short term capital gains tax in India. Such gains will
be subject to tax at the rate of 20% (plus applicable surcharge and cess), subject to STT being paid at the time of
sale of such shares. Otherwise, such gains will be taxed at the applicable rates.
Capital gains arising from the sale of the Equity Shares will be exempt from taxation in India in cases where the
exemption from taxation in India is provided under a treaty between India and the country of which the seller is
resident (as per tax laws). Generally, Indian tax treaties do not limit India’s ability to impose tax on capital gains.
As a result, residents of other countries may be liable for tax in India as well as in their jurisdiction on a gain upon
the sale of the Equity Shares.
Similarly, any business income realized from the transfer of Equity Shares held as business or trading assets is
taxable at the applicable tax rates. In the case of a non-resident seller, the applicable tax rates may be subject to
any treaty relief, if applicable.
Additionally, the Indian tax laws require deduction of tax at source in respect of dividends declared, distributed
or paid by a domestic company after March 31, 2020, and such dividends would be taxable at applicable rates in
the hands of the shareholders, both resident as well as non-resident (for tax purposes). We may or may not grant
the benefit of a tax treaty (where applicable) to a non-resident shareholder for the purposes of deducting tax at
source pursuant to any corporate action including dividends.
62. Any future issuance of Equity Shares, or convertible securities or other equity linked instruments by us may
dilute your shareholding and sale of Equity Shares by shareholders with significant shareholding may
adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.
We may be required to finance our growth through future equity offerings. Any future equity issuances by us,
including a primary offering of Equity Shares, convertible securities or securities linked to Equity Shares, may
lead to the dilution of investors’ shareholdings in our Company. Any future equity issuances by us or sales of our
Equity Shares by our Shareholders may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares, which may lead to
other adverse consequences including difficulty in raising capital through offering of our Equity Shares or
incurring additional debt. Any disposal of Equity Shares by our Promoters, or the perception that such issuance or
80sales may occur, including to comply with the minimum public shareholding norms applicable to listed companies
in India may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares, which may lead to other adverse consequences
including difficulty in raising capital through offering of the Equity Shares or incurring additional debt. There can
be no assurance 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. Any future
issuances could also dilute the value of your investment in the Equity Shares. In addition, any perception by
investors that such issuances or sales might occur may also affect the market price of our Equity Shares.
63. Under Indian law, foreign investors are subject to investment restrictions that limit our ability to attract foreign
investors, which may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.
Under foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfer of shares between non-residents and
residents are freely permitted (subject to compliance with sectoral norms and certain other restrictions), 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 a prior approval of the RBI will be required. Further,
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.
Additionally, shareholders who seek to convert Indian Rupee proceeds from a sale of shares in India into foreign
currency and repatriate that foreign currency from India require a no-objection or a tax clearance certificate from
the Indian income tax authorities. As provided in the foreign exchange controls currently in effect in India, the
RBI has provided that the price at which the Equity Shares are transferred be calculated in accordance with
internationally accepted pricing methodology for the valuation of shares at an arm’s length basis, and a higher (or
lower, as applicable) price per share may not be permitted. We cannot assure investors that any required approval
from the RBI or any other Indian government agency can be obtained on any particular terms, or at all. Further,
due to possible delays in obtaining requisite approvals, investors in the Equity Shares may be prevented from
realizing gains during periods of price increase or limiting losses during periods of price decline. In addition,
pursuant to the Press Note No. 3 (2020 Series), dated April 17, 2020, issued by the DPIIT, which has been
incorporated as the proviso to Rule 6(a) of the FEMA Non-debt Rules, all investments under the foreign direct
investment route by entities of a country which shares land border with India or where the beneficial owner of the
Equity Shares is situated in or is a citizen of any such country, can only be made through the Government approval
route, as prescribed in the Consolidated FDI Policy dated October 15, 2020 and the FEMA Rules. While the term
“beneficial owner” is defined under the Prevention of Money-Laundering (Maintenance of Records) Rules, 2005
and the General Financial Rules, 2017, neither the foreign direct investment policy nor the FEMA Rules provide
a definition of the term “beneficial owner”. The interpretation of “beneficial owner” and enforcement of this
regulatory change involve certain uncertainties, which may have an adverse effect on our ability to raise foreign
capital. Further, in the event of transfer of ownership of any existing or future foreign direct investment in an
entity in India, directly or indirectly, resulting in the beneficial ownership falling within the aforesaid
restriction/purview, such subsequent change in the beneficial ownership will also require approval of the
Government of India. These investment restrictions shall also apply to subscribers of offshore derivative
instruments. Additionally, there is uncertainty regarding the timeline within which the said approval from the GoI
may be obtained, if at all.
For further information, kindly refer “Restrictions on Foreign Ownership of Indian Securities” beginning on page
474.
8164. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and foreign currencies may have an adverse effect
on the value of the Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.
Upon listing, the Equity Shares will be quoted in Indian Rupees on the Stock Exchanges. Any dividends in respect
of the Equity Shares will be paid in Indian Rupees and subsequently converted into appropriate foreign currency
for repatriation. In addition, any adverse movement in exchange rates during a delay in repatriating the proceeds
from a sale of Equity Shares outside India, for example, because of a delay in regulatory approvals that may be
required for the sale of Equity Shares, may reduce the net proceeds received by shareholders.
65. QIBs and Non-Institutional Bidders are not permitted to withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms of quantity of
Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid and Retail Individual Investors are not
permitted to withdraw their Bids after Bid/Offer Closing Date.
Under the SEBI ICDR Regulations, Qualified Institutional Buyers and Non-Institutional Bidders are not permitted
to withdraw or reduce their Bids (whether in terms of quantity of Equity Shares or Bid Amount) after submission.
Retail Individual Bidders are permitted to revise their Bids during the Bid/Offer Period and withdraw their Bids
up to the Bid/Offer Closing Date.
Our Company is required to complete the allotment, listing, and commencement of trading of the Equity Shares
within three (3) Working Days from the Bid/Offer Closing Date. However, certain unforeseen events may occur
during this period, including material adverse changes in international or domestic monetary policy, financial,
political, or economic conditions, or developments affecting our business, financial condition, results of
operations, or cash flows, which may influence Bidders’ investment decisions.
Notwithstanding the occurrence of such events, our Company may proceed with the allotment, listing, and
commencement of trading of the Equity Shares. As a result, such developments may restrict the ability of Bidders
to sell the Equity Shares allotted pursuant to the Offer or may lead to a decline in the trading price of the Equity
Shares upon listing.
66. Investors may be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian law and thereby may
suffer future dilution of their ownership position.
Under the Companies Act, 2013, a company having share capital and incorporated in India must offer its holders
of equity shares pre-emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of shares to maintain their
existing ownership percentages before the issuance of any new equity shares, unless the pre-emptive rights have
been waived by adoption of a special resolution by holders of three-fourths of the equity shares voting on such
resolution.
However, if the law of the jurisdiction the investors are in, does not permit them to exercise their pre-emptive
rights without our Company filing an offering document or registration statement with the applicable authority in
such jurisdiction, the investors will be unable to exercise their pre-emptive rights unless our Company makes such
a filing. If we elect not to file a registration statement, the new securities may be issued to a custodian, who may
sell the securities for the investor’s benefit. The value such custodian receives on the sale of such securities and
the related transaction costs cannot be predicted. In addition, to the extent that the investors are unable to exercise
pre-emptive rights granted in respect of the Equity Shares held by them, their proportional interest in our Company
would be reduced.
67. Rights of shareholders of companies under Indian law may be more limited than under the laws of other
jurisdictions.
Our Articles of Association, composition of our Board, Indian laws governing our corporate affairs, the validity
of corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties, responsibilities and liabilities, and shareholders’ rights may
82differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction. Shareholders’ rights under Indian law
may not be as extensive and widespread as shareholders’ rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions.
Investors may face challenges in asserting their rights as shareholder of our Company than as a shareholder of an
entity in another jurisdiction.
68. Investors may have difficulty enforcing judgements in India against us or our management.
Our Company is incorporated under the laws of India. All of our Company’s assets are located in India and all of
our Company’s Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and Senior Management are residents of India. As a result,
it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process upon our Company or such persons in jurisdictions
outside India, or to enforce judgments obtained against such parties outside India. Furthermore, it is unlikely that
an Indian court would enforce foreign judgments if that court was of the view that the amount of damages awarded
was excessive or inconsistent with public policy, or if judgments are in breach or contrary to Indian law. In
addition, a party seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in India is required to obtain approval from the RBI to
execute such a judgment or to repatriate outside India any amounts recovered.
Recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments is provided for under Section 13 of CPC on a statutory basis.
Section 13 of the CPC provides that foreign judgments shall be conclusive regarding any matter directly
adjudicated upon, except: (i) where the judgment has not been pronounced by a court of competent jurisdiction;
(ii) where the judgment has not been given on the merits of the case; (iii) where it appears on the face of the
proceedings that the judgment is founded on an incorrect view of international law or a refusal to recognize the
law of India in cases to which such law is applicable; (iv) where the proceedings in which the judgment was
obtained were opposed to nature justice; (v) where the judgment has been obtained by fraud; and (vi) where the
judgment sustains a claim founded on a breach of any law then in force in India. Under the CPC, a court in India
shall, upon the production of any document purporting to be a certified copy of a foreign judgment, presume that
the judgment was pronounced by a court of competent jurisdiction, unless the contrary appears on record.
However, under the CPC, such presumption may be displaced by proving that the court did not have jurisdiction.
69. A third party could be prevented from acquiring control of us post Offer, because of anti-takeover provisions
under Indian law.
As a listed Indian entity, there are provisions in Indian law that may delay, deter or prevent a future takeover or
change in control of our Company. Under the SEBI Takeover Regulations, an acquirer has been defined as any
person who, directly or indirectly, acquires or agrees to acquire shares or voting rights or control over a company,
whether individually or acting in concert with others. Although these provisions have been formulated to ensure
that the interests of investors/shareholders are protected, these provisions may also discourage a third party from
attempting to take control of our Company subsequent to completion of the Offer. Consequently, even if a potential
takeover of our Company would result in the purchase of the Equity Shares at a premium to their market price or
would otherwise be beneficial to our shareholders, such a takeover may not be attempted or consummated because
of the SEBI Takeover. Further, there are requirements under the Securities and Exchange Board of India
(Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015 and the Takeover Regulations if the shareholding of any entity
exceeds the specified threshold.
70. Financial instability in other countries may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets.
The Indian market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries,
including conditions in the United States, Europe and certain emerging economies in Asia. Currencies of a few
Asian countries have in the past suffered depreciation against the U.S. Dollar owing to various factors. Although
economic conditions vary across markets, loss of investor confidence in one emerging economy may cause
increased volatility across other economies, including India. Any worldwide financial instability may cause
increased volatility in the Indian financial markets and, directly or indirectly, adversely affect the Indian economy
and financial sector and us. Financial instability in other parts of the world could have a global influence and
83thereby negatively affect the Indian economy. Concerns related to a trade war between large economies may lead
to increased risk aversion and volatility in global capital markets and consequently have an impact on the Indian
economy. These developments, or the perception that any related developments could occur, have had and may
continue to have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and financial markets, and may
significantly reduce global market liquidity, restrict the ability of key market participants to operate in certain
financial markets or restrict our access to capital. This could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations and reduce the price of our Equity Shares.
71. There is no guarantee that our Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchanges in a timely manner or at
all
In accordance with Indian law and practice, permission for listing and trading of our Equity Shares will not be
granted until after certain actions have been completed in relation to this Offer and until Allotment of Equity
Shares pursuant to this Offer. In accordance with current regulations and circulars issued by SEBI, our Equity
Shares are required to be listed on the BSE and NSE within such time as mandated under the applicable laws
including the UPI Circulars, subject to any change in the prescribed timeline in this regard. However, we cannot
assure you that the trading in our Equity Shares will commence in a timely manner or at all. Any failure or delay
in obtaining final listing and trading approvals may restrict your ability to dispose of your Equity Shares.

128BASIS FOR OFFER PRICE
The Price Band and Offer Price will be determined by our Company in consultation with the BRLM, and in
accordance with applicable law, on the basis of assessment of market demand for the Equity Shares offered
through the Book Building Process and quantitative and qualitative factors as described below. The face value of
the Equity Shares is ₹ 10 each and the Offer Price is [●] times the face value at the lower end of the Price Band
and [●] times the face value at the higher end of the Price Band. Investors should also refer to the sections “Risk
Factors”, “Our Business”, “Restated Standalone Financial Information” and “Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” beginning on pages 41, 178, 261 and 353,
respectively, to have an informed view before making an investment decision.
I. Qualitative Factors
Some of the qualitative factors which form the basis for the Offer Price are:
• India ranked 2nd in terms of Egg production in world (as per CRISIL report dated December, 2025) and
the Company has strategically entered into a partnership with “Bluejais” to enhance its market presence
in the poultry segment through marketing assistance. This collaboration reflects the approach of
leveraging external expertise and established networks to accelerate market penetration without requiring
proportionate capital investments. The partnership with Bluejais allows the Company to access
specialized knowledge and distribution channels in the poultry sector, enabling more effective
competition in this segment.
• India has significant livestock populations (as per CRISIL report dated December, 2025), with a
significant proportion located in rural areas and semi-urban districts that largely correspond to tier-2 and
tier-3 markets. Livestock ownership in these regions underpins recurring demand for veterinary
pharmaceuticals, including vaccines, antiparasitics, anti-infectives and nutritional supplements, given
the need for routine disease prevention and productivity enhancement. The scale and dispersion of
livestock populations support volume-driven demand outside metropolitan centres, making non-metro
markets structurally important for the veterinary pharmaceutical industry.
• Strong & stable financial conditions of the Company. Our revenue from operations has increased at a
CAGR of 21.89% from ₹ 716.13 million in Fiscal 2023 to ₹ 1,063.93 million in Fiscal 2025, and our
revenue from operations was ₹ 627.27 million for the period ended September 30, 2025.
• Uttar Pradesh has the largest livestock population in India and the demand for veterinary pharmaceutical
products in the state is directly linked to the size and health of this livestock population. We generate
approximately 38% of our revenue from Uttar Pradesh.

143ANNEXURE I
ANNEXURE ON THE STATEMENT OF SPECIAL DIRECT TAX BENEFITS AVAILABLE TO RODEC
PHARMA LIMITED AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS
The information provided below sets out the possible certain key direct tax benefits available to Rodec Pharma
Limited (“the Company”) and the shareholders of the Company in a summary manner only and is not a complete
analysis or listing of all potential tax consequences of the subscription, ownership and disposal of equity shares
of the Company, under the Income-tax Act, 1961 (“the Act”).
Several of these benefits are dependent on the Company/ shareholders fulfilling the conditions prescribed under
the Act. Hence, the ability of the Company/ shareholders to derive the tax benefits is dependent upon fulfilling
such conditions, which, based on business / commercial imperatives, the Company/ shareholders may or may not
choose to fulfil. We do not express any opinion or provide any assurance as to whether the Company/ shareholders
will continue to obtain these benefits in present or future. The following overview is not exhaustive or
comprehensive and is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice.
In view of the individual nature of the tax consequences and the changing tax laws, investors are advised to consult
their own tax consultants with respect to the specific tax implications arising out of their participation in the issue.
We are neither suggesting nor are we advising investors to invest money or not to invest money based on this
statement.
The statement below covers only certain relevant direct tax benefits and does not cover any indirect tax benefits
or benefits under any other law.
The statement outlined below is based on the provisions of the Act presently in force in India. The provisions of
the Income Tax Act, 1961 are amended by the Finance Bill, 2025 upon receipt of assent of President of India on
March 29, 2025 and the same be effective from such date. Certain key amendments as passed by Finance Act,
2025 are therefore considered.
I. Possible Special Tax Benefits available to the Company
1. Lower corporate tax rate under section 115BAA of the Act:
As per section 115BAA of the Act as inserted vide the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act, 2019 with effect
from FY 2019-20 relevant to AY 2020-21, a domestic company has an option to pay income tax in respect of
its total income at a concessional tax rate of 22% (plus surcharge of 10% and cess of 4%) provided the company
does not avail of specified exemptions/ incentives/ deductions or setoff of losses/ unabsorbed depreciation etc.
claims depreciation in the prescribed manner and complies with the other conditions specified in section
115BAA of the Act.
The total income of a company availing the concessional rate of 25.168% (i.e., 22% along with surcharge of
10% and health and education cess of 4%) is required to be computed without set-off of any carried forward
loss and depreciation attributable to any of the aforesaid deductions/incentives. A company can exercise the
option to apply for the concessional tax rate by filing Form No. 10-IC on or before the due date of filing return
of income under section 139(1) of the ITA. Further, provisions of Minimum Alternate Tax (‘MAT’) under
section 115JB of the ITA shall not be applicable to companies availing this reduced tax rate.
In case a company opts for section 115BAA of the Act, the provisions of Minimum Alternate Tax (“MAT”)
under section 115JB of the Act would not be applicable and MAT credit of the earlier year(s) will not be
available for set-off.
144The option needs to be exercised in the prescribed manner during a particular A.Y. on or before the due date
of filing the income-tax return for such A.Y. The option once exercised shall apply to subsequent A.Y.s and
cannot be subsequently withdrawn for the same or any other A.Y. Further, if the conditions mentioned in
section 115BAA of the Act are not satisfied in any A.Y., the option exercised shall become invalid in respect
of such A.Y. and subsequent A.Y.s, and the other provisions of the Act shall apply as if the option under section
115BAA had not been exercised. The company has opted Section 115BAA of the Act, for the purpose of
computing its income tax liability from Financial Year 2019-2020.
2. Deductions from Gross Total Income
Deduction in respect of employment of new employees – section 80JJAA of the Act:
As per section 80JJAA of the Act, while computing income under the head business and profession in case of
an assessee to whom section 44AB (i.e., tax audit) applies, a deduction of an amount equal to 30% of additional
employee cost incurred in the course of such business in the F.Y., shall be allowed for three A.Y.s including
the A.Y. relevant to the F.Y. in which such employment is provided. The Company is entitled to claim such
deduction subject to fulfilment of conditions specified under section 80JJAA of the Act even under the
concessional regime under section 115BAA of the Act.
Deduction in respect of inter-corporate dividends – section 80M of the Act:
Up to 31 March 2020, any dividend paid to a shareholder by a company was liable to payment of Dividend
Distribution Tax (“DDT”) by such company, and the dividend was exempt from tax in the hands of the recipient
shareholder. Pursuant to the amendment made by the Finance Act, 2020, DDT was abolished, and dividend
received by a shareholder on or after 1 April 2020 is liable to tax in the hands of the shareholder, other than
dividend on which tax under section 115-O has been paid.
With respect to a shareholder which is a domestic company as defined in section 2(22A) of the Act, section
80M inter alia provides that where the gross total income of a domestic company in any F.Y. includes any
income by way of dividends from any other domestic company or a foreign company or a business trust, there
shall, in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the said section, be allowed in computing the total
income of such domestic company, a deduction of an amount equal to so much of the amount of income by
way of dividends received from such other domestic company or foreign company or business trust as does
not exceed the amount of dividend distributed by it on or before the “due date”. For the purposes of the section,
“due date” means the date one month prior to the date for furnishing the income-tax return under section 139(1)
of the Act.
The Company is entitled to claim such deduction subject to fulfilment of conditions specified under section
80M of the Act even under the concessional regime under section 115BAA.
II. Possible Special Tax Benefits available to the shareholder
As per section 194 of the Act, the Company is required to deduct tax at source from the amount of dividend
paid to shareholders, except in the case of certain categories of shareholders as specified in the said section
which inter alia include individual shareholders receiving dividend not exceeding ₹ 10,000 (in aggregate
during a F.Y.) by any mode other than cash.
Further, as discussed above, subject to fulfilment of conditions, deduction shall be available under section 80M
of the Act to domestic corporate shareholders in respect of inter-corporate dividends.
145Section 2(42A) of the Act provides that securities (other than units) listed in a recognized stock exchange in
India that are held for not more than 12 months immediately preceding the date of its transfer, shall constitute
short-term capital assets.
As per Section 111A of the Act, short term capital gains arising from the transfer of an equity share shall be
taxed at 20% (plus applicable surcharge and cess) subject to fulfilment of prescribed conditions under the Act.
Further, as per section 112A of the Act, long-term capital gains exceeding ₹ 1,25,000 arising from the transfer
of equity shares in a company transacted through a recognized stock exchange on which STT has been paid
on acquisition (except in certain situations) and on transfer, shall be chargeable to tax at the rate of 12.5% (plus
applicable surcharge and cess) without applying the benefit under the first proviso to section 48 of the Act.
The condition of STT shall not apply to a transfer undertaken on a recognized stock exchange located in any
IFSC and where the consideration for such transaction is received or receivable in foreign currency.
Finance Act, 2023 has amended section 115BAC of the Act to provide that with effect from F.Y. 2023-24
relevant to A.Y. 2024-25, Individuals, HUF, Association of Persons (other than a co-operative society), Body
of Individuals and Artificial Juridical Person will be taxed on its total income at the reduced tax rates (‘Default
Tax Regime’) (to be reduced further by Finance Act, 2025 with some additional deductions with effect from
A.Y. 2026-27). The income would however have to be computed without claiming prescribed deductions or
exemptions.
Such person will however have the option to be taxed on its total income as per the tax rates under the old tax
regime. The option is required to be exercised – (i) on or before the due date specified under section 139(1) of
the Act for furnishing the income-tax return for such A.Y., in case of a person having income from business or
profession and such option once exercised shall apply to subsequent A.Y.s; or (ii) along with the income-tax
return to be furnished under section 139(1) of the Act for every A.Y. in case of a person not having income
from business or profession.
A person having income from business or profession who has exercised the option of shifting out of the Default
Tax Regime shall not be able to exercise the option of again opting out from the Default Tax Regime till he
has business income. However, a person not having income from business or profession shall be able to
exercise this option every year.
Notes:
1. This statement does not discuss any tax consequences arising in a country outside India pursuant to an
investment in the shares of the Company. The shareholders in the country outside India are advised to consult
their own professional advisors regarding the possible tax consequences that apply to them in such country

2. In respect of non-resident shareholders, the taxation and tax rates discussed above may be further subject to
any benefit available under the applicable Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement, if any, between India and
the country in which the non-resident has fiscal domicile. Applicability of DTAA benefit shall be subject to
furnishing of relevant documents/declarations viz. tax residency certificate, Form 10F, etc. by the non-resident
shareholders.

Macroeconomic overview
Global macroeconomic outlook
Global GDP estimated to grow 3.2% in CY25 and 3.1% in CY26
The International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) October 2025 update projected global gross domestic product (GDP)
to moderate from 3.3% in 2024 to 3.2% in 2025 and to 3.1% in 2026, with the slowdown reflecting headwinds
from uncertainty and protectionism, even though the tariff shock is smaller than originally announced.
After the United States introduced higher tariffs starting in February, subsequent deals and resets have tempered
some extremes. However, uncertainty about the stability and trajectory of the global economy remains acute.
Meanwhile, substantial cuts to international development aid and new restrictions on immigration have been rolled
out in some advanced economies. Several major economies have adopted a more stimulative fiscal stance, raising
concerns about the sustainability of public finances and possible cross-border spillovers.
Overall, risks to the outlook remain tilted to the downside. Prolonged policy uncertainty could dampen
consumption and investment. Further escalation of protectionist measures, including nontariff barriers, could
suppress investment, disrupt supply chains, and stifle productivity growth.
As per IMF’s October 2025 update, global GDP is expected to expand ~3.2% annually over the medium term
(2027-2029).

India is among the fastest-growing major economies
India is the world’s fourth-largest economy in 2025 and is growing faster than major global economies.
Advanced economies
• US: In the United States, growth is projected to slow to 2.0% in 2025 and remain steady at 2.1% in 2026, on
account of lower effective tariff rates, a fiscal boost from the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act
(OBBBA) and easing financial conditions. However, greater policy uncertainty, higher trade barriers, and
lower growth in both the labour force and employment exerted downward pressure of the growth.
• Euro area: Growth in the euro area is expected to pick up modestly to 1.2% in 2025 and to 1.1% in 2026
due to elevated uncertainty on multiple fronts and higher tariffs. However, recovering private consumption
from higher real wages and fiscal easing in Germany in 2026 is expected to provide a partial offset, whereas
strong performance in Ireland lifts growth in 2025. The euro area economy is expected to grow at potential
in 2026.
Emerging markets and developing economies
• China: In China, the 2025 GDP growth forecast stood at 4.8%. Growth is expected to moderate in 2026 to
4.2%. A stronger-than-expected outturn in the past few quarters, reflecting front-loading in international
trade and relatively robust domestic consumption supported by fiscal expansion in 2025, more than offset
the headwinds from higher uncertainty and tariffs.
• India^: In India, growth is projected to be 6.6% in 2025 and 6.2% in 2026, with carryover from a strong
first quarter more than offsetting the increase in the US effective tariff rate on imports from India since July.

Macroeconomic overview of India
GDP estimated at Rs. 188 trillion in fiscal 2025
India’s GDP grew to Rs 188 trillion in fiscal 2025 from Rs 98 trillion in fiscal 2014, clocking a 6.1% CAGR. A
key contributor to GDP growth during this period was the rise in private final consumption expenditure (PFCE),
which constitutes the largest share of GDP. The growth was further supported by expansion of the non-agricultural
economy, improvements in exports and an increase in government final consumption expenditure (GFCE).
According to provisional estimates (PE) for fiscal 2025, India's GDP is estimated to have grown at 6.5% in fiscal
2025, a moderation from the 9.2% growth recorded in fiscal 2024. Despite this deceleration, growth remained
close to the pre-pandemic decadal (fiscals 2011-2020) average of 6.6%, enabling India to retain its position as the
fastest-growing major economy.
150Frontrunning of exports to the US helped growth in the first half of this fiscal. However, in the second half, India’s
exports face headwinds from the current 50% US tariff rate. As a result, GDP growth is likely to moderate to 6.1%
in the second half, down from 8% in the first half. A trade agreement with the US, currently under negotiation,
could help mitigate some of this impact. Going forward, tax relief measures and the transmission of the RBI's rate
cuts are expected to be the primary drivers of growth for the remainder of the fiscal year. Nonetheless, building
on a stronger first half, Crisil projects GDP growth to reach 7.0% for the current fiscal year.

PFCE maintains a leading share in GDP, reflects sustained domestic demand
PFCE, defined as the expenditure incurred by the resident households and non-profit institutions serving
households (NPISH) on final consumption of goods and services, whether made within or outside the economic
territory, continues to be the largest component of India's GDP, with a 56.5% share in fiscal 2025. It logged a
CAGR of 6.1% between fiscals 2014 and 2025, mirroring the overall GDP growth rate during the period. It was
estimated at Rs 106.6 trillion in fiscal 2025 compared with Rs 55.6 trillion in fiscal 2014.
GFCF, which refers to aggregate of gross addition to the fixed assets (comprises of buildings, roads & bridges,
other construction, machinery equipment and transport equipment) in stocks during a period of account, had the
second highest contribution to the GDP at 33.7% in fiscal 2025.
GFCF was followed by Government final consumption expenditure (GFCE), which held the share of 9.1% in
fiscal 2025. GFCE is the final consumption expenditure of administrative departments and is equivalent to the
current expenditure on compensation of employees, purchase of non-durable goods and services net of sales and
the consumption of fixed capital (CFC). By convention, expenditure on durable goods, which are used for defence,
are also treated as part of consumption expenditure of the Government.

Assessment of Indian animal health market
Overview of animal health systems in India
The animal healthcare industry in India is a critical component of the country’s livestock and agricultural
ecosystem. India has about 536.8 million livestock, including 303.8 million bovines (Cattle, Buffalo, Mithun and
Yak), according to the 20th Livestock Census, and is the largest milk producer globally with a significant role in
meat and egg production. Animal healthcare supports livestock productivity, disease control, food safety, and
155rural livelihoods. The livestock sector contributes 5.5% to national GVA and 31.0% to the GVA of agriculture
and allied sectors (2023–24). It also supports more than 70.0% of poor rural households. These factors show the
need for a strong animal healthcare system to maintain income stability, food security, and sustainable agricultural
operations.

end-use segment focused on education, training, and scientific research. These institutions utilize
animal health products for experimental research, clinical evaluations, diagnostic training, and disease
studies.
• While this segment accounts for a relatively smaller share, it holds strategic importance for innovation,
product validation, and the development of best practices in animal health management.
Expansive public veterinary network- backbone of India’s animal health system
India has established a comprehensive public animal-health infrastructure that supports clinical care, preventive
services and field outreach for livestock and other animals. As of 31 March 2024, there were approximately 67,889
veterinary institutions nationwide, including 13,173 veterinary hospitals and polyclinics, 30,184 veterinary
dispensaries and 24,532 veterinary aid centres providing first-line health services across rural and urban areas.
Veterinary hospitals and polyclinics function as secondary-level facilities offering outpatient and inpatient care,
basic diagnostics, surgical services and vaccination programmes, while veterinary dispensaries and aid centres act
157as primary contact points delivering routine treatments, deworming, preventive immunization and extension
support to farmers. In addition to fixed facilities, many states operate Mobile Veterinary Units (MVUs) to bolster
outreach in remote and underserved regions under centrally supported schemes. Collectively, this layered network
is central to disease prevention and control, livestock productivity enhancement and early outbreak detection,
although variations in staffing, diagnostic capacity and equipment persist across states.

Key segments of India’s animal health ecosystem
India’s animal health industry comprises a diverse set of product and service categories that collectively support
the country’s vast livestock base and the fast-growing companion-animal segment. The ecosystem spans
pharmaceuticals, vaccines, feed and nutrition solutions, diagnostics, and an emerging layer of specialised
veterinary services and digital platforms. Each segment plays a distinct role in enhancing animal productivity,
preventing disease, improving on-farm efficiency, and strengthening food-safety outcomes. Together, these
segments form an integrated value chain that is becoming increasingly sophisticated as livestock systems
commercialise, disease-surveillance expectations rise, and pet-care expenditure expands across urban India.
Key segments in the animal health industry in India
Segments Overview
The pharmaceuticals segment constitutes most established part of India’s animal-
health industry, supplying a broad portfolio of therapeutic products including
antibiotics, antiparasitics, anthelmintics, anti-inflammatory agents, hormonal
Pharmaceuticals treatments, dermatologicals and nutraceuticals. The landscape is dominated by a mix
of large domestic pharmaceutical companies with veterinary divisions and specialised
veterinary-only manufacturers, supported by a strong base of generic formulation
capabilities. Product differentiation is driven by formulation innovation, dosing
convenience, animal-type specificity and service-led field extension. Growth is
supported by India’s substantial livestock base, increasing commercialisation of dairy
and poultry farms, and rising pet ownership, although pricing pressures and evolving
regulations on antimicrobial use shape competitive behaviour.
The vaccines segment is strategically critical for India due to the prevalence of
endemic livestock diseases and the government’s extensive disease-control
Vaccines
programmes. The market comprises live, inactivated and recombinant vaccines
targeting major diseases such as Foot and Mouth disease (FMD), Hemorrhagic
162Segments Overview
Septicaemia, Brucellosis, Classical Swine Fever, and poultry diseases including
Newcastle Disease and Infectious Bursal Disease. Several public and private
institutions manufacture vaccines at scale, supported by strong government
procurement, which creates stable demand and facilitates large-volume production
runs. Adoption is driven not only by public vaccination campaigns but also by large
dairy and poultry enterprises seeking to reduce mortality and ensure biosecurity. The
segment is steadily moving towards more advanced biologics and improved cold-chain
logistics, although dependence on government tenders and periodic disease outbreaks
creates variability in revenue flows.
Feed and feed-related activities are driven by the intensification of poultry, dairy and
aquaculture production. The segment covers commercial compound feed, premixes,
mineral mixtures, animal feed additives (such as enzymes, probiotics, amino acids and
Animal feed
toxin binders) and specialised nutrition solutions for calves, pets, piglets and
additives
aquaculture species. The ecosystem includes large national feed manufacturers,
multinational ingredient suppliers and strong regional players, alongside toll-
manufacturing networks. Growth is propelled by the shift from traditional, farm-mixed
feed to commercial, standardised formulations that improve feed conversion ratios and
animal productivity. As production systems modernise, the demand for high-
performance additives and customised feed solutions has expanded, making feed a
critical input segment that directly influences efficiency and output quality in livestock
value chains.
Diagnostics is an emerging but increasingly important segment as India transitions
towards more scientific, preventive and precision-driven livestock management. The
Diagnostics category encompasses laboratory-based tests (ELISA, culture, PCR), rapid point-of-
care kits for field use, reagents and veterinary diagnostic equipment. The service
landscape is a combination of state veterinary laboratories, research institutes, private
diagnostic chains, and on-farm diagnostic providers serving commercial poultry, dairy
and aquaculture farms. Historically underpenetrated, the segment is gaining traction
due to rising awareness of disease surveillance, the economic cost of outbreaks, and
the demand for early detection tools that reduce mortality in intensive production
systems. Adoption is strongest in poultry and high-value livestock operations, with
gradual penetration in smallholder systems supported by government surveillance
programmes and private enterprises offering bundled health-monitoring solutions.

Assessment of Indian veterinary pharmaceutical market
Overview of Indian veterinary pharmaceutical industry in India
The Indian veterinary pharmaceutical industry is a structurally important sub-segment of the broader animal health
market, underpinned by India’s large and economically significant livestock population and the sector’s role in
food security, rural incomes, and export competitiveness. The industry caters to therapeutics, vaccines, animal
feed additives, and biologicals across livestock (cattle, buffalo, poultry, swine) and companion animals, with
demand primarily driven by dairy and poultry. Growth is supported by rising milk and poultry output, increasing
disease awareness, expansion of organised dairy and integrator-led poultry systems, and gradual improvement in
veterinary infrastructure and vaccination coverage. Public-sector procurement (especially for vaccines and disease
control programs) continues to play a meaningful role, while private demand is expanding in therapeutics,
nutritional supplements, and preventive care.
Introduction to veterinary pharmaceuticals
Veterinary pharmaceuticals comprise medicinal products developed specifically for the prevention, diagnosis,
control, and treatment of diseases in animals. These products play a critical role in sustaining livestock
productivity, ensuring animal welfare, safeguarding food safety, and controlling zoonotic diseases. Unlike human
pharmaceuticals, veterinary medicines are designed for use across multiple animal species, each with distinct
physiology, metabolism, and use conditions.
1. Technical differences from human pharmaceuticals
• Multi-Species considerations - Veterinary drugs are developed with target species in mind (dogs, cattle,
poultry, etc.) because pharmacokinetics, metabolism, and safety vary by species. Human drug development
generally focuses only on human biology.
• Clinical evaluation and terminology - Veterinary clinical trials emphasize target-animal safety and
effectiveness, without the typical Phase I/II/III/IV labels used in human drug development. Safety and
effectiveness are directly assessed in the intended animal species rather than using multi-stage human trial
phases.
166• Informed consent & ethics – Human drug testing requires rigorous informed consent directly from
participants and strict oversight by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs)/Ethics Committees (ECs), adhering
to GCP guidelines and the Declaration of Helsinki. Whereas Veterinary Pharmaceuticals Relies on the
consent of the animal owner or caregiver (proxy consent). Ethical oversight is generally less stringent and
less harmonized, with potential variability in animal welfare enforcement.
• Administration and formulation - Veterinary pharmaceuticals often include medicated feed, water-soluble
powders, pour-ons, boluses, and large-dose formulations to accommodate herd/flock treatment and field
conditions. While not unique to veterinary medicine, these dosage forms are much more prevalent compared
with typical human pharmaceutical dosage formats.
• Economic and pricing considerations - Veterinary drugs must balance therapeutic efficacy with
affordability, particularly in livestock where return on investment is a key driver whereas human
pharmaceuticals are less directly linked to productivity economics.
2. Development and approval process
• Shorter and more focused development timelines - Clinical development is generally faster and less capital
intensive than human pharmaceuticals. Large-scale Phase I–IV human trials are not required.
• Market size & cost - Generally smaller market for veterinary pharmaceuticals, leading to leaner budgets and
a need for more fiscally prudent development strategies whereas in case of human pharmaceuticals larger
market size, allowing for extensive investment in R&D and clinical trials.
• Primary Regulatory Body – Human drug testing is regulated by Central Drugs Standard Control
Organization (CDSCO), headed by the DCGI and for veterinary pharmaceuticals are regulated by veterinary
division at CDSCO with input from the Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairying (DAHD).
3. End-Use orientation
• Food-producing animals - Emphasis on disease prevention, productivity enhancement, feed efficiency, and
food safety compliance.
• Companion animals - Growing focus on chronic disease management, dermatology, pain control, and
quality of life, increasingly resembling human therapeutic patterns.

167Structure and value chain of the Indian veterinary pharmaceutical market
Upstream inputs and research ecosystem
The upstream segment of the Indian veterinary pharmaceutical market includes suppliers of active pharmaceutical
ingredients (APIs), excipients and biological inputs, which are sourced from both domestic manufacturers and
imports. Product research and development is undertaken by veterinary pharmaceutical companies and is
significantly supported by public research institutions. The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) and
its specialised institutes, including the Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI) and veterinary universities,
play an important role in disease surveillance, strain development, diagnostic validation and field-level evaluation
of veterinary products.
Regulatory oversight and quality standards
Regulation and policy oversight of veterinary pharmaceuticals in India are anchored within the Department of
Animal Husbandry and Dairying (DAHD), along with relevant central and state authorities. The regulatory
framework focuses on product safety, efficacy, quality, withdrawal periods and residue control in food-producing
animals. Compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and quality testing requirements is a critical
component, particularly for vaccines and biologicals, which are subject to higher biosecurity and cold-chain
standards.
Manufacturing and formulation
Manufacturing activities are carried out by a combination of large integrated animal health companies and a broad
base of small and mid-sized domestic manufacturers. The sector covers the production of chemical formulations,
vaccines and other biological products. Vaccine manufacturing is relatively more capital intensive and requires
specialised facilities, batch testing and temperature-controlled handling. Contract manufacturing is also prevalent,
particularly for formulations.
Distribution and institutional channels
The downstream distribution structure is characterised by a multi-tier network comprising national distributors,
regional stockists and local dealers. In addition to commercial distribution, institutional channels play a material
role, particularly government procurement for animal disease control and vaccination programmes. Medicated
animal feed additives are often distributed through feed and premix manufacturers, reflecting close integration
with the animal feed industry.
Veterinary services and end-user interface
The last-mile delivery of veterinary pharmaceuticals is facilitated through government veterinary dispensaries,
private veterinary clinics, para-veterinary workers and extension services. These channels serve a diverse end-
user base including livestock farmers, poultry and dairy integrators, aquaculture operators and companion animal
owners. Demand dynamics vary across segments, with livestock healthcare being largely price-sensitive and
companion animal healthcare exhibiting higher value and margin characteristics.

Key trends in the Indian veterinary pharmaceutical market with focus on tier-2 and tier-3 markets
• Large and geographically dispersed livestock base driving sustained demand - India has one of the
world’s largest livestock populations, with a significant proportion located in rural areas and semi-urban
districts that largely correspond to tier-2 and tier-3 markets. Livestock ownership in these regions underpins
recurring demand for veterinary pharmaceuticals, including vaccines, antiparasitics, anti-infectives and
nutritional supplements, given the need for routine disease prevention and productivity enhancement. The
scale and dispersion of livestock populations support volume-driven demand outside metropolitan centres,
making non-metro markets structurally important for the veterinary pharmaceutical industry.
170• Increasing commercialisation of dairy and poultry farming in non-metro regions - Dairy and poultry
farming in India has seen increasing levels of commercialisation, particularly in smaller cities and rural
districts. Growth in organised and semi-organised poultry units and small commercial dairy farms in tier-2
and tier-3 regions has resulted in greater adoption of veterinary drugs and vaccines, especially for disease
prevention, herd health management and productivity improvement. This shift has supported rising
penetration of veterinary pharmaceuticals beyond traditional institutional buyers, expanding the addressable
market in non-metro geographies.
• Rising penetration of companion animal healthcare beyond metropolitan cities - Pet ownership in India
has increased over recent years, with growth not limited to metropolitan areas. Tier-2 and tier-3 cities are
witnessing a gradual increase in demand for companion animal healthcare products, including veterinary
pharmaceuticals, vaccines and supplements, supported by rising disposable incomes and greater awareness
of pet health. While per-capita spending in these markets remains lower than in tier-1 cities, the expanding
pet base contributes to incremental demand growth for companion animal-focused veterinary products in
smaller urban centres.
• Government focus on livestock health and vaccination programmes - The Government of India and state
governments continue to implement livestock health and vaccination programmes aimed at disease control
and productivity enhancement. Such programmes are largely targeted at rural and semi-urban regions, which
constitute the bulk of tier-2 and tier-3 markets. Public procurement of vaccines and essential veterinary drugs
under these schemes contributes to demand visibility and volume stability for certain product categories,
particularly vaccines and preventive therapeutics.
• Adoption of technology-enabled veterinary services in underserved regions - Technology-enabled
solutions such as tele-veterinary consultations, digital advisory platforms and mobile health initiatives are
increasingly being used to address gaps in veterinary service availability. These solutions can facilitate access
to veterinary advice and support product usage in tier-2 and tier-3 markets, although adoption levels remain
at an early stage and vary by region.

regulatory approved drug lists, and tightening scrutiny—especially for antibiotics and
framework biologicals—increase compliance costs, approval timelines, and uncertainty in product
launches.
India is confronted with a significant disparity in the livestock-to-veterinarian ratio,
characterized by a pronounced shortage of veterinary professionals in rural areas.
According to the Indian Veterinary Practitioners' Register (as of February 24, 2024),
there are 87,914 registered veterinarians. In contrast, the country's livestock population

Regulatory framework governing veterinary pharmaceuticals in India
The manufacture, import, distribution and sale of veterinary pharmaceutical products in India are governed
primarily by the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 and the Drugs Rules, 1945, which regulate drugs for both human
and veterinary use. Regulatory oversight at the central level is exercised by the Central Drugs Standard Control
Organisation (CDSCO) under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, headed by the Drugs Controller General
of India (DCGI). CDSCO is responsible for approval of new veterinary drugs, issuance of import and select
manufacturing permissions, publication of regulatory notifications and amendments, and national-level quality
surveillance through drug testing laboratories.
Policy formulation, sector-specific guidance and coordination relating to animal health are undertaken by the
Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairying (DAHD) under the Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and
Dairying. DAHD plays a critical role in issuance of Standard Veterinary Treatment Guidelines (SVTG),
coordination and oversight of field trials for veterinary pharmaceutical products, and alignment of regulatory
practices with national animal health priorities, including antimicrobial resistance (AMR) mitigation. Introduction
of new veterinary vaccines, biologicals or therapeutic indications typically involves coordination between
CDSCO and DAHD, particularly where field evaluation or large-scale deployment is involved.
Licensing for manufacture, sale and distribution of veterinary pharmaceuticals is administered by State Drug
Control Authorities, which are responsible for granting and renewing manufacturing and sales licences,
conducting inspections, sampling and testing of products, and enforcing compliance under the Drugs and
Cosmetics Act. Professional conduct and prescribing practices are regulated by the Veterinary Council of India
(VCI), which governs veterinary education, practitioner registration and ethical standards.
The regulatory framework also interfaces with food safety authorities, including the Food Safety and Standards
Authority of India (FSSAI), particularly in relation to drug residue limits, withdrawal periods and food safety
compliance for veterinary drugs used in food-producing animals. Compliance with residue and withdrawal
requirements is critical for safeguarding public health and maintaining domestic and export market access for
animal-origin food products.
In recent years, regulatory authorities have intensified scrutiny on the manufacture and use of veterinary
pharmaceuticals, particularly antibiotics, in response to national and global concerns around antimicrobial
resistance. CDSCO has issued notifications restricting or prohibiting certain antimicrobials for veterinary use,
while DAHD has strengthened stewardship through treatment guidelines, surveillance and rational-use initiatives.
These developments may impact product approvals, continued marketing permissions, labelling requirements and
172portfolio composition for participants in the Indian veterinary pharmaceutical market.
A central element underpinning the entire regulatory framework is Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). GMP
requirements, prescribed primarily under Schedule M of the Drugs Rules, 1945, are mandatory for manufacturers
of veterinary pharmaceutical formulations and constitute a prerequisite for the grant and renewal of manufacturing
licences by State Drug Control Authorities. GMP standards govern manufacturing processes, raw material
controls, in-process quality checks, batch documentation, sanitation, personnel qualification, storage, stability
testing and recall mechanisms. Compliance with GMP is subject to periodic inspection and audit by state
regulators and, in certain cases, by CDSCO.
Non-compliance with GMP standards may result in regulatory actions including classification of products as “not
of standard quality”, mandatory recalls, suspension or cancellation of manufacturing licences, and restrictions on
domestic sales or exports. Accordingly, sustained compliance with evolving GMP requirements is integral to
regulatory standing, operational continuity and risk management for companies operating in the Indian veterinary
pharmaceutical market.

OUR STRENGTHS
Our competitive positioning in the veterinary pharmaceutical industry is underpinned by several distinctive
strengths that we have cultivated over 28 years of operations:
1. Established Track Record and Market Credibility: With over 28 years of operational experience since our
incorporation in 1997, we have built confidence and reliability within the veterinary healthcare ecosystem. Our
market presence has expanded over the years, growing from our founding base in western Uttar Pradesh to
operations across 15 states through consignee agents and stockists (in the state of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand)
and VSR. This longevity demonstrates our ability to navigate market cycles, adapt to industry dynamics, and
deliver value to our stakeholders. This growth was validated by our achievement of the ₹1,000 million revenue
milestone in Fiscal 2025. Our sustained presence in the market has enabled us to develop knowledge, understand
customer needs, and build relationships with veterinarians, consignee agents, stockists and livestock farmers. This
track record serves as a competitive moat, demonstrated by: (1) our portfolio of veterinary pharmaceutical
products comprising 35 products and its 29 variants, across categories including antibiotics, analgesics &
antipyretics, animal feed supplements among others; and (2) as on December 31, 2025, our distribution network
of 13 consignee agents, 401 stockists and 416 VSR spread across 15 states. This combination of geographic reach
through consignee agents and stockists network, product portfolio, and collaborations creates a competitive
advantage in an industry where trust and reliability are considerations in product selection decisions.
1812. Comprehensive Product Portfolio: We have developed a portfolio of veterinary pharmaceutical drugs and
animal feed supplements of 35 products and its 29 variants, spanning multiple categories including antibiotics,
antispasmodic, ecto parasiticide, animal feed supplements among others. This breadth of offerings enables us to
serve as a comprehensive solutions provider to our customers, addressing diverse animal healthcare needs through
a single relationship. Our product focus shows our knowledge of veterinary pharmaceutical products and our
ability to develop products as per customer requirements. The diversity of our portfolio also provides revenue
diversification and reduces dependence on any single product. Product-wise revenue bifurcation is provided herein
below for the period ended September 30, 2025, and for the financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31,

186OUR STRATEGIES
1. Market Reach Expansion and distribution network strengthening: We are committed to expanding our
geographical footprint and deepening market penetration in existing territories. Our expansion strategy focuses
on entering under-penetrated states where livestock population is substantial but access to quality veterinary
products remain limited. We plan to identify and onboard additional consignee agents, VSR and stockists in the

finished products.
Manufacturing process flow chart
198PROCESS FLOW DESCRIPTION
The Company is engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of animal feed supplement products across the
following three distinct categories:
➢ Oral and Gel liquid suspensions, which are designed for ease of administration and enhanced bio-availability
in animals.
➢ Oral boluses, sustained-release solid dosage forms that provide controlled delivery of active pharmaceutical
ingredients.
➢ Powder formulations, which offer versatility in dosing and can be administered through feed or water
systems.
These three product lines enable the Company to serve a diverse range of animal feed supplements and meet the
varied needs of the veterinary healthcare market.
Manufacturing of Oral and Gel liquid suspensions
Mixing Storage Packing
The Company manufactures oral and gel liquid suspensions through a defined process across three stages: mixture
in manufacturing tanks, storage, and packaging through liquid filling line.
Mixing: The manufacturing process begins in a manufacturing tank wherein water, adhesives, supplements and
preservatives are mixed.
Storage: The liquid from the manufacturing tank is transferred to the storage tank with the help of a transfer
pump.
Packing: The liquid is thereafter transferred to a liquid line which dispenses the liquid in the desired bottle size
after which the bottle is capped and labelled.

Manufacturing of Oral Boluses
The Company manufactures oral boluses through a multi-stage process involving, mixing, granualisation, drying,
blending and packaging.
Mixture Granualation Drying Blending
Packing
200Mixture: All powdered raw material and active raw material, adhesives and preservatives are mixed in a mass
mixture which continues till the granules are formed.
Granulation: Granulation is an essential process, in which primary powder particles adhere to each other,
resulting in larger granules. This is an important step in the production of tablets/ bolus.
Drying: The wet granules are thereafter dried by passing them through a multimill and finally drying in a Fluid
Bed Dryer. The basic process involves placing wet granules, powders, or particles on mesh through which hot air
is circulated ensuring uniform drying of the material.
Blending: The dried granules are transferred to an ‘Octagonal Blender’ wherein additional lubricants are added,
sealed and rotated. As it rotates the octagonal geometry causes the materials to stumble and outpour in multiple
directions, creating a gentle yet thorough mixing action till the blending process is completed. Thereafter, the
granules are compressed into boluses of predetermined weight using a rotary machine.
Packaging: The manufactured boluses are thereafter processed through strip blister foil packing machines, where
appropriate labelling and packaging is completed prior to distribution through our sales channels.

Manufacturing of Powder formulations
Sifting Mixing Packaging
The Company manufactures powder formulations through a process involving sifting, mixing, and packaging.
Sifting: All raw material powders are individually passed through the vibro sifter, one by one, to ensure uniform
particle size. The vibro sifter consists of one or more mesh screens (sieves) stacked in a circular frame and operated
by an electric motor that generates rapid vibrations, allowing particles smaller than the mesh openings to pass
201through while retaining and separately discharging oversized particles. After sifting, each material is transferred
to the mass mixer.
Mixing: The mass mixer is then operated for approx.30 minutes to achieve thorough and uniform mixing.
Packaging: Following the mixing process, the final powder is discharged and packaged into packets of
predetermined weight specifications.
Process Characteristics
The manufacturing process flow demonstrates several key features:
• Parallel Processing Capability: Multiple production lines operate simultaneously to maximize output
• Quality Integration: Quality checks are embedded at critical points (input and output stages)
• Format Flexibility: The facility can produce multiple product formats (liquid, powder, and various bolus
forms)
• Centralized Testing: All products gathered at the laboratory regardless of their production line, ensuring
consistent quality standards
• Controlled Flow: Clear progression from raw materials through processing to finished goods storage
• Packing: The Company utilizes various packaging materials categorized as follows:
❖ for liquid products - plastic and aluminium bottles;
❖ for powder products - HDPE bags, LD bags, and 5 kg plastic containers;
❖ for boluses – strip and blister foil packaging with plastic boxes;
Other packaging materials including cartons, inner and outer covers, labels, blister PVC film, cold glue, printed
and polyester laminate pouches, BOPP self-adhesive materials, and aluminium foil.
THIRD PARTY MANUFACTURERS
In addition to manufacturing animal feed supplements in our own Manufacturing Facility, we also trade in
veterinary pharmaceutical drugs for which we rely on third party manufacturers. This approach enables us to
optimise capacity utilisation, expand our product range, and ensure flexibility in responding to market demand.
As on December 31, 2025 we had formal arrangements with 11 third-party manufacturers, across India. These
arrangements are an integral part of our business model which allow us to utilise our manufacturing capacities
while maintaining a diversified product base.
We choose our third-party manufacturers on various parameters, including but not limited to, manufacturing
capabilities, compliance with drug authorities and cost effectiveness. We typically enter into third-party
manufacturing agreements for periods of two to five years. We provide formulations of the prescribed drugs to
these third-party manufacturers based on product demand and subsequently, the third-party manufacturers submits
these formulations with the Drug Authorities for their approval. Thereafter, upon receipt of the approval these
manufacturers procure raw materials from their vendors and commence production of the drugs.
As per our arrangements with these manufacturers, we also depute our representatives at their respective facility
to inspect, examine, analyse, and check the quality/quantity of the raw and packaging materials, finished products,
manufacturing and packing process. This oversight framework enables us to maintain consistent product quality
and mitigate operational and regulatory risks associated with outsourced manufacturing.
The finished products are packed in designated packaging bearing the Company's name and dispatched to the
registered office of the Company. As per the agreements executed with the third-party manufacturers, they are
solely liable and responsible for any manufacturing defect of the product without being eligible for indemnity and
without prejudice to the rights of the Company.

207MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION
Our marketing strategy is based on a customer engagement model that emphasizes continuous interaction with
customers through information dissemination, responsive service delivery, and sustained communication
throughout the customer lifecycle. We focus on educational engagement and long-term customer relationship
development.
We recognize that the veterinary pharmaceutical sector requires a consultative sales methodology, wherein
technical knowledge of product formulations, supporting clinical evidence, and continuous customer support are
equally critical as product accessibility. Our approach is designed to address the nature of veterinary
pharmaceutical products, which necessitates comprehensive technical expertise and ongoing engagement with
veterinary professionals and animal health stakeholders.

geographies with varying livestock populations, farming practices, and veterinary care infrastructure.
1. Consignee Agents
Our distribution network operates through a structured hierarchy of consignee agents who function under formal
agreements. These agreements clearly define commercial terms including pricing, credit policies, territory
allocation and reporting responsibilities.
2. Stockists
Stockists act as local distribution hubs who purchase our products in bulk either from the Company or from the
Consignee Agents and thereafter store them in their own warehouses. Subsequently, they supply products to
retailers and healthcare providers in their respective territories.
3. Veterinary Sales Representatives
We deploy a team of Veterinary Sales Representatives to promote and sale the products of our Company to the
end-users including veterinarians, veterinary hospitals, animal healthcare providers, and progressive livestock

The statements below are based on the current provisions of Indian law, and the judicial, regulatory and
administrative interpretations thereof, which are subject to change or modification by legislative, regulatory,
administrative, quasi-judicial or judicial decisions/actions.
INDUSTRY SPECIFIC REGULATIONS
Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 & Rules 1945
The Drugs and Cosmetics Act (DCA) oversee the import, manufacturing, distribution, and sale of drugs and
cosmetics across India, including regulations related to labeling, packaging, and testing. It establishes the
procedures for the testing and licensing of new drugs and restricts the import of certain categories of drugs and
cosmetics. The Act requires all license holders to maintain prescribed records, registers, and documents, which
are subject to inspection by authorized officials. Additionally, the government can, through official notification,
regulate or ban the manufacture, sale, or distribution of any drug if it deems it necessary for public safety, if the
drug poses risks to humans or animals, lacks the claimed therapeutic value, or contains unjustified ingredients or
quantities. Violations of the Act's provisions can result in penalties, including fines and imprisonment.
The Drugs and Cosmetics Rules, 1945 (DCA Rules) were established to implement the provisions of the Drugs
and Cosmetics Act (DCA) and regulate the manufacture, distribution, and sale of drugs and cosmetics in India.
These rules outline the process for submitting drug samples to the Central Drugs Laboratory for analysis or testing,
including the format of the laboratory reports and the fees associated with these services. The rules also specify
which drugs or categories of drugs and cosmetics require an import license, along with the form and conditions
of such licenses. Additionally, the DCA Rules provide for the cancellation or suspension of licenses if any
regulations related to drug and cosmetic imports are violated or if the license conditions are not met. Furthermore,
the rules establish guidelines for the labelling and packaging of drugs.
Good Manufacturing Practice Guidelines (GMP)
These guidelines cover all aspects of the manufacturing process, from the raw materials, facilities, and equipment
to the training and hygiene of personnel. The objective of GMP is to minimize risks involved in pharmaceutical
production that cannot be eliminated through testing the final product alone. In India, GMP guidelines are
prescribed under Schedule M of the Drugs and Cosmetics Rules, 1945, which mandates strict adherence to quality
control, documentation, validation, and standard operating procedures. Compliance with GMP is essential for
obtaining manufacturing licenses and for ensuring that medicines are safe, effective, and of high quality before
they reach consumers. Regulatory authorities conduct regular inspections to enforce GMP compliance and
maintain public health safety.
216Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954
The Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Act, 1954 is an important legislation aimed at
regulating the advertising of drugs and remedies to protect consumers from misleading claims. The Act prohibits
advertisements that promote drugs or remedies claiming to have magical or miraculous properties for curing
certain diseases and conditions, including both human and veterinary ailments. It seeks to prevent false or
exaggerated claims that could mislead the public about the effectiveness or safety of a product. The Act specifies
a list of diseases and conditions for which advertising claims are strictly prohibited. Violations can lead to
penalties such as fines and imprisonment. By regulating advertisements, the Act aims to ensure truthful
information reaches consumers, thereby safeguarding public health and promoting ethical marketing practices in
the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors.
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960
The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960 provides for the prevention of infliction of unnecessary pain or
suffering on animals and establishes the Animal Welfare Board of India to promote animal welfare measures. The
Act regulates the use of animals for experimentation, research, transport, and housing, and prescribes standards
to ensure humane treatment. In the context of the pharmaceutical industry, the Act, read with the Breeding of and
Experiments on Animals (Control and Supervision) Rules, 1998, governs the use of animals in pre-clinical
research and testing, which requires prior approval from the Committee for the Purpose of Control and Supervision
of Experiments on Animals (CPCSEA).
Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985
The Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985 provides for the control and regulation of operations
relating to narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, including their manufacture, possession, sale, transport,
import, export, and use. The Act aims to prevent misuse and illicit trafficking of such substances while permitting
their use for medical and scientific purposes under strict supervision. It empowers the Central Government to
regulate, license, and monitor activities involving controlled substances and prescribes stringent penalties for
violations. The Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Rules, 1985 framed under the Act govern the
licensing, record-keeping, and reporting requirements for entities handling such substances.
Breeding of and Experiments on Animals (Control and Supervision) Rules, 1998 (as amended 2001, 2006,
2017)
These regulations are crucial for veterinary drug manufacturing companies, as they govern the ethical standards
for animal testing in the development and safety evaluation of veterinary pharmaceuticals. Compliance with these
rules promotes public trust in the safety and efficacy of veterinary medicines. Key provisions of the Rules include
the establishment of Institutional Animal Ethics Committees (IAECs) to review and approve research protocols,
mandatory registration of establishments involved in breeding or experimentation, and stringent guidelines for
animal care and housing. Additionally, the 2006 amendment emphasized humane practices during experiments,
including the use of anaesthesia and the humane euthanasia of animals experiencing severe pain. The 2017
amendment further reinforced these ethical considerations, ensuring that the welfare of animals remains a central
concern in scientific research.
217New Drugs and Clinical Trials Rules, 2019
The New Drugs and Clinical Trials Rules (NDCT Rules), 2019, aim to streamline and enhance the regulatory
framework for clinical trials and new drug approvals. Under these rules, the Drugs Controller General of India
(DCGI) serves as the Central Licensing Authority, overseeing the approval process. The NDCT Rules define a
"new drug" to include novel formulations, fixed-dose combinations, and biologics such as vaccines and gene
therapies. They mandate that all clinical trials and bioavailability/bioequivalence studies be conducted only after
obtaining approval from a registered Ethics Committee, which must adhere to Good Clinical Practice (GCP)
guidelines. The rules also stipulate that compensation be provided to trial participants in cases of injury or death
related to the study, with the quantum determined by the DCGI. Notably, the NDCT Rules allow for the waiver
of local clinical trials for new drugs that are already approved and marketed in specified countries, provided certain
conditions are met.
CPCSEA Guidelines (by Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry & Dairying)
The Committee for the Purpose of Control and Supervision of Experiments on Animals (CPCSEA), established
under India's Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960, regulates animal research to ensure ethical standards.
It mandates that all institutions conducting animal experiments form an Institutional Animal Ethics Committee
(IAEC), comprising biological scientists, veterinarians, and a socially aware member. The IAEC reviews and
approves research protocols, ensuring adherence to the 3Rs—Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement—to
minimize animal use and suffering. For experiments involving large animals, approval from CPCSEA is required.
Additionally, CPCSEA enforces guidelines on animal housing, care, and euthanasia, and conducts regular
inspections to ensure compliance. The committee also promotes the use of non-animal alternatives and provides
training on humane research practices.
Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission (IPC)
The Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission (IPC), established under the Pharmacopoeia Commission Act, 1956, is
the national authority responsible for setting standards of drugs and pharmaceutical substances in India. The IPC
publishes the Indian Pharmacopoeia (IP), which prescribes the identity, purity, strength, and quality specifications
for drugs, pharmaceutical substances, excipients, and dosage forms. It also monitors the implementation of
pharmacopoeial standards and conducts research for the update and harmonization of drug standards in line with
international guidelines.
The Legal Metrology Act, 2009 and Legal Metrology (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 2011 (“LM Rules”)
The Legal Metrology Act, 2009 Act which was brought in force in 2009 repealed and replaced the Standard of
Weights and Measures Act, 1976 and the Standards of Weights and Measures (Enforcement) Act, 1985. The Act
was enacted for establishing and enforcing uniform standards of weights and measures in order to regulate trade
and commerce in weights, measures and other goods which are sold or distributed by weight, measure or number.
Under the Act, every manufacturer/ importer is required to obtain the prior approval of the model of a weight or
a measure from the competent authority before manufacturing or importing products/ goods, etc. which are sold
or distributed by weight, measure or number. The Act further empowers the Central government to enact rules to
carry out the provisions of the Act. In this regard, the LM Rules were framed which lays down specific provisions
governing the packaging and labelling of commodities. These rules are applicable to packages intended for retail
sale, wholesale packages and for export of packaged commodities and registration of manufacturers, packers and
importers. Also, States may frame State specific rules under the Act to provide for the time limits for verification
of weights and measures, maintenance of registers and records, stipulating the manner of notifying government
authorities, fees for compounding of offences etc. Further, the Legal Metrology (Government Approved Test
Centre) Rules, 2013 have laid down specifications regarding verification of weights and measures specified
therein by Government approved test centres.
218Solid Waste Management Rules, 2016
These rules govern the management of solid waste and apply to every urban and industrial entity generating waste.
This legislation mandates a structured approach to waste management, requiring segregation of waste at the
source, proper storage, and its transfer to designated facilities for processing and disposal. We are required to
comply with these rules by ensuring the scientific handling of the solid waste generated from our operations.
Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016
The rules impose a principle of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), making producers, importers, and brand
owners responsible for the collection and processing of their plastic waste. Our company is required to comply
with these rules by ensuring the scientific management of all plastic waste generated from our operations and
establishing a system for its collection and channelization to authorized recyclers or processors.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY LAWS
Information Technology Act, 2000 (“IT Act”)
The IT Act of India serves as the primary legal framework for electronic transactions and cyber activities. It grants
legal validity to digital interactions through provisions for authenticating electronic documents via digital
signatures. The IT Act also establishes both civil and criminal liabilities, including penalties and imprisonment,
for various cybercrimes such as unauthorized access to computer systems, illicit disclosure of confidential data,
and online fraud. A significant 2008 amendment reinforced the legal enforceability of contracts formed
electronically. Additionally, the IT Act imposes accountability for negligence in safeguarding sensitive personal
data, while simultaneously offering legal protection to intermediaries (like internet service providers or social
media platforms) for third-party content they host or transmit.
Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act)
The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 provides for the processing of digital personal data in a manner
that recognises both the right of individuals to protect their personal data and the need to process such personal
data for lawful purposes and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto. The DPDP Act seeks to balance
the rights of individuals to protect their personal data with the need to process personal data for lawful and other
incidental purposes. The DPDP Act provides that personal data may be processed only for a lawful purpose after
obtaining the consent of the individual.

Factories Act, 1948
The Factories Act, 1948 is a key piece of Indian labour legislation that governs occupational health, safety, and
welfare in manufacturing facilities. It applies to premises where a manufacturing process is carried out with the
aid of power and employing 10 or more workers or without power with 20 or more workers thus covering a wide
range of industrial setups including pharmaceutical manufacturing units. The Act mandates safe and hygienic
working conditions including adequate lighting, ventilation, sanitation, and drinking water and comprehensive
welfare facilities such as first-aid, canteens, restrooms, crèches for women employees, and seating for workers
who stand. It strictly regulates working hours, capping them at 48 hours per week and 9 hours per day for adult
workers, enforces overtime rates, ensures weekly holidays, and prohibits employment of minors under 14 years
while safeguarding adolescent and female workers with specific protections. Enforcement lies with state-level
factory inspectorates empowered to conduct inspections, issue improvement notices, and enforce compliance.
Penalties for violations range from fines to imprisonment, particularly in cases involving safety lapses or
hazardous processes. While the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 is intended to
eventually consolidate this framework, the Factories Act remains in force until full implementation.
Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991
The Public Liability Insurance Act (PLIA), 1991 mandates that any business handling hazardous substances must
obtain and continually renew a liability insurance policy to cover harm to the public or property in case of
accidents. Operating on a principle of no-fault liability, the Act ensures swift compensation without victims
needing to prove negligence. It also requires a portion of the insurance premium be directed toward an
Environmental Relief Fund, which provides an additional layer of support if damages exceed the insured amount.
Claims are administered through the District Collector, who verifies incidents and issues compensation orders.
Non-compliance carries significant penalties, including heavy fines (up to ₹1 lakh) and imprisonment for repeat
offenders, to encourage rigorous safety adherence.
220The Code on Wages, 2019

The Act requires an employer to set up an “Internal Complaints Committee” at each office or branch of an
organization employing at least 10 employees. The Government is required to set up a “Local Complaints
Committee” at the district level to investigate complaints regarding sexual harassment from establishments where
internal complaints committee has not been constituted.
Shops and Commercial Establishment Act, 1962
The Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, enacted by individual states, governs labour standards in shops,
offices, hotels, restaurants, and other non-industrial workplaces, excluding factories covered by separate
legislation. Under this Act, all covered establishments must register within 30 days of starting operations. Key
employee protections include maximum working hours of 9 hours/day and 48 hours/week, mandatory rest

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAWS
The Patents Act, 1970 (“Patents Act”)
The Patents Act governs the registration and protection of patents in India. In addition to the broad requirement
that an invention satisfy the requirements of novelty, utility and non-obviousness in order for it to avail patent
protection, the Patents Act also provides that patent protection may not be granted to certain specified types of
inventions and materials even if they satisfy the above criteria. The Patents Act also prohibits any person resident

India. The term of a patent granted under the Patents Act is for a period of twenty years from the date of filing
of the application for the patent.
The Trade Marks Act, 1999 (“Trade Marks Act”)
The Trade Marks Act governs the statutory protection of trademarks and prevents the use of fraudulent marks
in India. The Trade Marks Act prohibits any registration of deceptively similar trademarks. An application for
registration of a trademark may be made by an individual or joint applicants and can be made on the basis of
either use or intention to use a trademark in the future. Once granted, trademark registration is valid for ten
years, unless cancelled. If not renewed after ten years, the mark lapses and the registration has to be restored.

(ROC), Delhi, under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. Subsequently, the name of the Company was
changed from “Rodec Pharmaceuticals Private Limited” to “Rodec Pharma Private Limited” on January 16, 2024.
Thereafter, pursuant to a special resolution passed by the shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting held
on March 18, 2024, the Company was converted from a private limited company to a public limited company. A
fresh certificate of incorporation consequent upon the change of name from Rodec Pharma Private Limited to
Rodec Pharma Limited (“the Company”) was issued by the ROC on June 19, 2024. At that time, the Company’s
Corporate Identity Number (CIN) was U24233DL1997PLC090729.
The registered office of the Company was situated at F-46, Pankaj Central Market, I.P. Extension, Patparganj,

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
2.1 Basis of Preparation
(a) Statement of Compliance
The Restated Standalone Financial Information comprise the Restated Standalone Statement of Asset and
Liabilities as at September 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, the Restated
Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), for the period ended September

Restated Standalone Financial Information, Statement of Restated Adjustments to the Audited Financial
Information and Notes to the Restated Standalone Financial Information (collectively, the “Restated Standalone
275Financial Information”). The Restated Standalone Financial Information of the Company have been prepared to
comply in all material respects with the Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind AS”) as prescribed under Section 133
of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time),
presentation requirements of Division II of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, as applicable to the Restated
Standalone Financial Information and other relevant provisions of the Act. These Restated Standalone Financial
Information have been prepared by the management as required under the Securities and Exchange Board of India
(Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2018, as amended (“ICDR Regulations”) issued by
the Securities and Exchange Board of India ('SEBI'), in pursuance of the Securities and Exchange Board of India
Act, 1992, for the purpose of inclusion in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus (“DRHP”) in connection with the
proposed initial public offering, prepared by the Company in terms of the requirements of :
a) Section 26 of Part I of Chapter III of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")
b) The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations,
2018 as amended; and
c) The Guidance Note on Reports in Company Prospectuses (Revised 2019) issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India (ICAI) (the “Guidance Note”).
These Restated Standalone Financial Information have been compiled from the audited financial statements as at
and for the financial period ended September 30, 2025 & financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024
and March 31, 2023 which have been approved by the Board of Directors in their meeting held on December 27,
2025, September 02, 2025, August 24, 2024 and August 25, 2023 respectively.
The Company has decided to voluntarily adopt Indian Accounting Standards notified under Section 133 of the
Companies Act 2013, read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended from time to
time and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. For the purpose of the preparation of Restated
Standalone Financial Statement for the period ended September 30, 2025 and financial years ended March 31,
2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 of the Company, the transition date is considered as April 01, 2023.
Accordingly, the Company has applied the same accounting policy and accounting policy choices (both mandatory
exceptions and optional exemptions availed as per Ind AS 101, as applicable) as on April 01, 2023.
(b) Basis of Measurement
The Restated Standalone Financial Information have been prepared on a historical cost basis except certain items
that are measured at fair value as explained in accounting policies.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell 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 leasing transactions that
are within the scope of Ind AS 116 – Leases, and measurements.
2.2 Investment in Associates
The Company has presented its Restated Standalone Financial Statements for the periods ended September 30,
2025 and financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023. These financial statements
have been prepared on a standalone basis, as the Company does not have any holding, subsidiary, or associate
company as at current period i.e. September 30, 2025.
However, as at March 31, 2023, the Company held a 25% equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private
Limited, which was accounted for as an associate in accordance with Ind AS 28 – Investments in Associates and
Joint Ventures. During the financial year 2023–24, on March 07, 2024, the Company’s shareholding in RCP
276Distilleries (India) Private Limited was reduced from 25% to 10%. Accordingly, the Financial Statements for the
financial year ended 31 March 2023 reflect the Company’s share of profit/(loss) of the associate under the equity
method of accounting. Since the Company acquired a 25% equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private
Limited on March 31, 2023, only the share of profit attributable for one day has been recognized in accordance
with Ind AS 28.
Following the reduction in shareholding, the Company ceased to exercise significant influence over RCP
Distilleries (India) Private Limited. As a result, the investment has been reclassified from “Investment in
Associate” to “Other Investments” in accordance with Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments and is henceforth
measured in accordance with Ind AS 109. Since the Company acquired a 25% equity interest in RCP Distilleries
(India) Private Limited on March 31, 2023, only the share of profit attributable for one day has been recognized
in accordance with Ind AS 28.
2.3 Uses of Estimates
The preparation of the Standalone 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 recognised accordingly.
Key source of estimation of uncertainty at the date of financial statements, which may cause material adjustment
to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, is in respect of impairment, useful
lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, valuation of deferred tax assets, provisions and
contingent liabilities, fair value measurements of financial instruments and retirement benefit obligations as
disclosed below:
Impairment
The Company estimates the value in use of the cash generating unit (CGU) based on future cash flows after
considering current economic conditions and trends, estimated future operating results and growth rates and
anticipated future economic and regulatory conditions. The estimated cash flows are developed using internal
forecasts. The cash flows are discounted using a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value.
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at the end of each
reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation and amortisation expense in future
periods.
Valuation of deferred tax assets
The Company reviews the carrying amount of deferred tax assets at the end of each reporting period.
277Allowances for expected credit loss
The Company makes provision for expected credit losses through appropriate estimations of irrecoverable
amount. The identification of expected credit loss requires use of judgment and estimates. The Company evaluates
trade receivables ageing and makes a provision for those debts as per the provisioning policy.
Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of the
trade and other receivables and doubtful debts expenses in the period in which such estimate has been changed.
Retirement benefit obligations
The Company’s retirement benefit obligations are subject to number of assumptions including discount rates,
inflation and salary growth. Significant assumptions are required when setting these criteria and a change in these
assumptions would have a significant impact on the amount recorded in the Company’s balance sheet and the
statement of profit and loss. The Company sets these assumptions based on previous experience and third-party
actuarial advice.
Classification of Leases
The Company enters into leasing arrangements for Lease Hold Land. The classification of the leasing arrangement
as a finance lease or operating lease is based on an assessment of several factors, including, but not limited to,
transfer of ownership of leased asset at end of lease term, lessee’s option to purchase and estimated certainty of
exercise of such option, proportion of lease term to the asset’s economic life, proportion of present value of
minimum lease payments to fair value of leased asset and extent of specialized nature of the leased asset.
2.4 Significant Accounting Policies
The material accounting policies applied by the Company in the preparation of the Restated Standalone Financial
information are listed below. Such accounting policies have been applied consistently to all the period/financial
years presented in this Restated Standalone Financial information, unless otherwise indicated.
i. Current v/s Non-Current Classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An
asset is classified as current when it is:
• Expected to be realised or intended to sold or consumed in normal operating cycle
• Held primarily for the purpose of trading
• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting
period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-
current assets and liabilities.
278The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and
cash equivalents. Based on the nature of service and the time between rendering of services and their realization
in cash and cash equivalents, 12 months has been considered by the Company for the purpose of current / non-
current classification of assets and liabilities.
ii. A. Functional and Presentation Currency
Amounts in the financial statements are presented in millions rounded off to two decimal places except number
of shares.
B. Foreign Currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the transaction date. Monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the closing exchange rate as at the reporting
date. Foreign exchange differences arising on settlement or remeasurement are recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
The Company did not earn any revenue in foreign currency during the period/financial years presented.
C. Remeasurement of Monetary items
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured at the closing exchange rate at
each reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or remeasurement of monetary items are
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
D. Treatment of Foreign Exchange Differences
1. On Settlement of Payables
The difference between the carrying amount of the payable and the actual payment amount is recognised as foreign
exchange gain/loss in P&L.
2. On Remeasurement at Period End
If monetary items exist at period end (e.g., FCY payables/loans), they are retranslated to the closing rate, Exchange
difference is recorded in P&L. However, there are no FCY Payables & loans outstanding as on September 30,
2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.
E. Accounting for Forward Contracts
The Company has not entered into any forward exchange contracts or other derivative instruments for hedging
foreign currency exposure as on September 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.
F. Foreign Currency Exposure
Since all foreign currency payables arising from import of goods and services were fully settled during the periods
presented, the Company does not have any outstanding foreign currency monetary items as of the reporting dates.
iii. Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)
PPE is recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the
Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. PPE is stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits
279availed, if any less accumulated depreciation and cumulative impairment, if any. All directly attributable costs
related to the acquisition of PPE and, borrowing costs case of qualifying assets are capitalised in accordance with
the Company's accounting policy.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only
when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost
of the item can be measured reliably.
PPE not ready for the intended use on the date of the Balance Sheet are disclosed as "capital work-in-progress"
Depreciation Methods, Estimated Useful Life
Depreciation is recognised using written down value method so as to write off the cost of the assets (other than
freehold land and capital work-in-progress) less their residual values over their useful lives specified in Schedule
II to the Companies Act, 2013, or in the case of assets where the useful life was determined by technical evaluation,
over the useful life so determined.
Depreciation on additions to deductions from, owned assets is calculated on pro rata basis according to the period
of use.
PPE is de recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
Any gain or loss arising on de recognition is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the same period.
The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial year end and
the effect of any change is accounted for on prospective basis.
The carrying amount of all property, plant and equipment are derecognized on its disposal or when no future
economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal and the gain or loss on de-recognition is recognized in the
statement of profit & loss.
The useful life of assets are as follows:
Tangible Assets Useful Life
Building 30 years
Plant & Machinery 15 years
Vehicles 8 years
Furniture & Fixtures 10 years
Office Equipment 5 years
Computer 3 years
iv. Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s
recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an assets or cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair
value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless
the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.
When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired
and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre tax
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such
280transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by
valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.
Impairment losses of continuing operations, including impairment on inventories, are recognised in the statement
of profit and loss.
For assets an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously
recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Company estimates
the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has
been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss
was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable
amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment
loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the statement of profit or loss
unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.
v. Borrowing and Borrowing Costs
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently
measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption
amount is recognised in Statement of profit and loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest
method. Borrowings are derecognised from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is
discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a borrowings that has been
extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred
or liabilities assumed, is recognised in Statement of profit and loss as other gains/(losses). Borrowings are
classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability
for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily
takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset.
All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and
other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange
differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalised as part
of the cost of the assets up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are
recognised as an expense in the Restated Statement of Profit and Loss account in the financial year in which they
are incurred.
vi. Financial Instruments – Initial Recognition, Subsequent Measurement and Impairment
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity.
Financial Assets
(a) Initial recognition and measurement:
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair
value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
(b) Subsequent Measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement financial assets are classified in two broad categories:
2811. Financial assets at fair value.
2. Financial assets at amortised cost
(c) Classification:
The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other
comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss on the basis of its business model for managing the
financial assets and the contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.
(d) Financial assets measured at amortised cost
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when asset is held within a business model, whose objective is to
hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows and contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to
cash flows that are solely for payments of principal and interest. Such financial assets are subsequently measured
at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. The losses arising from impairment are recognised
in the Statement of profit and loss. This category generally applies to trade and other receivables.
(e) Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI):
Financial assets under this category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value
movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income.
(f) Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL):
Financial assets under this category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value with all
changes recognised in profit or loss.
(g) Investment in Equity Instruments:
Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. All other equity instruments are
classified as FVTOCI. Fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the other
comprehensive income. There is no recycling of the amounts from other comprehensive income to profit or loss.
There are no investments in Equity Shares by the Company which are held for trading purpose. However, the
company has investment in Equity Shares of RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited which is classified as
FVTOCI. The Fair Value change is recognized in OCI.
(h) Derecognition of Financial assets:
A financial asset is primarily derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or
the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset, if an entity transfers a financial asset
in a transfer that qualifies for derecognition in its entirety and retains the right to service the financial asset for a
fee, it shall recognise either a servicing asset or a servicing liability for that servicing contract. If the fee to be
received is not expected to compensate the entity adequately for performing the servicing, a servicing liability for
the servicing obligation shall be recognised at its fair value. If the fee to be received is expected to be more than
adequate compensation for the servicing, a servicing asset shall be recognised for the servicing right at an amount
determined on the basis of an allocation of the carrying amount of the larger financial asset.
(i) Impairment of Financial assets:
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on the financial assets that are debt instruments and trade receivables. For
282recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the company determines that whether
there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition.
Financial Liabilities
(a) Initial Recognition and Measurement:
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans, borrowings and payables, net
of directly attributable transaction costs. Financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and
borrowings including bank overdrafts.
(b) Classification & Subsequent measurement:
If a financial instrument that was previously recognised as a financial asset is measured at fair value through profit
or loss and its fair value decreases below zero, it is a financial liability measured in accordance with IND AS.
Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading, if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the
near term.
The Company classifies all financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Such liabilities, including derivatives that are liabilities, shall be
subsequently measured at fair value. However, there is no derivative transactions in the company.
(c) Derecognition of Financial Liabilities:
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms,
or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the
derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective
carrying amounts is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Offsetting financial instruments:
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally
enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis to realise the
asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to Other Income.
vii. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with
an original maturity of three months or less, that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and subject to
an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank balances other than cash & cash equivalents includes fixed deposits
of original maturity of 3 Months to 12 Months.
viii. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
(a) General
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past
event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of
283money is material, the amount of a provision shall be the present value of expense expected to be required to settle
the obligation. Provisions are therefore discounted, when effect is material, the discount rate shall be pre-tax rate
that reflects current market assessment of time value of money and risk specific to the liability. Unwinding of the
discount is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each
balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
(b) Contingencies
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of
which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not
wholly within the control of the company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not
probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be
made. Information on contingent liability is disclosed in the Annexures to the Financial Statements.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by
the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the
entity, Contingent assets are not recognised but are disclosed in the notes. However, when the realisation of income
is virtually certain, then the related asset is no longer a contingent asset, but it is recognised as an asset.
ix. Share Capital and Securities Premium
Ordinary shares are classified as Equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are
shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Par value of the equity share is recorded as share capital and the amount received in excess of the par value is
classified as securities premium.
x. Revenues
(a) Sale of Goods
Revenue from contract with customer is recognized when the Company transfers control over the product to the
customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange
for those goods or services. Control of a product refers to the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially
all of the remaining benefits from that asset. Performance obligations are satisfied at one point in time, typically
on delivery. Most of the revenue earned by the Company is derived from the satisfaction of a single performance
obligation for each contract which is the sale of products. Sales are measured at the fair value of consideration
received or receivable. The amounts of rebates / incentives is accrued on each of the underlying sales transactions
recognised. Returns and customer discounts are recognized in the period in which the underlying sales are
recognized based on an actual basis.
(b) Other Income
- Interest Income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the effective interest rate method.
xi. Taxation
(a) Current Tax
Current tax is expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period and financial year, using the tax rate
enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to the tax payable in respect of the earlier periods.
284Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where the company has legal enforceable right to offset and intends
either to settle on net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.
(b) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized for all taxable temporary differences and is calculated based on 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 when the asset is realized or the liability
is settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available
against which the assets 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.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset and when the deferred
tax balances relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities,
but the company intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities
will be realized simultaneously.
(c) Current and Deferred Tax for the Financial Year
Current and deferred tax are recognized in the statement of profit & loss, except when they relates to items that
are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current tax and deferred
tax is recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity respectively.
xii. Earning Per Share
Basic Earnings Per Share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity shareholders of the
company to the weighted average number of Shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity shareholders of the company after adjusting the effect
of all dilutive potential equity shares that were outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of
equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issue that have changed the
number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
xiii. Leases
As a Lessee
The Company’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for Land. The Company assesses whether a contract
contains a lease, at inception of a 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 an identified asset (ii) the company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of
the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and a
corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of
twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the
Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term.
ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.
285The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability
adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct
costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the
lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. Right of use assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose
of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-
use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely
independent of those from other assets.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The
lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the
incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases.
Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company
changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option. Lease liability and ROU
asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing
cash flows.
xiv. Employee Benefits
The company provides for the various benefits plans to the employees. These are categorized into Defined Benefits
Plans and Defined Contributions Plans. Defined contribution plans includes the amount paid by the company
towards the liability for Provident fund to the employees provident fund organization and Employee State
Insurance fund in respect of ESI and defined benefits plans includes the retirement benefits, such as gratuity.
a. In respect Defined Contribution Plans, contribution made to the specified fund based on the services rendered
by the employees are charged to Statement of Profit & Loss in the period and financial year in which services
are rendered by the employee.
b. Liability in respect of Defined Long Term benefit plan is determined at the present value of the amounts
payable determined using actuarial valuation techniques performed by an independent actuarial at each balance
sheet date using the projected unit credit methods. Re-measurement, comprising actuarial gain and losses, the
effects of assets ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected
immediately in the statement of Financial Position with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive
income in the period in which they occur. Past Service cost is recognized in the statement of profit & loss in
the period of plan amendment.
c. Liabilities for short term employee benefits are measured at undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to
be paid and charged to Statement of Profit & Loss in the period and financial year in which the related service
is rendered.
xv. Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Costs are determined on First in First
Out basis (FIFO) as follows:
(i) Raw materials including import, packing materials and fuel: At actual purchase cost including other cost
incurred in bringing materials / consumables to their present location and condition
(ii) Work-in-progress and intermediates: At material cost, conversion costs and appropriate share of production
overheads based on normal capacity
286(iii) Finished goods: At material cost, conversion costs and an appropriate share of production overheads based
on normal capacity
(iv) Stock-in-trade: At purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and
condition However, materials and other items held for use in production of inventory are not written down below
cost, if the finished product in which they will be used are expected to be sold at or above cost.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of
completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
xvi. Earnings and Expenditure in Foreign Currency
The company has earned no income in foreign currency during the period ended September 30, 2025 and financial
year ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.
Note: The Company had made a payment of ₹0.07 Million in foreign currency towards booking of a motor vehicle.
During the period ended September 30, 2025, the Company received ₹0.85 Million as refund of the advance earlier

xviii. New and Amended Ind AS
(i) Ind AS 117 Insurance Contracts
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notified the Ind AS 117, Insurance Contracts, vide notification dated
12 August 2024, under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2024.
Ind AS 117 Insurance Contracts is a comprehensive new accounting standard for insurance contracts covering
recognition and measurement, presentation and disclosure. Ind AS 117 replaces Ind AS 104 Insurance Contracts.
Ind AS 117 applies to all types of insurance contracts, regardless of the type of entities that issue them as well as
to certain guarantees and financial instruments with discretionary participation features; a few scope exceptions
will apply. Ind AS 117 is based on a general model, supplemented by:
• A specific adaptation for contracts with direct participation features (the variable fee approach)
• A simplified approach (the premium allocation approach) mainly for short-duration contracts
The application of Ind AS 117 does not have a material impact on the Restated Standalone Financial Statements
as the Group has not entered any contracts in the nature of insurance contracts covered under Ind AS 117.
(ii) Amendments to Ind AS 116 Leases – Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback
The MCA notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Second Amendment Rules, 2024, which amend
Ind AS 116, Leases, with respect to Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback.
The amendment specifies the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale
and leaseback transaction, to ensure the seller-lessee does not recognise any amount of the gain or loss that relates
to the right of use it retains.
The amendment does not have a material impact on the Restated Standalone Financial Statements
(iii) Amendments to Ind AS 21 - Lack of exchangeability
The MCA notified amendments to Ind AS 21 The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates to specify how an
entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when
exchangeability is lacking.
The amendments also require disclosure of information that enables users of its Ind AS financial statements to
understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency affects, or is expected to affect, the
entity’s financial performance, financial position and cash flows. The amendments are effective for annual
reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025. When applying the amendments, an entity cannot restate
comparative information.
The amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Restated Standalone Financial Statements.
288(iv) Amendments to Ind AS 1 - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Non-current
Liabilities with Covenants
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified amendments to paragraphs 69 to 76 of Ind AS 1 Presentation of
Financial Statements to specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. The
amendments clarify:
What is meant by a right to defer settlement
That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period.
That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right That only if an
embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument would the terms of a liability not impact
its classification In addition, a requirement has been introduced to require disclosure when a liability arising from
a loan agreement is classified as non-current and the entity’s right to defer settlement is contingent on compliance
with future covenants within twelve months. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning
on or after 1 April 2025 and must be applied retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact the
amendments will have on current practice and whether existing loan agreements may require renegotiation.
(v) Amendments to Ind AS 7 and Ind AS 107 - Supplier Finance Arrangements
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified amendments to Ind AS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and Ind AS 107
Financial Instruments: Disclosures to clarify the characteristics of supplier finance arrangements and require
additional disclosure of such arrangements. The disclosure requirements in the amendments are intended to assist
users of financial statements in understanding the effects of supplier finance arrangements on an entity’s liabilities,
cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk.
The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025.
The amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Restated Standalone Financial
Statements.

Notes
1. Provision for Gratuity Expense & Actuarial Gain/Loss on Defined benefit Plan including Fair Value
of Plan Asset
The provision for gratuity expense for the period ended September 30,2025 & financial years ended March
29031, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023 had not been previously created. The same has now been
recognized in accordance with the actuarial valuation reports obtained for the respective period/financial
years. Consequently, the impact of actuarial gains and losses on the defined benefit plan has been reinstated
in the Ind AS Restated Standalone Financial Statements. In accordance with Ind AS, all actuarial gains and
losses are recognized under Other Comprehensive Income. Further, benefits paid during the respective years
have been adjusted against the gratuity provision as per the actuarial valuation reports, and appropriate
adjustments have been incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements. Adjustments relating
to the fair value of plan assets have also been duly considered.
2. Impact of IND AS 116 Leases
For the purpose of preparation of Restated Standalone Financial Statements, the Company has adopted Ind
AS 116: Leases from the date of transition i.e. 1st April 2023 and management has evaluated the impact of
change in accounting policies required due to adoption of Ind AS 116 for the period ended September 30,
2025 & financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31,2024 and March 31, 2023 and made the necessary
adjustments. The Company has adopted Ind AS 116 – Leases, which requires recognition of right-of-use
assets and corresponding lease liabilities for all qualifying lease arrangements, other than short-term leases
and leases of low-value assets. Accordingly, right-of-use assets in respect of Leasehold Land have been
recognized, while the related lease liabilities are presented under Financial Liabilities. Lease payments
relating to short-term and low-value leases are recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss
on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The impact of recognition of right-of-use assets, lease liabilities, depreciation, and interest cost has been
duly incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the requirements of
Ind AS 116.
3. Deferred Tax
Under Previous GAAP, Deferred Tax is calculated using the income statement approach which focuses on
differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Under Ind AS 12, deferred tax is
calculated using balance sheet approach which focuses on difference between taxable profits and accounting
profits for the period. The application of Ind AS 12 approach has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on
new temporary differences which was not required under IGAAP. In addition, the various transitional
adjustments has led to temporary differences. According to the accounting policies, the company has to
account for such differences. Deferred Tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to the transactions
either in retained earnings and profit and loss respectively.
4. Expected Credit Loss
Under Ind AS, the company has to provide loss allowance on Trade Receivables based on the Expected
Credit Loss (ECL) model which is measured following the "simplified approach". The Company uses an
provision matrix to measure the expected credit losses of trade receivables. The provision matrix is based
on its historical observed default rates, adjusted for forward looking estimates. The Company has impaired
its Trade Receivables by ₹ 0.10 million as on September 30, 2025, ₹ 0.13 million as on March 31, 2025, ₹
0.09 million as on March 31, 2024 and ₹ 0.07 million as on March 31, 2023 and its corresponding effect in
statement of profit and loss in the respective financial years and ₹ 0.06 million in the Retained Earnings
(opening balance) as on April 01, 2023.
5. Profit from Associates
The investment in associates is accounted for using the equity method in accordance with Ind AS 28 –
Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. Under this method, the investment is initially recognized at
cost and subsequently adjusted to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss after the date of
acquisition, as well as its share of other comprehensive income of the associate. Accordingly, the share of
profit / (loss) of associates has been reinstated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements. RCP
Distilleries (India) Private Limited became an associate of the Company on March 31, 2023, pursuant to the
291acquisition of a 25% equity interest. Accordingly, the investment was accounted for using the equity method
in accordance with Ind AS 28 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, and the Company’s share of
profit/(loss) in the associate was recognized in the standalone Financial Statements. Since the Company
acquired a 25% equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited on 31 March 2023, only the share
of profit attributable for one day has been recognized in accordance with Ind AS 28.
Subsequently, on March 7, 2024, the Company’s equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited
was reduced from 25% to 10%. Consequently, the Company no longer exercises significant influence over
RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited, and the investment has been reclassified from “Investment in
Associate” to “Other Investments” in accordance with Ind AS requirements. Appropriate adjustments arising
from this reclassification have been duly incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements.

An Accounting Adjustment has been made where the Interest on Delayed Payment of MSME has been
shown in the Restated Standalone Financial Statement for the period ended September 30, 2025 of ₹ 1,028
and financial year ended March 31, 2025 of ₹ 21,452. Thus, the appropriate adjustment has been made in

ended March 31, 2025.
7. Accounting Adjustment of Depreciation & Profit on sale of PPE

been appropriately recognized in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements. Depreciation has been
recalculated in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment, based on
the useful lives and residual values of assets as determined by the management. Further, profit or loss arising
from the disposal of PPE has been adjusted by comparing the net sale proceeds with the carrying amount of
the respective assets, and the impact has been reflected in the Statement of Profit and Loss of the relevant
periods. These adjustments have been duly incorporated to present a true and fair view of the standalone
financial position and performance.
8. Fair Value of Investments
The fair value of investments has been appropriately classified and recognized in Other Comprehensive
Income (OCI) in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments. Changes in fair
value of such investments designated at fair value through OCI have been presented under equity, and no
subsequent reclassification of these gains or losses to the Statement of Profit and Loss will be made upon

Notes:
(1) The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yield of Indian Government Securities as at Balance
Sheet date for the estimated term of obligation.
(2) The estimate of future salary increases considered in actuarial valuation takes into account inflation,
seniority, promotion and other relevant factors such as supply and demand in the employment market.
(vi) Sensitivity Analysis
The sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to changes in the weighted principal assumptions is:
For the Period/Financial Year ended
Particulars September March 31, March 31, March 31,
30, 2025 2025 2024 2023
(a) Impact of Discount rate on defined benefit
obligation
Increased by 1.00% -1.93 -1.83 -1.52 -1.13
Decreased by 1.00% 2.23 2.13 1.77 1.32
(b) Impact of Salary Escalation rate on defined
benefit obligation
Increased by 1.00% 1.61 1.51 1.24 0.95
Decreased by 1.00% -1.58 -1.48 -1.23 -0.95
The above sensitivity analyses are based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions
constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When
calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method
i.e. projected unit credit method has been applied as that used for calculating the defined benefit liability
recognised in the balance sheet.
vii) Risk Exposure
The defined benefit obligations have the undermentioned risk exposures:
Interest rate risk: The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds.
If bond yields fall, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.
Salary Inflation risk: Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.
Demographic risk: This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that
include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit
323obligation is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and
vesting criteria.
Investment risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate
determined by reference to high quality corporate bond yields; if the return on plan asset is below this rate, it
will create a plan deficit.
viii) Defined benefit liability and employer contributions
The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation is 12.45 years (March 31, 2025: 12.56 years,
March 31, 2024: 12.86 years, March 31, 2023: 13.28 years ).
The expected maturity analysis of undiscounted gratuity is as follows:

Particulars September March 31, March 31, March 31,

B) Defined Contribution Plan
The Company has a defined contribution plan in respect of provident fund. Contributions are made to provident
fund and employees state insurance in India for employees at the rate as prescribed in the regulations. The
obligation of the group is limited to the amount contributed and it has no further contractual nor any
constructive obligation.

ii) Fair value hierarchy
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial
instruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which
fair values are disclosed in the financial statements. to provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs
used in determining fair value, the company has classified its financial instruments into the three levels
prescribed under the accounting standard.
Quantitative disclosures of fair value measurement hierarchy are as follows:
Fair value measurement using
Quoted prices Significant Significant
Particulars
in active observable unobservable Total
markets inputs inputs
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Financial assets measures at fair value
There has been no transfer among Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the year.
Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed
Level 1: equity instruments that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded
in stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period.
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using
valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as
Level 2:
possible on equity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument
are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.
If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is
Level 3: included in Level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities, security deposits included in
Level 3.
325ANNEXURE 49: FIRST TIME ADOPTION OF IND AS
(₹ in million)
The Restated standalone Financial Information have been compiled from the Audited Financial Statements for
the period ended September 30, 2025 and financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, March 31,
2023. In preparing these financial statements, the Company’s opening balance sheet was prepared as at April
01, 2023, the Company’s date of transition to Ind AS. This note explains the principal adjustments made by
the Company in restating its IGAAP financial statements, including the balance sheet as at April 01, 2023 and
the financial statements as at and for the financial year ended March 31, 2024 and how the transition from
IGAAP to Ind AS has affected the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.
A) IND AS ADJUSTMENTS
Optional exemptions availed on first time adoption of IND AS under "IND AS 101".
I. Deemed Cost
The Company has availed the deemed cost exemption as per IND AS 101 in relation to property, plant and
equipment and Intangible assets as on the date of transition i.e. April 01, 2023 and hence the net block carrying
amount (as per Previous GAAP) has been considered as the gross block carrying amount (as per Ind AS) on
that date i.e. April 01, 2023
II. Remeasurement gain/loss of net defined plan & Fair Value of Investments
Under Ind AS, all actuarial gains and losses and gain / loss arising on Fair Value of Investments are recognised
in the other comprehensive income.
III. Leases
Ind AS 116 'Leases' requires an entity to assess whether a contract or arrangement contains a lease. In
accordance with Ind AS 116, this assessment should be carried out at the inception of the contract or
arrangement. Ind AS 101 provides an option to make this assessment on the basis of facts and circumstances
existing at the date of transition to Ind AS, except where the effect is expected to be not material.
IV. Deferred Tax
Under Previous GAAP, Deferred tax is calculated using the income statement approach which focuses on
differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Under Ind AS 12 deferred tax is
calculated using balance sheet approach which focuses on differences between taxable profits and accounting
profits for the period. The application of Ind AS 12 approach has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new
temporary differences which was not required under IGAAP. In addition, the various transitional adjustments
lead to temporary differences. According to the accounting policies, the Company has to account for such
differences. Deferred tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in
retained earnings or profit and loss respectively.
V. Expected Credit losses
Under Previous GAAP, The Company had recognised provision on trade receivables based on the expectation
of the Company. Under Ind AS, the Company has to provide loss allowance on receivables based on the
Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model which is measured following the "simplified approach". The Company uses
an provision matrix to measure the expected credit losses of trade receivables. The provision matrix is based
on its historical observed default rates, adjusted for forward looking estimates.
VI. Borrowings
Under Previous GAAP, processing fee on borrowings are recognised as expense when incurred. Under Ind AS
109, these costs are recognised under EIR method. Although it has negligible impact on borrowings under IND
AS.
VII. Business Combination
In accordance with Ind AS transitional provision, the company opted not to restate business combination which
occurred prior to transition date.
326B) Reconciliations from previous GAAP

1. Provision for Gratuity Expense & Actuarial Gain/Loss on Defined benefit Plan including Fair Value
of Plan asset
The provision for gratuity expense for the financial years ended March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, had
not been previously created. The same has now been recognized in accordance with the actuarial valuation
reports obtained for the respective years. Consequently, the impact of actuarial gains and losses on the
defined benefit plan has been reinstated in the Ind AS Restated Standalone Financial Statements.
332In accordance with Ind AS, all actuarial gains and losses are recognized under Other Comprehensive
Income. Further, benefits paid during the respective years have been adjusted against the gratuity provision
as per the actuarial valuation reports, and appropriate adjustments have been incorporated in the Restated
Standalone Financial Statements. Adjustments relating to the fair value of plan assets have also been duly
considered.
2. Impact of IND AS 116 Leases
For the purpose of preparation of Restated standalone Financial Statements, the Company has adopted Ind
AS 116: Leases from the date of transition i.e. April 01, 2023 and management has evaluated the impact of
change in accounting policies required due to adoption of Ind AS 116 for the financial years ended March
31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 and made the necessary adjustments. The Company has adopted Ind AS 116
– Leases, which requires recognition of right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities for all
qualifying lease arrangements, other than short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. Accordingly,
right-of-use assets in respect of Leasehold Land have been recognized, while the related lease liabilities are
presented under Financial Liabilities. Lease payments relating to short-term and low-value leases are
recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The impact of recognition of right-of-use assets, lease liabilities, depreciation, and interest cost has been
duly incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the requirements of
Ind AS 116.
3. Deferred Tax
Under Previous GAAP, Deferred Tax is calculated using the income statement approach which focuses on
differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Under Ind AS 12, deferred tax is
calculated using balance sheet approach which focuses on difference between taxable profits and
accounting profits for the period. The application of Ind AS 12 approach has resulted in recognition of
deferred tax on new temporary differences which was not required under IGAAP. In addition, the various
transitional adjustments have led to temporary differences. According to the accounting policies, the
company has to account for such differences. Deferred Tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to
the transactions either in retained earnings and profit and loss respectively.
4. Expected Credit Loss
Under Ind AS, the company has to provide loss allowance on Trade Receivables based on the Expected
Credit Loss (ECL) model which is measured following the "simplified approach". The Company uses an
provision matrix to measure the expected credit losses of trade receivables. The provision matrix is based
on its historical observed default rates, adjusted for forward looking estimates. The Company has impaired
its Trade Receivables Rs 0.09 million as on March 31, 2024 and Rs 0.07 million as on March 31, 2023 and
its corresponding effect in statement of profit and loss in the respective financial years and Rs 0.06 million
in the Retained Earnings (opening balance) as on 1st April 2023.
5. Profit from Associates
The investment in associates is accounted for using the equity method in accordance with Ind AS 28 –
Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. Under this method, the investment is initially recognized at
cost and subsequently adjusted to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss after the date of
acquisition, as well as its share of other comprehensive income of the associate. Accordingly, the share of
profit / (loss) of associates has been reinstated in the Restated standalone Financial Statements. RCP
Distilleries (India) Private Limited became an associate of the Company on March 31, 2023, pursuant to
the acquisition of a 25% equity interest. Accordingly, the investment was accounted for using the equity
method in accordance with Ind AS 28 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, and the Company’s
share of profit/(loss) in the associate was recognized in the standalone Financial Statements.
Subsequently, on March 7, 2024, the Company’s equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited
was reduced from 25% to 10%. Consequently, the Company no longer exercises significant influence over
RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited, and the investment has been reclassified from “Investment in
333Associate” to “Other Investments” in accordance with Ind AS requirements. Appropriate adjustments
arising from this reclassification have been duly incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial
Statements.
6. Accounting Adjustment of Depreciation & Profit on sale of PPE
Adjustments relating to depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and profit on sale of PPE
have been appropriately recognized in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements. Depreciation has been
recalculated in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment, based on
the useful lives and residual values of assets as determined by the management. Further, profit or loss
arising from the disposal of PPE has been adjusted by comparing the net sale proceeds with the carrying
amount of the respective assets, and the impact has been reflected in the Statement of Profit and Loss of
the relevant periods. These adjustments have been duly incorporated to present a true and fair view of the
Standalone financial position and performance.
7. Fair Value of Investments
The fair value of investments has been appropriately classified and recognized in Other Comprehensive
Income (OCI) in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments. Changes in fair
value of such investments designated at fair value through OCI have been presented under equity, and no
subsequent reclassification of these gains or losses to the Statement of Profit and Loss will be made upon
disposal of the investments. The related adjustments have been duly incorporated in the Restated
Standalone Financial Statements.
ANNEXURE 50: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
(₹ in million)
A) FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company’s principal financial liabilities comprise loans, borrowings, lease liabilities and trade and other
payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company’s operations. The
Company’s principal financial assets include trade receivables, other financial assets and cash and cash
equivalents that derive directly from its operations.
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s senior management
oversees the management of these risks. The Company’s senior management ensures that the Company’s
financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are
identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company’s policies and risk objective. The Board
of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below.
(a) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because
of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and
other price risk, such as equity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and
borrowings.
-Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because
of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates
relates primarily to the Company’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. The Company
manages its interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate loans and borrowings.
The Company’s policy is to borrow funds at fixed and floating rate of interest.
Interest rate sensitivity
The following table illustrates the sensitivity of profit and equity to a reasonably possible change in interest
rates of +/- 1%. These changes are considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of current market
conditions. Sensitivity calculations are based on an annualised interest cost on the borrowings at floating rate
334as of the reporting dates September 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and April 01, 2023. All other
variables are held constant.

A. Overall Exposure
The Company imports goods/services and, therefore, incurs foreign currency expenditure. The Company does
not have foreign currency earnings during the periods presented. At reporting dates, the Company does not
have any foreign currency monetary assets or liabilities, as all import payables were fully settled prior to the
balance sheet date for the period ended September 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31,
2023. Accordingly, there is no outstanding foreign currency exposure requiring sensitivity analysis under Ind
AS 107.
B. Nature of Foreign Currency Transactions
The Company’s foreign currency exposure arises primarily from:
• Import of raw materials
• Payment of Fees & Subscription & Business Promotion Expenses
• All such payments were fully settled during the year.
C. Outstanding Foreign Currency Exposure
Since the Company has no outstanding FCY monetary assets or liabilities as at the reporting dates, the foreign
currency exposure is NIL.

E. Sensitivity Analysis
The Company has incurred foreign currency expenditure during the reporting periods ended September 30,
2025 and March 31, 2025. However, the Company does not have any foreign currency monetary items
335outstanding at the reporting dates. Accordingly, the Company is not exposed to any significant foreign currency
risk as at period ended September 30, 2025 and financial year ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and
March 31, 2023 and no sensitivity analysis has been presented. All foreign currency transactions have been
accounted for in accordance with Ind AS 21.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer
contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities
(primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including investments, deposits with banks and
financial institutions and other financial instruments.
(i) Trade receivables
Customer credit risk is managed by the Company’s established policies, procedures and controls relating to
customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an individual credit limits
and are defined in accordance with management's assessment of the customer. Outstanding customer
receivables are regularly monitored. The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the fact that the customer
base is large. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure
expected credit losses. The Company uses ageing buckets and provision matrix for the purpose of computation
of expected credit loss. The provision rates are based on past trend of recoverability. The calculation reflects
the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is
available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
The Company makes provision of expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix. The
provision matrix is based on its historical observed default rates, adjusted for forward looking estimates. At
every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and Company makes appropriate
provision wherever outstanding is for longer period and involves higher risk
The movement in provision for expected credit loss for trade receivables are as follows:

Credit risk from balances with banks is managed by the management in accordance with the Company’s policy.
Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties based on limits defined by the
management. The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss
through counterparty’s potential failure to make payments.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may encounter difficulty in meeting its present and future obligations
associated with financial liabilities that are required to be settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
The Company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the
use of bank overdrafts, bank loans and finance leases. The Company closely monitors its liquidity position and
deploys a robust cash management system. It aims to minimise these risks by generating sufficient cash flows
336from its current operations, which in addition to the available cash and cash equivalents and sufficient
committed fund facilities, will provide liquidity. The liquidity risk is managed on the basis of expected maturity
dates of the financial liabilities. The carrying amounts are assumed to be reasonable approximation of fair
value.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on
contractual undiscounted payments.

The ratios have been computed as under:
1. Basic earnings per share (₹) is calculated by dividing Profit/ (loss) attributable to equity shareholders of the
Company for basic/ diluted EPS for continuing operations by the weighted average number of equity shares
outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during financial year
after adjusting the impact of bonus shares issued subsequent to financial year.
2. Diluted earnings per share (₹) is calculated by dividing Profit/ (loss) attributable to equity shareholders of the
Company for basic/ diluted EPS for continuing operations by the weighted average number of equity shares
after adjusting the impact of bonus shares issued subsequent to financial year and after adjusting for the effect
of dilution. The weighted average number of equity shares is adjusted to include the potential dilutive effect of
instruments such as employee stock options, convertible securities, and/or bonus shares, as applicable during
the relevant financial year.
3. Net worth means the aggregate value of the equity share capital and all retained earnings created out of the
profits, other comprehensive income net of tax and securities premium account and debit or credit balance
of profit and loss account, after deducting the aggregate value of the accumulated losses, deferred expenditure
and miscellaneous expenditure not written off, as per the restated standalone financial information, but does
not include reserves created out of revaluation of assets, write- back of depreciation and amalgamation,
capital reserve on consolidation and foreign currency translation reserve.
3464. Return on Net Worth (%) is Restated profit/ (loss) for the financial year divided by the of Net Worth of the
relevant financial year.
5. Net asset value per equity share is Net worth as of the end of the period /financial year divided by the weighted
average outstanding equity shares considered for diluted EPS after adjusting the impact of bonus shares issued
subsequent to financial year as the end of the financial year.
6. EBITDA refers to Earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortisation and Exceptional
Items less Other Income as disclosed in our Restated Standalone Financial Information.

353Business Overview
We are engaged in the manufacturing of animal feed supplements and marketing of veterinary pharmaceutical
drugs and animal feed supplements to address healthcare and nutritional requirements of livestock animals under
the veterinary pharmaceutical industry. Our product portfolio is designed to address healthcare and nutritional
requirements of livestock animals. Our Company was incorporated on November 18, 1997, vide certificate of
incorporation issued by the Assistant Registrar of Companies, N.C.T. of Delhi & Haryana under the Companies
Act, 1956. Subsequently, the name of our Company was changed from ‘Rodec Pharmaceuticals Private Limited’
to ‘Rodec Pharma Private Limited’ by way of shareholders’ resolution dated December 30, 2023. Consequently,
a certificate of incorporation pursuant to change of name, dated January 16, 2024, was issued to the Company by
the Registrar of Companies, Delhi. Thereafter, our Company was converted into a public limited company
pursuant to a special resolution passed by our Shareholders on March 18, 2024, and consequently, a fresh
certificate of incorporation dated June 19, 2024 was issued by the Registrar of Companies, Central Processing
Centre (“CPC”) to our Company under its present name i.e., “Rodec Pharma Limited”. Subsequently, the
registered office of our Company was shifted from the state of Delhi to the state of Uttar Pradesh and consequently
a certificate of registration of Regional Director order for change of state dated December 26, 2025, was issued to
the Company by ROC Kanpur. Our Company’s Corporate Identity Number is U24233UP1997PLC239832. For

Since our incorporation in 1997, we have established ourselves as a veterinary pharmaceutical company focused
on providing reliable and validated solutions to veterinarians, animal healthcare providers, and livestock farmers.
Our business model integrates manufacturing, distribution, and marketing, enabling us to effectively reach end-
users and expand our presence across multiple geographies.
The Company commenced production at its manufacturing facility located in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh with effect
from December 29, 2022, and subsequently began manufacturing animal feed supplements at the said facility.
The commencement of in-house manufacturing has led to changes in the Company’s cost structure, enhanced
direct control and oversight over production processes, and enabled more efficient management of production
schedules in line with market demand. Prior to commencing manufacturing operations in December 2022, the
Company was primarily engaged in the marketing and distribution of veterinary pharmaceuticals drugs and animal
feed supplements through its established distribution network.
Our established manufacturing facility operates in compliance with international quality standards, holding Fami-
QS and ISO certifications, which underscore our commitment to maintaining the market standards of product
safety and efficacy.
The veterinary pharmaceutical industry in India is a critical component of the country’s livestock and agricultural
ecosystem. India has about 536.8 million livestock, including 303.8 million bovines (Cattle, Buffalo, Mithun and
Yak), according to the 20th Livestock Census, and is the largest milk producer globally with a significant role in
meat and egg production. Animal healthcare supports livestock productivity, disease control, food safety, and
rural livelihoods. The livestock sector contributes 5.5% to national GVA and 31.0% to the GVA of agriculture
and allied sectors (2023–24). Our principal competitors within India include leading pharmaceutical companies
operating in similar therapeutic areas and product categories, such as Alembic Pharmaceuticals Limited, Elanco
India Private Limited, Hester Bioscience Limited and Intas Pharmaceuticals Limited etc. Among the considered
players, Rodec Pharma Limited recorded the highest revenue from operations CAGR of 21.9% and the highest
PAT CAGR of 87.2% between FY23–25. The Company also reported the second-highest operating EBITDA
CAGR of 78.1% during the same period. In FY25, the Company’s operating EBITDA margin stood at 24.2%,
while its PAT margin was 16.9%, both ranking second among the peer group. Additionally, in FY25, the company
reported the highest RoE of 44.6% and RoCE of 53.8% among the considered players. (Source: Crisil Report).

formal long-term agreements with our consignee agents, which set out the applicable commercial terms, credit
policies and reporting obligations. In addition, we have deployed Veterinary Sales Representatives (“VSRs”) to

Our distribution network covers multiple Indian states including Maharashtra, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab,
Gujarat, Rajasthan, Assam, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, Chhattisgarh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttarakhand, Himachal

2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 of the Company, the transition date is considered as April 01, 2023.
Accordingly, the Company has applied the same accounting policy and accounting policy choices (both mandatory
exceptions and optional exemptions availed as per Ind AS 101, as applicable) as on April 01, 2023.
(b) Basis of Measurement
The Restated Standalone Financial Information have been prepared on a historical cost basis except certain items
that are measured at fair value as explained in accounting policies.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell 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 leasing transactions that
are within the scope of Ind AS 116 – Leases, and measurements.
2.2 Investment in Associates
The Company has presented its Restated Standalone Financial Statements for the periods ended September 30,
2025 and financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023. These financial statements
have been prepared on a standalone basis, as the Company does not have any holding, subsidiary, or associate
company as at current period i.e. September 30, 2025.
However, as at March 31, 2023, the Company held a 25% equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private
Limited, which was accounted for as an associate in accordance with Ind AS 28 – Investments in Associates and
Joint Ventures. During the financial year 2023–24, on March 07, 2024, the Company’s shareholding in RCP
358Distilleries (India) Private Limited was reduced from 25% to 10%. Accordingly, the Financial Statements for the
financial year ended March 31, 2023 reflect the Company’s share of profit/(loss) of the associate under the equity
method of accounting. Since the Company acquired a 25% equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private
Limited on March 31, 2023, only the share of profit attributable for one day has been recognized in accordance
with Ind AS 28.
Following the reduction in shareholding, the Company ceased to exercise significant influence over RCP
Distilleries (India) Private Limited. As a result, the investment has been reclassified from “Investment in
Associate” to “Other Investments” in accordance with Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments and is henceforth
measured in accordance with Ind AS 109. Since the Company acquired a 25% equity interest in RCP Distilleries
(India) Private Limited on March 31, 2023, only the share of profit attributable for one day has been recognized
in accordance with Ind AS 28.
2.3 Uses of Estimates
The preparation of the Standalone 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 recognised accordingly.
Key source of estimation of uncertainty at the date of financial statements, which may cause material adjustment
to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, is in respect of impairment, useful
lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, valuation of deferred tax assets, provisions and
contingent liabilities, fair value measurements of financial instruments and retirement benefit obligations as
disclosed below:
Impairment
The Company estimates the value in use of the cash generating unit (CGU) based on future cash flows after
considering current economic conditions and trends, estimated future operating results and growth rates and
anticipated future economic and regulatory conditions. The estimated cash flows are developed using internal
forecasts. The cash flows are discounted using a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value.
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at the end of each
reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation and amortisation expense in future
periods.
Valuation of deferred tax assets
The Company reviews the carrying amount of deferred tax assets at the end of each reporting period.
359Allowances for expected credit loss
The Company makes provision for expected credit losses through appropriate estimations of irrecoverable
amount. The identification of expected credit loss requires use of judgment and estimates. The Company evaluates
trade receivables ageing and makes a provision for those debts as per the provisioning policy.
Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of the
trade and other receivables and doubtful debts expenses in the period in which such estimate has been changed.
Retirement benefit obligations
The Company’s retirement benefit obligations are subject to number of assumptions including discount rates,
inflation and salary growth. Significant assumptions are required when setting these criteria and a change in these
assumptions would have a significant impact on the amount recorded in the Company’s balance sheet and the
statement of profit and loss. The Company sets these assumptions based on previous experience and third-party
actuarial advice.
Classification of Leases
The Company enters into leasing arrangements for Lease Hold Land. The classification of the leasing arrangement
as a finance lease or operating lease is based on an assessment of several factors, including, but not limited to,
transfer of ownership of leased asset at end of lease term, lessee’s option to purchase and estimated certainty of
exercise of such option, proportion of lease term to the asset’s economic life, proportion of present value of
minimum lease payments to fair value of leased asset and extent of specialized nature of the leased asset.
2.4 Significant Accounting Policies
The material accounting policies applied by the Company in the preparation of the Restated Standalone Financial
information are listed below. Such accounting policies have been applied consistently to all the periods and
financial years presented in this Restated Standalone Financial information, unless otherwise indicated.
i. Current v/s Non-Current Classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An
asset is classified as current when it is:
• Expected to be realised or intended to sold or consumed in normal operating cycle
• Held primarily for the purpose of trading
• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting
period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-
current assets and liabilities.
360The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and
cash equivalents. Based on the nature of service and the time between rendering of services and their realization
in cash and cash equivalents, 12 months has been considered by the Company for the purpose of current / non-
current classification of assets and liabilities.
ii. A. Functional and Presentation Currency
Amounts in the financial statements are presented in millions rounded off to two decimal places except number
of shares.
B. Foreign Currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the transaction date. Monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the closing exchange rate as at the reporting
date. Foreign exchange differences arising on settlement or remeasurement are recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
The Company did not earn any revenue in foreign currency during the periods/years presented.
C. Remeasurement of Monetary items
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured at the closing exchange rate at
each reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or remeasurement of monetary items are
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
D. Treatment of Foreign Exchange Differences
1. On Settlement of Payables
The difference between the carrying amount of the payable and the actual payment amount is recognised as foreign
exchange gain/loss in P&L.
2. On Remeasurement at Period End
If monetary items exist at period end (e.g., FCY payables/loans), they are retranslated to the closing rate, Exchange
difference is recorded in P&L. However, there are no FCY Payables & loans outstanding as on September 30,
2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.
E. Accounting for Forward Contracts
The Company has not entered into any forward exchange contracts or other derivative instruments for hedging
foreign currency exposure as on September 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.
F. Foreign Currency Exposure
Since all foreign currency payables arising from import of goods and services were fully settled during the periods
presented, the Company does not have any outstanding foreign currency monetary items as of the reporting dates.
iii. Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)
PPE is recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the
Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. PPE is stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits
361availed, if any less accumulated depreciation and cumulative impairment, if any. All directly attributable costs
related to the acquisition of PPE and, borrowing costs case of qualifying assets are capitalised in accordance with
the Company's accounting policy.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only
when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost
of the item can be measured reliably.
PPE not ready for the intended use on the date of the Balance Sheet are disclosed as "capital work-in-progress"
Depreciation Methods, Estimated Useful Life
Depreciation is recognised using written down value method so as to write off the cost of the assets (other than
freehold land and capital work-in-progress) less their residual values over their useful lives specified in Schedule
II to the Companies Act, 2013, or in the case of assets where the useful life was determined by technical evaluation,
over the useful life so determined.
Depreciation on additions to deductions from, owned assets is calculated on pro rata basis according to the period
of use.
PPE is de recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal.
Any gain or loss arising on de recognition is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the same period.
The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial year end and
the effect of any change is accounted for on prospective basis.
The carrying amount of the all property, plant and equipment are derecognized on its disposal or when no future
economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal and the gain or loss on de-recognition is recognized in the
statement of profit & loss.
The useful life of assets are as follows:
Tangible Assets Useful Life
Building 30 years
Plant & Machinery 15 years
Vehicles 8 years
Furniture & Fixtures 10 years
Office Equipment 5 years
Computer 3 years
iv. Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s
recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an assets or cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair
value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless
the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.
When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired
and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre tax
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such
transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by
362valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.
Impairment losses of continuing operations, including impairment on inventories, are recognised in the statement
of profit and loss.
For assets an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously
recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Company estimates
the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has
been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss
was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable
amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment
loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the statement of profit or loss
unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.
v. Borrowing and Borrowing Costs
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently
measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption
amount is recognised in Statement of profit and loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest
method. Borrowings are derecognised from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is
discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a borrowings that has been
extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred
or liabilities assumed, is recognised in Statement of profit and loss as other gains/(losses). Borrowings are
classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability
for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily
takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset.
All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and
other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange
differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalised as part
of the cost of the assets up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are
recognised as an expense in the Restated Statement of Profit and Loss account in the financial year in which they
are incurred.
vi. Financial Instruments – Initial Recognition, Subsequent Measurement and Impairment
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity.
Financial Assets
(a) Initial recognition and measurement:
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair
value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
(b) Subsequent Measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement financial assets are classified in two broad categories:
1. Financial assets at fair value.
3632. Financial assets at amortised cost
(c) Classification:
The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other
comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss on the basis of its business model for managing the
financial assets and the contractual cash flows characteristics of the financial asset.
(d) Financial assets measured at amortised cost
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when asset is held within a business model, whose objective is to
hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows and contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to
cash flows that are solely for payments of principal and interest. Such financial assets are subsequently measured
at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. The losses arising from impairment are recognised
in the Statement of profit and loss. This category generally applies to trade and other receivables.
(e) Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI):
Financial assets under this category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value
movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income.
(f) Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL):
Financial assets under this category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value with all
changes recognised in profit or loss.
(g) Investment in Equity Instruments:
Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. All other equity instruments are
classified as FVTOCI. Fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the other
comprehensive income. There is no recycling of the amounts from other comprehensive income to profit or loss.
There are no investments in Equity Shares by the Company which are held for trading purpose. However, the
company has investment in Equity Shares of RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited which is classified as
FVTOCI. The Fair Value change is recognized in OCI.
(h) Derecognition of Financial assets:
A financial asset is primarily derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or
the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset, if an entity transfers a financial asset
in a transfer that qualifies for derecognition in its entirety and retains the right to service the financial asset for a
fee, it shall recognise either a servicing asset or a servicing liability for that servicing contract. If the fee to be
received is not expected to compensate the entity adequately for performing the servicing, a servicing liability for
the servicing obligation shall be recognised at its fair value. If the fee to be received is expected to be more than
adequate compensation for the servicing, a servicing asset shall be recognised for the servicing right at an amount
determined on the basis of an allocation of the carrying amount of the larger financial asset.
(i) Impairment of Financial assets:
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on the financial assets that are debt instruments and trade receivables. For
recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the company determines that whether
there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition.
364Financial Liabilities
(a) Initial Recognition and Measurement:
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans, borrowings and payables, net
of directly attributable transaction costs. Financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and
borrowings including bank overdrafts.
(b) Classification & Subsequent measurement:
If a financial instrument that was previously recognised as a financial asset is measured at fair value through profit
or loss and its fair value decreases below zero, it is a financial liability measured in accordance with IND AS.
Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading, if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the
near term.
The Company classifies all financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Such liabilities, including derivatives that are liabilities, shall be
subsequently measured at fair value. However, there is no derivative transactions in the company.
(c) Derecognition of Financial Liabilities:
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms,
or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the
derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective
carrying amounts is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Offsetting financial instruments:
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally
enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis to realise the
asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to Other Income.
vii. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with
an original maturity of three months or less, that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and subject to
an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank balances other than cash & cash equivalents includes fixed deposits
of original maturity of 3 Months to 12 Months.
viii. Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
(a) General
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past
event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of
money is material, the amount of a provision shall be the present value of expense expected to be required to settle
the obligation. Provisions are therefore discounted, when effect is material, The discount rate shall be pre-tax rate
that reflects current market assessment of time value of money and risk specific to the liability. Unwinding of the
365discount is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each
balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
(b) Contingencies
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of
which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not
wholly within the control of the company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not
probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be
made. Information on contingent liability is disclosed in the Annexures to the Financial Statements.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by
the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the
entity, Contingent assets are not recognised but are disclosed in the notes. However, when the realisation of income
is virtually certain, then the related asset is no longer a contingent asset, but it is recognised as an asset.
ix. Share Capital and Securities Premium
Ordinary shares are classified as Equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are
shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Par value of the equity share is recorded as share capital and the amount received in excess of the par value is
classified as securities premium.
x. Revenues
(a) Sale of Goods
Revenue from contract with customer is recognized when the Company transfers control over the product to the
customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange
for those goods or services. Control of a product refers to the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially
all of the remaining benefits from that asset. Performance obligations are satisfied at one point in time, typically
on delivery. Most of the revenue earned by the Company is derived from the satisfaction of a single performance
obligation for each contract which is the sale of products. Sales are measured at the fair value of consideration
received or receivable. The amounts of rebates / incentives is accrued on each of the underlying sales transactions
recognised. Returns and customer discounts are recognized in the period in which the underlying sales are
recognized based on an actual basis.
(b) Other Income
- Interest Income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis using the effective interest rate method.
xi. Taxation
(a) Current Tax
Current tax is expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period and financial year, using the tax rate
enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to the tax payable in respect of the earlier periods.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where the company has legal enforceable right to offset and intends
either to settle on net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liability simultaneously.
366(b) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized for all taxable temporary differences and is calculated based on 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 when the asset is realized or the liability
is settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available
against which the assets 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.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset and when the deferred
tax balances relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities,
but the company intends to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities
will be realized simultaneously.
(c) Current and Deferred Tax for the Financial Year
Current and deferred tax are recognized in the statement of profit & loss, except when they relates to items that
are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current tax and deferred
tax is recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity respectively.
xii. Earning Per Share
Basic Earnings Per Share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity shareholders of the
company to the weighted average number of Shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity shareholders of the company after adjusting the effect
of all dilutive potential equity shares that were outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of
equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issue that have changed the
number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
xiii. Leases
As a Lessee
The Company’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for Land. The Company assesses whether a contract
contains a lease, at inception of a 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 an identified asset (ii) the company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of
the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and a
corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of
twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the
Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term.
ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability
adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct
costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses.
367Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the
lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. Right of use assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose
of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-
use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely
independent of those from other assets.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The
lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the
incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases.
Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company
changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option. Lease liability and ROU
asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing
cash flows.
xiv. Employee Benefits
The company provides for the various benefits plans to the employees. These are categorized into Defined Benefits
Plans and Defined Contributions Plans. Defined contribution plans includes the amount paid by the company
towards the liability for Provident fund to the employees provident fund organization and Employee State
Insurance fund in respect of ESI and defined benefits plans includes the retirement benefits, such as gratuity.
a. In respect Defined Contribution Plans, contribution made to the specified fund based on the services rendered
by the employees are charged to Statement of Profit & Loss in the period and financial year in which services
are rendered by the employee.
b. Liability in respect of Defined Long Term benefit plan is determined at the present value of the amounts
payable determined using actuarial valuation techniques performed by an independent actuarial at each balance
sheet date using the projected unit credit methods. Re-measurement, comprising actuarial gain and losses, the
effects of assets ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected
immediately in the statement of Financial Position with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive
income in the period in which they occur. Past Service cost is recognized in the statement of profit & loss in
the period of plan amendment.
c. Liabilities for short term employee benefits are measured at undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to
be paid and charged to Statement of Profit & Loss in the period and financial year in which the related service
is rendered.
xv. Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Costs are determined on First in First
Out basis (FIFO) as follows:
(i) Raw materials including import, packing materials and fuel: At actual purchase cost including other cost
incurred in bringing materials / consumables to their present location and condition
(ii) Work-in-progress and intermediates: At material cost, conversion costs and appropriate share of production
overheads based on normal capacity
(iii) Finished goods: At material cost, conversion costs and an appropriate share of production overheads based
on normal capacity
(iv) Stock-in-trade: At purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and
condition However, materials and other items held for use in production of inventory are not written down below
cost, if the finished product in which they will be used are expected to be sold at or above cost.
368Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of
completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
xvi. Earnings and Expenditure in Foreign Currency
The company has earned no income in foreign currency during the period ended September 30, 2025 and financial
year ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.
Note: The Company had made a payment of ₹0.07 million in foreign currency towards booking of a motor vehicle.
During the period ended September 30, 2025, the Company received ₹0.85 million as refund of the advance earlier

369xviii. New and Amended Ind AS
(i) Ind AS 117 Insurance Contracts
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notified the Ind AS 117, Insurance Contracts, vide notification dated
12 August 2024, under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2024.
Ind AS 117 Insurance Contracts is a comprehensive new accounting standard for insurance contracts covering
recognition and measurement, presentation and disclosure. Ind AS 117 replaces Ind AS 104 Insurance Contracts.
Ind AS 117 applies to all types of insurance contracts, regardless of the type of entities that issue them as well as
to certain guarantees and financial instruments with discretionary participation features; a few scope exceptions
will apply. Ind AS 117 is based on a general model, supplemented by:
• A specific adaptation for contracts with direct participation features (the variable fee approach)
• A simplified approach (the premium allocation approach) mainly for short-duration contracts
The application of Ind AS 117 does not have a material impact on the Restated Standalone Financial Statements
as the Group has not entered any contracts in the nature of insurance contracts covered under Ind AS 117.
(ii) Amendments to Ind AS 116 Leases – Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback
The MCA notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Second Amendment Rules, 2024, which amend
Ind AS 116, Leases, with respect to Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback.
The amendment specifies the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale
and leaseback transaction, to ensure the seller-lessee does not recognise any amount of the gain or loss that relates
to the right of use it retains.
The amendment does not have a material impact on the Restated Standalone Financial Statements.
(iii) Amendments to Ind AS 21 - Lack of exchangeability
The MCA notified amendments to Ind AS 21 The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates to specify how an
entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when
exchangeability is lacking.
The amendments also require disclosure of information that enables users of its Ind AS financial statements to
understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency affects, or is expected to affect, the
entity’s financial performance, financial position and cash flows. The amendments are effective for annual
reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025. When applying the amendments, an entity cannot restate
comparative information.
The amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Restated Standalone Financial Statements.
(iv) Amendments to Ind AS 1 - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Non-current
Liabilities with Covenants
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified amendments to paragraphs 69 to 76 of Ind AS 1 Presentation of
Financial Statements to specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. The
amendments clarify:
• What is meant by a right to defer settlement
• That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period
• That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right
• That only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument would the
terms of a liability not impact its classification
370• In addition, a requirement has been introduced to require disclosure when a liability arising from a loan
agreement is classified as non-current and the entity’s right to defer settlement is contingent on
compliance with future covenants within twelve months. The amendments are effective for annual
reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025 and must be applied retrospectively. The Company
is currently assessing the impact the amendments will have on current practice and whether existing loan
agreements may require renegotiation.
(v) Amendments to Ind AS 7 and Ind AS 107 - Supplier Finance Arrangements
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified amendments to Ind AS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and Ind AS 107
Financial Instruments: Disclosures to clarify the characteristics of supplier finance arrangements and require
additional disclosure of such arrangements. The disclosure requirements in the amendments are intended to assist
users of financial statements in understanding the effects of supplier finance arrangements on an entity’s liabilities,
cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk.
The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025.
The amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Restated Standalone Financial
Statements.

NON-GAAP MEASURES
EBITDA and EBITDA Margin, (together, “Non-GAAP Measures”), presented in this Draft Red Herring
Prospectus is a supplemental measure of our performance and liquidity that is not required by, or presented in
accordance with, Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP. Further, these Non-GAAP Measures are not a measurement of our
financial performance or liquidity under Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or
construed as an alternative to cash flows, profit/ (loss) for the financial years/ period or any other measure of
financial performance or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows
generated by operating, investing or financing activities derived in accordance with Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP.
In addition, these Non-GAAP Measures are not standardised terms, hence a direct comparison of these Non-
GAAP Measures between companies may not be possible. Other companies may calculate these Non-GAAP
Measures differently from us, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Although such Non-GAAP
Measures are not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with applicable accounting standards, our
Company’s management believes that they are useful to an investor in evaluating us as they are widely used
measures to evaluate a company’s operating performance.

Statement of Assets and Liabilities
Notes:
1. Provision for Gratuity Expense & Actuarial Gain/Loss on Defined benefit Plan including Fair Value
of Plan Asset
The provision for gratuity expense for the period ended September 30, 2025 & financial years ended March
31, 2025, March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023 had not been previously created. The same has now been
recognized in accordance with the actuarial valuation reports obtained for the respective period/years.
Consequently, the impact of actuarial gains and losses on the defined benefit plan has been reinstated in the
Ind AS Restated Standalone Financial Statements. In accordance with Ind AS, all actuarial gains and losses
are recognized under Other Comprehensive Income. Further, benefits paid during the respective years have
been adjusted against the gratuity provision as per the actuarial valuation reports, and appropriate
adjustments have been incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements. Adjustments relating
to the fair value of plan assets have also been duly considered.
2. Impact of IND AS 116 Leases
For the purpose of preparation of Restated Standalone Financial Statements, the Company has adopted Ind
AS 116 : Leases from the date of transition i.e. April 01, 2023 and management has evaluated the impact
of change in accounting policies required due to adoption of Ind AS 116 for the period ended September 30,
2025 and financial years ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 and made the
necessary adjustments. The Company has adopted Ind AS 116 – Leases, which requires recognition of right-
of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities for all qualifying lease arrangements, other than short-term
leases and leases of low-value assets. Accordingly, right-of-use assets in respect of Leasehold Land have
been recognized, while the related lease liabilities are presented under Financial Liabilities. Lease payments
relating to short-term and low-value leases are recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss
on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The impact of recognition of right-of-use assets, lease liabilities, depreciation, and interest cost has been
duly incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the requirements of
Ind AS 116.
3. Deferred Tax
Under Previous GAAP, Deferred Tax is calculated using the income statement approach which focuses on
differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Under Ind AS 12, deferred tax is
calculated using balance sheet approach which focuses on difference between taxable profits and accounting
profits for the period. The application of Ind AS 12 approach has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on
374new temporary differences which was not required under IGAAP. In addition, the various transitional
adjustments has led to temporary differences. According to the accounting policies, the company has to
account for such differences. Deferred Tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to the transactions
either in retained earnings and profit and loss respectively.
4. Expected Credit Loss
Under Ind AS, the company has to provide loss allowance on Trade Receivables based on the Expected
Credit Loss (ECL) model which is measured following the "simplified approach". The Company uses an
provision matrix to measure the expected credit losses of trade receivables. The provision matrix is based
on its historical observed default rates, adjusted for forward looking estimates. The Company has impaired
its Trade Receivables by ₹ 0.10 million as on September 30, 2025, ₹ 0.13 million as on March 31, 2025, ₹
0.09 million as on March 31, 2024 and ₹ 0.07 million as on March 31, 2023 and its corresponding effect in
statement of profit and loss in the respective period/financial years and ₹ 0.06 million in the Retained
Earnings (opening balance) as on April 01, 2023.
5. Profit from Associates
The investment in associates is accounted for using the equity method in accordance with Ind AS 28 –
Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. Under this method, the investment is initially recognized at
cost and subsequently adjusted to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss after the date of
acquisition, as well as its share of other comprehensive income of the associate. Accordingly, the share of
profit / (loss) of associates has been reinstated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements. RCP
Distilleries (India) Private Limited became an associate of the Company on March 31, 2023, pursuant to the
acquisition of a 25% equity interest. Accordingly, the investment was accounted for using the equity method
in accordance with Ind AS 28 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, and the Company’s share of
profit/(loss) in the associate was recognized in the standalone Financial Statements. Since the Company
acquired a 25% equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited on March 31, 2023, only the share
of profit attributable for one day has been recognized in accordance with Ind AS 28.
Subsequently, on March 07, 2024, the Company’s equity interest in RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited
was reduced from 25% to 10%. Consequently, the Company no longer exercises significant influence over
RCP Distilleries (India) Private Limited, and the investment has been reclassified from “Investment in
Associate” to “Other Investments” in accordance with Ind AS requirements. Appropriate adjustments arising
from this reclassification have been duly incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements.
6. Interest on delayed payment on MSME
An Accounting Adjustment has been made where the Interest on Delayed Payment of MSME has been
shown in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements for the period ended September 30, 2025 of ₹ 1,028
and financial year ended March 31, 2025 of ₹ 21,452. Thus, the appropriate adjustment has been made in
the Restated Standalone Financial Statements for the period ended September 30, 2025 and financial year
ended March 31, 2025.
7. Accounting Adjustment of Depreciation & Profit on sale of PPE
Adjustments relating to depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and profit on sale of PPE have
been appropriately recognized in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements. Depreciation has been
recalculated in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment, based on
the useful lives and residual values of assets as determined by the management. Further, profit or loss arising
from the disposal of PPE has been adjusted by comparing the net sale proceeds with the carrying amount of
the respective assets, and the impact has been reflected in the Statement of Profit and Loss of the relevant
periods. These adjustments have been duly incorporated to present a true and fair view of the standalone
375financial position and performance.
8. Fair Value of Investments
The fair value of investments has been appropriately classified and recognized in Other Comprehensive
Income (OCI) in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments. Changes in fair
value of such investments designated at fair value through OCI have been presented under equity, and no
subsequent reclassification of these gains or losses to the Statement of Profit and Loss will be made upon
disposal of the investments. The related adjustments have been duly incorporated in the Restated Standalone
Financial Statements.
9. Fees paid to increase Authorised Share Capital
An accounting adjustment has been made in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements with respect to
fees paid for the increase in authorised share capital. In the Audited Financial Statement, such fees has been
presented under Reserves and Surplus. However, in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements, the same
is classified under Other Expenses within the head Fees and Subscription. The necessary reclassification has
been duly incorporated in the Restated Standalone Financial Statements to ensure proper presentation.
Part B: Material regrouping
Appropriate regroupings have been made in the Restated Ind AS Standalone Statement of Assets and Liabilities,
Restated Ind AS Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss and Restated Ind AS standalone Statement of Cash
Flows, wherever required, by reclassification of the corresponding items of income, expenses, assets, liabilities
and cash flows, in order to bring them in line with the accounting policies and classification as per Ind
AS financial information of the Company for the period ended September 30, 2025 and financial years
ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 prepared in accordance with Schedule III of
Companies Act, 2013, requirements of Ind AS 1 and other applicable Ind AS principles and the requirements
of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital & Disclosure Requirements) Regulations 2018,
as amended.
Part C: Non-Adjusting Items
There are no audit qualifications for the respective years, which do not require any adjustments in the Restated
Standalone Financial Statements.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS
The Company’s principal financial liabilities comprise loans, borrowings, lease liabilities and trade and other
payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company’s operations. The Company’s
principal financial assets include trade receivables, other financial assets and cash and cash equivalents that derive
directly from its operations.
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s senior management
oversees the management of these risks. The Company’s senior management ensures that the Company’s financial
risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured
and managed in accordance with the Company’s policies and risk objective. The Board of Directors reviews and
agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below.
393(a) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price
risk, such as equity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings.
-Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because
of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates
primarily to the Company’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. The Company manages its
interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate loans and borrowings. The Company’s
policy is to borrow funds at fixed and floating rate of interest.
Interest rate sensitivity
The following table illustrates the sensitivity of profit and equity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates
of +/- 1%. These changes are considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of current market
conditions. Sensitivity calculations are based on an annualised interest cost on the borrowings at floating rate as
of the reporting dates September 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and April 01, 2023. All other variables
are held constant.

Interest rates- decrease by 1% 0.08 0.66 0.53 0.78
-Foreign Currency Risk
A. Overall Exposure
The Company imports goods/services and, therefore, incurs foreign currency expenditure. The Company does not
have foreign currency earnings during the periods presented. At reporting dates, the Company does not have any
foreign currency monetary assets or liabilities, as all import payables were fully settled prior to the balance sheet
date for the period ended September 30, 2025 and financial year ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and
March 31, 2023. Accordingly, there is no outstanding foreign currency exposure requiring sensitivity analysis
under Ind AS 107.
B. Nature of Foreign Currency Transactions
The Company’s foreign currency exposure arises primarily from:
• Import of raw materials
• Payment of Fees & Subscription & Business Promotion Expenses
• All such payments were fully settled during the year.
C. Outstanding Foreign Currency Exposure
Since the Company has no outstanding FCY monetary assets or liabilities as at the reporting dates, the foreign
currency exposure is NIL.

E. Sensitivity Analysis
The Company has incurred foreign currency expenditure during the reporting period ended September 30, 2025
and March 31, 2025. However, the Company does not have any foreign currency monetary items outstanding at
the reporting dates. Accordingly, the Company is not exposed to any significant foreign currency risk as at period
ended September 30, 2025 and financial year ended March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 and no
sensitivity analysis has been presented. All foreign currency transactions have been accounted for in accordance
with Ind AS 21.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer
contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily
trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including investments, deposits with banks and financial
institutions and other financial instruments.
(i) Trade receivables
Customer credit risk is managed by the Company’s established policies, procedures and controls relating to
customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an individual credit limits and
are defined in accordance with management's assessment of the customer. Outstanding customer receivables are
regularly monitored. The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the fact that the customer base is large. An
impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses.
The Company uses ageing buckets and provision matrix for the purpose of computation of expected credit loss.
The provision rates are based on past trend of recoverability. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted
outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting
date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The Company makes
provision of expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix. The provision matrix is based
395on its historical observed default rates, adjusted for forward looking estimates. At every reporting date, the
historical observed default rates are updated and Company makes appropriate provision wherever outstanding is
for longer period and involves higher risk.
The movement in provision for expected credit loss for trade receivables are as follows:

Less: Utilised during the year
Balance as at September 30, 2025 0.45
Credit risk from balances with banks is managed by the management in accordance with the Company’s policy.
Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties based on limits defined by the
management. The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through
counterparty’s potential failure to make payments.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may encounter difficulty in meeting its present and future obligations
associated with financial liabilities that are required to be settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The
Company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of
bank overdrafts, bank loans and finance leases. The Company closely monitors its liquidity position and deploys
a robust cash management system. It aims to minimise these risks by generating sufficient cash flows from its
current operations, which in addition to the available cash and cash equivalents and sufficient committed fund
facilities, will provide liquidity. The liquidity risk is managed on the basis of expected maturity dates of the
financial liabilities. The carrying amounts are assumed to be reasonable approximation of fair value.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on contractual
undiscounted payments.

B) Capital management
For the purpose of the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, securities premium
and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders. The primary objective of the Company’s capital
management is to maximise the shareholder value. The Company manages its capital structure and makes
adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants. The
Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The

397SECTION VI – LEGAL AND OTHER INFORMATION
OUTSTANDING LITIGATIONS AND MATERIAL DEVELOPMENTS
Except as disclosed in this section, as on the date of this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, there are no outstanding
(i) criminal proceedings (including first information reports); (ii) actions taken by regulatory or statutory
authorities (including show cause notices); (iii) claims related to direct and indirect taxes in a consolidated
manner giving the number of cases and total amount involved; or (iv) other outstanding litigation/ arbitration
proceedings as determined to be material by our Board pursuant to the Materiality Policy, in accordance with the
SEBI ICDR Regulations, in each case involving our Company, our Promoters, and our Directors (collectively, the

involving our Group Companies, the adverse outcome of which may have a material impact on our Company.
For the purpose of disclosure of pending material litigation in (iv) above, our Board in its meeting held on
December 12, 2025 (“Materiality Policy”) has considered and adopted the Materiality Policy, in terms of which,
any outstanding litigation where the aggregate monetary amount of claim/ dispute amount/ liability involved

average of absolute value of profit or loss after tax, as per the Restated Standalone Financial Information of our
Company for the last three Fiscals, being ₹ 5.75 million. Accordingly, litigations which involve an amount of ₹
5.75 million, being the amount equivalent to 5% of the average of absolute value of the profit/ loss after tax of our
Company for the preceding three financial years as per the Restated Standalone Financial Information
(“Materiality Threshold”), would be considered ‘material’.
Further, where the monetary liability is not quantifiable, the matter is considered material in view of its potential
impact on our business, operations, prospects, or reputation.
Further, notices received from third parties (excluding statutory/regulatory/tax authorities or notices threatening
criminal action) have not been evaluated for materiality until such time that any of the Relevant Parties are
impleaded as defendants in litigation proceedings before a judicial forum.
Further, litigation/ arbitration proceedings where the decision in one case is likely to affect the decision in similar
cases, even though the amount involved in an individual litigation may not exceed the Materiality Threshold shall
also be considered material litigation in relation to the Relevant Parties.
Further, any outstanding civil litigation/ arbitration proceedings involving the Relevant Parties wherein the
monetary liability is not quantifiable, or does not exceed the Materiality Threshold, shall be considered ‘material’
and shall be disclosed in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus, if the outcome of such litigation could have a material
adverse effect on the business, operations, performance, prospects, financial position or reputation of our
Company.
Further, any findings/observations of any inspections by SEBI or any other regulator involving the Relevant
Parties, which are material, and which need to be disclosed, or non-disclosure of which may have bearing on the
investment decision in relation to the Offer will be disclosed.

notices from statutory, regulatory or tax authorities or notices threatening criminal action) shall not be evaluated
for materiality until such persons are impleaded as defendants or respondents in proceedings before any
judicial/arbitral forum or is notified by any governmental, statutory, or regulatory authority of any such

the Materiality Policy, outstanding dues to any creditor of our Company having a monetary value which is equal
to or exceeds five percent of the Company’s trade payables based on the latest Restated Standalone Financial
Information, shall be considered as ‘material’. Accordingly, as on September 30, 2025, any outstanding dues
exceeding ₹ 3.82 million have been considered as material outstanding dues for the purposes of identification of
material creditors and related information in this section.

Working Days. The timeline was applicable on a voluntary basis for public issues opening on or after September
01, 2023, and has been made applicable on a mandatory basis for public issues opening on or after December 01,
2023. Considering the time required for making necessary changes to the systems and to ensure complete and

phases in the following manner:
Phase I: This phase was applicable from January 01, 2019, until March 31, 2019, or the floating of five main
board public Offers, whichever was later. Subsequently, the timeline for implementation of Phase I was extended

closure to listing to be six Working Days.
Phase II: This phase became applicable from July 01, 2019. and was to initially continue for a period of three
months or floating of five main board public issues, whichever was later. The SEBI ICDR Master Circular
extended the timeline for implementation of UPI Phase II until further notice. Under this phase, submission of the
ASBA Form by RIIs through Designated Intermediaries (other than SCSBs) to SCSBs for blocking of funds was
discontinued and replaced by the UPI payment Mechanism. However, the time duration from public Offer closure
to listing continued to be six Working Days during this phase.
Phase III: This phase had become applicable on a voluntary basis for all Offers opening on or after September
01, 2023; and has become applicable on a mandatory on or after December 01, 2023, vide the SEBI ICDR Master
